How To Do Shortcuts On Iphone

If you have a large collection of shortcuts, either that you've added to your library from the gallery or an external source, or that you've created on your own, you might be wondering how you can get a handle on them. Well, Shortcuts makes it easy to rearrange, delete, and even duplicate your shortcuts, all with a few taps.

Likewise, it's also easy to manage options like having a shortcut appear on (or disappear from) the Shortcuts widget that appears in the Today view, as well as the share sheet that you use when you want to share content in other apps.
