All the automation triggers in the Shortcuts app work without requiring confirmation before running 🥳

I am most excited about better support for PWA (Web Apps).

As a developer, this allows me to write an application once that works well across all platforms. Plus, it allows me to distribute without having to go through the Apple Store or pay the Apple Tax.

As a user, this gives me much more control over my applications. It is much easier to block tracking scripts inside of web applications and limit permissions than it is for a native application.

Does this mean we could finally get ublock levels of adblocking?

I recently switched from an Android phone and the only thing I really miss is ways to automatically adjust settings, mostly volumes. I’ve tried with Automations (can’t adjust the ringer volume, can’t run silently based on time?) and with Focuses (will only do a few of the things I want). Vibrate-only during work hours, vibrate and a dim screen at night, bright screen and low volume in the early morning, is that so hard Apple?

How is the general experience compared to Android? I've been considering switching myself heheh
