Utilities
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Automate repetitive tasks with smart shortcuts. Save time, every day.
BetterAutomation makes the Shortcuts app stronger: it delivers a whole toolbox of actions Apple doesn't include – ready to use in your shortcuts and personal automations (time, location, NFC, Focus, charging and more).
ACTIONS FOR YOUR AUTOMATIONS
• Text: uppercase/lowercase, title case, reverse, count words and characters, trim, find & replace, sort lines, remove duplicate lines and emoji
• Encoding: encode and decode Base64, create URL slugs, calculate SHA-256 hashes
• Extract: pull links, email addresses and numbers from any text
• Date & Time: add days, differences and countdowns, weekday, week number, weekend check, next workday, calculate age, format date
• Math: percentages, add and remove VAT, split tips fairly, round
• Units: kilometers ↔ miles, kilograms ↔ pounds, Celsius ↔ Fahrenheit
• Random: random numbers, dice, coin flip, secure passwords, UUIDs, random colors
• Colors: convert hex values to RGB
RECIPES TO BUILD
Ready-made automation ideas with step-by-step instructions – from a morning briefing to a battery saver to an automatic end-of-day message. Every recipe shows the trigger, the steps, and the matching actions.
PREMIUM – BUY ONCE, KEEP FOREVER
Unlock every recipe and use the app completely ad-free. No subscription.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
All actions run directly on your device. No accounts, no cloud, no data collection by the app.
Note: BetterAutomation extends Apple's Shortcuts app. You set up automations in Shortcuts as usual – BetterAutomation provides the actions and the instructions for them.
