Run Shortcuts every hour, in 45 minutes, or on the last Friday of the month — local, private, no subscription. Run your Shortcuts on a schedule — in 45 minutes, every hour, weekdays at 17:00 or on the last Friday of the month. Shortcuts can already run things at a fixed time of day. Cronlet adds what's missing: intervals, one-off delays, time windows and monthly schedules, with a clear list of what runs next. SCHEDULE • Once: “in 15 / 30 / 45 / 60 minutes” or at any date and time • Daily: one or more times, on the weekdays you choose • Interval: every 5 minutes up to every 12 hours, optionally only between e.g. 08:00 and 18:00 on weekdays • Monthly: on chosen days, on the last day, or e.g. on the first Monday • Every few days or weeks • Stop automatically after a number of runs or on a date STAY IN CONTROL • Next run for every job at a glance • Pause and resume, Run Now • Upcoming runs and a local run history • Pick shortcuts from a searchable list — or type their names • A warning if your automation missed a run WIDGETS, CONTROL CENTER AND SIRI • Next Runs widget for the Home Screen and Lock Screen • A Control Center button that runs a job's shortcut once in a few minutes • Ask Siri to run, pause or resume a job; find your jobs in Spotlight ONE AUTOMATION FOR ALL JOBS Cronlet sends a notification when a job is due. A single Shortcuts automation reacts to it and runs the right shortcut. The in-app guide walks you through it once — after that, you only add jobs in Cronlet. SHORTCUTS ACTIONS • Get Due Shortcut — used by the automation • Schedule Shortcut — “run this in 30 minutes” from inside any shortcut • Run Job Later, Run Cronlet Job Now, Pause and Resume a job • Pause All Cronlet Jobs BACKUP Export your jobs to a file and import them again. No account needed. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no server, no tracking. Everything stays on your iPhone. FREE AND PRO Free: up to 3 active jobs — once, daily and hourly. Cronlet Pro (one-time purchase, no subscription): unlimited jobs, any interval, time windows, several times per day, monthly and every-few-days schedules, automatic end, input text for your shortcuts and full history. Requires iOS 27 or later for notification-triggered automations. Without the automation, tap a Cronlet notification to run the shortcut.
