Despite my love for automating everything, for some reason I never really started using Shortcuts on macOS. It seems like a super advanced built-in tool for automating system tasks, but it just didn’t click for me.

That said, I can understand users who actively work with this app. And those users will likely notice the absence of some useful triggers for executing commands.

That’s exactly who the app [**Shortcutie**](https://sindresorhus.com/shortcutie) is for—it adds even more useful actions to Shortcuts. To see the full list, after installing the app, simply type “Shortcutie” in the list of commands.

In the list that opens, you’ll find several dozen new commands that allow you to automate various tasks. Some of the most interesting include:

- **Get Active Browser** — retrieves the URL of the current browser tab.
- **Run JavaScript on Active Browser Tab** — runs JavaScript in the current browser tab.
- **Open URLs in Private Browser Window** — opens URLs in a private tab.
- **Get Active Browser** — gets the currently active browser.
- **Get Selected Text** — retrieves the selected text.
- **Join Wi-Fi** — connects to a Wi-Fi network.
- **Clear Top Notification** — clears the visible notification.
- **Clear Notifications** — clears all system notifications.
- And much, much more.

After choosing a trigger, you can build your desired set of actions as usual

### Pricing

Shortcutie doesn’t offer a trial period, and the app’s price depends on the country of purchase. For example, in Russia, a license costs $5.36 instead of $8.
