iOS 27 lets Shortcuts build automations with plain English and voice

Apple overhauled the Shortcuts app in iOS 27: automations can now be created with plain-English phrases and voice dictation, without menus or scripting. The app gets a redesigned interface plus VoiceOver and larger-text support.

• Shortcuts are created with phrases like "send my team a good morning message"
• Voice dictation lets users set up automations hands-free
• Redesigned interface adds VoiceOver and larger text options
• Supports automating smart home, notifications and device modes
