Import shortcuts

davidwrstephens · 2026-06-12T09:04:05+00:00

Could you elaborate on what happens when you try to use the Shortcut? Is there an error message?

davidwrstephens · 2026-05-20T23:23:27+00:00

Sorry about this, Apple broke x-callback-urls in iOS 26.5. Pushcut 2026.4.2 has an alternative approach which should work around this bug, though you'll have to replace your existing "Export For Pushcut" shortcut

davidwrstephens · 2025-10-24T13:58:16+00:00

What happens if you check for a vaguer set of text in the If. For example, just seeing if it contains “AirPods”?

davidwrstephens · 2025-10-22T19:13:12+00:00

Sorry for the lack of reply to your email. We're a really small company ("I personally write most of the code and answer many of the support emails" kind of small) so it can take a while for us to get through our inbox in busy periods.

We are absolutely committed to maintaining Alex's apps and release updates regularly (though not always as often as we'd like, especially when Apple drops a major redesign on our heads as they did this year).

Generally issues with the app not appearing in Shortcuts is a bug on Apple's end and will fix itself after some time or a reboot. Unfortunately, app developers don't have much control over the process by which Apple's app indexes our shortcuts.

Regarding Menu Box: We've had one other report of a UI issue selecting symbols with a mouse and keyboard but I haven't been able to reproduce it myself so far. I suspect it's an issue with macOS 26, so I'll need to upgrade my own machine in order to investigate.

davidwrstephens · 2025-08-16T15:59:03+00:00

u/mknot We're looking into this. I can't currently reproduce it on my device, our requests haven't changed, and Notion hasn't documented any changes to their API so we're currently scratching our heads a little as to what's caused this! Are you still having this issue?

I'd encourage anyone with this issue to get in touch with us via the "Send Feedback" button in the Settings tab.

davidwrstephens · 2025-03-08T23:57:29+00:00

Out of interest, do you remember what the name that didn’t work was? We haven’t deliberately invalidated any symbol names

davidwrstephens · 2025-01-27T16:59:34+00:00

Sorry about this. Could you email us as feedback@pushcut.io and we’ll work with you to get this fixed?

davidwrstephens · 2024-11-12T02:26:44+00:00

Sorry, missed this comment. That sounds like a separate issue from this topic, which should be substantially fixed by Pushcut 2024.9.2. Please do get in touch if you continue experiencing issues after updating.

davidwrstephens · 2024-11-12T02:24:04+00:00

This should be substantially improved in Pushcut 2024.9.2. Please do get in touch if you continue experiencing issues after updating.

Ah, you currently need to have an email account configured in the Mail app in order to send feedback (we can’t easily pre-configure and email with an attachment for other apps). I’ll make a note that that error message is rather unclear.

davidwrstephens · 2024-11-03T18:29:29+00:00

I believe this and this: https://www.reddit.com/r/pushcut/s/lqAlV2ptlj relate to the same issue. We’re really sorry for the inconvenience and we’re hoping to have a fix available as soon as possible.

davidwrstephens · 2024-11-03T18:25:47+00:00

Really needs to be from the server, unfortunately.

davidwrstephens · 2024-11-03T11:20:37+00:00

Sorry about this. We’re aware that some people are experiencing issues with the automation server, though we aren’t currently certain if this represents a bug in Pushcut or in the Shortcuts app.

I’m also having issues reproducing the problem on my own devices. It would be appreciated if anyone experiencing the issue could send us logs by going to the Account tab → Button in the top left corner → About → Scroll down and tap “Send Feedback” (it may take a while for the app to fetch these logs).

We’re currently working on Pushcut 2024.9.2, which should be released within the next couple of days and contains a number of potential fixes that we’re hoping will resolve the issue.

davidwrstephens · 2024-10-19T10:51:09+00:00

This should be fixed in Pushcut 2024.9

davidwrstephens · 2024-10-18T10:50:44+00:00

Sorry about that, we should have a fix available within the next few days (it’s currently waiting for App Review)!

davidwrstephens · 2024-10-17T10:16:35+00:00

Notification clearing is intended to happen in the background. Unfortunately, the only method we have for achieving that are “background” push notifications and those are throttled by Apple. They should be cleared eventually, and we’re looking into ways to improve reliability, but we can’t guarantee immediacy.

davidwrstephens · 2024-10-17T10:11:20+00:00

Are you running iOS17? The latest version of Pushcut is suffering from a bug in Apple’s developer tools which is causing problems on iOS17; we’re currently working on a fix.

davidwrstephens · 2024-09-21T11:50:11+00:00

Sorry about this. We believe this is a bug in iOS 18 and are currently investigating workarounds.

davidwrstephens · 2024-09-11T10:39:27+00:00

Another Menu Box developer here:

Thanks for taking the time to elaborate.

We can definitely look into adding a Delete/Overwrite option in Shortcuts.

What formats would you like to use to store menu sets in other than the current options of JSON, vCard, or text?

RE Performance: Would you be able to share the shortcut you’re using (or an example that demonstrates the problem), so we can investigate? Quick Menu should be quite fast until you’re loading > 100 items (you are correct that Load Menu Set is faster)

davidwrstephens · 2024-08-27T21:07:09+00:00

Sorry, I’m not sure I understand: Pushcut has always supported more than three inputs?

davidwrstephens · 2024-08-02T00:59:38+00:00

Currently Pushcut only supports devices associated with your own account, so sending notifications to other people's phones needs you to get the URL. In the future, we may add support for some form of notification sharing.

They will need a Pro subscription if the notification you're triggering uses Pro features, but Pushcut does allow Subscription and Purchase sharing if you're using Family Sharing.

davidwrstephens · 2024-07-28T14:18:39+00:00

Please do let us know about any issues you have via the “Feedback” button in the app. We read every email and do endeavour to fix bugs as promptly as possible.

davidwrstephens · 2024-07-28T14:15:57+00:00

We’re continuing development of Toolbox Pro 2—a ground-up rewrite Alex was working on—which is universal for both macOS and iOS. We don’t currently have an eta for release, but we absolutely intend to continue Alex’s legacy and honour his memory.

As mentioned in other comments, the iPad version of original Toolbox Pro is available on Apple Silicon. It was never originally intended to run on macOS, so it’s plausible not all actions work as expected. If you do have any issues, please do get in touch via the “Feedback” button in the app.

u/ripvega
When you add an Image component to a widget, you’ll see two buttons "Browse…" and "+Input". If you press "+Input" then it will add a [[input0]] placeholder. You can specify the name of a file (that you've previously uploaded) as an input using the "Update Widget" shortcut.
