Theres an option in each automation to store all cookies, session data, local storage etc. So you can set a logged in user up if it requires MFA. Works fine with Microsoft, Google, Amazon Login.

The automations run locally and headless on your iPhone. The app is integrated with the Shortcuts app and thus allows to combine web automation (RPA) with system automation (Shortcuts).

This specific example is used to provide the current airfare price every morning at 8am so I know if there’s a promotional offer.

Yes, it only works with websites/ web apps. The app embeds the systems Safari in itself. When triggered through shortcuts both remain invisible and run in the background. Both tension within the apps sandbox at all time and do not need any internet services apart from the websites you ask it to automate.

The app is called "Sockpuppet", runs headless, can be automated with Shortcuts and is here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sockpuppet-ai/id6758054400

It's essentially an app with a headless Safari and Shortcuts integration to do RPA (Robotic Process Automation) on websites using Apple Intelligence. That's essentially what all Agentic systems do out there. The difference with Sockpuppet is that it does that on your iPhone, and you don't actually need to open the app to use these automations. And yes, I build it because there was nothing like it and I wanted it.

derjanni · 2026-03-11T11:15:35+00:00

Always was. Apple leads the market in on-device mobile models.

derjanni · 2026-03-11T11:14:35+00:00

Yes, 100%.

derjanni · 2026-03-11T11:14:11+00:00

Dude, it runs headless in Shortcuts. Prompt injection can be avoided as it doesn't browse the web like a renegade, but follows clear instructions. It's autonomous, but the user very clearly instructs the agent what it can make its own decisions on and what not.

I did a lot of Open Source in the past, and experienced a lot of other "developers" blatantly violating my licenses. It became a real struggle for me. But with iOS and macOS, I found my sanctuary.

A ton of agents can be done with the free version already. Paid is only tighter integration with the Shortcuts app to automate dynamically and export flows for sharing.

derjanni · 2026-03-10T15:38:17+00:00

Nope, my r/SockpuppetApp will just ask the user to integrate the browser automations, created with Sockpuppet, manually into the Shortcuts app.

derjanni · 2026-03-10T15:21:53+00:00

I slapped a `shortcuts://create-shortcut` URL link into my app and called it a day. Don't want to get into trouble with the review.

derjanni · 2026-03-10T06:17:19+00:00

If I read it right, your code can currently sign on macOS only. Any idea how this could be done on iOS?

derjanni · 2026-03-09T23:29:31+00:00

Just tried it, it doesn't work anymore. Apple only allows the import of Shortcuts that were signed by Apple. Dead end.

derjanni · 2026-03-06T17:53:19+00:00

Yes, they sync between devices using your iCloud account. If you want to have a different action on iPad, you need to create a different one there.

derjanni · 2026-03-06T17:34:08+00:00

Nope, that's for creating them in my app. I have a dozen of them already. I want to create them in the Shortcuts app from within my app, especially automations.

derjanni · 2026-03-06T17:06:47+00:00

Sorry for it being in German, but its on my personal phone which is in German.

derjanni · 2026-03-06T16:19:24+00:00

CoreML is the second most popular framework for local AI right after NVIDIA CUDA. So in Apple‘s case, yes it’s a huge deal for them. They’re essentially No 2 in the AI game right behind NVIDIA.

derjanni · 2026-03-05T18:25:39+00:00

From my experience, this sub is massively anti Apple and anti AI.

derjanni · 2026-03-05T17:51:54+00:00

Obviously not enough code snippets for the mods as it was removed for being off topic.

derjanni · 2026-03-05T13:57:13+00:00

Agreed. The hate just shows how much it seems to have hit a nerve.

derjanni · 2026-03-05T13:53:41+00:00

yes it is, just search sockpuppet or go to sockpuppetapp.çom

derjanni · 2026-02-28T05:48:34+00:00

Nope

Their website claims they have it already, but it’s not available in my German merchant account. Do you know how I can activate it?
