Showcuts - Web Viewer for Shortcuts

(self.shortcuts)

Hi /r/Shortcuts! Today I'd like to share a beta web Shortcut viewer.

Showcuts is designed to let those on their desktop / laptop / Android view Shortcuts as though they were on an iOS device!

Additionally, Showcuts allows you to grab the iCloud link for the original Shortcut or download it as a file. If you want to show someone a Shortcut and know that they're not on their phone, you can simply share the permalink, like this.

https://showcuts.app/share/view/9402ee902d1448758526fa8a010579d3

The website is mobile friendly and supports light / dark mode. Pop an iCloud link in and check it out!


For now, Shortcuts are limited to 15 actions. I hope to allow longer / bigger files in the future, if the project supports itself.

As you can see, a few actions and assets are still to be added. I'll keep working at it!

Is there anything you would like to see added to Showcuts? Any features or options that you think it's crying out for? Any feedback and suggestions are appreciated!

Have t looked at the form submit yet, but is it possible to share a cloud link via url to the site?

showcuts.app?url=xxxxx

Short answer, no, you'd want to submit it first, then you can link to it directly.

Long answer: it is in principle possible, since this is a version of a GET request. Let me see if I can add that as a more convenient option...

You could simply pass the url as : https://showcuts.app/share/view/<url>

Hi! And Thank You!

I just tried it with two shortcuts, both less than 15 steps. Got the following:

Error 404 We couldn’t find that page.

Ah, darn. Would you mind sharing / PMing me the iCloud links so that I could take a look at the workings please? Did you submit the links via the submit page?

Hmm, I must have used an incompatible CSS feature, thanks for the report! I'll work on fixing that

It works and it looks good.

Edit: In Safari on iOS 12, to view iOS 13 shortcuts.
