Sync shortcuts on iPhone or iPad
If you’re signed in with your Apple ID on your Apple devices and enable iCloud Sync in the Shortcuts app, you can keep your collection of shortcuts up to date on all your devices, including your Apple Watch. When you add, change or remove a shortcut from one of your devices, iCloud ensures that the changes are reflected on your other devices automatically.
The order of your shortcuts is also kept updated between all your devices.
Important: Personal automation shortcuts don’t sync to other devices.
Turn on iCloud Sync
On your iOS or iPadOS device, go to Settings >
