Action proposal: Close Today View [iOS/iPadOS]

Description

Hello @sindresorhus !!!!

My Action Proposal is about a new shortcut action to manage the iOS/iPadOS Today View

Today View is the name of the window that appears when you swipe right from the left edge of the Home Screen, then scroll up and down.

As you can see from the image I run a lot of Shortcuts from this view to save some space from my Home View

Running Shortcuts from Today View

The problem between Today View and Shortcut Widgets is that I can't close/hide the Today View while running a shortcut.

In other words, when I return to the iOS main screen the Today View is still open instead of the Home View. This way I have to manually swipe left to hide the today view again.

I tried to solve this issue by using the native action Go to Home Screen but unfortunately, does not close/hide the Today View.

My FR

A new action that closes the Today View. That is it ๐Ÿ™

If you want to solve all issues from this feature would be 3 new actions:

  • Open Today View
  • Close Today View
  • Toggle Today View

Maybe this information might be useful: the shortcut action that I am requesting in this FR is the same behavior that we have when hitting โŒ˜H on iPadOS using an external keyboard


Thanks for reading this !!!!! I hope you like my suggestion ๐Ÿ™ ๐Ÿ™ ๐Ÿ™

Let me know if you need more information !!!

Have a great day ๐ŸŒž

This is unfortunately not possible. I encourage you to send feedback to Apple about making an action for this: https://feedbackassistant.apple.com
