Create Posts Anywhere with Apple Shortcuts: Your Pocket Content Studio

Imagine creating professional social media posts while walking your dog, waiting in line for coffee, or even during your commute. With Thoth's Apple Shortcuts integration, your iPhone becomes a powerful content creation studio that fits right in your pocket.
What is Apple Shortcuts?
Apple Shortcuts is a built-in app on your iPhone and iPad that lets you create custom automations. Think of it as a way to teach your phone new tricks – like asking Siri to create a social media post that gets automatically enhanced and optimized for all your platforms.
You don't need to be tech-savvy to use it. If you can talk to Siri, you can create amazing content with Thoth.
