hi all I tried to map the shortcuts button to unlock/lock my smart lock thought HomeKit. It's working, except when I press it there's a confirmation whether I do want to execute it or not. Is there anyway I can have it JUST do it w/out the confirmation? Was thinking even if the phone is in my pocket I can squeeze the action btn and lock/unlock. But if I need to confirm every time then it makes it less convenient / quick. Thanks!
 
There used to be a setting but may have changed or renamed called “Ask before Running” and you could disable it. I’m not able to find but the shortcut automations you can run immediately without confirmation.
  • Settings>Shortcuts>Advanced>Allow Running Scripts
  • Shortcuts>select a shortcut by tapping on … and tap (i) below>Privacy>Allow Running When Locked>Enable
Give it a try.
