Anyone familiar with Shortcuts/automations on Apple Watch? I'm trying to create two that will turn up the volume on my headphones when I end a run, and another that will turn it down when I start to run. Alternatively they could adjust volume when I listen to podcasts (up) vs music (down).

I've read up on shortcuts & it seems like the only way to make them (if I understand the process correctly) is to create them on your phone & then you either transfer over the ones that you'd like to use on the watch (or they transfer automatically- different tutorials have told me different things). But I don't see any way to move them to the watch & they definitely didn't transfer automatically.

Thanks in advance.

For each Shortcut, open it, tap on info icon/tab/button at the bottom of the screen, Details, Show on Apple Watch.
