Shortcuts has really taken off in the last year or two on iOS and I think it provides the most user-friendly way of creating a button that automates something tedious. Certainly a lot of its popularity is owed to the ability to create custom Home Screen app icons with iOS 14, but it's great if that was the spark that encouraged people to explore how they can automate their devices. Later this year Shortcuts will finally arrive on macOS as well—I bet it will get a lot more use than Automator or AppleScript does.
