Shortcuts is the most useful and frustrating app on my phone. I have tons of Shortcuts. They're excellent when they work. It's extremely frustrating when they don't. Maybe your Shortcut uses an action that is no longer available in the version of iOS you updated to (and wasn't marked as deprecated in the changelog). Maybe the app that the action relies on send an unusual response, which Shortcuts won't tell you because it's way of error handling is "leave the user more confused than they started with". Maybe Shortcuts decided to just keep itself running in the background forever for no reason (which is even more frustrating given that apps like Music will get killed by the memory manager _WHILE THEY'RE PLAYING MUSIC_, something that should never happen on the latest iPhone). Despite it's shortcomings, it's still better and a hell of a lot easier to use than Tasker, it's third-party equivalent on Android (because it, surprisingly, doesn't have an automation tool built-in).
