About AI Actions

AI Actions is a versatile and powerful app designed to enhance the capabilities of the Shortcuts app with additional AI-related actions such as GPT-4, GPT-4o, and GPT 3.5. By integrating seamlessly with the ChatGPT API, users can effortlessly create and execute complex workflows, bringing a new level of automation and intelligence to their daily tasks. The requirement to input your own OpenAI API key ensures that your data remains secure, as the key is stored securely in your keychain instead of the shortcut itself. One of the standout features of AI Actions is its compatibility with both macOS and iOS platforms. While the macOS version available from the App Store is optimized for Apple silicon Macs, users with Intel Macs can still enjoy the app by downloading the non-App Store version. This flexibility ensures that a wide range of users can benefit from the app’s functionalities, regardless of their device’s architecture. Additionally, the app supports advanced AI functionalities like DALL·E, offering even more creative possibilities. AI Actions is an excellent alternative to the official ChatGPT app, offering unique advantages such as support for longer text, customizability options for power users, and a commitment to expanding support for more AI APIs in the future. It simplifies the process of integrating AI into your shortcuts while ensuring the security of your API keys, making it a superior choice for both casual users and tech enthusiasts alike. With AI Actions, you can unlock the full potential of AI-driven automation and elevate your productivity to new heights.

FAQs

How is this better than the “Ask ChatGPT” action provided by the official ChatGPT app?
This one works on macOS too, supports longer text, has customizability options for power-users, supports DALL·E, and will support more AI APIs in the future.
How is this better than just calling the OpenAI API directly from Shortcuts?
This makes it simpler, but more importantly, it stores your API key securely in the keychain. This means you can share your shortcuts to others without exposing your API key. The API key is not stored in the shortcut.
Why does the macOS App Store version require an Apple silicon Mac?
Apple only accepted the iOS version of the app, which runs on Apple silicon Macs. Intel Mac users need to use the non-App Store version.
What if the AI actions do not show up in the Shortcuts app?
This is a known iOS/macOS bug. Launch the app once and then restart your device. If that doesn’t work, try other troubleshooting steps provided by the developer.
Can you support the OpenAI Whisper API?
No, due to Shortcuts’ 30-second limit on third-party actions on iOS, long transcriptions are not possible. Instead, use the Aiko app, which runs Whisper locally on your device.
Why are these actions not just part of your Actions app?
Apple prevents any app that includes AI functionality from being available in China. Separating the AI features ensures the main Actions app remains accessible in China.
Is the non-App Store version updated automatically?
No, it does not receive automatic updates. The developer updates it once a year.
Can you add more AI APIs in the future?
Yes, the app will support more AI APIs in future updates.
Why is the app free without ads?
The developer enjoys making apps and asks users to consider leaving a positive review on the App Store.
Can you localize the app into my language?
No, the developer does not plan to localize the app.
