Best app ever for scripting
Best app ever. I would love to see a new update. Without this app Shortcuts couldn't handle anything, but this app can do more!
Description
Scriptable is an automation tool that enables you to write scripts that integrates with native features of iOS such as files, calendars, reminders, documents and much more.
An extensive support for widgets enables you to write your own widgets using JavaScript and run the scripts on your Home Screen. Your widgets can show any data and be customised to look just the way you want.
With Siri Shortcuts you can present images, tables and more in Siri as well as making Siri read out loud a text when you run a script from a Siri Shortcut.
There's a growing gallery of scripts to get you started with Scriptable.
Here’s a few examples of scripts you can create:
- Ask Siri whether a web service is down.
- Create a widget that shows data from your weather station.
- Postpone the next event in your calendar half an hour.
- Check what is currently on TV.
- Manage a list of movies you would like to watch.
- Upload files to an image optimizer and store a URL to the optimized image.
- Receive a notification with the weather report every morning.
- Create todos with prefilled data in your favorite todo app using URL schemes.
Features include:
- Write and run JavaScript.
- Auto complete of variable names, functions, keywords and properties as you type.
- Access lots of native iOS features from your JavaScript code, including managing files, calendars, reminders, contacts, photos, location, pasteboard, web views and more.

Amazing App
Have pythonista, pyto and a few other paid scripting apps. This is an awesome app, free and also great if you want to learn JS!
Almost Great
Just learning about automation, this is opening up huge possibilities for me. Much better programming interface than Shortcuts for more complicated tasks. Only probs are some bugs to iron out: the Reminders Due Today has some variable scope issues which crashed & gave me a crash course in the scripting language to figure it out; I made “text” a global variable since it was defined in a subroutine but used outside of it, and made a unique instance of “reminder” every time through the reminders loop so each reminder handler would point to its own reminder not just the latest one. Also, the Reminders scheduling for a script crashes whenever I try to change the date/time. Thanks for Scriptable! So useful! Will tip!
Great
Really helpful for doing things that Shortcuts can’t do, like marking reminders as complete/incomplete! I like how it provides a nice JS Interface for the native Swift/Obj-C APIs. The customisable editor and the code suggestions are also very nice.
