Shortcuts app allowing more background automations (i.imgur.com)

The automation in the screenshot would only prompt me to run the shortcut in iOS 16, but now has the option to run automatically in iOS 17.

FYI, this automation is great for my kids iPad. It seems to automatically connect when I leave the house, but then everything reconnects to WiFi when I get home. Loving it.

When any message with some contents is received - Right now this is limited to a list of contacts. I'd like to have a shortcut where someone could text me, "Where are you?" and it'll just auto-send my location.

You can already do this! Just leave the Sender field on "Choose" and fill out the Message Contains field only.
