iOS 26.4 further buried the App Store’s Updates section. 😡

Here’s a Shortcut to go to there. Add it as a Home Screen icon to replace App Store.app. (I think it’ll probably work with older versions too.)

(Edit: updated the link to point to an improved version of the shortcut.)

@kolpanik This is awesome, and thank you.

It’s too bad there isn’t a way to automate the pull-down-to-refresh in there too. It’s always necessary, in my experience. (*Is* there a way to automate that??)

@abrahamson Not on iOS AFAIK. Shortcuts can’t do UI automation. (It’s possible on macOS via AppleScript actions.)

@kolpanik Oh, I was never thinking that Shortcuts would manipulate the UI; I was hoping the command could be sent to the app via some cryptic url scheme (because why would Apple actually make a complete suite of Shortcut actions for an app? That’d be silly. 🤦🏻‍♂️)

@abrahamson Oh, I misunderstood.

I found the URL at https://github.com/bhagyas/app-urls. I don’t see anything like that there.
