# Any Shortcut Launcher | Shortcuts Library > Run any shortcut without closing the app you're using. Organize shortcuts for a tidy share sheet. ## What this shortcut does INTRODUCTION Any Shortcut Launcher is a powerful and versatile shortcut that revolutionizes the way you access your shortcuts. With integration into the Action Button (for iPhone 15 series) or the Back Tap feature (for iPhone 14 series and older), Any Shortcut Launcher allows you to run any shortcut from your list without leaving the app you are currently using. Quick Access to Favorite Shortcuts: Set the source folder to a "Favorite Shortcuts" folder containing your most frequently used shortcuts for quick access to these shortcuts whenever you need them. Search Functionality: If the desired shortcut is not in the "Favorite Shortcuts" folder, you can quickly find it using the search function that scans your entire library of all shortcuts. Note: The search function is case-sensitive. At the bottom of the search results list, an option to return to the menu is provided. If you don't find what you're looking for, this option allows you to easily perform a new search or browse the shortcut menu without having to manually restart this shortcut. When no results are found, users can choose to return to the menu or exit the shortcut. Much Better AssistiveTouch: Appears only when needed (can be triggered using the Action Button or Back Tap), unlike AssistiveTouch, which always remains visible on the screen (even as a faint circle the size of a fingertip) and therefore can obstruct the view. Offers unlimited slots for your shortcuts compared to the mere 8 slots provided by AssistiveTouch. With the power of shortcuts, any function that AssistiveTouch has, Any Shortcut Launcher can have too, and even more. It has a search feature that allows you to find the shortcut you need within all the shortcuts in your library, whereas AssistiveTouch does not. Organized Share Sheet with Shortcut Categorization: Duplicate Any Shortcut Launcher and rename the copies to suit your needs (e.g., "Image Shortcuts", "Text Shortcuts"). Set up the source folders for the copies to access shortcuts (now organized by category) in the share sheet, making it tidier. Instead of searching for a specific shortcut among a sea of unrelated ones in the share sheet, categorizing them allows you to quickly and easily find the shortcut you need within a list of similar ones. Using Countless Functionalities Without Closing the App You Are Using: Access your shortcuts without leaving (and therefore pausing) the app or game you are currently using. Helpful in Guided Access: Works seamlessly within Guided Access mode, allowing you to access your shortcuts even when the home bar is hidden. Comprehensive Input Support: Supports all types of input for the "Run Shortcut" action, providing maximum flexibility and compatibility with various shortcuts. HOW TO USE -- Setting Up -- For iPhone 15 series: Access the 'Action Button' setting in your iOS Settings app. Select 'Shortcut' and choose Any Shortcut Launcher . For iPhone 14 series and older iPhones: Search for the "Back Tap" setting in your iOS Settings app. Choose Any Shortcut Launcher in the "Double Tap" (or Triple Tap) section. -- Important Note on Search Functionality -- The search function is case-sensitive. This means users must type the keyword matching the exact upper and lower case letters as they appear in the shortcut name to get accurate results. Example: If the shortcut you need to find is named "Instant Clipboard Actions": Typing "instant" or "clipboard" will give an error: "Shortcut Not Found" Typing "Instant" or "Clipboard" will successfully show the shortcut in the search result. -- Some Examples of Use Cases -- Set Up a Source Folder for Frequently Used Shortcuts: 1) Open the Shortcuts app and create a folder named "Favorite Shortcuts" (or any name you prefer). 2) Move your most-used shortcuts into the "Favorite Shortcuts" folder. 3) In the editing interface of the Shortcut Launcher shortcut in the Shortcuts app, find the action “Get shortcut from All Shortcuts” below the instruction comment. 4) Tap on the variable “All Shortcuts” (in “Get shortcut from All Shortcuts”) and change it to the "Favorite Shortcuts" folder. VPN Toggle: 1) Install the "VPN Switch" shortcut to quickly connect or disconnect your VPN without having to leave the app or website you are using. Download it here: VPN Switch . 2) Place "VPN Switch" in the “Favorite Shortcuts” folder for quick access. 3) From now, you can use Shortcut Launcher to run "VPN Switch" without leaving your current app. Organizing Shortcuts by Category (Example: Type of Input Data): 1) Duplicate Any Shortcut Launcher and rename the copies to "Image Shortcuts" and "Text Shortcuts." 2) In the Shortcuts app, create two folders named "Image Shortcuts" and "Text Shortcuts." 3) Move all your image-related shortcuts into the "Image Shortcuts" folder and all your text-related shortcuts into the "Text Shortcuts" folder. 4) Edit the "Image Shortcuts" shortcut to get shortcuts from the "Image Shortcuts" folder. 5) Edit the "Text Shortcuts" shortcut to get shortcuts from the "Text Shortcuts" folder. 6) When you want to use a shortcut, choose the "Image Shortcuts" shortcut if your input data is an image, or the "Text Shortcuts" shortcut if your input data is text. This way, you can quickly find and use the right shortcut in the relevant category, without having to scroll through a sea of irrelevant shortcuts. ## Compatibility iPhone, iPad ## Required apps [View this page](https://shortcutlibrary.app/shortcuts/any-shortcut-launcher) [Download Shortcuts Library on the App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/id6759494377)
