Could you support Siri Shortcuts? The Shortcuts I’d most like to see is Input control. The 3 volume presets would be a nice bonus. It would be Game Changing to be able to program a shortcut to go “Hey Siri, play Nintendo” and it switch my input.

Also, would be happy to support this great app through a Tip Jar or other in-app purchase!

Hey Tim,
Any additional thoughts on adding Siri Shortcuts to Crank It?

It would be super awesome to just say “Hey Siri, change input to AppleTV” or “Hey Siri, set volume to High.” I heard it’s not too difficult to implement—I feel like your app already does the hard part. I’d be willing to contribute some money to make the development time worthwhile.

Yup it’s on the list but time is the issue. Thanks for the offer but money doesn’t help make time ☺️ I would definitely be up for open-sourcing this app if others want to contribute tho - would need to look at licenses and see if im allowed to open source

Oh cool! Thanks and sorry for the late reply. Could be a fun project to see what I can learn and figure out.
