Automation under Apple Shortcuts need manual trigger

I created few automation(s) in my iPhone 11 Shortcuts, like when I leave my house, turn off WiFi, When I leave office, open Navigation app to my home.

The automation(s) are triggered, however it prompts me to Run it by manually pressing the Run option. I thought automation should run automatically not waiting for user input

I went into settings to check for location access to Shortcuts and Background App Refresh, etc., all looks good as far as I know.

Please let me know if I miss something so the automation would trigger by itself 100% without any user inputs.

iPhone 11, iOS 13

Hello, NtiP2020!

Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! I understand you are having issues with your automations running. I am here to help.

Just to make sure you set up the automations correctly, go ahead and review this resource on how to Create a new personal automation.

Once that is done, check out this resource on how to set up your Travel triggers.

If both of those look good, confirm you are running the latest iOS to ensure you are fully up to date. Here is how you can Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

I hope this helps and you have a great night.

Cheers!
