Hello Maged Kamal,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.


We understand that you want to run a shortcut without unlock the iPhone. You can run a shortcut by using Siri, see this article for how to set this up:


Run shortcuts with Siri, the Shortcuts app, or Siri Suggestions - Apple Support


If your shortcuts are related to functions within the Home app, you can use the following to create an automation:


Create home automations with the Home app - Apple Support

Enable or disable a personal automation - Apple Support


If these suggestions do not meet your needs, please get back to us with further explanation of what you want to accomplish and we can go from there.


Best regards.
