Apple shortcuts and widgets battery drainage?

Hey so I’m wondering if using apple shortcuts drains battery. To be specific I mean scripting and opening an app. I use this to change my icon pictures but having to go through shortcuts then the app itself will that drain my battery?


Another question regarding widgets: I also wonder if many widgets drain battery. It’s the third party Widgetsmith app on AppStore will that take up battery?

So this is my current home screen I’m customizing it right now just wanted to know about the battery usage if I do the shortcuts trick to get different app icons. These are the kinds of widgets I wonder if they take up battery life.


Thank you very much,
