Starbucks shortcut not working on apple watch

My Starbucks shortcut was working for years but has stopped working. Anyone find a way to get this working again? I have tried creating, recreating, removing watch app adding watch app.


  • shortcut works fine on iPhone (executed from shortcuts app or “Siri, i need a coffee”
  • shortcut doesn’t work on watch (raise wrist and speak “Siri, i need a coffee” nor run manually from shortcut app on watch)
  • If I speak it says “uh oh, I’m having a problem…”
  • If I trying running through the watch shortcut app it just brings up the startbucks app on the pay screen.


I don’t know if the Starbucks app broke or if it is an issue with shortcuts

Hi computers-are-hard,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're having an issue with running a Shortcut for a third-party app on your Apple Watch. We're happy to help get you in the right direction to assist.


You've isolated the issue well, if you have a similar third-party app installed on your Apple Watch we'd recommend recreating and testing the shortcut with that app. Testing if the app itself opens, you get the Siri error, or when manually ran the pay screen shows. If needed, the guide here can assist: Shortcuts User Guide


Additionally, we'd recommend ensuring all watchOS is fully updated: Update your Apple Watch as well as a normal restart of your Apple Watch: How to restart your Apple Watch


Also, as you mentioned when manually ran it only shows the pay screen you can test temporarily changing or removing the default payment method to see if the full app opens as intended. Change your default transaction details


You can also follow the steps here to help test the "Hey Siri" issue: Use Siri on your Apple Watch


If the problem remains, we'd recommend you reach out to Apple Support directly to continue to assist. Get connected using the links below.
