Automations (Shortcuts) do not have Notify when run and Ask before running toggles

I have an iPhone 6S running the latest iOS 15.8.3.


I set up automation to activate data and wifi according to my locations.


I only see the toggle "Enable This Automation" when I try to edit Automation.


I want to deactivate Automation notifications and I want them to run automatically. I cannot do that because the toggles to do that are no where to be found.


Any idea how to fix this?

iPhone 6s, iOS 15

_-_NA_ ~ In the iOS 15 & 16 versions of Shortcuts, some automations are viewed by Apple as a potential security risk if allowed to run completely automatically. They are triggered automatically, but will ask you for confirmation before actually running the automation:


  • Arrive 👈🏻
  • Leave 👈🏻
  • Before I Commute
  • Email
  • Message
  • Wi-Fi
  • Bluetooth


Enable or disable a personal automation in Shortcuts on iPhone or iPad


In the iOS 17 & 18 versions of Shortcuts, such automations are allowed to run completely automatically:


Enable or disable a personal automation in Shortcuts on iPhone or iPad


...So you would need to buy a newer iPhone which can run iOS 17 or 18.
