Not sure if it’s an issue. But it’s kinda annoying. #135

Description

Your app is amazing! I love using it.

I made a small shortcut that just uses Actions-Authenticate function, then opens another shortcut.

The main shortcut is a lookup that retrieves values from a dictionary.

It’s working great.

This is where my little “thing” happens.

  1. I run the “starter” shortcut with authenticate
  2. It uses FaceID
  3. It attempts to open the lookup shortcut. then
  4. Opens Actions app.
  5. Opens Shortcuts app.
  6. Runs the lookup shortcut over the top.

Is # 4, and 5 intended to happen? Or am I using the functions incorrectly?

The system authentication only works when presented in an app, not from a shortcuts action. That's why it has to open the app.

Is there a way to go back to the original app?
