Apple iOS 13.1 Personal automation via Shortcuts

I agree it's disappointing. Any interesting automation is basically impossible. I've also found the arrival and leave triggers to only work about half the time, which seems a lot worse than I would expect from Siri location-based reminders which work pretty well.

I have never gotten location based reminders to work. I've tried setting up reminders when I arrive or leave work / home, but they never fired. The worst thing is that there is no indication that tells you why it didn't work.

They seem to be working with me a lot better on iOS 13.1 than they ever have in the past. Might be worth having another try?

that's odd.. those have always worked great for me. Did you let iOS know what your home and/or work locations were?
