Build a Photo Slideshow Shortcut for iPhone

Showing holiday photos to family or a collection of event shots to friends still requires navigating through the Photos app, finding the right album, and manually swiping through images. A photo slideshow shortcut for iPhone starts a hands-free slideshow from any album, date range, or shared photo set with a single tap — perfect for gatherings, presentations, or a relaxing scroll through memories.

How this slideshow shortcut works

Tap the shortcut and select an album or let it use a date range you specify. The shortcut plays a full-screen slideshow of the matching photos at a configurable pace. Connect to an Apple TV or AirPlay display for a bigger screen, or just pass the phone around — the slideshow runs hands-free until you stop it.
