Letting your family know when you'll be home requires looking at Maps, estimating your arrival time, switching to Messages, finding the contact, and typing it out. A share ETA with family shortcut for iPhone automates the whole process, it reads your current travel time to home from Maps and sends the ETA directly to your family group or individual contacts with a single tap.
Tap the shortcut and it reads your current location and calculates the travel time to your home address using Apple Maps. It then composes and sends a message to your pre-configured family contacts saying something like 'On my way home, arriving in about 20 minutes'. The whole process takes three seconds and requires no typing.
Go to getturin.com and describe your shortcut (e.g., 'Send my ETA home to my family group chat automatically').
Wait a few seconds for Turin's AI to build the ETA sharing shortcut.
Tap the 'Install' button to add it directly to your Apple Shortcuts app.
The ETA is calculated and sent automatically, no estimating or message composition needed.
Uses current traffic conditions from Maps so the ETA reflects real-world conditions.
Set up your family recipients once and the shortcut always sends to the right people.
