Apple Shortcuts App Gallery & Personal Automations App Store Listing in Simplified Chinese — zh-Hans 快捷指令 Connect Copy
You market your app inside the Apple Shortcuts app — shortcut gallery tiles, folders, personal automations, Share Sheet shortcuts, maybe automation triggers on the product page — and the en-US gallery looks polished.
Open the same app on the China storefront and the product page still reads English: name, subtitle, keywords, description, and screenshot captions frozen with Shortcuts, Gallery, Automations, Personal Automation, and sample shortcut titles in Latin script.
Shipping App Intents in Xcode does not auto-fill zh-Hans listing rows with natural Chinese for the Shortcuts app workflows you showcase.
AppLocale delivers paste-ready Simplified Chinese for those Connect fields — not App Intents engineering, not Hey Siri spoken-phrase copy, not automation consulting, not a machine translation dump.
Operator guidance only — no ranking guarantee, not legal advice, not investment advice. Seller: Fortune Insight, LLC.
Western indie iOS and macOS developers — US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia — whose product page markets Apple Shortcuts app workflows:
Shortcut gallery tiles — actions and shortcuts users add from your app in the Shortcuts app gallery
Shortcut folders — organized collections, category folders, or bundled shortcut packs visible in marketing screenshots
Personal automations — time-of-day, location, app-open, or NFC triggers that run your shortcuts automatically
Share Sheet shortcuts — shortcuts surfaced from the system Share sheet or Share extension rows in your gallery
Automation-centric positioning — subtitle and keywords that should signal 快捷指令, 自动化, or 个人自动化 without stuffing English Shortcuts strings
You finished the en-US listing. The zh-Hans row exists or is in progress, but China buyers still see English searchable fields and English Shortcuts-app screenshot captions. You need paste-ready Connect copy for those marketing strings — not a contractor to rewrite App Intents providers or teach users how to build automations.
This page is not our spoken App Shortcut phrases guide — that guide covers Hey Siri invocations, Ask Siri to… overlays, and custom voice-command callouts for App Shortcuts in the binary. This page is for the Apple Shortcuts app gallery, folders, automations, and Share Sheet shortcut workflows you showcase on the product page.
Shortcuts app marketing is not App Shortcuts phrases, App Intents engineering, or widget guides
Shortcut-aware apps blur several shop guides indie teams conflate. AppLocale covers listing metadata only — Shortcuts app product-page marketing:
Apple Shortcuts app gallery & automations (this page) — shortcut tiles, folders, personal automations, Share Sheet shortcut rows, and automation trigger callouts in listing fields and screenshot captions.
Spoken App Shortcut phrases (different) — Hey Siri invocations, Ask Siri to… overlays, and custom voice-command callouts for App Shortcuts in the binary. See spoken App Shortcut phrases listing guide — not Shortcuts app gallery copy.
App Intents / Siri action surfaces (different) — intent-centric product pages, Shortcuts action tiles, and Apple Intelligence action marketing broadly. See App Intents listing guide — not gallery-and-automation storefront copy alone.
Home Screen / Lock Screen widgets (different) — widget gallery sizes and StandBy previews. See Home & Lock Screen widgets listing guide — not Shortcuts app folders.
Control Center controls (different) — iOS 18+ toggles in Control Center slots. See Control Center listing guide — not automation trigger copy.
HomeKit / Apple Home (different) — smart-home room grids, accessory tiles, and Matter badges. See HomeKit & Matter listing guide — not Shortcuts app automation marketing.
Your screenshots may show Shortcuts gallery tiles next to widget pickers or Control Center sheets. Listing copy should name the correct surface per frame — a personal automation trigger sheet is not a widget gallery picker and not a HomeKit room layout.
Listing fields vs App Intents engineering vs screenshot design
Shortcuts-centric apps blur three workstreams indie teams merge:
App Store Connect listing metadata — name, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text, screenshot overlay captions showing Shortcuts app gallery, folders, automations, and Share Sheet shortcut workflows on the zh-Hans row. AppLocale scope.
Screenshot composition — device frames, Shortcuts app mockups, burned-in Gallery or Automations headlines, re-exporting PNGs with Latin-script shortcut titles. Design scope — AppLocale delivers caption lines you paste or hand to a designer.
Why English Shortcuts-app copy hurts on the China storefront
Apps that market Shortcuts app integration often lead screenshots with gallery tiles, folder organization, or personal automation setup — surfaces where English system chrome and your sample shortcut titles appear together:
English Shortcuts overlays — “Shortcuts”, “Gallery”, “Automations”, “Personal Automation” left as capture defaults while your zh-Hans description claims full Chinese support
Latin-script shortcut titles in gallery frames — “Morning Routine”, “Log Expense”, “Start Focus” still in English on screenshots buyers skim before reading the description
Keyword field stuffed with English — Shortcuts, Automations, Personal Automation crowding out hanzi terms Chinese buyers actually search (快捷指令, 自动化, 个人自动化)
Description lists English automation triggers only — bullet list of trigger types buyers cannot read, with no zh-Hans equivalents in the listing body
Share Sheet shortcut rows untranslated — marketing frames showing Share Sheet shortcut pickers with English action labels on the zh-Hans product page
Screenshot captions mismatch gallery — Connect caption fields are zh-Hans but burned-in Shortcuts app chrome on PNG exports is still Latin script
Better zh-Hans listing copy and Shortcuts-app screenshot captions reduce product-page bounce for automation-first buyers — they do not replace in-app shortcut title localization inside the binary or guarantee Search rank.
Shortcuts-app listing copy — what translates differently
Automation-forward listings use vocabulary general utility guides rarely cover. zh-Hans copy should reflect how Chinese App Store readers evaluate Shortcuts app workflows — not a literal paste of US marketing:
快捷指令 vs 捷径 — 快捷指令 is the standard App Store term for the Shortcuts app in mainland China; 捷径 is legacy vocabulary some buyers still search — see Simplified Chinese keywords guide for field packing
自动化 vs 个人自动化 — 自动化 for general automation marketing; 个人自动化 when screenshots show the Personal Automation tab and trigger setup sheets
文件夹 — folder organization when your gallery shows categorized shortcut collections
共享表单快捷指令 — natural framing for Share Sheet shortcut rows in description and screenshot captions
Feature-accurate claims — if you market three gallery shortcuts and two personal automations, zh-Hans copy should name those workflows — not promise automation for features without Shortcuts integration
Natural automation Chinese — zh-Hans trigger descriptions buyers recognize, not 翻译腔 calques of English automation marketing
Common mistakes on Shortcuts-app zh-Hans listings
Assuming App Intents localizes listing automatically — App Intents wired in Xcode; zh-Hans row never added or left blank
Conflating Shortcuts app with spoken Hey Siri phrases — gallery and automation marketing is not the same as voice invocation copy; see spoken App Shortcut phrases guide
Pasting English Shortcuts into keywords — wastes the 100-character field; Chinese Search does not index Latin-script automation terms the way you hope
Only translating the description — subtitle, keywords, and Shortcuts-app screenshot caption lines still English
English shortcut titles burned into PNG exports — Connect caption fields are Chinese but gallery tile labels on the image file are still Latin
Conflating Shortcuts app with Share sheet export — Share Sheet shortcut rows are Shortcuts-app marketing; generic Share, Copy Link, Save Image copy is a different guide — see Share Sheet listing guide
What's New still English after Shortcuts integration launch — see What's New in Simplified Chinese when gallery shortcuts shipped in a recent version
Promising automation consulting — AppLocale rewrites Connect listing copy, not how end users build personal automations in the Shortcuts app
What good zh-Hans Shortcuts-app listing copy looks like
Listing fields should name the Shortcuts app workflows you actually ship — aligned with your screenshot order:
Subtitle — one concrete promise: “支持快捷指令与自动化” or “一键添加快捷指令” — not vague “提升效率” or a full English shortcut title
Keywords — mix category terms (待办, 记账, 健身) with Shortcuts intent (快捷指令, 自动化, 个人自动化, 捷径) within Connect’s ~100-character zh-Hans budget
Description — short paragraphs listing zh-Hans gallery and automation examples: “从快捷指令库一键添加，支持个人自动化触发” — mirror screenshot sequence
Screenshot captions on gallery frames — name the on-screen workflow: “快捷指令库一键添加” not “强大功能”
Automation trigger captions — when frames show Personal Automation setup, caption the trigger type: “到达办公室自动运行” not “Smart automation”
Folder organization captions — when gallery shows categorized shortcuts: “按场景分类的快捷指令文件夹”
Voice consistency — same 你/您 choice as your description across overlay lines and promotional text
Connect checklist for Shortcuts-app apps targeting China
Open App Store → Chinese (Simplified) — confirm the zh-Hans row exists; empty rows fall back to English on the China storefront
Audit searchable fields — name, subtitle, keywords, description saved in zh-Hans, not placeholder English
List your English Shortcuts marketing strings — every gallery tile title, folder name, automation trigger, and Share Sheet shortcut label shown on the US product page
Walk the screenshot gallery in order — flag frames showing Shortcuts app gallery, folder views, Automations tab, Personal Automation setup, or Share Sheet shortcut rows
Export overlay lines — spreadsheet of English caption text per frame beats screenshots of Connect alone
Note burned-in vs Connect captions — if shortcut titles are embedded in PNGs, caption deliverables go to your designer for re-export
Check subtitle character count — full shortcut titles usually belong in description or captions, not the 30-character subtitle; see Chinese character limits guide
Match What's New if Shortcuts integration is new — release notes should mention gallery shortcut or automation support in zh-Hans when that version added Shortcuts app integration
Verify China in Pricing and Availability — storefront enabled before expecting zh-Hans to appear
What AppLocale delivers
For one app on the zh-Hans row, paste-ready Simplified Chinese listing copy focused on Apple Shortcuts app marketing:
Name, subtitle, keywords, description — rewritten for China Search intent and Shortcuts-app workflows you ship, with natural zh-Hans gallery and automation examples where your English listing shows them
Promotional text — when you include current English promo copy in your brief
Shortcuts-app screenshot caption lines — overlay text for frames showing gallery tiles, folders, personal automations, automation triggers, and Share Sheet shortcut rows visible in your gallery
zh-Hans shortcut title equivalents — when you include your English gallery shortcut names in the listing brief, natural Chinese titles for description, captions, and optional designer re-export
English alignment — en-US fields tightened when both storefronts need the same promise in native phrasing
24-hour turnaround — delivered to the email on your Stripe receipt after checkout and intake
Human rewrite from your current English listing — not a machine translation dump. Default $79 scope is listing metadata plus Shortcuts-app gallery captions; ask if you need Custom Product Pages or device-specific screenshot sets bundled separately.
What AppLocale does not do
Does not write App Intents, AppShortcutsProvider, or Shortcuts automation plumbing code
Does not configure personal automations, NFC triggers, or Shortcuts app workflows for end users
Send intake — reply from the email on your Stripe receipt with your App Store listing URL, current English listing text, English screenshot overlay lines (especially gallery, folder, automation, and Share Sheet shortcut frames), and target locale (zh-Hans)
Receive files — within 24 hours, paste-ready zh-Hans copy arrives at your Stripe receipt email
Paste into Connect — enter metadata on the zh-Hans row; hand caption lines to your designer if text is burned into PNGs
Does AppLocale write App Intents code or configure Shortcuts app automations?
No. We rewrite App Store Connect listing metadata and screenshot caption text only. App Intents engineering and end-user automation setup are separate work.
What Shortcuts-app listing copy does AppLocale deliver?
Paste-ready zh-Hans name, subtitle, keywords, description, and caption lines on screenshots that show Shortcuts app gallery tiles, folders, personal automations, automation triggers, and Share Sheet shortcut rows. When you include English gallery shortcut names in your brief, we deliver natural zh-Hans equivalents for those marketing strings.
How is this different from the spoken App Shortcut phrases page?
The spoken App Shortcut phrases guide covers Hey Siri invocations, Ask Siri to… overlays, and custom voice-command callouts for App Shortcuts in the binary. This page is for Apple Shortcuts app gallery, folders, automations, and Share Sheet shortcut workflows in listing metadata and screenshot captions.
Should I paste English Shortcuts into zh-Hans keywords?
No. English automation terms waste the keyword budget and do not match Chinese Search behavior. Pack hanzi terms buyers type (快捷指令, 自动化, 个人自动化); put gallery and automation examples in description paragraphs and screenshot captions instead.
Do zh-Hans Shortcuts captions change shortcut titles at runtime?
No. Listing captions do not change in-app shortcut tile labels or folder names at runtime. In-app shortcut string localization requires engineering outside AppLocale scope.
What character limits apply to Shortcuts-app listing fields?
App name and subtitle are each up to 30 characters on the zh-Hans row. The keyword field allows up to 100 characters. Full shortcut titles usually belong in description or screenshot captions, not the subtitle — see Chinese character limits guide.
What do I send after payment?
Your live App Store listing URL, current English listing text, English screenshot overlay lines (especially gallery, folder, and automation frames), and target locale (zh-Hans). Reply from the email on your Stripe receipt — we deliver within 24 hours.
Will zh-Hans keywords rank my app for 快捷指令?
We do not guarantee keyword position or download growth. We pack keywords within Connect limits based on your app’s actual Shortcuts app use case — not empty rank promises.

What is AppLocale not?
Not App Intents engineering, not Hey Siri spoken-phrase copy, not automation consulting, not screenshot design, not binary localization, not ads, not ranking guarantees, not review-reply retainers, not QuantRadar, and not investment advice.
