Watch App: Add “Start Timer” Shortcut
On iPhone, Habitify provides a dedicated Shortcuts action to Start Timer for a habit, and it works great for time-based habits. On Apple Watch, this specific Habitify shortcut is not available at all in the Shortcuts app, so it is impossible to start a habit timer from a Shortcut on the watch. It would be very helpful if the Start Timer shortcut (for habits with duration goals) could also be exposed and supported on Apple Watch. This would allow starting timers directly from the watch in one tap or via Siri, which is especially important for activities like workouts, walking, or other on-the-go situations where the phone is not easily accessible.

Thanks for the suggestion. A Start Timer shortcut on the Watch would make timed habits faster to begin without opening the full app. We’ve logged this for product review and will share updates here when available.
