Open in Safari [Shortcuts]

Takeaways

  • Problem: Arc (macOS default) + Arc Search (iOS) lack Safari-only shortcut actions and integrations.
  • Solution: Apple Shortcuts workflow merges two Reddit-sourced shortcuts into one cross-platform action that opens the current page in Safari.
  • Usage: iOS — Share Sheet → shortcut (pin to top); macOS — Share from Arc/Chrome → Shortcuts → select.
  • Workaround until Arc adds native “Open in Safari” (like Firefox Focus).

Notes

From tangiblelife.net’s [Shortcuts] series. Useful when Safari-dependent automations (writing workflow shortcuts, Safari-specific actions) must run on a page viewed in Arc.
