You can pretty much do anything that you can dream up. The coolest thing I’ve seen was chatbit but looks like it’s servers are down. It was a chat program built inside iOS shortcuts.
https://routinehub.co/ for lots of awesome shortcuts.

After trying multiple apps to sort my budgeting situation. I finally decided to create a solution that involves default Numbers + a shortcut to add row to the end of sheet. Now that shortcut lives on my homescreen. This is by far the best personal budgeting solution I’ve used. And I put it all together in 20 minutes!
That's a good use for Shortcuts, and this is a tiny bit off topic, but do yourself a solid and check out MoneyStats on the AppStore before you settle on that. Just take a peeksie.
It does all that + tells you how much is in any account at any time as long as the data is accurately entered/maintained, among a few other things.
Let me know your thoughts once you see it
Trying out android. I forgot the instructions but it's something to do with trygalaxy.com, shortcutting it and opening it. It gives you an android interface with home screen and apps. It's really damn trippy and pretty cool.
I set up a ton of overcomplicated functions to control my home theater. Entirely replaced an old Harmony remote with my phone.
Only real downside (apart from the time sink and occasional Siri weirdness) is that it relies on a couple of apps and one in particular (which I use for changing the input) the dev likes to break on updates.
