Helloo, so I want to create a shortcut which brings me to the Whatsapp preferences in the settings App. For that, I need the Bundle ID which i found out to be “net.whatsapp.Whatsapp” via Method 1 of this guide. I created a “Open Url” shortcut using the “Settings For App” URL of this list, and this is the result: prefs:root=net.whatsapp.Whatsapp But it doesn’t work, it just sends me to the settings App wherever I left it. Anybody know what I’m doing wrong?:O

Since last iOS, app settings are located in a "folder" called apps, maybe this changed the path to be used.

So maybe try prefs:root=APPS&path=net.whatsapp.Whatsapp

It seems that capitalisation is relevant, so other than that, maybe, just the big "W" is wrong.. 🤔
