This shortcut adds an iPhone frame to the screenshot that makes it really cool and professional when you share them with others. It supports up to iPhone 13 as of now and the developer will continue to update the frames once every new iPhone launches. For this shortcut to work, a file called frames.jason should be downloaded but the shortcut will auto-download the file. All you need to do is give permission for the download.
Take a screenshot and tap the share sheet icon. Now tap Apple frames and allow all other permission that the shortcut is asking.

Sales Tax
This is a location-based shortcut that lets you find the tax added to a product. helps you find how much tax is actually added to a certain price. so it will need access to your location because it is location-based.
This way it works with every single state so if we put in our subtotal let’s say 100.96$ and it will give you the total after-tax is 270.337$.
It was built by basically getting the location of your state and showing local and then it shows you all of the values for each state right there.
Then it takes the subtotal and multiplies it by the value right there which then it does round it up and it gives you the final round total. This is very useful for finding sales tax.
