tvOS/iOS Beta Notes

v2024.10.01.2146

• NEW: Siri Intents -> App Intents
Note: This changes the backend of how Channels’ Siri Shortcut actions work. Please confirm your shortcuts still work and if not, post on the pinned thread in Community.

This is a bit of an internal change and inside baseball. It migrates the actions that power Siri Shortcuts to a modern framework that powers many more features on iOS. This is the first step in a path to other functionality like the new Control Actions in iOS 18.
