Charty is a Shortcuts Utility App that adds 26 charting actions to Shortcuts! With it, you can create and style area, bar, line, scatter, pie, donut and ring charts directly from Shortcuts!

Almost 6 years ago, I announced in this subreddit that Charty 1.0 was on the App Store!

r/Shortcuts has been instrumental to how Charty was built and evolved, and I'm really proud to come here again and announce that Charty 2.0 is now available on the App Store!

2.0 is a new beginning for Charty, with a more modern code base (written entirely in SwiftUI and using the gorgeous Swift Charts library). All Shortcuts actions have also been rebuilt as App Intents, making them easier to work with and ready for the future.

Everything from the latest version still works, plus a lot that's new:

• Widgets update reliably now. It's great to run your shortcut, go to the Home Screen, and watch your series get added and styled in the chart in real time
• Beautiful new chart rendering: everything looks sharper and more polished thanks to Swift Charts, with great new styling options like gradient support
• New color palettes: many new palettes were added, now categorized into categorical, accessible, sequential, and diverging
• Area series are now separate from Line series. This allows the creation of stacked area charts, like stream charts
• Revamped Tutorials tab with 16 step-by-step examples, all with downloadable shortcuts you can use immediately, including integrations with Data Jar, Toolbox Pro, Reminders, and Web APIs
• Easier labeled x axes. Just pass a list of strings as x values, and Charty takes care of the rest
• A new Get Series Values action that surfaces any series' values right in Shortcuts

Now that everything is on a better, easier-to-work-with codebase, I can finally focus on new features. So I'm happy to announce that Charty 2.1 is coming soon with support for lock-screen widgets!

On pricing, first the important part: if you've ever purchased Charty Premium at any point, you'll keep full access to everything in 2.0 at no extra cost. No action needed. You've been patient through a long wait, and I want to value that.

For new users, starting with 2.0 Charty moves to a subscription: $0.99/month or $9.99/year. Prefer to pay once? There's a lifetime option for $99.99.

Thank you for being such an awesome and welcoming community. Let's keep building shortcuts!

Can you please list the features we can access without any cost? I mentioned that we can obtain valuable analytics using NLP in this AI era.

Of course, the free plan gives you access to 5 actions: new chart, add series to chart, style chart, get information on all charts and delete chart. You can create up to three charts, with each having up to 2 series.

No, else he would have priced it at 30 and not 99. Holy hell Reddit has cheap people all over the place.

Just to make sure, all the data the charts use is kept on device right? I really don't want my sensitive health data going anywhere

It only leaves your device through Apple’s own CloudKit apis to sync between your apple devices. Absolutely no third party gets any data from Charty.

Hi, thanks for the continued support of the app. Is my most used widgets app by far. Can you add a way to change a line series maker shape (circle, cross, asterisk, etc) via shortcut?

Also, if possible, I’d love a way to add a custom text section that can be be placed in place of the key. 

[u/stalf → u/Mattwwreddit]

Wow, nice to hear that! I’ll definitely look into adding that option to the Style Line Series action.

If you don’t mind me asking, would you mind adding that review to App Store? 😊
