Hello:



I am looking for any podcast that might give me information on how to open
another app, then execute actions within that app. For example, I would like
to open TuneIn, then have it open the sports stream for my favorite team.
Another example might be to open my NOAA weather radio app, and start
playing a selected radio stream. Any direction would be appreciated. Thanks.

Unfortunately not all apps have shortcut ability. It is up to the app developer to implement Siri shortcuts for their app.
I can not say whether your weather app has Siri shortcuts ability, but I can say that the last time I checked, TuneIn did not. I have contacted the developer of TuneIn and requested that Siri Shortcuts be implemented into their app.

To see if an app has shortcut ability, you can start by looking in the shortcuts app, or sometimes you can find it in the settings of the actual app.
You can download the shortcuts app from the app store.

As far as podcast, AppleVis did a 3 part series on shortcuts, and I would highly recommend you listen to them.

Hope this has helped.
