createTimer

An intent schema that creates a timer.

Declaration

var createTimer: some AppSchemaIntent { get }

Discussion

To make your app’s actions available to Apple Intelligence, conform your AppIntent to a schema that describes your action to the system. If your app’s functionality aligns with the clock domain and one of your app’s actions matches the createTimer schema, you can generate the properties and protocol conformance the schema requires for your intent implementation with the @AppIntent( .clock.createTimer) Swift macro. To make your app work with Siri, see Apple Intelligence and Siri AI.

The following example shows an intent that conforms to the createTimer schema:

@AppIntent(schema: .clock.createTimer)
struct CreateTimerIntent {
    var duration: Duration
    var label: String?
    var isSleepTimer: Bool

    func perform() async throws -> some ReturnsValue<<#TimerEntity#>> {
        <#code#>
    }
}

The schema supports the following system experiences:

  • Siri

  • Shortcuts
