Product:Swift Playgrounds Product Version:1.0
Classification:Feature (New) Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
In apps like Workflow and Pythonista it is possible to execute a Python script or a workflow from an action extension. This is helpful to automate computations on your iPad/iPhone.

Using these action extensions it is, for example, possible to share an image using the iOS share sheet, alter it using Python code and save the result back to the camera roll.

It would be very helpful for advanced users, as well as beginners to see how great and joyful programming can be and how many useful things you can do with it.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Share an image in Photos

Expected Results:
I can select a playground to execute, using the image as an input parameter.

Actual Results:
No option to execute a playground.

Version:
1.0
