App intents can be exposed in various ways beyond shortcuts, such as custom controls, focus filters, and spotlight actions. They enable users to perform specific actions without launching the app, making them more accessible and user-friendly. App intents can also be used to configure widgets, interact with hardware, and handle preferences, providing a seamless user experience across different platforms.

In this episode of the Compile Swift Podcast, hosts Jeff and Peter discuss the recent Apple "Nine-Nine" event, discussing the latest hardware announcements and their implications for developers. They reflect on how predictable Apple's product releases have become, highlighting the incremental updates across their platforms, particularly the new iPhone's "Capture Control" feature. 

The hosts explore the functionality of this new control, which allows users to adjust zoom and exposure settings directly from the side of the iPhone and how it compares to existing features like the volume button for taking photos. They also discuss the developer experience, including the built-in controls provided by Apple and the potential for creating custom controls. 

Additionally, they touch on the importance of understanding user needs when integrating new features into apps and the potential for future enhancements as Apple continues to evolve its technology. 

Join Geoff and Peter as they unpack these developments and share insights on how developers can leverage new tools to enhance their applications.
