iOS shortcuts - overlay text font picker broken in iOS 27

Since upgrading to iOS 27, the overlay text shortcut action won’t let me pick a font for the text.

tapping on System to pick a font other than system does nothing. Existing shortcuts with this action that have a font other than system still honour the selected font.


Anyone else seeing this or found a fix/workaround?


EDIT: it prompts me for the font at runtime and lets me pick it but behaves as though I’ve told it to ask each time…

A duplicated shortcut whose original font wasn’t system honours that font. Still can’t be changed.
