Case reopened:

iphone Automations doesn’t work because it requires human authorization everytime the automation is fired (and at the time it fires I’m laying in bed)

Workaround: I gave up on the automation path and created a Shortcut that I’ll trigger everyday before sleeping. Not ideal but good enough until the iOS app is fixed 🙂
