Is there a way to make a apple shortcut automatically disable Bluetooth if no devices are connected but also act as a toggle for re enabling Bluetooth?

I just turn mine off from the control center menu, swipe down from top right corner. It’s already so simple, why is a shortcut needed at all?

that's just a temporary toggle

Oops I forgot temporary.

I just found this tutorial and tried it and it works. I had to create two shortcuts, one for OFF and the other for ON

/// Edit /// There is a Toggle option in the Set Bluetooth action which allows for a single shortcut instead of two distinct On/Off
