• How to automate turning Bluetooth off when not in use?

  The only Personal Automation trigger related to BT is when you connect to a device, but nothing for disconnecting.

• Log multiple short trips to Numbers (Shortcut)

  I created a Tour Logger with the help of Toolbox Pro. It uses "get location from coordinates" and the Global Variables. You also need Numbers.app since it writes the log into a Numbers table. Before running, add a new Numbers file called "Tour.numbers" into your Shortcuts folder. Source: about 4 years ago

• Count how many days in a row I say no?
