shortcuts

Figured I'd share. I just found out about a Mac OS shortcut that has helped me like crazy. If you're like me you have 1 4K monitor with apps upon apps opened and when you're on a Teams call and someone asks you a question, you're freaking out trying to find the Teams meeting window to unmute...

Think this can be done in IFTTT but thought it would be good to setup in the shortcuts app and don't think IFTTT allows 8 Applets without paying. My job involves me traveling to around 8 sites in the local area. What I am looking to do is create an automation that adds a calendar event when I...

After I say "Hey Siri, lamp on", Siri turns off the lamp -- yay, thank you Siri -- but Siri goes on a monologue like some frustrated aging stage actor telling me how he did it, what he did, and saying my name. Is there a way to just Siri to complete a shortcut silently?

I can add Shortcuts widget to my Today View screen with a generic widget background. (It's an email action so it shows the email icon). I can add a Shortcuts icon to my Home screen with a custom icon. Is there a way to add a Shortcuts widget/icon to my *Today View* screen *with* the custom icon?

Here's one that stumps me. On my iPhone, I have two phantom shortcuts that I can not find and delete. Please see the screen shots below. I would love to be able to delete them. But they DO NOT show in the shortcuts app. If I ask Siri to show me my shortcuts. They are there. The first one was...

I'm going in circles on this as stuff on the internet doesn't look like my iPhone. I have cameras (in Home app) that I can view using Siri ("Hey Siri, show me the front door", as an example). I'd like to have a button on my widgets screen that I can tap and it show me the camera. I see...

I arm and disarm the alarm on my house with a Siri shortcut. Prior to Watch OS 7, I simply raised my wrist and spoke the Siri shortcut. Now the new shortcuts app opens and requires me to press "Run" or "Cancel". Is there a way to run Siri Shortcuts on my watch w/o having to press "Run" - Thank you!

I have created a iOS shortcuts (Workflow) on a iPadOS. Finally, I would like to save and send a backup to Mac. This has been really easy in the past. Unfortunately it is no longer possible to share any Shortcuts via eMail, ftp client or other non iCloud services. It looks like Apple locked down...

Does anyone know how I can edit Fantastical without touching the mouse? I know the shortcuts they have but I want to be able to move up and down my tasks or events and edit their details without ever leaving the keyboard. It is such a great app that I can't believe they wouldn't make this...

Since the Apple Music app doesn't display song release dates, unless you navigate to the album, I want to type out the Siri command "When was this song released" to run as a shortcut. Is that possible?

Hey all I've just started using Personal Automations on the Shorcuts app within iOS and am already running into some issues so looking for some advice. This specific automation that I've set up on my iPhone is to make things easier when I get into my car. I have the Pioneer SPH-10BT...

HI! I have run into a problem. In the shorcuts app on my devices, I can turn lights on in a room, but I cannot turn them off. Basically, I can set a "scene" as a shortcut, but I cannot set to toggle. Anyone knows what is up?

The Apple Shortcuts app gives you the option to display shortcuts on the home screen. I added one to the home screen, but when I attempted to delete it, like I would an app, it just gives me haptic feedback and blinks. How do I delete this, or is this a bug? Update: So, I wasn't tapping and...

The stock Notes widget isn't useful to me. It doesn't allow me to specify which note I want it to always display. Yes, I can have it display the most recently edited note (Settings > Notes > Viewing > Sort Notes By Date Edited), but if I make an edit to another note, then that note is now...

When I read about Personal Automations, my first thought was, "I can finally set a different Do Not Disturb schedule on weekends and weekdays!" But I can't seem to get it to work. I created an automation that sets Do Not Disturb to off at the desired time, but at that time, instead of running...

I'm just new in Mac (macOS Mojave 10.14.6 - MacBook Pro 15", 2019) because besides being more ergonomic, it has some specific keys used in my language. In addition there are some other very useful keys: "print screen", "page up", "page down", "home" and "end". Unfortunately I found that they are...

Did anyone get this working? e.g. Turn something ON/OFF when the device enters or exits a location? I am trying to get this set up. Strangely I found that iOS will notify if the automation is about to run but NOT run it. I had to tap on the notification and select run. Its an Automation...

Anyone else having issues with shortcuts. watch os 6 beta 5 iOS 13 beta 5 HomePod 12.4 shortcuts work great on phone and pad. when trying to use on watch or HomePod it’s saying it cannot do it on the watch. Any ideas.

I'm a big fan of SHORTCUTS, ever since it first launched before Apple even bought the company. Since then, Apple has integrated them all-thru iOS by having 'shortcuts' show up as the first icon when hitting the SHARE arrow for anything. That shortcuts icon (when clicked) would allow you to...

The Apple Shortcuts app offers a shortcut to generate the top 25 most played tracks in Apple Music. Does this playlist live update, or do I need to generate a new one to update it?
