I have one in the Bluetooth section for when I connect my AirPods it will show a menu with three options to quickly choose like podcast, music RU-vid. When I’m in my car I use the same Bluetooth trigger so when I turn on my Bluetooth it will ask me directions to work or home. If it’s work then it will be early morning and dark so it it will also dim the brightness and then pop back into podcasts for me while it’s loading Waze directions in background. Have a few more like nfc tag on my workout bikes that opens the app for working out and music.

Hi Brandon your video on shortcuts is very useful thanks. I’ve a shortcut saved to my home screen that opens a particular photo when I click on the tile. The script is finding the photo then showing it using quick look (show photos in quick look). However it opens the photo NOT in full screen. You have to tap the actual image to show it in full screen. Is there a shortcut script to show the photo in FULL SCREEN mode either using show photos in quick look or show photos or something?

@VitoAD 4 года назад

Thanks for the video really informative. Created the morning alarm wake up and it works great. Question in Home automation People Arrive and People Leave is grayed out. Why is that and how can I correct it so they are available? Thanks

@Taniabezugla 4 года назад

Wow! I made one just like yours and can't wait to hear it next morning! The only problem I have is that it works with apple apps and just a few others. E.g. I can't make my Deezer music app open when my earphones are connected, can't do anything with google calendar, and the weather app doesn't change the speed of wind to meters per second properly, so I get 1667 m/s instead of 1.667, or better yet 1.5 m/s - and you can't do anything about it. Hope they continue developing this feature because it is a great tool to make your life easier.

@Mamignonne100 Год назад

Hello, Brandon. I liked the way you described this lesson. But, Do these automations also work for the iwatches as well? I tried it, however; it didn’t work. For example; I set my animation for when my battery ( I chose iwatch battery dropped below or above a certain amount, to speak my text that I typed). Although, it wasn’t regarding my iwatch battery. It was really pertaining to the status of my iPhone battery and not my iwatch battery . 😞 Any advice, Please ?🙏🏽

Great video. It's got me thinking. I'm trying to create an automation for the Amazon Flex App. I can get the app to open without a problem. Is it possible to navigate to a particulat menu item within the app and then refresh the screen every specified number of seconds?

Hi Brandon, thank you very much for nice and clear explanation. I would to ask if you know how to drop volume down, because my iPhone speak on 200% speaker capacity, and I would like to get this speak on 10% to do not wake up every person in my city ;) Thank you! Regards

@gombo108 4 года назад

first of all thx so much for your videos!!! how do i add video clips etc. I am imagining a reminder shortcut that either randomly pops up several times a day or set to specific times and places, with Motivational text-quotations, picture quotes and/or short video clips. can you help? best wishes

@YasinAlsbey 2 года назад

hey i just wanted to ask if you have any idea how to make a text replacement for current date thru the shortcut app or without it. I really want to log date every day for example i type “tt” and replaces it with 27.02.2022. Is that possible and if yes can you help me with that :)

@AlteFleiger Год назад

Just ran onto this and mde an attempt to replicate the "Good Morning" automated shortcut with iOS 16.4.1 and No Luck. Clearly the interface and process in the Shortcut creation process has changed. What I ended up with was a mini-script that did not speak (even though Speak Text was included) and did not run on schedule (set to a given time-of-day), and which offered no obvious way to edit the script to improve the operation. I know that this tutorial was filmed 3 Y ago, so I wonder if there is an up-to-date version somewhere ??

@salpal97 3 года назад

Hey, Brandon! I’m really interested on the venmo automation. I tried setting it up but I always get the “invalid recipient” error. How do I fix that? Thank you so much! I LOVE this video so much! I love the one where siri wakes me up and tell me the date and weather! Very neat!

The morning shortcut is good but if you just ask Siri for the weather it gives you details as to when it is going to rain including the high and the low how do you make this into the automation? Also how do you get this automation to not only tell you the date but the day of the week like today is Sunday, September 4, 2022

@skylercutsforth8595 2 года назад

Do you know how to make an automation for an open app script, like you would with changing the cover art for an app, but instead of just opening the app it would open to a certain page on the app. What I'm trying to do is make an open app bookmark in my home screen that I can click on that will take me directly to the bluetooth devices page on settings so that I can SWITCH bluetooth connection, not just turn bluetooth off or on like most shortcuts show. Or if there is another way to do a shortcut to switching Bluetooth devices you're connected to that would be helpful! Thanks!

I'm on iOS 12 with an iPhone 7+ and have not updated to iOS 13 but would love to even just solely for the automated shortcuts! My only question is, given the fact that the shortcuts can be automated, does that end up killing the battery life? Also, if the shortcuts app is not running in the background, does it still execute automated shortcuts?

Hi Brandon, hope you can help me out here. I've tried following your steps and have created some automationa of my own but the wake up automation does not work.

I'm a new iPhone user so struggling a little. Thanks!

How do you use Google Maps shortcut to get directions to a certain place every morning or at a set time every week? The “Get directions” shortcut just seems to prompt me to manually type in the address which is not an automation imo. Very useful video. I made a simple automation just now to turn on airplane mode every night at a certain time and another one to turn it back off before I wake up. It’s supposed to be better for your health, and now I dont even have to remind myself. It’s also more energy efficient, sometimes I had an app open in the background using locational services all night and in the morning my battery is drained.
