Apple recently released a shortcut called Remember This. Aimed at people who have short-term memory loss, the shortcut is designed to allow people to quickly build a visual log of what they’ve been getting up to throughout the day, all done with a couple of taps on your phone, or even just with your voice. I’ve been trying it out this past week, and while it’s simple, it’s very good, and I think it’s use can stretch beyond memory loss, I think it’s a great mindfulness tool as well. So in this short video, I’m going to show you how to get the shortcut setup and running, and then we’ll explore some options for how you might choose to use it.

I have ADHD and forget allot of things because my mind is always getting distracted, this is an amazing shortcut thank you for this

@Stormbrise Год назад

Ditto with the use for us neurodiverse 😂

@psychxx7146 Год назад

Ah…I wasn’t fast enough, 13 days late 😂

@jaadhee Год назад

Read the power of now by Eckhart Tolle. My ADHD is basically non existent now.

@maigallop Год назад

This is really cool! I have been using quick notes for all the things I needed to remember through out the day. Then I process everything in the evening. This will make the process easier I think. I noticed this shortcut also creates a tag #remember, so I created a Smart Folder to store all my entries. 😊

@wickedcabinboy Год назад

Your channel is one of the most helpful I have ever encountered. Thanks so much.

@ProperHonestTech Год назад

Thank you!

@judysbakeryandtestkitchen1654 Год назад

Thank you very much! As a senior, who has ADHD, this will be invaluable. I can add things as I think of them. I won’t get sidetracked to do something and then forget about the next thing that I was going to do.

Really appreciate this video. Returned to Apple ecosystem for the second time after 14 years, with the purchase of an iPhone 14 pro max in May this year, followed shortly by several other Apple products, and I had no idea what a Shortcut was and that a Remember function like this even existed. As a newcomer to your channel I’m shocked at the high quality of your tutorials. Apple should be paying you for your work. Thank you

@CaptainVideo1960 Год назад

So glad I stumbled on to this. I’d have never remembered to look something like this up. Going to use it often, since I have ADHD, OCD and short term memory loss. Great video. I also like that you just present the facts, no music in the background, no idiotic cutaways to dumb, meaningless stock footage clips that everyone else uses.

@robertdaly3630 Год назад

Thanks Tom. I see this shortcut having multiple uses, including during vacation. It can be used to store short descriptions of locations with a accompanying photo.

@peldridge2627 Год назад

great suggestion! just got back from a vacation and I took photos of locations because Apple puts the map location in the photo's file, but this would be better.

@ravi06197 Год назад

Love these beautifully put together videos letting us know of many lesser known, but incredibly powerful features of the Apple ecosystem.

@qwincyq6412 Год назад

Thanks so much for this. My colleagues with ABI are going to love this and I’ve already made a ‘remember this’ for myself to tell them about it .

@ritagraham6703 Год назад

I’ve never used Short Cuts before. Actually deleted the app and had to reinstall to follow your You Tube. I found this very well explained and helpful. Thank you.

@artysanmobile Год назад

This is a great video! I don’t have memory problems [yet] but I do so many odd jobs in a typical day, this makes all kind of sense for me. Thanks.

@fuzzylon 11 месяцев назад

Thanks ! This looks really interesting. I often get to the end of the day and feel like I haven't acheived anything because I have forgotten what I've been doing. This shortuct may help me to make a note of what I've done before I've forgotten. Two other things I like: - The photos appear not to go in to the photos app so I can freely photograph what I've been working on. - I can dictate the wording of the note as well as type it if that is easier to do at the time. It is also a great way to dip my toe in the waters of the shortcuts app and make me think of other tools there that might be useful.

@jessmelgar219 Год назад

This is awesome! I’m hoping for updates to reminders in the future that have disruptive reminders and follow up reminders. One of my challenges with ADHD is remembering to eat because I hyper focus so strongly I auto-clear reminders when the notification goes off, and then almost immediately forget the reminder was there. Banners are easy ignore and since the consolidation of notifications I usually clear the reminders entirely from lock screen and notification page.

@mikebedford4362 Год назад

Wow, Wow, Wow! This is sooo good!! Looking ahead this also feels like it will be part of the new Journal App thats likely to be announced at WWDC?! I journal every day and this is such a great collaborative tool. Such a fantastic channel. Thank you!

An update. I now use this by touching the mic at the bottom right of the screen. So much simpler and works very well at understanding my accent (pure Essex).

Hi Tom, thank you for making the video. Do you know if it’s possibly to save the photo taken in the ‘remember me shortcut’ (with the comments) to the photo albums. This would be a great facility to enhance photos I take. Thanks

@samueltremblay275 Год назад

It's in fact a very good substitute of DayOne application as I understand. But it's free. One of the main advantage why I bought DayOne was the ability to add a journal entry very fast. Like Cmd+Shift+D, type some thought then Cmd+Enter. But now I could see advantages to came back to a built-in application like Note. :) Thanks!

@brixtonbanner2899 8 месяцев назад

I have been using this for a while but I would recommend making a folder in notes called remember this and then sort that folder by date created with most recent first. Then go into the shortcut and modify it to always save into this new folder you have created. Very useful in that I can find all my remember this notes very easily.

@TheSurajAryan 8 месяцев назад

How to modify shortcut to save in my new created folder? Where do i need to change the location inside that shortcut?

@paultopping7413 Год назад

I can see how this could be very useful in certain circumstances although I am not keen on the idea of a separate note for each day that is just personal preference

This is just what I’ve been waiting for! - BRILLIANT, it will help me remember stuff…….and make my partner happy! I’ve set it up (very easy) and looking forward to trying it out…..I hope it can or will integrate with Calendar. I’m hoping it will also allow me to choose an image e.g. from a couple of hours ago….rather than just taking one at the specific time the reminder is set for.

I was excited when Apple introduced “Remind Me about this” they created a Reminder with a link back to the current app but not all apps are supposed. This looks a little more promising.

@cmgioe975 Год назад

great video, very cool shortcut. I want to create a folder for Remember this in Notes is there a way to change the location of the saved Remember this note? Thank you!

@Stormbrise Год назад

What would help is that if you can get this remember this to remind a person to do the thing you needed to remember, like put a date into a calendar for an event you have just been invited verbally to.

@kal-el-shadowfax1189 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for sharing this! This is quite helpful and lesser known. 👏🏽 Also, now that iPhone supports Journal app, is there a way to add the entries to Journal instead of Notes app?

I’m running 16.5 on iPhone 12 and find the actions in your video don’t match what I have to do to achieve what you teach. No matter however, I get there in the end and it saves me from doing multiple timed “ to do “ entries to take my weeks course of antibiotics 4 times a day!!! Thanks,

@WoodNotts Год назад

I’m keen to try this for short term memory loss but need to be able to use it by a Siri voice command over my motorcycle communication unit😩🤪 It would help me while out training so I can recall items from the run afterwards and the photo would be an added bonus as it could be discussed with the trainee too. Never one to make life easy😂 The automation I created didn’t work well enough to be able to use it as a standalone action as I still had to accept it, so I’ve stopped using it for now. Thanks for the heads up on all this and keep up the good work👍

@stownsin Год назад

Yay! Really useful. I have a chronic illness (ME) and logging how i feel at different times of the would be super herlpful. Only prob is, brainfog gets in the ,way! Brilliant Tom as ever. Thanks.

Have finally managed to set the automation up. The clue is in the title to your video. It should say “This is great for STML but if you’ve got STML it’s too late." 😢 JK - it just took a lot of trial and error.

Thanks for this! I attend a group called headway, a brain injury charity, where nearly everyone has short term memory problems. I’m presenting ways to improve your life using technology, which is what I’ve been doing since my brain injury. I’ll find a way to put this in place, although the hardest but will probably be then remembering to look at the note🤣 I’m wondering if I could link a reminder to the note access get them to check the linked note once a day 🤔

@ProperHonestTech Год назад

That's awesome to hear, I'm glad that this information can be put to such good use. In terms of remembering, you could create an automation to open the Notes app at set times each day (same steps as shown in the video, but with the Notes app rather than the Reminders app), or as you say, create a recurring Reminder in the Reminders app.
