I always learn at least one helpful thing from your videos. Thank you!
That 2 finger tap to open a link in a new tab is amazing! Thanks!

@@kunalnanavati ah. I’ll have to wait for it to happen then. In which case, I wonder what other settings don’t really apply when ticked…
Tip 1 solution: You can say “add this to my VIDEO list” instead of “remind me about this” and it will be added to the correct reminders list.

I do this one for my Grocery List. Tip- don’t have “list” in the list title. Otherwise Siri asks which list.
Well you got me again. I was sure I’d know all of the tips you were going to go over in this vid but nope….there were two I was unaware of despite being an iPhone user for 14 years. Nice job as always. I learn something every time I watch one of your videos. You truly make it so easy. Thanks !

exactly.. I've always started his videos with the same idea in my mind and he's always showing something interesting.. This video has brought a lot of features I was unaware of
If only I could remember HALF the tips you provide regularly. THANK YOU!
Your latest newsletter is spot-on! My husband and I agree with you wholeheartedly about devices becoming obsolete and unusable. Your videos are always a wealth of information although we are seasoned MAC and IOS users! This video like others is outstanding! We support your channel and are glad we do so, as we could not easily gather all the information you provide. Thank you so much!
Amazing and informative video. Having used iPhones for the last 10 years, I learned a couple of new things.
I love when you do these videos, most of the time I dont’ get thru all of them but started to email them to my inbox and i watch them when I am at my desk at home
Love your videos. Always so informative and helpful. There’s always at least one new tip. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Please do a post on the apps you use on your iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Your videos are consistently useful and well paced. Thanks 👍
This is one of the most helpful videos I’ve seen so far this year. That photo to email drag feature a is top tier gem
I’m beginning to love reminders, timers and lists since I finally caved and bought an apple watch. I always learn useful information from your videos and look forward to the newsletters you produce. Thank you!
As usual awesome content
Soooo much to learn!! I love there are tons of 'surprises' with my phone.
Once again ! Great video !!! Love it man !
As always, very informative. Thanks for the new tips.
Great video. Hope for more of such to come. Thank you!
Wow. Got several good tips from this one. Thank you! I find your videos to always be the most informative.
Ooh! Templates on reminder could be a game changer for me! Thanks!
Keep making videos like these, very helpful! thank you
I always learn something new from your videos! Thank you!
Cheers!! Always find these videos useful!
Always the most helpful videos! 👏 Thanks for sharing :)
I’ve used an iPhone since the second generation and definitely learnt a few useful things - thank you so much. Your videos are always informative.
So informative! A big thank you!
The Drag and Drop tip was amazing! Thanks ❤
Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication! Your videos are incredibly helpful and informative. You're truly the best KZreadr out there, and I always look forward to your new content. Keep up the fantastic work! 🙌🎉
Always learn something new from these videos. Cheers
Some excellent content here. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this incredibly helpful information! Even the promotional section was useful and very well done. I'm going to check out Magical AI now.
Thank you , very helpful tips
Great tips. Some I knew but forgot or never made use of, but most were new to me. Thanks.
Thank you - such a helpful video!
Always learn something I can actually use!
I always enjoy your videos.
Very useful tips thank you
So useful. Thank you
I love this video, thanks Tom! I appreciate that your video format is set in such a way that it doesn't into the dynamic island on my 14 Pro. :)
Ah, great stuff!
Thanks! Decent advice!
I'm glad you're including tips that everybody has known about for a long time because i've never heard of them!
Simply brilliant
Didn’t know the calendar time thing, that’s great, thanks!
Now this was a helpful video.
Stacks! whough! Thanks for that!
Love seeing Craft notes on your phone! Been a Craft user for a few years and love it but am always trying to decide if it would be better to use Notes and be fully in the Apple ecosystem. Maybe a video on Craft vs Notes app? Thanks!
Great tips thanks. I use the I-calendar as a database for all repeated events such as entering specific information in the note box, such as costs, vehicle maintenance/servicing, medical information, links, etc. Information can be accessed by key words entered in the cal search bar. When any event is due again all the previous year/s history or information is there too 👍
Great video
Love this! 🎉
Excellente video !! ❤
It is long overdue for the “delayed send” feature to be added to the messages app.
Awesome!
thank you my friend. I definitely learned something new here. most of us have overpowered devices but a selection of us tend to only utilise less than 50% of its capabilities
Nice job! 👏👏🤣
Schedule send- my coworker calls this a “ninja send”!
Drag & Drop Bonanza, thanks!
Regarding "remind me of this": You can say "remind me of this on my such-and-such list" and the reminder will be added to a specific list. I use it regularly, but it doesn't work flawlessly. For example, Siri can't seem to add things to my "calls" list. It thinks I'm asking to put it on my Kohl's list. I've practiced saying it a dozen different ways, but to no avail. Great tip regarding setting the time with the number pad in the Calendar App. Great tip about using two fingers to open a webpage in the background.
Oh may, you have been busy. I am vacationing in France. I will check out all four videos next month when I return to the states. We need help with the Apple Vision Pro too. I heard UK sells start soon. Keep it up, we depend on your insights.
How to sync the REMINDERS and NOTES across all devices so that I can be more productive? Thank you for this useful video.
Instead of “remind me about this” can’t you say “add this to my videos list”? I do that all the time and it’ll put it in whatever list I say
You can create a shortcut, create reminder from url clipboard - then add tags - then add the shortcut to the share sheet. Then next time you want to save the website to your reminders app, just click the share icon, it will add the tags, and then filter to your Smart Folder as mentioned in the video.
How interesting
2 tap on link, and the calendar time entry was new to me!
Drag and drop! 🤯🤯🤯
Can you give us a tutorual on shortcuts that allows us to immediately access our iclouds private emails. It's so annoying having to go to settings > icloud account > icloud > private emails > finding the email. Can we get something that goes straight to it. Especially for the desktop version!
You don’t actually need the tags. You can just say to Siri, “Remind me about this in….” And then say the name of the reminders list. It’ll put it straight in there.
omg I've been doing my packing list in Notes and have to unchecked everytime I was packing. Or is there a way to uncheck all the checklist on notes?
I don't see the drop down or the option for 'List type.' Is there a setting I need to enable to see it?
It's been a while since last office/desktop walk-through and your setup has changed a bit in last couple of years . I was intrigued by the audio device you have just in front if keyboard and can't work out what device it is.
Lip Sync at 14:19 is why I love this channel!

what do you mean? to me it looks like he is talking normally
I had the App Store setting off for ratings and reviews but still get those popups 😢
OK so for some me start by saying I absolutely love your videos and I look for every single one when it comes out and spend some time absorbing. But I do have a question. I am trying to use templates Apple notes but the strange thing is I’m not finding anything about templates anywhere on there. Not when I created a new list not when I’ve already created the list. Nowhere. I googled it and it said I had to create a shortcut first. Help!
I may have a tricky question for you regarding productivity 😂, I use Apple notes on my iPhone , on my iPad , on my MacBook quite often , most of the time it’s for shopping lists , occasionally other stuff . One thing we people can do with just a sheet of paper or writing pad , is when we are writing a shopping list is we can pull out a bunch of our highlighting texta’s and Color a word , or a sentence or even a whole paragraph for reference later just to simply remind us of the importance of what we have made a different Color . I have tried many times to find a way to do this in apple notes , with no success. To me it seems like a basic function a notes app should have . I’d love to know your thoughts on this . Cheers .
I’ve started using the Reminders app more after your videos on using the app. However, one thing really frustrates me - I cannot get the custom location feature to work. The button appears to be greyed out yet pressing on it gives you a dialogue box with a list of locations had a search box with a map dialogue underneath. However, there is no way to drag the pin to a custom location and choosing a pin location from the list doesn’t change anything when you go back to the reminder. It remains on any previously selected non-pin location. Is this a bug or is it me? :-) How I would like it to work is to be able to choose one of the locations from the list or drag the pin somewhere on the map and use that location for when I arrive or leave it, Thoughts?
Hello, I admire you and I’m following you since a long time on my other account and I currently have a dilemma : I bought the iPhone 15 Pro changed it for the same one as the battery couldn’t even last a day ( for only Instagram and WhatsApp stuff ) at the end I’ve decided to give it back to Apple so I have a gift card with a value that can offer me a new IPhone. I currently have an iPhone 13 Pro Max but the battery can’t last so long, what would you do, invest on a new battery and case for around 150$ and wait for the 17 pro or even 18 pro. Or wait for the 16 pro ? Thanks
I wish they would add contacts app to the messages menu. Not sure why it's not there.
One thing I *wish* we could do is automatically run an automation when we change focus state. For example I have a "night time" automation that turns all the lights, etc off. and I wish I could have it automatically run when I change to the "sleep" focus mode rather than do both tasks separately. Super annoying. Or the other way round would be fine i.e. when I run the "night time" automation it sets my focus mode to "sleep". Never found a way to make it work though. Seems so obvious but seemingly not possible. Weird.

@@satysin630 I'm on ios 17, when in the shortcuts app > automation > "+" (new automation) scroll almost to the bottom of the list and you should see your focus modes as options for the trigger. Select one, tap ""next", you can then choose "when turning on" or "when turning off" and whether or not to require confirmation. For your situation, I would make a "regular" shortcut to turn off the lights, then have the automation run that shortcut. Sorry I can't help with the "scenes" part of the setup- I haven't figured that part out yet either! Hope this helps you get started!
How do I make a grocery list my default list when I click on reminders on my watch. Every time it goes default today's reminders rather than the grocery list I want to access?
@l-_-ls

Idk abt watch, but with an iPhone you can have a widget for your reminder list. It asks you which list you want when you set up. Tap and your in the list. Maybe you can make a widget on your watch the same way.
Apple mail remind me feature fails when you have too many reminders added. Mail app even hangs when you have too many reminders added. Have you noticed this?
Actually, for tip # 1, here is the phrasing I suggest that adds it to a specific list: "Add this to my Content Creation List". Note that I was unable to make this work with phrases like "Add this to my Video Ideas list" or "Videos list"-I suspect Siri is less certain about how to process words like "video" which might suggest another action is more appropriate... At any rate, my recommended phrasing also works to add things to whatever list you want, e.g. "Add apple juice to my grocery list".

My dates are round but it's the round circle highlighting today's date or the date I've selected. Today's date is highlighted in red. A selected date is highlighted in black.
first one not working for some reason. :(
But simple things like, ‘Siri, tell me when my phone battery is fully charged’ Siri cannot do it. Useless!
The iPhone productivity tips were truly awesome! Although, I'm a bit puzzled. I vaguely recall the specific video but you showed how Siri can identify songs playing on third-party apps, but when I tried it, it didn't quite work out. Could you kindly walk me through the process? That would be fantastic! 📱🎶
Great video. About #1 about adding a Safari page to Reminders, you can just say “Add this to my Video Ideas list. Thanks for all the great content!
