The fact that Americans have to tip restaurants is so bad. Food is expensive enough without paying the employee's wages too

My favourite automation (for now) is getting an empty note on my homescreen each day. Its very handy to quickly write something down. Especially on iPad.

Love the nfc use. We have been using them for shopping lists. But the tracker is a brilliant idea 🎉

The shortcut I use regularly is: Boiling eggs I programmed it like this: Click Boil eggs Choose: hard, medium or soft egg And then it sets the right timer for me!

Thanks Sergio! Keep up the good work!

Very good video, thx. 👍🏼 Would love if you had chapters, so if a shortcut is known to me I could skip to the next one etc.

I personally really like the focus mode feature that lets you have separate home screens, along with a similar automation setup to yours. I have a main home screen that has a few of my most used apps and then various more specialized home screens that can be accessed with the different focus modes. Might be a little extra, but I really like it.

My most used automation is to trigger low battery mode when charge decreases below 50% (and vice versa), definitely slowing down deterioration of my battery

@@somethingsafootYes, he is correct, there are some KZread videos explaining why low power mode kills your battery. You should only activate it when the charge drops below 20%. To maintain the device battery health the best way is to keep the battery percentage between 20-80.

if you aren’t worried about data usage you can turn off wifi and then keep data on but turn off that specific app’s cellular data accessibility so that way you still have internet but no ads on the app

Thanks for sharing the video, Sergio. I found a few ideas worth trying. One of them is to use NFC tags for the medication. Unfortunately I cannot find an action in Shortcuts app to log one. The closest is the Log a Health sample, however among the types there seems nothing like medication. Could you please elaborate on your method?

Before setting up the automation of turning off wifi and Bluetooth when I leave my house as shown in the above, I had set up a focus mode which automatically use to trigger based on reaching a particular location. Now after setting up the automation the focus mode doesn’t turn on when I reach that particular location. Please help.

The When to Leave is useless. Your calendar can already do that. Also no point setting up automation for focus modes. Focus mode already does that in Settings - it lets you choose when they get activated. Don’t need to invent the wheel in Shortucts.

How can I automate following query using SHORTCUT app in iPhone 13 pro "When I shoot a photo or video, it should be automatically add into specific album[other than "Recent"] in Photos app" isn't it life saver!

Just wondering, what’s the point of the WiFi QR code one if you have to find the WiFi password and put it in the shortcut every time you want to turn it into a QR code, at that point you might as well just make them type the password instead of you.

If the iPhone is supposed to be so great, why do we have to turn our cell service off when we get home when the stupid phone should know that when you have a chance to use Wi-Fi never use cellular. What the heck this is the dumbest thing I ever heard.

@OriginCorey

2 ай бұрын

It does already do this. He is ensuring the phone doesnt accidentally switch over to cellular should he go out of range of his router or if its broadcast gets interrupted, or if the wifi service signal drops below the signal level of the cellular signal which would prompt an automatic switch over. Not to mention the active monitoring of all that in the background takes battery life.

You need to decrease your talking speed. Coupled with your heavy Spanish accent, it’s difficult to understand what’s being said. Also zoom in the camera when explaining automations, else it’s difficult to understand steps involved in automation.
