It's easy. Create a shortcut for the volume. Media volume 0 ringing volume 0. ←If you tap this shortcut, all volumes will be 0. To return the volume, the media volume is 50 and the incoming volume is 50. ←Tap this shortcut to return.
I have two questions 1.Can you make a shortcut for turning on hotspot with timer so it turns off on its own 2.can you make a shortcut with nfc that triggers when placed near it and triggers again when you take it away from it Exmple - when im going to sleep i place my phone on a nfc that triggers low power mode then when in wake up and take the phone low power mode turns off on its own

Hi! Love your videos! I have a request. My wife is a pre school teacher and she has to take a lot of photos of the kids with her phone, and she keeps complaining about having to manually sort all of the pics. I created a shortcut that lets her take pics, say the name of the kid, and it will find/create a folder with the kid’s name and save the picture in there. But I could only make it work by taking only one picture or having to choose how many pics you’re going to take before hand… Do you know what to do about that? Thanks a lot!

Can you create a shortcut that shuffles a playlist but does not repeat the artist? Or spaces out songs from an artist? The one thing I dislike about Apple's and Spotify's shuffle feature is that sometimes they play songs from the same artist back to back. I'm wondering is a shortcut can do this.
That's a tough one! I don't think that's possible as Shortcuts doesn't have a mechanism for controlling a playlist that's already going (besides play / pause) or an automation trigger to say "look for songs by X"
Hi, Stephen! I want to ask you if there’s a way to add NFC card and use it with automation for example? Is there a way to scan the reciever nfc, and if the reciever is scanned, scan the card to unlock it? Like if there’s an NFC reciever somewhere and i want to use automation to scan that card.

Regarding the alarm by shift. Why not calculate the time when the alarm should go off instead of setting a specific time? I mean, when working in shifts you usually need an alarm at different times on different days.

Love the idea of the Shift alarm but it would be better if the alarm is set for say an hour before shift starts rather than a set time.

It's not possible at this time to name a timer directly via shortcuts, but if using the screen is okay then actions exist to copy the name of the timer you want, open the timers screen on Clock app, and then the only thing needed is to select the timer created via Shortcut and paste its name in via the action which copied it to the clipboard.
