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!
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.
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 UA-cam 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.
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.
i’m guessing you put them on the lids/packaging of stuff in the kitchen and you tap them to add it to the list? if so, do you just move them when you get new stuff or what haha
Mine is based off of automated focus modes along with device orientation. The best example I have is in sleep focus the button will toggle my flashlight. And if my phone is horizontal (on the charger) it toggles my bedside lamp.
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
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!
The video that I didn't know I needed 🤯 Your video production and presentation is slick - don't change anything 👍 What is the device thingy on the table to the bottom left of your phone?
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?
I am trying the same stuff but according to Apple forums, there is no way to log a medication through shortcuts right now. Let's send apple some feedback on that.
My wife is Chinese and I can attest that is indeed the case in most Asian cultures! I've had someone pretend they were going to the bathroom just to pay the bill!
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.
The QR code for Wi-Fi is confusing. When I use Siri it’s always asking me for the Wi-Fi name & password. What’s the point if I’m getting the QR code to avoid saying the password?
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.
How can I create a shortcut that rings a notification sound when I unlock the screen? (i am building a nook phone) I am able to reproce a sound before opening the app, I wish I could trigger sound when touching the screen as well…
I have 2 shortcuts that I used: One that turns off wifi,Bluetooth and Hotspot at the same time. The other one is an automation that sends message to my contact when my battery is fully charged so they can tell me to get my phone
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.
Wow...😁 Today's life is full of energy and smart..mm Technology i will have to learn it...i use to ask my self , what is this shortcut. Witch i never touch before..
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.
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.
It's hard to please everyone, I also think i speak too fast but then I also get comments saying they watch me at 1.5 speed. Also, I can't even speak Spanish 😅

The fact that Americans have to tip restaurants is so bad. Food is expensive enough without paying the employee's wages too
The fact Europeans bag their own groceries is just as crazy
Self checkout has been a thing for a while
@@cattjohnson9982or you Americans are just lazy fucks
In Europe you pay for a toilet, and no-one even wipes your ass for you!!!
@@ibsn87Have we been to the same Europe? I’ve never needed to pay 😅

Low battery mode is actually kills your phone

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

"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!
« When (camera) is (opened) » + « Get (number) most recent pictures » + « Save (most recent pictures) in (folder name) »
That should do it
The video that I didn't know I needed 🤯
Your video production and presentation is slick - don't change anything 👍
What is the device thingy on the table to the bottom left of your phone?
Thank you! :) That device is my fiancee's Airpods Max. They look good on overhead shots 😅

Had to smile when he showed the bill split for Restaurants. In many cultures, Splitting the bill is unseen. We usually fight who can pay lol.
My wife is Chinese and I can attest that is indeed the case in most Asian cultures! I've had someone pretend they were going to the bathroom just to pay the bill!
I tried to set up automation of shortcuts to do things in homekit when I arrive or leave home, but they never worked - at least not consistently.
Create a video about focus modes too!!!
It's on the list :)
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.
Under the config settings you can predefine your password
Where is that setting? I cannot find the option and it will be very useful to be able to do it to use the shortcut
@@lancerevo1983 Press "show more" on the option "What is your Wi-Fi Name" and "What is the password for SSID". You'll find a "default answer"
If the guest can see wifi info then they will be able to see the password.
I used it to generate the QR image that I printed out and put on my fridge. Mind blowing! Thank you Sergio!!!
The QR code for Wi-Fi is confusing. When I use Siri it’s always asking me for the Wi-Fi name & password. What’s the point if I’m getting the QR code to avoid saying the password?
click wifi and click see password and you can see any wifi you have connected to
"How much is the damage?" 🤣
Checking out your channel, and you have some really helpful videos here!
I'm glad! :)

How do I get the switch between wallpaper automation
Can’t seem to find it
I have setup an automation to clear the alarm list from disabled alarms at a given time. At least this way I avoid this mess 1:28
I actually enjoy the mess 😅 unless it gets to the point that its every other minute!
Obrigado Sérgio!! Ótimo trabalho (sempre)!!
Obrigado! :) 💪

I can feel the world opening up. Incredible video. Easy sub.
Just saw this! Thank you so much :)
This is super handy! Unfortunately I can’t get the ETA text to work
Why do I cannot download shortcuts on my iPhone 11..it does not download…pls help
Ask someone with the app in their phone to share it with you.
Thanks Sergio! Keep up the good work!
I have 2 shortcuts that I used:
One that turns off wifi,Bluetooth and Hotspot at the same time.
The other one is an automation that sends message to my contact when my battery is fully charged so they can tell me to get my phone
What if i want to use a different currency in the tip/split shortcut?
Just enter the amount as if it were USD, then convert the shared amount

Epic video Sergio, your content is so good!!! Please keep making iOS/macOS/PKM videos :D
Thanks Jeremiah :) Super grateful for your support!!
Some of the Shortcuts are no longer on iCloud :-(
Really? They all show up for me, which one doesn't for you?
@@FromSergiothe Wi-Fi QR shortcut is no longer in the menu
Show the automation
thx
Wow...😁 Today's life is full of energy and smart..mm Technology i will have to learn it...i use to ask my self , what is this shortcut. Witch i never touch before..
Very good info in this video, thank you!
Thank for sharing Gentleman 👌
Nice Tesla btw!

Can these automations be able to make a custom apps ? Been having the banner and its really annoying
Your IQ is above Einstein’s, of that I’m sure. If I at least have half of it I’ll be good but by the end of this video it’s pretty clear I don’t.
CAN I EDIT YOUR youtube VIDEOS?

@@FromSergio hard to please everyone indeed, 2x was still intelligible for me and i didn't even notice the accent 😅
Skill issue lol
Your speaking speed is just fine. I think a lot of people can't process audio too fast. I myself get bored with slow speakers. Your pace is good.
