5:26 Tip: Set Volume needs to be AFTER play action, otherwise it will default to changing the volume of your device rather than of the HomePods. Love the video!

I would never have thought about using automations to change my watch faces! That's awesome!

[kingjulien]

quick feedback: use some visual transitions between sponsored and regular video sections. This was a bit harsh and I was bit confused what and when ended / started.

the nerd energy in this video is so wholesome 😁❤️👍

Seems like a lot of these shortcuts could be done as fast or faster just doing the task or using Siri. I don’t need to create a shortcut to add a calendar event when I can tell Siri to do it.

Will you go through things 3.17 shortcuts update?

Thanks for this video, I have started using Shortcuts Versioning.

[DjangoGroen]

My playback destination shortcut works great. I have it on my action button in my 15 pro max

I just started using Dark Noise yesterday! Been enjoying it so far. I actually made a shortcut that lets me pick a “zone” from the game Taiji, and it will play a mix I have in Dark Noise and play the soundtrack for that specific zone.

I would like to know how to make it possible to automatically start playing a video or mp3 audio file at a certain time. Not necessarily in the built‑in Apple apps. Anyhow.

i got one of those wallets in 2019 and the little push tab snapped off after 2 months and i had to cut the wallet open with a Dremel to get my cards out...

[AndrewPost]

When I attempt to use the Shortcuts Versioning shortcut, it gives me the error message "The file 'Backup' couldn't be opened because there is no such file." How do I fix this?

[chriscardoso]

Looks like Spotify doesn’t allow you to use shortcuts for playlists 😢

Hi Chris, great video. Thanks! I don’t see the Apple Watch face shortcut available to download?

12:28 How to configure the bag checklist shortcut so that

1. The Keys in the dictionary become headings in a particular Things Project

and
2. The values within particular keys become the To Do items under the headings?
Any help would be great! Thanks a lot!

I’ve just found shortcuts to be frustratingly too unstable in general. Actions that I think don’t require too much memory will return an error notification maybe once ever 5 runs. The whole shortcuts experience to me just feels too rough.

I've used a wake up automation for years that triggers after I stop an alarm to play a podcast (ABC NEWS). The podcast exists and plays fine manually through the Podcast app, but in the last few months the shortcut gives an error that it couldn't find the podcast. I've rebuilt the shortcut several times and have the same issue. Anyone know how I might be able to fix it?

[mrkleverapps]

Pretty impressive on shortcuts front. Thanks for sharing.
😎👍🏻

Looking for shortcut which is doing the following:

Is there a way to play music directly from HomePod Mini using shortcut? With the "Change playback destination" option, the music comes from the iPhone and we play on HomePod Mini. But I would like to build a shortcut that plays music on the Homepod directly from a menu.

And suggestions?

I just realized Panera has a shortcut to place an order. Do you know if it’s possible to place an order for a coffee of soft drink and it will recognize that your part of the unlimited drink club. I was able to get it to place an order but it looks like it’s trying to charge me when checking out.

[sudharsanbalasubramaniam]

Hey Chris, the links to the shortcuts are broken. Is there any other way to get them?
