TUTORIAL STEPS:
- First things first download some wallpapers you wanna switch between.
- Then, in the photos app, go to each wallpaper and hit the share button and add each one to it's own album that you can look up later in the shortcuts app: I named mine things like writing focus or photo editing focus.
- Next go into settings and focus and make sure you've got all your focus modes setup and ready to go — and make sure to enable any custom home screens you want for each focus.
- Then pop into the shortcuts app and create a personal automation.
- Scroll down and select one of your focus modes.
- Select when turning on.
- On the next screen select add action and search for and select "find photos."
- Choose add filter on the next screen and then choose the photos album with the wallpaper you want (that you should've setup earlier).
- Then at the bottom search for and select the "set wallpaper" action.
- Then hit the little arrow next to photos and turn off show preview and hit next and finally turn off ask before running and you're done.
- Now just repeat the process for all your focus modes and get your widget added (and I added the widget to all my focus home screens so I can easily bounce between them all).

Super productive apps, but in the end the only thing that's not productive in my environment, is me

I'm a new iPad owner and I've searched for tutorials for automated homescreen when switching modes so THANKS for that. Great Video

[burimalimi]

You’re explanations on how to build a shortcut are so good. So many other YouTubers just assume we know the basics and glance over these basics. Thanks for stepping through these Chris 😎👌🏼

[davidmelius]

I have a shortcut with that switches my wallpaper between about 30 different wallpapers that i downloaded and put into an album. I love it 😃i have it automated so that when ever plug or unplug my charger or whenever the battery hits a multiple of 10

[YouTubeUserLol]

This is probably the best iPad video on YouTube.

[GaryKlimeck]

My favorite parts although I enjoyed the entire video.

Streaks! I have several apps that I use that I need to check in with daily, and that awesome little app will help me stay on top of those items without having to go digging for them. Thank you for that little $4.99 nugget! Note for others, if you already have a streak going, you can go into the settings and mark the calendar to get you to the number of day you're already on! Additionally, it chooses appropriate icons for your tasks.

The whole tutorial part was really useful! I now have a Work, Bible Study and Entertainment Focus Modes and Wallpapers! Thanks

[BennyBoy_Alpha]

This is brilliant! I’m getting a new iPad Air 5 tomorrow and will be customising the Focus modes into oblivion. In love being organised!

[viktorfromsales]

I’ve seen a ton of iPad Home Screen productivity setups and feel like this is one I actually see myself using. Thanks for sharing 👏🏻

[jamesford]

I had been Poo-Pooing Focus Mode until this video. I had watched a few other podcasts about Focus Mode but none of them made the use of Focus Mode clear to me. Tying and showing the integration with shortcuts made it clear to me. You are one of my favorite podcasters.

[TheFredWay]

10:12 definitely do a more in-depth video walkthrough for the people with less automation and widget experience

Beautiful…I’m finally using this video as a “call to action”…that I’ve been avoiding for far too long!

[abiLLity]

I LOOOOVE your videos! You’ve totally helped me to level up my ipad performance. I do have a question tho! How do you set up your focus shortcuts in that neat little widget in the corner? I’ve been trying to figure that out and I just can’t. Please make a video explaining that part. Thank you so much!

[HenriquePradoHP]

Great tips, thank you!! The automation was my favorite part of the video

[michaelgreen]

The focus section caught my interest and I want to know more about focus!

[arthurcaves]

You have no idea how many times I had to rewatch this! I’m new on using an iPad as a working/productive tool. So I found your set up very interesting, but man! Setting up the shortcuts with the focus modes, almost made me throw it away!!! Lol. But I finally made it… Thanks a lot!! Great content, very helpful! HI from 🇲🇽

[lryt]

Haven't used digital 'Post it' for years. Thanks for reminding me of this app! The ability to share notes between devices is awesome!

[Jusangen]

Thank you for posting. It was quite the little escapade today setting all this up. It was a little hard to follow at times because one app was immediately jumped into affer another, but I appreciate you showcasing your setup and what the new OS is capable of. I'm sure folks have already pointed this out, but the new focus modes for iPhone allow you to link wallpapers to your foci. Best of luck and keep it up!
