10 Genius Apple Shortcuts to Simplify Your Life

Apple Shortcuts were made to simplify your life, by automating actions you otherwise would take time to do manually. The 10 Apple Shortcuts I discuss in the video are life hacks that I use on the regular and instead of gatekeeping these I decided to share them all with you!

All but 1 of these shortcuts were created by me, so if you would like to support the channel then please like, comment, or subscribe for more future tech videos!

Here are all the shortcut links if you would like to use them for youself!

Great shortcuts! Only thing missing is this video is segments by time stamps. :)

I like the social media timer shortcut. I only use instagram, but this will still be super helpful, thanks!

Thanks Anthony. Is there a way to switch notifications of a particular App on for a specific period? For example, if I'd like to automatically have notifications for outlook turned on during work times (9am to 5pm) and off otherwise. Any help?

Can you help me add text from the apple notes app titled "Todo"? I'd like to also include items on the note in mine. I tried it myself but couldn't quite get it.

These are great! I added the tip/split/pay and it's great! Question - when I view a payment in the history and click OK, there is a pop up that says "Shortcut Not Found; Make sure a valid shortcut is selected in the Run Shortcut Action". Is there a way to fix?

Great vid bro. Sorry I am new to all of this. I am looking for an automation that will wake me up, tell me the date, notify me of calendar events and drive time to such events. Once I can figure that out I am wanting to connect it to my smart lights so it will turn colors based off my drive time as to when I have to leave. Any suggestions? Thank you again for your vid. It was very well done.

Hi, Anthony, great tips. I am having a difficult time setting up an automation with the “if” condition. It doesn’t seem to work. I’m trying to set an automation to activate “do not disturb” and block all notifications when the Alexa app on my iPhone is playing a book to me. The problem is that I want to have do not disturb if the app is on and when I close the app the automation should turn off automatically the do not disturb mode. I tried to use the “if” condition so that “if” app is opened do not disturb is on and “if” app is closed do not disturb is off. The “if” condition doesn’t seem to work. Can you help? Thank you.

I honestly forgot this thing existed when I got my iPhone 13. Don’t bully me I just use my phone for work, music and shows, investing.

Hey great video! Can you make a shortcut that does an hourly chime? I have this feature on my digital watch. I’d rather have it on my phone.
