    3:19 - Hi, Stephen! Thanks for your videos. There’s a way to share your the major part of the Shortcut’s automation. Instead to create a blank automation, you can use an existing Shortcut and run it using the automation parameter in this case the Bluetooth. In the automation, select “Run Shortcut” and you can save the hard work in the automations, and also share it. 😊

      Yes! You can do a "Get Current Date" Format it, and then an IF statement for AM/PM or specific times. I discuss and have a download link here: czcams.com/video/6rs8c4bnIUM/video.htmlsi=aYF5kAGc0wDUBpRy

    I’ve tried the Noise Cancelling By Location on both my iPhones 11 & 15 pro models and with different locations (home and work) and instead of going into transparency mode it goes straight to noise cancelling using iPod Pro 2.
    My script list looks exactly like yours on screen - with an added address - so I’m miffed to why it doesn’t work…

    This is great! Didn't know there were actions to switch AirPod modes! I have already added those actions into a couple of my outdoor running actions. I always want noise cancellation when running and then to switch back to Adaptive when I am done running. One question though... Is there a shortcut action to toggle Conversational Awareness? I also like to have that off when I am running... Thanks!!

    • @beardfm
      @beardfm  Před měsícem +1

      Nice! And I believe you can set Adaptive audio in that action, but the conversation awareness doesn't have granular control from what I can see.

    Regarding Spotify correct there is nothing by default but you could ask Siri to play a music or podcast and you will be able to find this action in shortcut. You need to configure your shortcut quickly because the action will disappear quickly.

    Is there a shortcut or automation that could restart the iPhone? Siri no longer can restart my phone for me and I know it’s important to do every so often. It would make it easier if there were a shortcut or automation instead of having to fully shut down and then turn back on manually.

    I want to create a shortcut that mutes the iPhone speaker when certain conditions are met-specifically, based on both location and time. If these conditions are satisfied, the iPhone's volume should be muted without affecting the playback destination, such as AirPods, if music is currently playing.

      There is a "Set Volume" action that can be used to set the Ringtone volume (which should affect notifications). Then you can create an automation that When AirPods are connects > Ringtone Volume set to 0%. And the opposite when disconnected!
