What’s your favorite Shortcut you use?
Chris please make a series of “shortcuts for dummies!” I can’t help but think it would be a hit since I keep looking for a detailed introduction to the topic and cannot find one.
No chapters? 😕
There wasn’t a short for it
@@RogerThatRob Hey Siri run chapters shortcut. - Siri "just a second, I'm having trouble connecting to the internet"
I love the shortcuts. That said I wish productivity systems didn’t need tons of different apps: things, drafts, obsidian, etc. there’s something to be said about simplicity. (And not having 15 app subscriptions!)
I only know how to use shortcuts on a fundamental level. You take this to extreme, and I’m glad you have the know-how to set all this stuff up.
@ChrisLawley With your video project shortcut for Things 3, can you include checklists (subtasks)? I'm looking to create something similar but now sure if you can automatically populate checklists when you run the shortcut.
Thanks for sharing. I don’t use shortcuts but enjoy learning about them. Blessings on your day.
Audio destination change by shortcut for the AirPods is very helpfull.
Only had that function in massiv shortcuts, so far.
Chapters please...🙏🏼
I’m always trying to figure out *when* I should be using a shortcut. I have two recurring emails a week. I have a couple of repeatable tasks, but I don’t know if having a shortcut form would make it any quicker.
I’d say this is ideal for having a shortcut. Especially if the tasks are associated with the emails. One shortcut could send the email and then create the task (or depending on your task manager) mark the task as completed
How did you do the copy all to clipboard step in obsidian with the rich text shortcut.
Btw my fav shortcut has to do with my phone connecting to my car and start a hotspot and start several apps.

for someone like you, this will be game changing. Trust me Chris!

how can i add actioncut
Is there a link to download the shortcuts.
Hey Chris.
I've been following your shortcut videos for a long time. Especially for use on the iPad.
I recently bought a Macbook and I still haven't found a way to run the shortcuts on the iPad through the Mac and vice versa.
Do you know if it's possible? If so, could you recommend me related content?
Thank you and congratulations on the content!
I’m not sure I follow. The Mac has the Shortcuts app on it already so you can just run a shortcut from the Mac app.
some are not compatible for the Mac. If you're trying to action a shortcut with actions that isn't compatible with Mac it wont run. @@ChrisLawley
Keyboard Maestro might provide some remote Shortcut capability for you. I have not tried it. I think it might be from iPad/iPhone to MacOS only though.
Not for iPad, for my iPhone I’ve created “Kansas” and “Oz” that take my phone to black and white and back again, respectively. Helps with phone addiction
Why would you go outside safari to link a page when reading list is a click away?
Reading list is fine, but it’s very barebones. There’s no good way for organizing links.
Can the video project shortuct support headings and sub tasks?
I'm also curious about this
I love shortcuts but find them difficult to make so I only do simple ones. The tech guys on TH-cam just assume we are all tech heads and everyone should understand how to make them.
Why do you prefer to have stage manager always on?
Cause it gives me more multitasking options.
I feel it consumes more battery than normal mode. Agree?
Chapters please
I like your videos but I hate that you never use chapters to help users navigate through the video! You are literally the only major creator I know who does this and it's such a pain to scroll through the whole video and look at previews coz most of the items in your videos are really really common and an average user does not wanna wait for 5 minutes into the video only to see cleanmymac on the list. Please use chapters! Let viewers decide which apps/shortcuts/items they wanna watch! No hate, but its very annoying and honestly makes me wanna close the video
Use Harpa. I'll put it into his comments so that you have it chaptered.
His task management makes me look like the one with ADHD.
Where did you get that finder logo? Even with a transparent background there‘s a white border around the logo, when I add it to homescreen 🥲
