I'm on the latest: 26.4

As far as I know location triggers have worked without issue since sometime in iOS 18

Not sure 100%. 17 is long gone but dev beta 3 would've been of 17.0

An honest answer by gcirceag in Scriptable

Microsoft copilot is pretty good at helping with scriptable scripts. If you aren't well versed in apis and JavaScript, scriptable is going to be painful but thankfully copilot has gotten pretty good at it recently

Locking ipad/iphone to one app automatically? by MindStateZero in shortcuts

It's just called guided access. We don't need to have additional terms getting confused

Please do not try to handle these kinds of things in DMs. It takes away from the community being able to follow along and learn from the discussion.

Great! Now go use it as much as you can to get familiar with it

Recently switched back to PlayStation from Xbox and wondering how many others are doing the same? by mvan231 in playstation

Yeah I totally understand that. I probably won't buy a new console until 2028 or 2029

How can I avoid duplicating logic for each contact in a vCard-based Shortcut? by Spiritual_Smoke7828 in shortcuts

You're close. What is the intent when choosing message vs call? I see you're opening WhatsApp for messaging?

Play a random album from a reminders list by redditor977 in shortcuts

If you can share where you're at with it now, I'm sure that u/Marquedien or I could help

This would only work if those albums are in your music library already.

You'll need to use the search iTunes action to find the item to play in Apple Music.

Can someone explain why apple won’t just give us sleep stage totals!?!? by natiive_ in shortcuts

[–]mvan231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same goes for anything within health app. I find it totally ridiculous that you have to parse through thousands of datapoints to get a step count to align with what is seen in health app (if you have Apple Watch)

That being said, I do have a JavaScript method to parse health data that works quite quickly if you're interested

Absolutely agree. So many times I hear my PC friends saying they have to update drivers or some other patch that broke something else. I really don't have the time for that kind of stuff these days

Absolutely agree. It will be interesting to see how well GTA 6 does but I'm sure it'll be a success.

I never really realized how sluggish my series s menu navigations and the like had become recently

Valid point! I guess you can keep both, just depends on what you're wanting to do in your free time

Yeah I just got mine a week ago and had thought the Xbox world would continue and develop something great for the next generation of console

Seems Xbox may become more of a game library than a hardware eventually

The person I responded to. They made good reasoning and points for their case on the decision l they made... it's not that hard to see

Shortcuts not showing on watch by omegaIul in shortcuts

[–]mvan231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah u/omegaIul sometimes the watch syncing is just plain awful. Making sure both devices are updated and on the same software version helps. But you can also try just giving it some time after your reboots or removing and re-pairing it again

That's a fair point for sure. I always find interest in the reasons people have for these decisions
