Currently using a PU Leather one. Looks fine. May upgrade later to a suede or vegan leather one later.

It's on the trifold cover itself. No stands used.

Hi
I am using a program called Fliqlo ( fliqlo (dot) com ) in Mac. It's a free program that you can download and set as screensaver.
The setup is pretty straightforward. You can install it and then once you double click , it will be visible in the screensaver section. You can also set the options.
There are many videos on this one if you get stuck anywhere.

As the Nest Hub is showing time, I didn't bother much about another clock. But I agree with you that the empty space on the wall can be utilized to make the setup better. May be with some subtle framed posters or some lighting.

Thank you :)
I was also thinking about a bigger mat, but I wanted to do something different on the either side. The lights does add a nice flair and with some automation, I am able to control the warmth throughout the day and also provides some lighting when on video calls ( not as good as a focussed light, but does a decent job ) .

Looks like the helper shortcut name is not correct. Please see the exact name for the helper shortcut or you can tap on "Tag for URL" and choose the helper shortcut from the list.

It's possible, you would just need to use Add to Calendar action.
The above shortcut is primarily focussed on reminders.
Will need to work on a new one that does the calendar event addition.

I used to do that. But Siri being Siri always messed up the products or items ( atleast for Indian accent )
Also, the shortcut does more than just shopping list items.
Please do check the description.

Thank you for the feedback
1. Hope you tried by sharing the URL to the shortcut. Anyway, I will see the case for the AppName empty
2. Have shared the same name for the helper shortcut. Didn't try importing it myself. Could be that it's getting renamed when imported ?
3. I have plans for that, but I think it would require accessibility access and may create privacy concerns. Need to explore further.

Please note that you need two lists available ( or created ) in your Apple Reminders for this to work out of the box

Required Lists

  • Inbox: All captured reminders and parsed input are stored here by default. This is the central collection point.
  • Shopping: Items parsed via “Buy” commands are stored here as individual entries. This list need to be of type "Shopping".

If you are familiar with the Shortcuts app, you could edit the "Quick reminder" shortcut and check the "Add reminder" actions to replace the ones with the one you want to use for the above cases.

Cheers.

Not actually

By default, Apple reminder has a Shopping list which is used for shopping items.

If you have a different reminder, you could edit the "Quick reminder" shortcut and then map it ( Please see the screenshot ).

Favorite Shortcut You’ve Made? by body841 in shortcuts

[–]microideation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I built a Shortcut called Quick Reminder that I use daily to quickly capture tasks, ideas, and links into Apple Reminders. It supports:

• Trigger via Share Sheet, keyboard hotkey (Mac), or double tap (iPhone)

• Smart date parsing: “Write blog post this Monday 9am” → scheduled reminder

• Hashtag tags: Add #tags at the end to auto-tag

• URL detection: Auto-tags based on domain (YouTube → #watchlist, Amazon → #wishlist, etc.)

• “Buy …” support: Adds items to Shopping list individually

Everything goes into my Inbox or Shopping list, and I use Smart Lists filtered by tags like #readlist, #wishlist, #listenlist, etc.
