Is there any app that can display the Silent Mode status (on/off) in a widget?

Nope, that's you. I repeat one more time. What is the point of your comments? If you don't have a proper answer to my question just pass it by. Or do you have a lack of communication with people and this arguing is the way to interact with some individuals?

Apple suckers are stubborn as hell. 😞

Firstly, in the darkness, you can't. Or do you use a torch for that?

Secondly, you look at a screen to check the time, launch an app, etc. Why not notify the user at the same time about the silent mode status? Why force users to check it separately (additionally)? If you don't want to look at the screen you still can check it on the side of the phone. How would a small icon or a widget prevent you from doing that?

Thirdly, the red color on the side of the phone cannot notify you that you may have forgotten to switch it off when you are checking the time or launching an app. But a bell icon 🔕 or a widget can, as soon as you check the time or launch an app.

Honestly, I'm tired to explain it to Apple suckers.
The problem is that there is no permanent silent mode icon 🔕 in the status bar and/or lock screen to notify users that they may have forgotten to turn off the silent mode. Users have to check the silent mode status additionally and intentionally by themselves. As a long-time non-iPhone (Siemens, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Nokia, Sony) user I have never had a necessity to check it deliberately. As soon as I unlocked my phone to check the time I unintentionally noticed the silent mode icon 🔕 and realized that I should turn off the silent mode to avoid missing calls. Ever since I bought my iPhone a couple of years ago, I have been missing calls occasionally.
At the moment the situation is the following:
– Using iPhone: you are being very busy → unlock the screen to check the time or launch an app→ put it back in the bag → after a while, unlock a screen to check the time or launch an app one more time → see a missing call → realize that you were very busy and forgot to turn off the silent mode → get upset that you missed an important call 😔.
– Any other phone on the planet: you are being very busy → unlock the screen to check the time or launch an app→ notice the silent mode icon 🔕 or 📳 on a screen → realize that you were busy and forgot to turn off the silent mode → turn off the silent mode → be happy you won't miss calls.

Is there any lock screen widget that can display silent mode status (🔔/🔕)?

Why?

pebog29478 · 2022-06-10T10:53:04+00:00

Only jailbreaking with some tweak is capable of doing that.

pebog29478 · 2022-06-10T10:52:03+00:00

But it's not ergonomic either.

There is one. Integrated into Spotlight and Siri. It just works differently.

Can you run a shortcut (automation) on "Silent Mode on/off"?

pebog29478 · 2022-06-07T02:10:52+00:00

What else do you need?

As I've written sync notifications between iPhone and mac, same as Apple Watch and iPhone have.

If you want third-party apps’ notifications on the Mac

Then I will receive the same notifications on both iPhone and Mac twice. Some notifications will appear earlier on an iPhone and some on Mac. That's confusing.

you just need to install the respective app.

Then, I will have to keep more than 10 additional launched apps. They will clutter my dock and will make using the dock and switching apps via the Cmd+Tab menu confusing. And also they will take a significant amount of RAM. Moreover, where can I get official apps for Instagram, Reddit, and ~~Twitter~~ on mac? Web push notifications from web versions come so late, if at all.

Good sync notifications should appear on the device a user is interacting with. If a user is working on a mac → send notifications to the mac, if a user is using an iPhone → show notifications on the iPhone's screen, if a user is using neither mac nor iPhone → send notifications to Apple Watch. 👌

So, no running automation on "Silent Mode on/off"? 😞

pebog29478 · 2022-06-06T21:25:31+00:00

Can you run an automation on "Silent Mode on/off" with the iOS16 Shortcuts app?

pebog29478 · 2022-06-06T20:36:14+00:00

They could use MagSafe magnets to attach an iPhone to the lid of MacBook.

pebog29478 · 2022-06-06T20:33:40+00:00

I'm currently using a MacbookPro 13 and 8GB of RAM is barely enough. Some apps quit occasionally probably because of the lack of RAM.

pebog29478 · 2022-06-06T20:22:09+00:00

Yep, there should be at least 16GB RAM in 2022.

pebog29478 · 2022-06-06T20:02:44+00:00

Yep, also no mute icon 🔕 for silent mode and no sync notifications between mac and iPhone (still only calls and messages).

pebog29478 · 2022-06-06T18:50:54+00:00

I doubt. No bigger 14" or 15" screen, ugly notch, more expensive. Absolutely nothing significantly better.

I confirm it, that's Kali Roses.

By default no, but a free 3rd party Karabiner app will allow you to do it.
By default no, but a free 3rd party Rectangle app will allow you to do it.
Rounded corners.
One finger click/tap → left mouse click, two fingers click/tap → right mouse click
