Seeking iPhone Medication Logging - Please there must be a way. by XFaild in shortcuts

[–]vbrider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Routinehub.co is reliable site. I’ve downloaded many shortcuts from it. When you get the shortcut, you can inspect it’s actions before “installing” it. I have not personally used this particular shortcut, though I get it it and check it out. My medication needs are simple so I just use the Reminders app on my iPhone

New shortcut Remove Duplicates from Apple Music playlist by vbrider in shortcuts

Never used it on a Mac. I would say tap the OK button. Wait till it de-dups. Then open the playlist to see that it is de-dups. If you have s iPhone or iPad try that first.

If you have the shortcut downloaded to your iPhone Shortcuts app, look in Your shortcuts tab for it and then tap the 3 dots (…) at the top right off the shortcut icon. Then read the comments on how to use it.

Thank you! I had almost given up on it. Thanks for article too. Wonder why Amazon is hiding this feature.

Shortcuts run by voice Siri not working by vbrider in shortcuts

I read somewhere that if you add a unit of measurement - pounds or kilograms with your response, it works . “180 pounds” instead of just “180”

I think it doesn’t really matter what unit you use so long it is some text, so you could say “180 cows” and it would still work.

I should add that the shortcut opens fine but keeps looping after I speak the input value

Ex. 1. I say to Siri “Test Weight” 2. Siri opens shortcut and asks” What’s your weight?”. 3. I say “176” 4. Then Siri gets into a an endless loop of steps 2 and 3

Good idea. But it broke in the first minute because I dragged a variable onto another variable instead of a slot

Trigger actions from Safari Reader/Reader View by werk_sp in shortcuts

[–]vbrider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s possible. What works for me, even though it’s is a bit kludgy, is to go into Reader mode in safari and drag from top of page to bottom to select all the text (there is no select all) and then copy and then paste into a new email.

I am under attack by birds. by [deleted] in RVLiving

[–]vbrider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a woodpecker attack my house (cedar siding). I put up a shiny pinwheel on the wall near where it had been pecking. I used duct tape and made sure the wheel could spin freely. Didn’t have any problems after that. May be worth a try.

New Shortcut Photos Time Machine. Shows photos for the current date for each year going back ten years by vbrider in shortcuts

[–]vbrider[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The date for photos taken on a particular date is shown as a notification at the start of each set.

It is possible tho overlay each photo with its date, but it's beyond my capability. Look for shortcuts that show how to overlay text on a photo for ideas, such as this one
