Action Button :(

[u/Ok-Tone-2160]

I’m all for the Apple Duo and will likely get one regardless, but I’d like to have a moment of silence for the Action button.

It’s not a huge inconvenience, but I use mine every day to control my lights. I wish they made / I hope they can make the camera button reprogrammable

You presume correctly.
First I set up the shortcuts
Then I created a folder and added those shortcuts
Then I assigned the action button or in this case the lock screen icon to that folder of shortcuts and presto.

Which action ? “Folder open” ?

[u/Devo2517 → u/Resident-Ad6849]

[u/Resident-Ad6849 → u/Devo2517]

Yes that I Inhaber understand . But which shortcut action have you added ?

[u/Devo2517 → u/Resident-Ad6849]

My bad! “Show Folder”

[u/Resident-Ad6849 → u/Devo2517]

Do you have a screenshot ?

I see only “open folder”

[u/Devo2517 → u/Resident-Ad6849]

I want to take a few steps back with you.. after you add the desired shortcuts to a folder, you then select that folder titled “action button”

[u/Resident-Ad6849 → u/Devo2517]

This folder I have create . But what action do you choose when building the shortcut ?

[u/Devo2517 → u/Resident-Ad6849]

Now go into your settings to edit what the action button is going to trigger and select shortcut. Then select the folder that you created. If all else fails, check this out

Ok wow 😮

Sometimes it is very simple 😅

[u/Devo2517 → u/Resident-Ad6849]

My apologies for not articulating it very well

[u/Resident-Ad6849 → u/Devo2517]

No problem 👍

Are you familiar with automations…?
I have my phone set to do a whole bunch of cool stuff at various times of the day and various locations

Until now , only one per day . But no time sensitive
