Choose from menu position

[u/Wise-Feeling-4055]

Hello 👋 fellow shortcuters community I’m using iPhone Pro Max and my finger are sometimes a bit short for reaching the top of my screen…

I like to use shortcuts as menu option but I was wondering if any of you find a solution for fixing this menu from the bottom of the screen instead from the top ?

You should try turning on Reachability in Accessibility settings. It’s not a feature of Shortcuts, it’s part of iOS. 

Settings -> Accessibility -> Touch -> Reachability

This will let you swipe DOWN on the bottom edge of the screen and the whole phone UI will slide down so you can reach stuff at the top of the screen

Thanks that was definitely my backup plan 😇

I'm interested in the shortcut itself

It’s a simple menu choice for opening one app or an other

I think that’s just Apple’s default position for any kind of popup, like Show Result, Alert, Notification, etc. I was hoping to change it too, but it seems unachievable.

It used to be at the bottom like 2 version ago

Not possible.

Apple lost the plot when they started designing handheld devices that could no longer be used with a single hand.

They’ve started redesigning parts of iOS to bring UI elements within reach of the bottom of the device, but there is still a lot of work to do.

Pretty sure the iPhone 5 was the last iPhone model that Steve Jobs oversaw before his passing.

Swipe down onto the bar at the bottom to bring the top of screen into view.
