Just some shortcuts for iOS I wanted to share.
Thanks for checking out my first attempt at shortcuts for iOS! So far, I have a few that I’ve made. The first two I'm sharing I made for when I drive for Uber. When I accept a new passenger I always find myself doing the same tasks so I set these up to automate the process. The music one I made to make a QR code for songs in apple music, for sharing with friends and for my DayOne journal, hopefully, DayOne shortcuts coming soon!
You can download this repo to Working Copy and open the binary file using the sharing option (I find the best luck from the Files app) or click/copy the iCloud URL to open in Shortcuts.app and save to your device. I've added .toml files, where available, which can be used with python-shortcuts in case you want to customize, edit or borrow snippets for use in a text editor and compile them yourself!
Siri command: "Hey Siri, I have a passenger"
What it does: Plays Duran Duran Radio, Toggles DND on, sets display brightness to a generally tolerable level (except in bright sunlight), sets system volume to high and launches the Uber Driver app in case you had a different application open. I updated the shortcut to toggle WiFi off because when connecting to an open network, (say the phone connects to a Starbucks when at a light) trips may fail to accept while your phone may not have disconnected from the network yet and lose the ride.
Siri command: "Hey Siri, no more passengers"
What it does: Plays podcasts, toggles DND off and opens Waze, my preferred navigation app.
Note: Shortcuts doesn’t currently have a glyph for Uber so I used the Pied Piper symbol cuz it makes me chuckle and I love the show Silicon Valley Sadly Apple seems to have removed the icons of popular brands 😢
Gets all your shortcuts & creates an archive with the title Backups-<date>.zip and saves them in either iCloud or Dropbox. Especially handy for quickly transferring to your computer so mess with python-shortcuts and Shortcuts JS with!

What it does: Offers a menu to play studio albums by the legend himself, Armin Van Buuren! Also includes a few Universal Religion compilations. All links are to Apple Music for now. This was an easy shortcut to get some practice with the toml format 😉. A much larger one coming soon offering options of every ASOT mix compilation! Stay tuned!
What it does: What the title says. I started with the apple shortcut to get the URL for a playing track and worked with it to create a QR code for easy sharing and to add to my journals in DayOne.
What it does: Summons Whitney from today view to remind people that crack is whack!
Feel free to use these shortcuts and customize to your own preferences! And if you have any cool ideas or recommendations don't hesitate to let me know!
