That Orientation action button shortcut is a gem..thank you so much

[@slayersun3649]

How did you get it to work?

yep. finally impressed

Your mute presentation was the best. I had no idea that could be done. I have been using the action button as my mute but now I'm going to change that to something else and recall mute is now within the control center 🥇

[@iam-224]

Great video! It definitely improved my experience with the 15 pro coming from 11! Camera features are on point and so are the shortcuts for the action button. Really great. 👍

[@xhefriguitars7946]

Clear and concise presentation. Much appreciated. My work always gets me a new iPhone every year and this time I got the blue colored versus always normally getting black. I really like the looks of it. I do a lot of pro video and these iPhones are just as good as pro cameras we had 10-12 years ago.

[@richardsigney6866]

Enjoyed your vid and thanks for the tips + the orientation action shortcut (everything worked as you described, but for the music playing one…still pretty awesome for a “simple” user like me). And I got the 15 Pro in black because it’s been my fave one since the start.

[@LemontTheFanMan]

Hey Mike I bought the white titanium version in the 1Tb model and it finally comes today my favorite feature is the action button and usb c 3.1 can’t enjoy this phone for the next 5 to 7 years I got this phone for my 50th birthday

[@tabishmujahid8165]

great video. regarding the orientation action button. how can we change the condition as I am not using the Apple Music feature?

[@zjhongolez]

My goodness, that shortcut set up is awesome! Thank you for sharing!

[@oiledor]

Your tutorial is very helpful. I just bought my iphone 15 pro (my previous iphone was ip6).. i might say that there’s a lot of new features now in iphone that blew my mind. Thanks for this infos. 👌

[@fabtate8621]

Fantastic video thank you so much for such a great and informative video also loved your voice❤ I picked white pro not started to use it yet but your video is the best to start my phone with. 🙏🏻👍🏻

[@Tontoninho]

Thanks a lot for actions app and shortcut, I improved it with menu 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@mrnicenasty527ify]

Nice video man, definitely learned some new tips on the iPhone 15 pro, I bought it in the color blue

[@sagittude123]

Absolute gem of a video and thanks a ton for sharing the shortcut for free! Many thanks

[@Fantasy_3peat]

This video is amazing!! I love how you set up the action button but how do I change the music to go to Spotify instead?

[@Guide-Tu]

Very useful tips you have presented. Thanks so much, Michael. I’ve got the very same color!

[@janromanec]

Hello, great video. I would like to ask if you know about any shortcut that can run camera and set format (for example HEIF max). I cant find it in Shortcuts app. I would like to use it for action button so if i push action button, i can shoot in high quality right away. Thank you for help.

[@thetuckerlife]

Battery wise you said to keep it at 100% instead of optimizing it to 80%. I have always had max's but I have RA and I wanted to upgrade from the 14 pro max but downsize to the 15 pro. Would that be good overall when picking between the 15 pro and 15 pro max?

[@user-iv9hi2vm2s]

Thanks for giving me the idea to program the Action Button on my new 15 Pro Max. I did it manually but using your functions. It all works except for playing music in the Face Up Orientation. Any suggestions?

[@tshanegilman6278]

Good knowledge. Thanks for the info!

[@sanjeevareddygellela4783]

Very informative video. Liked very much about the shortcut for action button. Thanks for share the shortcut file

[@bahrcourt]

That’s so great! You’ve created a basis from which we can grow and develop!! Thanks so much

[@eck1997rock]

wow thanks for showing us the #2, the action button was so well hidden, I never heard about it before

[@TwoMuchMonocle]

I've been looking into different tips about the Iphone 15, since this is my first time using one in 10 years. The orientation action button is honestly so cool, thank you for that!!

[@emfarfan]

Hey this was very informative, thank you! Curious where you learned about these features, I have been on an 11 for five years and just got the blue 15 pro. That’s my favorite color!

[@bigbearcustom5811]

Finally useful shortcuts i love it, thanks it’s gone a be useful.

[@FaisalBh]

how can I customize the home screen want to add widgets like you got any advice?

[@ADEXL]

Does the device orientation shortcut work when the phone display is in orientation lock?

[@ronzy417]

I enjoyed watching your vid, thank you. I did however attempt to attach the same brand one terabyte external and could not find it in my files. I’m not sure why I can’t get it to show up.

[@anrichjoubert315]

Thanks for the shortcut man, changed the torch to toggle silent,as I don’t often use the torch as much, but the rest of the features I am keeping

[@dinazak2i]

Thank you so much! I got the shortcut and it's so helpful! Not using the Apple Music feature though, so I’ll try to change it. Hopefully, it’s not hard 😊

[@njrose06]

Thank you for your cleat explanation about those hidden features. I, luckily, picked up my 15 pro max I phone this year with my favorite natural titanium color.🤩

[@GameON-RTX]

i like your video dude,, BTW how i can change the command ? i wanna change music app to other command dude..

[@pennygrimmer1439]

Is there a setting we have for privacy that is inhibiting our ability to make the link work? It showed up in our options for shortcuts but said it was unable to load

[@Eclipses915]

Thanks for the video I’ve been looking into the iPhone 15 pro I’m getting one soon I watch a lot of shows on Apple TV and MAX but there’s not many videos talking about things like that

[@saadkamran7]

I bought Black Iphone 15 pro but the titanium color looks amazing, I feel like I should've go for that one but black is cool aswell 💯

[@sluong13]

Love the insight on this video! I tried to use the link for the orientation shortcut in the description but when I added the shortcut, it says 'unknown action'' in the set up of the shortcut. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Any help is appreciated as I really want to use this action button set up!

[@TreyisPlayin]

Same problem... say's I need to update thought I had ironically updated to 17.2.1 same day

[@kurtgrech77]

Fantastic tips, just what I needed for my newly bought iPhone 15 Pro! Would be great to show how the scripting side of the shortcut is done, especially because I would like to switch from the Music app to Spotify. Thanks for the great video!

[@GameON-RTX]

yepp.. me to , i wanna change the music to other command like silent mode or anything.. but i dont know how to do that..

[@nmrasokan]

Yes. Same here as well

[@alemess63]

It seems like you are calling a previously defined command which is not included in the script, so we get the “action not found” error.

[@flreignsjaveszz]

i got the blue titanium. thanks for the shortcut hacks, will surely apply it.

How can I change the apple music to on the shortcut to Spotify?

The shortcut link takes me to an app not a shortcut. Help me out please?

[@mycki1020]

Michael, I liked the content of the video. All the information was great. I have a comment on how the video was made. I had a problem with the constant movement of your hand holding the iPhone. It made me a little nauseous. Is there a way you could put it on a stand and still demonstrate the information? Otherwise ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@michakwiatkowski3646]

can you paste the link to your SSD drive, please?

Very good

[@leanlearndesign]

This is great! Thanks for sharing the shortcuts! Is there any way to add a condition of turn no not disturb off once is on?

[@leanlearndesign]

Found it! In case you wonder: you need to use condition togle: do not disturb instead of turn on: do not disturb

Superb shortcut I am using now

Thanks for the tips, I couldn’t get the music feature to play my library. Gives me a weird error. But I can edit the shortcut and have it play one song of my choice. Has anyone resolved this?

Got the titanium Blue 15 pro max and love it, would not have got another colour.

I just got the 15 pro max yesterday and finally having a chance to explore. I came from a 13 pro max so it’s a huge change. I wanted the natural but they didn’t have it. I got the blue one. Wish I’d got the titanium black now but it’s ok. Great video 😢

For me the Shortcut won’t work, it says always „unknown action“ and could find it in this version.. can u help me?

This is my 1st iPhone-Pro model which is the largest one, that I decided to choose Black, but the Natural Titanium is a really nice color too!

Thanks for the video! I got the natural titanium also. I appreciate the shortcut. It works great… except for the Apple Music action. Any advice on how to fix that?

remove the line and add it again. (select action at the end "open app" and then drag and drop it under the if condition. then select the apple music app again

Did you download the app that it uses to know the orientation? He should’ve mentioned it in the video…

@@Arne0djwhich app is that?

[@robertm5957]

It’s called Actions. Looks like he put a link for that as well

[@Jivy225]

the multiple action button shortcuts are a godsend. I changed them up a little bit to open spotify and act as a play/pause button when its open.

how though ?

How can you find a 5x camera while this is an iphone 15 pro not 15 pro max?

Nice

[@GamingAmbienceLive]

I am on iPhone 15 pro max and immediately turned on 80% limit, i get home after work with 40% and 35% if i use it heavily, so this is perfect. 10:10 everyone keeps doing phone orientation and while that is great this is just chipping at the capabilities, because you can set the conditions to be coordinates, so when you are home it can work as silent switch, when you are at work it can work as a record button, when you are on the ground level of work it can become a starbucks order application etc, insane amount of capabilities, you literally create a script of what you want it to do, i havent been brave enough to implement it yet but I am drafting some ideas

Thanks. Note the AW charger charges AirPods pro too.

Hi and thank you so much for the video. I just got the iPhone 15 Pro Max. I am NO techie for sure. I’ve been watching so many videos and trying to learn a lot but it’s difficult. And why does everyone talk so fast and change screens so fast? I’m constantly stopping and starting again. The thing that is really hard to comprehend is the Action button. I guess I’ll get it…..hopefully. Anyhow your video helped a lot so Thank You.

Cool

I think one of the features nobody talked about is the double/triple tap on the back. Not sure if this was new last year but it’s been awesome

13 pro max does that as well.

Ah it’s an old feature then!

[@JamesMiller_ShadowWalker]

Getting an error with iOS 17.3 The shortcut could not be run because an action could not be found. -- Shows the first action window, Unknown Action. This action could not be found in this version of Shortcuts. -- Guess Apple removed something.

[@kurtgrech77]

Happened to me too, it turned out the phone needed an update (17.4). I re-installed the shortcut and re-ran it after the update and the Unknown Action error was replaced successfully by the Device Orientation command, however for some reason when I tap the Orientation Action Shortcut somehow it stops half way from running completely. If I hit the play button when in edit mode i can see it is stopping on the Music condition, which would make sense as I do not yet have any music in there. Would be great if this command line triggers playing Spotify instead. Gonna keep looking maybe I can find how this is done.

[@HeftyPrince]

when I hold 3x there is much more option up to 5x
