Highlights
The video introduces the Shortcuts application on iPhone, an integral part of iOS that significantly enhances mobile functionality. It distinguishes between 'shortcuts' (combinations of actions to simplify processes) and 'automations' (processes triggered by an initial value or event). The speaker recommends exploring Apple's predetermined shortcuts and automations.
This shortcut integrates ChatGPT with Siri, making Siri a much more advanced assistant. To set it up, download the ChatGPT app, grant it all necessary permissions in settings (especially for Siri), then go to the Shortcuts app. Create a new shortcut, add the 'Ask ChatGPT' action, and set an initial prompt in Spanish (e.g., 'Puedes ayudarme?'). Enable 'Continuous Chat' for an ongoing conversation. The shortcut can be named anything, like 'Jarvis', and activated by invoking Siri with the chosen name.
This shortcut allows direct voice conversations with ChatGPT without Siri acting as an intermediary. In the Shortcuts app, create a new shortcut, add the 'Start Voice Conversation' action for ChatGPT. The shortcut can be named as desired (e.g., 'Tony Stark'), but avoid names that might conflict with contacts. Activate it by invoking Siri with the shortcut's name. The speaker notes a preference for Siri’s Spanish over ChatGPT’s native speech.
This shortcut, available via a download link, offers an advanced battery saving mode. Once installed, it can be activated via a widget or by invoking Siri with its name (e.g., 'superahorro de batería'). It intelligently adjusts phone settings based on battery level, such as reducing brightness, activating airplane mode, or switching off data to maximize battery life.
This shortcut for text-to-speech comes in two modes. 'Siri Speaker' allows Siri to read out any text you input and simultaneously creates an audio file for download. The second mode directly provides an audio file of the text in Siri’s voice without playing it aloud. This is useful for accessibility, content creation without personal voice, or avoiding costly text-to-speech applications.
This shortcut leverages Bing's Copilot (powered by OpenAI technology and connected to the internet) to summarize news from any country. Users need to download the Bing app and grant it Siri permissions. Create a new shortcut, add the 'New Bing' action, and provide a specific prompt like 'Hazme un resumen de las mejores noticias sobre España'. Activating it (e.g., 'noticias') will provide a summary with sources.
Building on the previous Bing shortcut, this allows users to get a summary of news from their preferred website. The process is similar: create a new shortcut with the 'New Bing' action and provide a prompt specifying the website, such as 'Hazme un resumen de las noticias de la página web de shatak de hoy'. This is useful for quick updates on specific topics.
This shortcut grants access to Bing’s extensive wallpaper repository. Activate the shortcut, and it will direct you to Bing's collection of high-quality images. Users can browse, select, download, and set any image as their wallpaper with a few taps.
This practical shortcut converts videos or Live Photos into GIFs. After activating it, simply select the desired video or Live Photo, and the shortcut will convert it into a GIF, making it easy to share with friends.
This shortcut provides instant text translation without needing a dedicated app. Select and copy any text, activate the shortcut by asking Siri to 'Traducir texto', specify the target language (e.g., 'a español'), and it will automatically translate the text.
The final shortcut converts spoken words into text rapidly. Once activated, dictate your message (e.g., 'los 10 mejores atajos que puedes tener en tu iPhone'), and it will transcribe it into a text document. The text can then be copied, shared, or saved, offering a free alternative to many voice-to-text applications.
