Foray into iOS shortcuts

For a while, I have wanted to start using Shortcuts on iOS. The biggest road block for me had been that most of the ideas I had required the shortcuts to run unattended and be able to text me information. When iOS 14 came out, that last road block was removed. I was now able to text myself information!

I work with people around the world and I often have early morning meetings. I always have to remember to check my calendar before I go to be so I remember if I have an early morning meeting. I through it would be great to have my calendar text me a copy of my meetings but this is not something that Outlook will do. Shortcuts to the Rescue. My first shortcut is one that text me a list of the next day’s meetings. It works great for me. You can grab a copy if you want to try it out.
