Currently I just have mine set up for camera because I went on holiday and it was used more often. Now that I’m back working I don’t need the camera nearly as much and was wondering what’s a more useful setup for Action Button?
I have long used the double back tap to run a shortcut to set the media volume to 0 and switched it to the action button. I work in video production which involves long hours of sitting around and moments where absolute silence is crucial. This was I confirm a video isn’t going to loudly announce itself in the middle of a take. It’s also just generally useful in public.
TIL you can set double back tap and triple back tap to individual Shortcuts.
Have you had any issues with the shortcuts firing inadvertently?
Yeah occasionally, not super often, I wouldn’t set it to something you aren’t ok with triggering accidentally like turning on all the lights in the house or something. The back tap also doesn’t work all the time either so I’m glad for a action button as a more reliable replacement. But yeah it’s nice to have.
I have the camera during the day and when the focus switches to night mode it toggles the light to the bathroom, so I can easily turn on the lights when I have to go at night.
Toggle on/off the always-on display. That way if I’m at dinner with friends or whatever it doesn’t distract me, but when I’m at my desk I can see things anytime.
I’ve got it set up as a panic button so I can press it every time the EU debates interface compatibility.
