Shortcuts has Tasker vibes. You can do a lot with it, especially automation.
Lmk if you’re a Google Home user. You can setup Shortcuts so that Siri passes on commands to Google Assistant.
You can even customize the Action button to run a Shortcut. I’ve got mine to check if it’s connected to my home WiFi, then toggle bedroom lights; if connected to work WiFi, then… etc.
Take advantage of Focus modes (Work, Sleep, etc.) because Shortcuts can use that as a condition.
Apple TV: Ted Lasso is worth watching.
3rd party apps worth mentioning:
QuickScan. Completely free, with optional donations. Create multipage OCR’d PDFs with your camera.
Brave Vivaldi browser mainly for ad-free YouTube.
Paperback if you read manga, manhwa, etc.
Lemmy apps: Voyager is the most frequently updated and smoothest, but it lacks some QoL features that I enjoy in other apps, such as Thunder. Give all of them a try.
Sleep alarm with gradually increasing volume: you need to use the 1st party Health app to set up your nightly alarm.
Additional settings:
Back Tap. You can customize double tap and triple tap with a limited set of actions.
Reachability. Top of the screen temporarily shifts down.
Haptic Touch. Set to Fast so that long presses don’t take so long to activate.
I switched earlier this year.
