Best products from r/shortcuts

Hey, guys! I've got a great book about Morning Routine. It's short but has all the essential information on this topic. By the way, these days it's totally FREE, so you can read it right now without any expenses. Hope you'll enjoy it. If so, I ask you to leave an honest review about it

Here is the direct link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Y2VQZBJ

I found some of the url schemes

The one for Amazon is

> com.amazon.mobile.shopping://www.amazon.com/products/B01LYSNZA5/

Where “B01LYSNZA5” is the product id.

Google assistant’s url scheme is simply googleassistant:// but that’s not very useful since it doesn’t provide any parameters AFAIK.

Walmart’s URL scheme is

>wallmart://ip/47238655

Where “47238655” is the product code.

Good luck creating the shortcut

I bought these https://www.amazon.com/Ntag215-Compatible-Amiibo-Enabled-Devices/dp/B07PFC2FH5

They are very cheap, you can look for them on Amazon, eBay, Wish, etc.

I am unsure what chip types works, but it seems like NTAG 215 is the most popular

I have been using these very successfully - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TRL774A/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If I recall any NTAG216 will work pretty darn well

That would be great. The share button from amazon app generates this link.

Its from a different shortcut.

I got these and they also don’t reliably trigger. Super slow to detect. Hoping it’s just the tags and not the phone be omg so slow.

Here's another thing you can try. When you create the playlist link from Amazon Music (gaana won't work) paste it to a note. Remove all the stuff after the ? at the end and add a do=play so it looks something like this,

https://music.amazon.com/playlists/B0797C4SN9?do=play

This should open the playlist in the app and start playing.

These are what I bought and have had good luck: https://smile.amazon.com/Sticker-NTAG215-Amiibos-NFC-Enabled-Smartphones/dp/B07BDCYLG2

As for keychain ones, these apparently work: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077W8SN1Q

I'm guessing you can probably find the equivalent make/model on Amazon.ca…got them all from this article originally: https://www.matthewcassinelli.com/nfc-tags-siri-shortcuts/

I have NTAG 215 and they work great!

​

Here is the link for what I use!

If you prefer black, just got this and it's been working quite well.

Either way, search for "NTAG215" and you're good to go

I haven't noticed any issues with reading and writing NTAG215 tags. Could be that the tags you have are the issue. I bought these. I've used Shortcuts' automations to assign them to shortcuts, and I've also been using Smart NFC to write data to them. The app is great (I think I saw it mentioned first in this sub).

I bought these cards: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071Z9VGZ8?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

And these stickers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01135KABO?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

They both work fine now that I know what I’m doing. :-)

Could always just get lil stickers instead, I got a pack of 25 here and highly recommend to anyone looking

So, here is an interesting problem that I have run into.

​

I purchased these batteries from amazon and on the barcode, directly below, there is a 10 digit set of numbers; however, the actual UPC is below that with the proper 12 digits.

​

The app only scans where the barcode is and doesn't recognize the UPC since it's invalid and only contains 10 digits. Would there be a work around? when I scan the barcode with the Amazon app itself, it loads the product itself.

If you have an Aux In, maybe check out something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MSUWCZ0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_uk5PDbYT9AN5Y

Something like this?

I think it’s in beta right now (not sure if you need to be in the Xbox Preview Program or not)
Here’s a link.

Not sure a Nest will work with a window AC. I think you'd need something like this:

Apple takes full advantage of Wifi-Direct, so you may end up not even needing to put your phone on WiFi all that often. Or just simply turn off Auto-Join.

Personally I would use a little Wi-Fi re-broadcaster with a hidden SSID. Such as this.

iPhone 11 pro. I got these tags
