How to create shortcuts for call reminders on iPhone, iPad, and Mac
Hello!
I recently started using apples own reminders app. And it works seamless across my devices. One feature I miss is the ability to one press call number or person that I'm being reminded to call. When I search the web I came across one article that claims to have a solution.
This trick only works with Siri. If you type in the same text for a reminder, you won’t get the shortcut to make the call in one click on the reminding notification.
Tre steps:
How to create shortcuts for call reminders on iPhone, iPad, and Mac
- Activate Siri (Press and hold your Side button or Home button, or say “Hey Siri,” tap the Siri button on Touch Bar or the menu bar on Mac)
- Make a request like “Remind me to call Zac at 12:10 pm”
- You’ll see a colored phone icon with a shortcut to make your phone call
I have tried this, but it does not work. The colored phone icon does not appear, or I can't click and call right away.
So every time I have to call a client (that's not in my phonebook) I have to copy the phone number and change to phone app and paste the number and then call. Same thing with people that's registered in my phonebook.
I am grateful for all the help I can get.
