Double your Action Button’s usefulness with this ingenious iPhone 15 Pro tweak

The first Apple Watch Ultra introduced us to the Action Button, and now this surprisingly powerful button has made its way to the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. By default, your Action Button can only be set to do one thing, such as open your camera app, silence your iPhone, or turn on your torch. However, one of the options lets you run a shortcut from the Shortcuts app. This allows you to do a whole host of things, including creating your own shortcut that can detect when you’re at home or when you’re out and change what the Action button does. There’s also plenty more you can do with the Shortcuts app to get the most out of the Action Button as we said, but we love this trick so much we thought we’d give it its own feature. Here’s how it works.
