Gaps:
- I'm pretty dependent on the phone to add tasks quickly to my TODO manager. Breaking out the entire iPad for that is... not great.
- Playlists for morning news podcasts are not great. I'd love to listen to *today's* California Report, followed by *other* podcasts, rather than going back to the previous California Report (often from weeks or months ago). Haven't figured out a good approach on this.
@luis_in_brief I tried a similar experiment and these gaps drove me bananas. I want my iPad to greet me in the morning with the todo list already launched and focused on an appropriate perspective, and I don’t think the APIs exist for this
@glyph for that particular need, you might try the iOS focuses + widgets? You can basically say “from hour X to Y, I want my desktop to show only this one widget”?
@luis_in_brief hmm maybe I need to think more outside the box here by combining personal automations, home automations, shortcuts, and focus schedules
@glyph the yak, it has so much hair
(But seriously I do think there’s a lot to be said for putting this sort of thing on autopilot, especially if like me mornings are… rough)
