(I’m a fan of Federico’s approach of passing a JSON dictionary to Shortcuts it allows a single shortcut to flexibly respond to different kinds of input rather than requiring a whole bunch of different shortcuts to perform slightly different tasks.) -Linked by Jason Snell Though scripting Audio Hijack does require some rudimentary JavaScript, its ability to pass data to Shortcuts lowers the bar for ease of use considerably. If I named my Audio Hijack sessions with the same name I use for each podcast project in Timery, does that mean I could invoke one shortcut that knew exactly what podcast I started recording?

I don’t want to manually tell Shortcuts which podcast I’m recording, but Audio Hijack can help here as well: the app can pass the name of the session that just started to Shortcuts. That got me thinking: when I start recording a show, I could run a script that fires off a shortcut that contains a Timery action to start time tracking.

How to make that process easier? Developer Simon B. Even an older iPhone’s camera is better than any webcam you’ve got, but mounting it can be fussy, and you have to unlock the phone and launch the Camo app every time you use it-which isn’t very convenient when the phone’s display is facing away from you and the whole thing is horizontal. I use Reincubate’s Camo to turn my iPhone into a high-quality webcam for my Mac.
