Tutorial Description

As part of his quest to get better with the Shortcuts application, as well as collect his thoughts more efficiently while on the move, Lee has implemented a workflow that uses Drafts, his text entry application of choice, to add information to a selection of lists in Apple Notes. This is made possible by the Shortcuts application which connects these two apps.

In this video, you learn how Lee created the shortcut, with Drafts playing a key role. He also shares a second shortcut that allows you to view any list in Apple Notes. That can be quite useful when you are on mobile and wish to quickly get to your information without searching through your notes.
