Action Button Shortcut (lemm.ee)

I actually use the action button on a daily basis.

It’s a fork from someone’s super action buttons shortcut that outputs a list view of commonly used commands and apps. But I added some nice to have tweaks. First , I test for internet connectivity, get the current location and the current focus mode and iPhone orientation and if the phone is locked or not. Now if I press the action button. If I am at a Bus/Train Station, my Ticket in the Wallet opens. If I am at home in my bed, the TV Remote opens. If I am at the University, the Uni Application opens. If I am at work, my To Do list opens. If the screen is locket or turned upside down, it toggles the silent mode. If none of the criteria are met, the shortcut list opens.

If you want to see it , I can prepare a version with removed personal information.
