    change setting value from settings app on shortcuts?

    I want to create a shortcut that disables all notifications when I open an app (including banners (so dnd is not what I want)), and when I close that app the shortcut enables back all notifications. To do that I need to change the value of "show previews" in the settings. How can I do it?

    Other Which phone did you buy in the last year and why?

    Hi all, would love to know everyone's choice and why. Do people like the new redesign? What do you think of it compared to other phones you've owned? I, myself, got a Mini as I've got tiny hands and had been waiting for a small phone ever since the iPhone 5! 😄 (my favourite iPhone I've owned)...

    iPhone 12 Pro Max Apple care, any good reasons to not get it?

    I am considering getting apple care for my 12 pro max, however I never had apple care for any of my previous iPhones and they did just fine as I tend to care a lot. However, it is also true that none of my previous iPhones were as expensive as this one. Are there any good counter arguments as to...

    iPhone 12 Pro Max can I have possibly loosened the mute switch on my iPhone 12?

    I had to put my iPhone on and off into silent mode using the switch about 20 times fast and continuously for a reason, the switch works as it should but can this have weakened something inside? Something that would make it break quicker?

    iPhone 12 Pro Max this might make no sense, but can magnets on iPhone 12 get weak over time?

    I am not a physicist but just curious, can magnets actually get weak over time? In this attached image it states: "Several factors can weaken the magnetism in a magnet. If a magnet is stored close to heat, strong electrical currents, other magnets, or radiation, it can lose its strength...

    Other Iphone 13! In the new iOS update the Face ID unlocks with the mask so what reason do we have to believe that the new iPhone will have the Touch ID?

    It would have made sense if they re-introduced Touch ID using COVID as an excuse, however now they have managed to make Face ID work with the mask.. Secondly, as someone else said, apple implements one feature at a time so I find it hard to believe that they will include 120hz (the most likely...

    iPhone 5 or earlier Is the iPhone 4s still worth it?

    I think the iPhone 4s is still working. After six/seven years of using iPhones, from 6 to 12, I have always used the iPhone 4s. It's always stable. It always seems to work. I have it dual-booted between iOS 8 and 5, and it has never stopped working. I think it might last for another few years...
