Hi all,


Doing this on the iPhone and Apple Watch was ok.
> Used the Shortcuts app on the iPhone - trial and error - intuitive app though - thanks apple :)

Creating a 'WIFI/ Bluetooth' Shortcut Though, on the M1 MBA, running Big Sur - Help Please


What I'm ideally after:
1. 2 Large shortcut buttons on Big Sur desktop
2. ON Button = Bluetooth on. Wifi on. iPhone hotspot selected.
3. OFF Button = Bluetooth off. Wifi off. Do Not disturb on. OneDrive paused for 24hrs. Etc.




I've looked on the internet and see apple scripts etc. to be used.

Q1) Is there are another what to do this?! (See links below etc.)

Q2) If not, can you advise the best approach, and I'll work on piecing together the code etc.


Hope you can Advise! :)
Regards
Martin
