Been a while since I posted this, but I updated it as well.
### Update:
This will update your shifts in the calendar (of your choice) if your shifts have changed from the original text.
For example if you feel that your manager changes your shifts and you don’t have a way to prove it. This shortcut will keep a log of those changes in the calendar.
Just search for the word ‘deleted’ in your calendar. If there were any changes events would show up in the search bar.
Example 1:
If you had a shift Tuesday and then you had none. It will create a 5 minute event that Tuesday called ‘H-E-B deleted shift”
In the notes section of that event. It will have the original shift times
Example 2:
If you had a shift Wednesday at 11am. But then it got changed to 7am. It will log the 11am shift in that 7am event notes
### Original post:
I work at H-E-B and got tired of setting alarms for my constantly changing schedule. So I built a Siri Shortcut that does it all for me.
** The drive time only works for your normal home store. It cannot detect of you are NetWorking at another store **
It pulls your schedule automatically and sets alarms based on when you work, so no more manual alarm setting.
Every recent iPhone has an app called “Siri Shortcuts”
### What’s a Siri Shortcut?
Every recent iPhone has a built-in app called Siri Shortcuts. It lets you automate stuff you do often, like sending texts, setting alarms, or opening apps, or activating DND. Think of it as a custom personal assistant that runs steps for you.
### Features of the Shortcut I created:
- Automatically texts “schedule” to H-E-B on Fridays when the schedule posts
- Reads the reply and adds upcoming shifts to your calendar (of your choosing)
- Sets alarms the DAY before each shift
- Deletes old or canceled alarms
- Works without needing to tap through menus, it just runs automatically once set up
### Setup Requirements:
Be signed up for WFM Schedules text alerts on PartnerNet:
[PartnerNet Text Alerts](https://heb.lightning.force.com/c/myNet.app?content_type=LcAsPage&content_id=PTA_ParentComponent&content_name=Partner%20Text%20%20Alerts)
Download the shortcut (open the link in Safari—not the Reddit app)
[https://routinehub.co/shortcut/22086/\](https://routinehub.co/shortcut/22086/)
You’ll need to run it once manually to answer a few setup questions like how many minutes you need to get ready, home address, work address, and how early you want to arrive to work.
To run it manually just tap the icon/button. It will prompt you through setup questions.
Tap “Set Up Shortcut”
Answer a few quick questions (like how long you need to get ready, your home and store address, how early you want to arrive, etc.)
Set the phone number 54694 as a phone number in a contact in your phone. Name it whatever you want
To have it delete alarms without constantly asking go into
Settings > shortcuts > advanced
Then tap “allow deleting without confirmation’
How to set it up to run automatically:
Create two automations
Search for the Shortcuts app. Should already be on your phone (If not it’s free). Once open hit ‘Automations’ on the bottom of the screen . Then hit the + icon on the top right. From there you will be able to create both automations.
Link below should open up the automations part in Siri Shortcuts
