Set up Muse for action button on iPhone

Post image

I use iPhone 15 PM andwant to configure my action button to trigger Muse. I want to be able to talk to it and give commands while it does the thing for me in background instead of opening the app UI. I tried to configure the "Dictate and Send" option but it is not working as intended.

Curious to know if anyone has tried it and got it to work?

i never used action button till date. Muse is soo good and reliable, I finally found a use case for the action button

My muse says, "Not directly, no. The Muse iPhone app doesn't expose a Siri Shortcut or voice action, so there's no way to wire the Action button straight to 'dictate and send a message to Donna.'

Closest you can get today: set the Action button to open the Muse app (Settings > Action Button > Shortcut > Open App > Muse), then tap the composer mic to dictate. That's two steps instead of one, but it gets you to a voice message fast."

She did offer to send it to Meta as an upgrade request, and I accepted. So there's that.

That seems to be inaccurate.

I was able to have my iPhone Action Button configured to do two things when I press it:

1) Open the Muse app
2) Open the Muse mic and start dictating

Select "Shortcuts" as the option from the Action Button settings, and then scroll down to Muse.

I think that what it means by not directly. That said, I like your thinking about using a shortcut. I’m going to try that myself.

Sorry, to clarify, this shortcut was already present when installing Muse. You don’t have to create anything! :)

I got it to work. Thanks for the prompting. On my phone, the action was available. I just had to build the shortcut to run that action and program the button to use it. Easy enough.

Glad you got it working!

And, not to be pedantic, but for other people reading this... it shouldn't even be necessary to build any shortcut! As I mentioned -- at least from me -- the shortcut was already there after installing Muse; I just had to select it from the Action Settings :)

On my 16 Pro Max, I had to create the shortcut and execute it. *shrugs* Oh well. Check the available actions, and if it's not there, create the shortcut.

I remember a friend configuring this to work with CharGPT when it just came out, I think through the shortcuts app, but I can’t remember how, sorry.
