Summary: Apple Shortcuts can turn any URL into an app on your iPhone Home screens, with a pretty icon to boot! I use it to go straight to my Notion pages for blog tasks, post ideas, or the social media post tracking board 💅


Since discovering the Apple Shortcuts app, I’ve started making the most of the Notion integration with shortcuts to:

  • Our social post tracking page (for TikToks and YouTube videos)
  • Our blog post tracking page (what’s been published on this site)
  • Add a new blog post idea
  • Go to the Producing Paradise task board (for all the non-content tasks)

I keep all the Producing Paradise apps together in one of my iPhone Home screens, so I can see them all at once when I’m in this zone 🧝‍♀️
