Connect to (YOUR SPEAKER NAME), category: Utilities

Ever get sick of manually connecting to the speaker that’s already ON? Imagine you could walk into a room and connect with your voice instead of manually pairing. Or maybe you just want to turn on the speaker then have this do the work for you. WHAT IT DOES: •Attempts to connect to the PRESET speaker •Once successful, opens Spotify (requires unlocked phone) -which usually isn’t a big deal when you have Face ID. •Plays media on “iPhone” (now the speaker) Simple setup: 1. Pair to your Bluetooth device manually 1 more time. 2. Edit this shortcut. 3. Click on the first time it says “iPhone”. 4. Click the next output that you are connected to: et. Your speaker 5. Rename the shortcut to what you want to tell Siri in order to run it. Now, just say “Siri” and the new shortcut name and it will forever connect to the available speaker! Some devices will not play Spotify once opened, since it’s a third-party app. So in some cases you do have to click one button. CONTACT ME: @HeyPeople5 On discord
