 ## Voice Note Shortcut
 
+I'm constantly thinking of, and then promptly forgetting, things I need to do, groceries to buy, ideas for these blog posts, etc. I've been on the hunt for some way to quickly capture these fleeting thoughts. I like the idea of a ring that can record voice memos, but [this one][3] requires a $10/mo subscription, and [this one][4] just ... turns into trash after 12-15 hours of recording.
 
+Instead, I played around in the iOS Shortcuts app and made a shortcut that captures text from speech, then looks for a note named for today's date (creating it if necessary), and appends the dictated text to it. Then I m/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Resources/MyLibraries/myDocuments.cannedSearch ade it so that double-tapping the back of the phone launches the shortcut (shout out Viget friend [Max Myers][5]).
