Now we need to set up the "remote control" to your most used apps:

  1. Open the Shortcuts app again

  2. Create a new shortcut

  3. Search for "Open App"

  4. Once it appears in the search results, click on it

  5. You should see something like "Open" "App"

  6. Click on "App" and select the app you want to open

  7. You can then rename the shortcut and, if you want, change the icon and color

  8. Click "Done" in the top right corner

  9. Repeat for up to a maximum of 7 apps

Creating an "End Focus" Shortcut:

  1. Create a new shortcut in the Shortcuts app

  2. Search for "Get Current Focus" and select it

  3. Then search for "Set Focus" and set it to turn off

  4. Optionally, add an "if" condition to prevent error pop-ups when no focus mode is active. This will show a less intrusive notification instead.

  5. Rename the shortcut to "End Focus" and add an icon and color if you want

  6. Click "Done" in the top right corner

Organizing Shortcuts into a Folder:

  1. Still in the Shortcuts app, click "Select" in the top right corner
  2. Select all 7 app shortcuts + the End Focus shortcut
