Historical prices on Amazon
Who more and who less already almost all of us buy often on Amazon, and if you don't, maybe you should consider it. However, we must not blindly fool ourselves with their prices, they are not always the best and we are not dealing with a real "bargain". For that there are Amazon price histories and a well-known website in this regard is CamelCamelCamel, so it's time for your shortcut.

This way when you go to a product on Amazon and click on the «Share» button, the CamelCamelCamel button will appear and you will be able to consult the price history in the fastest and most incredible way that you could have imagined. It is the best way to save money.
Rest with a "Do Not Disturb" timer
It is good that every so often we take time for ourselves, to think and reorganize our ideas, especially if we are teleworking or performing any task under certain stressful conditions.

For this we also have a shortcut, add the one we left above and in the name of the shortcut change the English text to "I'm going to take a break." So every time we say "Hey Siri, I'm going to take a break", It will ask you how long and activate a timer with Do Not Disturb mode activated.

Once you have added this shortcut, change the name to "Ultra Saving Mode", in this way automatically in the battery percentage that we have preselected or when we invoke the Shortcut with Siri, Bluetooth, mobile data and anything else that uses excessive power will be disabled.
Convert any file to PDF
PDF is a standardized document system, although unfortunately many users are not sufficiently familiar with it. This shortcut comes to solve this problem in the best way.
- Convert any file to PDF> LINK
If you add this shortcut, in the «Share» button you will always have the possibility of creating a PDF available with any document that you have open at that moment, even with the screenshots, something especially useful to share them or interact with official entities, undoubtedly one of the best shortcuts.
