How to set up automations to Tap Out automatically

    Using Apple Shortcuts to set up automated Tap Outs

    You can set up shortcuts to automatically Tap Out under certain conditions. For example, you can Tap Out automatically when you:

    • Arrive at or leave a certain location (like work)
    • Enter a specific focus mode (like bedtime)
    • Plug in your charger

    Important: be careful setting up these shortcuts, as you will always need your Tap Out to use your apps again

    How to set up shortcuts

    1. Open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone
    2. Go to the Automation tab and press + in the upper right corner
    3. Select your trigger (for example: when I arrive at home, Anytime, Run immediately)
    4. Press Next, press New Blank Automation, and search for and select 'Tap Out automatically'.
    5. Press Done. Your automation is now saved and active
