One button to send any thought to my AI assistant

The iPhone Action Button is the most under-used hardware on the phone. I rebound it to do exactly one thing: press → speak → release → my AI captures and routes whatever I just said.

The flow:

  • An iOS Shortcut records audio and posts it to my n8n workflow
  • Apple’s on-device dictation handles transcription — works even offline
  • An LLM classifies what I said (smart-home / work / idea)
  • Smart-home stuff becomes a task in Nova (my task system)
  • Work stuff is sent to my work inbox
  • Random ideas drop into my notebook
  • Telegram pings me with the result in about 2 seconds

What this kills: the friction between having a thought and actually capturing it properly. No app to open, no typing, no category-picking. Great for joggers, drivers, parents — anyone whose hands are busy and brain is on.
