How do I use the Remember This Apple Shortcut to save everyday memories and notes?

Edited with MoodyMagic - My Week Set

Hello lovely,

This might be my favourite Apple shortcut. And I don’t say that lightly.

It’s called Remember This. A free automation tucked inside the Shortcuts app that lets you quickly record anything you don’t want to forget throughout your day.

Moments. Gratitude. To-dos. A tiny detail for your next class or client. That one thought you swore you’d remember (but didn’t).

It’s simple. It’s built-in. And once you’ve set it up, you can use it with Siri or just tap and type. No additional apps.
And did I mention it’s free on your Apple devices?

Here’s what I love about it:

☐ You can speak a memory and have it saved in a note automatically.

☐ Everything lands in a folder you set up—mine is just called ‘Remember.’

☐ It updates a running list throughout the day (no new notes for every entry).

☐ You can use it on iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

☐ You can even include photos (a bit like a Day One journal entry).

I’ve used it to remember poppies blooming, a quick edit tip for Resolve, a little line of gratitude mid-walk. The sweetest thing Miss M said.

All those tiny things that would normally fady away? Captured. Saved. Easy to find.

Want to see it in action? I made a quick tutorial walking through how I use it and how to set it up in just a few minutes.

Curious about widgets or home screen shortcuts?

Watch video two in my previous Shortcuts tutorial. I show you how to set it up as a desktop widget or add it to your phone with a tap.

Wanna Set up a widget for your desktop, like me or add it to your phone homescreen?

Share it with a Friend

If this helped, feel free to send it to a friend.

Please share the link to this post…not the direct shortcut. That way they can see how to use it, edit it, and make it their own.

Til next time…
