To create an automation, the app "Shortcuts" is there.

there are 3 parts to an automation: 1) Shortcut (a button) or an Automation (automatic). 2) If an Automation : The trigger or time, and 3) the action to be taken.

If you need help, message me and I will type it out for me.

My view:

1. The trigger -- a few times a day to raise it up. So, choose some times of day in your wakeup morning hours. Mine is 6 and 7 a.m. So, 2 automations.
