I have it set to the mute button. I use it about as much as I used the mute switch.

I have set up as a shortcut where it opens a menu and displays a few options (toggle silent, toggle rotation, toggle flashlight, ask ChatGPT, turn on room lights)

It essentially acts like a second control centre but fully customizable to anything you like

As a longtime daily user of the former silent mode switch, I’ve kept the action button set to that function and love not having to dig my fingernail down into the phone chassis to toggle it.

Not once except when I got it. I need to find a use.

Pro max for a month. Nope

I have mine triggered to my medical card so when I get to the dispensary im not fumbling on my phone looking through files or photos

I feel like I’m one of the few that can reach the button comfortably since i hold my phone with my left hand (even though I am right handed). I currently have it set to open the camera app which allows me to take photos super fast.

All the time

I have a bunch of options set up in a shortcut:

Toggle do not disturb

Todays calendar

New safari tab

Photo

Portrait

Video

Text my wife I’m on my way home

I use it all the time for the flashlight.

Never. Turned it off

Switched it to camera and use it all the time. Basically a dedicated shutter button. Plus I actually now use the quick video function they introduced a while ago.

I have it set to toggle rotation lock so that I’m not fumbling around when trying to show some pics

I use it as a shortcut for lots of shortcuts. Flashlight, mute, open an app for some controls on my car. My favorite so far is a shortcut to open maps with the directions home from my location which save a lot of fumbling around

I wish I could properly macro it to get a much better use out of it, saw some videos people programing it, but I don’t see that option anywhere, so I just use it for the default
