What notes app for iPhone works with Siri Shortcuts and the Action Button?

By ·

Drafted with AI from the Nemos app and its documentation. Details about other apps can change, so check their sites.

The Action Button on iPhone 15 Pro and later models can run an app action or any shortcut. Go to Settings, open Action Button, and assign the Nemos recording shortcut. A press then starts a recording from anywhere, and it shows on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island while it runs.

Nemos also exposes actions through App Intents, so they appear in the Shortcuts app. You can start them by voice with Siri, add them to a Home Screen shortcut, or use them in an automation.

Apple Notes supports Shortcuts as well, including creating a note. Any app with a shortcut can be tied to the Action Button, so this feature alone does not decide much.

The more useful question is what happens after capture. In Nemos the recording becomes searchable text beside everything else you saved. When something else fits better: for long automations that transform text and route it to many apps, Drafts offers more control than Nemos does.
