Quote from Desmo on 21.09.2023, 09:55My first gets my distance from home and an approximate travel time and then texts my wife to let her know when I'll be back.
The second is used to get my current location and then add the street name and town to Notes called Great Roads. I use this so if I'm on a particularly good road it gets added to the list for me to look up and add to rides later on.

I like the sound of that! I'm an idiot... would you care to share how you did this?

Quote from Desmo on 22.09.2023, 05:49I think this should work and I've actually improves this from my original. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/9a11d3902ded486dbb552bb177ce219b
The link should allow you to download it to your phone. All you need to do is create a new Note in the Notes app called Great Roads.
When you run the shortcut it will now ask if it is a Good Road or Bad Road, also with an option to Exit.When you click either option it will get your location and extract the street name and town/city and then add it to the notes along with a marker for Good Road or Bad Road.
You can then just look at the notes whenever you fancy.

Doesn't seem to work for me. I installed the shortcut and configured Scenic shortcut 1 for it. When I tap the shortcut 1 button in Scenic, the Shortcuts app comes forward (hiding Scenic) and the "Rate this road!" window opens. When I tap "Good," a notification (I think?) for the Notes app opens, showing the "Gread Roads" note but with no additional text. That's where my screen stays, the Shortcuts app forward, covered up on top by the Notes notification. I have to switch back to Scenic if I want to see it and continue to use it.
When I open the "Great Roads" note, I indeed find no additional text...

Quote from Stresspuppy on 23.09.2023, 14:05@mattsz - I opened the shortcut, clicked on "Great Roads" and it brought up a list of Notes files. I clicked on my "Great Roads" in both the Good and Bad flows the clicked "Done". I think you have to do that to make sure the link works to your specific note. Once I did that, it worked for me.
@desmo - Thanks for a great shortcut! I have been wanting to do this and wasn't sure how.
