Sorry, I don't find the dictation section and I don't find a toggle labeled Auto-Punctuation. Here's a screenshot of what I do see. Please clarify where I find this toggle.
BTW, I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max.

I love what you’re doing there – side to side wiggle.

I implemented the “If” suggestions and the shortcut works great. Of course, the shortcut is specific to my situation. Thanks.
ARAH_Jr
Thanks for the feedback.
ARAH_Jr
Thanks for the suggestion.

The set playback destination doesn’t seem to accept variables—at least I’m not able to. iPhone 12 with latest iOS.

Welcome.

u/pgchavez, you might like this shortcut also.

You’re welcome.
No, I do not do custom shortcuts.

The following screenshot of the shortcut should help. The key is tapping on the right- facing arrow of the Ask for action. You will then see the default value of 75.
BTW, if you ask Siri to execute the shortcut, the default value is ignored.

Most Welcome. Let me know of any other issues.

Those actions are part of Actions (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/actions/id1586435171) and they are testing the Silence button, which was changed on the iPhone 16 and maybe 15—don’t remember. So, I don’t know what happens if your phone has an Action button versus the Silent slide switch. Anyway, all the test does is bypass the speaking of how long DND is set for. If you always want to be told, just delete the first action and delete the If but keep the Speak action.
Hope this helps.

The shortcut is pre-iOS 18 (I have 17.7) and it works on my iPhone 12. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/92b2695504194e568377cfea89acbd1d

Thanks for the extra effort. What else may I do to indicate my pleasure other than clicking/tapping up vote? I see karms. How do they work?

Sorry I wasn’t clear. The Choose from menu Shortcuts action allows defining optional answers for defined menu choices. Even though others have provided definition, I will provide an example. I am including two screenshots. The first one displays the Choose from menu action with an arrow pointing to a circled i. Tapping the circle i reveals the synonym definition page. The second image is an example of the synonym definition page. BTW, this feature used to work. I just don’t remember if it was with iOS 13, 14, or something earlier.

Go to the iOS App Store and search for Actions or follow the link in the original post to this thread and scroll down to Download.

The shortcut I have, which is called Set DND Timer, allows me to set do not disturb on for a queried number of minutes. It’s very useful, for example, when I am doing something and an alarm or notification occurs and I want to suspend the buzzing until a little while later.
