I'm kind of the same as you on this app. It seems as though it takes more
steps to get the task done than it would be to just go ahead and do it. I
can't think of anything that I do that I would need this app, yet, I'm glad
others have found it useful.

Subject: RE: Uses of Workflow App?
I'm sure for some users the Workflow app is great, but some of the examples
I have read sound to me like they are not a big time saver. For example,
using speed dial icons on the home screen is theoretically OK, but my first
home screen is filled with the apps I use most often and if I put Speed Dial
icons in a folder or on the second home screen, then I have to perform an
action first to get to them, e.g. double tap the folder to open it or swipe
to get to the second home screen. In this case I may as well double tap the
Phone icon and if my most used people are in the Favorites and this is where
I was when I closed the phone app, I basically have access to speed dials
(the entries in my favorites) after performing a single double tap on the
Phone icon which I can find super fast as it is in the bottom left corner of
the screen.
If I need access to a recording on my computer, I use Dropvox. I can set the
app to start recording when I open it so all I have to do is open the app,
then when I'm done I have to double tap to stop the recording, but then it
automatically uploads to whichever Dropbox folder I specified so as soon as
the upload is done and the download on any PC where I have Dropbox
installed, I have access to it in MP3 format.
These are just two examples, as I said, I am not trying to discredit the
app, but just as some others I personally have yet to really find a good use
for it.
Regards,
Sieghard

Subject: Re: Uses of Workflow App?
I created a new workflow. I then added the record audio action to the
workflow. I added the copy to clipboard action to the workflow. I then
added the send email action to the workflow.
I am playing around with the settings for each action. I have the record
audio action set to record on tap and to stop recording on tap.
I have the send email action set to not show the mail composer, added in a
generic subject, and set the contact to my work email.
The main issue I have still is that when I click the start workflow button,
I then need to click the start recording button. When I do the second
button voiceover speaks and is captured on the recording.
I may play with setting the start recording option to instant or with a
delay. I am also going to look at if I really need the copy to clipboard
action, or if it will work without it. I am hoping I can get rid of the
need to click done once I am finished with the recording. As it is now I
click the start recording, record my memo, then click the stop recording
button. Then I need to click the done button to get to the send email
button. Lots of extra clicking in there, but a work in progress.

I just created one that will do a voice recording on the Apple Watch,
then email that audio file to my work email address. I see this as
something to use during a meeting to quickly record my own notes
during the meeting and have those recordings sent to my email address
for me to review later.

A fellow idiot here, krister, so consider yourself in good company
because I am a genius when it comes to fragrance selection and eating
lots of food. And who doesn't like eating?
I am also interested in learning about how one would go about using
the app to speed-dial from the home screen. is it complicated to set
up?

Hi,
I’ve never ever got the hang of this app. This however isn’t
surpriceing at all since i’m an idiot when it comes to programming
in any shape or form, so i’ve more or less given up on it as a thing
i personally need.

Congratulations to Workflow for winning the AppleVis Golden Apple
award for the Best iOS App of 2015. I believe I've got a pretty
good conceptual understanding of this app which seems synonymous
with macros in Excel or keystroke macros in the earlier days of the
personal computer. What I'm having more difficulty with is coming
up with how to practically use this app on my iPhone so I thought
I'd ask what others who are using it on this list are using it for.
Thanks for any comments you're willing to share.
