Before you start, make sure you have one sec installed.

You can download it for free from the AppStore.

Step 1

On your iPhone, open the Shortcuts app and go to the Automation tab.

Step 2

Create a personal automation (you might need to tap on + if you already have other automations set up).

Step 3

Scroll down and select App.

Step 4

Choose the app you’d like to configure with “one sec” (e.g. Instagram).

Only select one app here. A separate automation is required for each app.

At the bottom, select Run Immediately. Then, tap Next.

Step 5

Select New Blank Automation.

If you don’t see this option on your phone, you’re not running the latest iOS 17 update. Refer to the old tutorial instead.

Step 6

Tap Add Action.

Step 7

Search for “one sec” and tap 🅰️ Activate one sec (when app opens).

Step 8

Tap App (must be selected⚠️) in order to re-select the previously selected app.

The Automation won’t run without this.

Then tap Done and you‘re done!
