Ultra Low Power Mode
The Ultra Low Power Mode shortcut, with 3 levels of low power, intelligent adjusting, and reverting.
Description
Introducing Ultra Low Power Mode 2.1!
You want to enjoy your device for as long as you want - introducing ULPM2. Ultra Low Power Mode 2.1 is a Shortcut that saves battery (although, you probably can tell that from the name). This Battery Saver also allows you to choose how much battery you want to save, unlike some other power savers.
Why Ultra Low Power Mode?
Ultra Low Power Mode 1.0-1.8 was made by @JuhJuhButts, and Ultra Low Power Mode 1.9 Beta - 2.1 is made by @zachary7829. Ultra Low Power Mode 1.9 Beta and Up has iPhone, iPad, and yes, even iPod Touch support, so you can enjoy extended battery on almost any device. 1.9 and 2.0 also support iOS 12 & 13, so you can use it on older firmwares. This shortcut also uses QuickUpdate: Integrated Edition, which not only means you’ll be up to date, but there will be barely any speed difference, and you’ll have a lot of features with updating.

Note: As of 9/23/2019 JuhJuhButts no longer updates this shortcut. He let me, zachary7829, update it, so it still gets frequent updates.

There are so many things wrong with this Shortcut. The notification will always show level 3 or nothing at all. It never deletes its reminders so it always uses the same data and there are so many more Shortcuts that are better like mine: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/815
Try fixing all the bugs and don’t call this Shortcut with such a big name because it doesn’t live up to it.

Also don’t say that it has automatic, say that it has Intelligent since automatic says that the Shortcut runs by itself which it doesn’t do.

Hi there,
Thank you very much for the suggestions. Could you expand on the bugs in my shortcut?
I only ask to improve my shortcut.

zachary7829 here. I am the main developer of ULPM now, all bugs have been fixed as of 2.0. The only thing now is to make an actually good GUI, which will most likely come in 2.1.

It’s good, my only complaint is that it’s buggy. UpdateKit thinks it’s on Version 1.6, when this is Version 1.8, so it tells you that it’s not fully updated even when it is - easy to work around, but I shouldn’t have to even do a work around, it should just work in the first place. Every single time I open it, it makes a new reminder. Every. Single. Time. This would be fine if you could easily delete them, but there is NO WAY to delete them without having to del...

without having to delete every single reminder separately, and keep in mind I used this shortcut for a while before I checked my reminders and discovered the horrible crap covering up my reminders list, so I had to delete - no joke - NINETY SIX REMINDERS SEPERATELY, WHICH TOOK A FREAKING HALF AN HOUR. This bug is probably the most annoying thing about this shortcut. I looked at the code and apparently it looks like Back to Normal was SUPPOSED to delete the... (Continued Below. Again.)

@zachary7829
was SUPPOSED to delete the reminders afterwards, but it LITERALLY DOES NOT DO ANYTHING AT ALL. IF YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE AN ACTION, ACTUALLY CHECK AND SEE IF IT WORKS. Not only that, but back to normal is completely useless because each time you open up the shortcut, it makes a new reminder about the current brightness, even if it’s turned off. This means that when you try to use Back to Normal, it just uses the most recent data - which has... (Continued Below)

@zachary7829
it just uses the most recent data - which has Ultra Low Power Mode turned on. Think about it - Back to Normal is supposed to turn Ultra Low Power Mode off, is being based off of data that turns Ultra Low Power Mode on. That’s right. It does absolutely nothing. In fact, why even use reminders in the first place? Why not just use JSON files, which are much easier to work with? Also, the Shortcut always exits itself before the Notification plays...

@zachary7829
the Notification plays, so it’s completely useless to have an action for it, which also makes it useless to set a variable based on the level. The boot times are extremely slow, also. But, in all honestly, despite everything I still REALLY ENJOYED this shortcut. It works very similar to @AShortcuts Ultimate Power Mode shortcut, but doesn’t have a stupid amount of choices that don’t have names that make sense. However, I do have some suggestions...

@zachary7829
1. Use Actual JSON Documents instead of ABSOLUTELY HORRIDLY STUPID reminders to act as data. 2. Only turn off WiFi if someone chooses Level 3, I kinda need it most of the time. 3. When on Level 3, turn on Do Not Disturb to save more battery. 4. Make boot times faster.

Thank you so much for all the feedback! I understand I've made a few small mistakes which make it really annoying (the version number and stuff) and I apologize for that. I will fix those particular bugs, along with your suggestions 1, 2, and 3. However, I'm not exactly sure how to fix 4. Could you expand on how I could do that? Thanks again for all the feedback!

Thanks for responding to my feedback and trying to fix the bugs! My instructions on how to fix 4 were so long that I had to make a separate shortcut, lol. Here’s the link: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/021363e43aec43f1b107c8f494b7e8f9

Sorry for Swing Updater has more than 400 actions. But you can always check Swing Updater [E], it’s easy to embed, small and supports all the types of versions. I’ll add Skip feature soon. Thanks for trying Swing Updater.
