The Advantage of Bluetooth Integration
Pair your Apple Watch with AirPods or smart glasses (like Meta glasses) for clearer voice input, enabling an 'invisible' and highly productive AI interaction experience.
API Call Flexibility
You aren't limited to a single function. This API can be configured for various use cases, from controlling your Smart Home lights to querying customer data directly from your company's bot.
Quick Access Tip
Wearing the watch on your wrist provides 'always-on' access to AI, making it significantly faster than pulling a phone out of your pocket to open the ChatGPT or Claude apps.
Step by Step
Configuring the Apple Watch Action Button for AI Voice Commands
- Open the 'Settings' app on your Apple Watch Ultra.
- Scroll down and tap on the 'Action Button' menu.
- Under the 'Action' section, tap the dropdown menu and select 'Shortcut'.
- Select the specific Shortcut you've created to interact with your AI gateway (such as the 'Benji' Shortcut or a custom API script).
- Press the physical Action Button (the orange button on the side of the watch) to test the activation.
- Begin voice 'Dictation' after the button is pressed; the system will capture your voice input via Bluetooth.
- The system will automatically send the voice data through an API call to your chosen AI platform for processing.
