How to make your iPhone automatically type a ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ whenever you want
It doesn't have to be this way — not for the shruggie, and not for any complex, long phrase that you want to be able to type fast. The iPhone's keyboard has a built-in way to automatically replace a piece of text with a different piece of text, and it's super easy to use.
To create one of these shortcuts, go into settings and navigate to General > Keyboard > Text Replacement. From there, tap the "+" icon. The Phrase field is where you'll copy-and-paste your shruggie… for the last time.
Then, in the Shortcut field, type the phrase you want to activate your moment of "bemused resignation." I use "shruggie," but you could go for something even more succinct, like "shrug" or just "sh" (sadly, emoji aren't allowed).
Now that you've got your shruggie shortcut, it should work whenever you type your activation phrase. Of course, the shruggie is just an example — you can obviously use this tool for any phrase you want to have at the ready, and the shortcuts will work across all your keyboards, even third-party ones.
For fans of shruggies, both Google and Slack added the ability to quickly type a shruggie in via a slash command. In Hangouts, just type "/shruggie" in the conversation, and in Slack, "/shrug" is the magic phrase.
