thanks Richard, I totally forgot about trying copilot. I'll give it a
try and report back.

I don't use shortcuts, so I asked Copilot if this can be done.
This is what it said. You will have to try it to see if it actually
works.
Yes, you can create a shortcut on your iPhone to toggle silent mode.
Here's how you can do it:
1. Open the *Shortcuts* app on your iPhone.
2. Tap the *+* button to create a new shortcut.
3. Tap *Add Action*.
4. Search for *Set Silent Mode* and select it.
5. Tap the word *Turn* to reveal a drop-down menu and select
*Toggle*. This will allow the shortcut to switch between turning
silent mode on and off.
Once you've created the shortcut, you can add it to your home screen
or use Siri to activate it. This way, you can easily toggle silent
mode without having to use the physical switch on your iPhone

I have been trying to figure out how to do this since getting my 16E.
I want to use my action button for a different need. I have searched
everywhere I can think of and have dug through all the shortcuts and
actions but cannot find a way to do this.
If anyone else can figure this out I sure would appreciate hearing
about it. I would even consider using a backtap gesture to toggle
silent mode if that can be done.
