This app can automate your life!
This is one of the coolest apps I've ever tried, because it can totally automate a lot of things in your work and personal life. Give it a try, you'll be amazed.
PROSYou can use IFTTT (If This Then That) via web or app. I mainly use the Android app, and it works great. There are literally thousands of "recipes" that you can use to cook up some great automation. Examples include creating a daily Google Sheet of the temperature that day, disabling Wi-Fi and bluetooth when your phone battery gets low, etc. You can either use existing "recipes" that others have created, or you can create your own. Very handy app!
CONSSometimes the possibilities seem a little daunting to me, but you just need to use what you understand and need. Don't let it overwhelm you.

In terms of business issues, IFTTT helps us solve several problems, such as automating some tedious tasks, decreasing the time spent on repetitive tasks, integrating different services for more efficient data management, and l improvement in productivity.
PROSSave Time: IFTTT helps automate repetitive tasks, saving time and allowing you to focus on more important tasks. 2. Ease of use: IFTTT is very easy to use, even for people who are not programming or computer experts. 3. Free: IFTTT is free to use, which makes it accessible to everyone.
CONSLimitations: IFTTT has some limitations in terms of features, number of connections and number of requests per day. 2. Security: IFTTT can pose security issues, as it often requires giving access to third-party data and accounts.

Such promise. Much undelivered.
My overall experience with IFTTT is a letdown. And I've held out hope for YEARS. Just couldn't make it useful from a business perspective.
PROSI like the idea of IFTTT more than anything else. The UI is nice and clean.
CONSThe big disappointment in IFTTT is that is just doesn't do enough for professionals/business. Not only that, but trying to modify or edit the settings of an applet is difficult if not impossible. There's just not enough control.
Reasons for switching to IFTTT
I was hoping for greater simplicity and more connected apps.

Automating Tasks between Applications
I've created applets to save my Medium bookmarks to Raindrop.io and Sync new events added from a Google Calendar to my IOS Calendar.
PROSThe IFTTT user interface is very clear to view and easy to use. IFTTT supports a large number of applications to connect.
CONSThe free version doesn't allow multistep applets. Limited filtering tools available to use.

Amazing program!
IFTTT works in so many ways that it's possibilities are endless. From working with Salesforce, Google devices, Smart Home systems and other software you can easily perform 1 command/task and it will initiate another task to essentially get 2 birds with 1 stone. Definitely one of the best products for home and business
PROSI love how IFTTT works with SO many different systems. I am all about automating processes as much as possible and IFTTT works great to make routines so simple
CONSI wish that I could use 1 command to do multiple tasks. With IFTTT you can only automate 1 task but it is possible to make 1 command do other tasks with the same command but it is a tedious process

Scale your Content Management activity
I have been able to multiply my content management strategies for over 20 clients within the last 2 years and be able to create more time for other activities in the business that I run. I hope to eventually have a smart House type of lifestyle whereby activity, creation and management are all in sync and working simultaneously
PROSTime is exponentially managed and saved based on all the automations running at once and assisting me with content management after I spend hours or multiple sessions doing content creation.
CONSThere's no issue but having too much on the Internet of things and not enough on the software as a service platforms.

IFTTT Review
I am a very happy user.
PROSIFTTT is very easy to use and was very easy to teach to my team. I have also gotten many of my friends back in Uganda to use IFTTT because of how it simplifies tasks.
CONSIFTTT used to be free and I loved it. Then they came up with IFTTT Pro which threw me off because most small businesses like a free thing every once in a while. Regardless, the cost is not terribly high so my team continues to use it.

My involvement in IFTTT was extremely certain
IFTTT works in such countless ways that it's prospects are unending. From working with Salesforce, Google gadgets, Shrewd Home frameworks and other programming you can undoubtedly perform 1 order/undertaking and it will start one more assignment to get 2 birds with 1 stone basically. Most certainly one of the most outstanding items for home and business
PROSThe two choices bring a lot to the table. The client assistance is astounding and the site additionally offers instructional exercises on how best to utilize the help to expand your booking.
CONSPerhaps I simply not getting it yet I battle sorting it out. I additionally have seen that the IFTTTs that I've made some of the time work and now and again don't.

If you find yourself repeatedly doing the same action - look into this.
Over the last couple of years, IFTTT has begun to focus a lot more on smart home automation - but there are still some really great triggers available. Using simple logic triggers you can make two different (or even the same) apps communicate and complete actions for you. There is a great user-generated base of ideas for things you can do with the application! It's a great place to start if you either aren't particularly comfortable with technology, or just want to explore what can be done. Some of my favourite actions are - sending me a text when it's supposed to rain or snow the next day. Sending a text with a quote of the day. When I clap for an article on Medium - it will pin the article to a board on Pinterest. Tweet instagram photos with a particular hashtag. Sync your profile picture on Facebook and Instagram. The list goes on. There are also "Buttons" which are manually triggered actions, where you can have an icon available on your phones home screen to - for example - text your partner that you are on your way home. Love it - couldn't live without it.
CONSZapier has begun overtaking it in the volume of apps available to integrate with. But - if you have a smart home, or multiple smart-devices - IFTTT will be a valuable tool for you.

The Essential Smart Home Tool
Overall IFTTT is an essential part of anyone's smart home. Our current devices are very limited to what actions they can execute, but with IFTTT your entire smart home comes together with more unison. It makes the smart home experience flow more smoothly and you have access to hundreds of more features and triggers than if your smart home devices just worked independently of each other.
PROSIFTTT is a necessary part of any smart home. This software gives you the ability to connect the services you use in your home like Eufy, Nest, Phillips, Smart Life, Google Assistant etc. You are able to easily create triggers that make other things happen. So if you say "I am home" you could trigger the lights, AC, and turn on the TV all with just one simple phrase. I love how easily it streamlines your smart home experience. One of the best features is just how many products it supports, there are hundreds of services that you can link to IFTTT so it is likely that the devices you use will be featured there.
CONSI do wish that when a command could not properly be executed it notifies me either on my Google Assistant or on my phone. I also have had issues with some services not providing all of their features as triggers or actions, which can make actions more difficult to create.

IFTTT is key to my Social Media strategy
I have been using the app since 2016 and have loved how much I can do with it. Not only is it an app that helps my social media strategy out but also keeps me organized. It’s really a set it and forget it platform. If anything, try it out for yourself. That’s what I did and haven’t looked back since.
PROSThere are so many options to link info between social media platforms as well as others apps/programs to keep me updated
CONSSome platforms make you re-initiate their service and you have to log back in to reactive. This can cause miss posts, but it is an easy fix to log into the app and turn it back on to work again.
Reasons for switching to IFTTT
Price and ease of use.

Do things with your other things that those things don't do on their own
IFTTT is an essential tool for me. I use it to turn my lights on and off. I have a custom bedtime scene for my son that is triggered by "Goodnight [Son's Name]" that we use every single night. And it also improved my experience with Todoists subpar Google Assistant functionality. I couldn't do any of these things so easily without it.
PROSA great way to automate simple tasks, and extend the functionality of other products you own to do things they don't do on their own. For example, add custom commands to Google Assistant. Add even more smarts to your smart lighting. Post daily exchange rates to a Slack channel. Those are some of the things I use IFTTT for on literally a daily basis.
CONSCreating your own custom integrations is very clunky. I usually don't want to use someone else's premade integration. And I don't create new ones often enough to remember how I did it the last time. But every single time I find I have to hunt on the site for a few minutes to find the button to click to start a new integration from scratch. Why is this not the default landing page? I believe it used to be.

Good product for some use cases, not for others
It's very beginner's friendly, and you can set up an automation in an intuitive way with no prior experience.
CONSIt's not very open to changes, and has a pretty limited amount of services and integrations compared to alternatives like Zapier and Integromat.

It used to be better but remains great
IFTTT is a cornerstone of my digital life. It automates my music listening habits at the same time it make my work easier. As Brazilian, sometimes I have to appeal to Brazilian alternatives due to specific apps unsupported by it, but I still love the whole idea and execution of IFTTT.
PROSIFTTT automates boring stuff from leisure and home to study and work. A whole world of integrations.
CONSI loved it more when it allowed me to personally set the triggers and actions, instead of giving me whole "recipes". This restricted the possibilities although have made automations more reliable.

Very useful for adding functionality to my mobile devices and apps
Automatically notifies me when there is any change made to any of my shared calendars Automatically notifies me when an Alexa timer goes off, when I'm in another room in the house Automatically sends me an email if it is going to rain tomorrow Automatically gives me a notification at 6am every day with the weather report Automatically gives me a notification if my CO or Smoke detectors detect an alarm situation Very easy to use and setup
CONSI wish there were even more "canned" templates, as they are much easier to use than creating your own custom templates (although it is possible to do that as well).

Very useful for office automation
IFTTT has helped to to ensure that my office is automated to suit me and my clients. I have smart plugs set which, when used with IFTTT, help to start heaters to warm my office for work when I am nearly home, making sure that I am comfortable and have less to do manually when i get back.
PROSI like the ability to link IFTTT with other, real-world events (such as the time of the sun setting), as I can then automate my office to behave in the way I want it to without lifting a finger.
CONSSometimes some of the 'triggers' take a little to work (for example, sometimes my office lamp comes on 10 minutes or so after sunset, which is a pain).
