I just wanted to share this awesome app which I have been using for quite some time now. I use this app to automate certain things. The app is called IFTTT which is short form for “If This Then That”. IFTTT is a free web-based service to create chains of simple conditional statements, called applets.

IFTTT

An applet is triggered by changes that occur within other web services such as Gmail, Facebook, Telegram, Instagram, or Pinterest.

For example, an applet may send an e-mail message if the user tweets using a hashtag, or copy a photo on Facebook to a user’s archive if someone tags a user in a photo. Its we are just defining certain things to do when certain condition matches.

I am personally using few applets like getting weather report for next day every night. Other app which i am using reminds me to drink cup of water every hour. This app also helps me automatically forward mail to certain email address when i receive emails from certain email addresses so I don’t have to forward mails manually.

Certainly there are limits in what you can do via this app, but there are plenty of applets which can help you automate your day to day task. Visit this link to discover their applets.

Here are some screenshots which i took from my mobile phone:
