Add new iOS Contacts to Google Sheets automatically
How this automation works
Press the Button widget when you finish work to record your checkout time in Google Sheets. The applet both updates a cell and adds a new row to your specified spreadsheet so you can easily track your work log. This helps you maintain a clear history of when you leave work each day. Note: Install the IFTTT app and add the widget to your home screen.
