iOS Reading List to NPR integrations

When NPR publishes a new story, IFTTT automatically adds it to your iOS Reading List. You build up a queue of articles to read later without having to save them manually.

Create your own iOS Reading List and NPR workflow

Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.

3 triggers, queries, and actions

New story published

Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every hour on Free, every 15 minutes on Starter, and every 5 minutes on Pro and Pro+.
 The Trigger fires every time a new story is published on NPR in the selected category, program, or topic.

History of story published

Query
A query lets your Applet retrieve extra data that isn't included in the trigger, so that your automation can include more complete or useful information.
 This query returns a list of stories published on NPR in the selected category, program, or topic.

Add item to Reading List

Action
An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
 This Action will add a new item to your Reading List in Safari.
