Create your own SMS and Vybit Push Notifications 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.
5 triggers, queries, and actions
Send IFTTT an SMS tagged
Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
Send IFTTT a tagged SMS by adding a hashtag symbol anywhere in the message (e.g. #IFTTT).
Send IFTTT any SMS
Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
This Trigger fires every time you send any SMS to your IFTTT phone number.
Placeholder
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.
Vybit does not currently have any triggers, but one query is required to publish so this is a placeholder query.
Send me an SMS
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 send an SMS to your mobile phone.
Send Vyb
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 trigger a specified Vyb in your Vybit account.

About Vybit Push Notifications
Vybit (VIBE-it) sends personalized push notifications using sounds that you record or choose from thousands of searchable sounds. Put the information in the sound!
Vybit is a natural fit as an IFTTT ACTION service since the DISTINCT sound YOU CHOOSE will tell you exactly what TRIGGER service event just occurred. No need to look down at your phone, your ears already told you! Vybit also works great as a SECONDARY action service for you IFTTT Pros.
Using Vybit to create an applet is easy. Install the Vybit app on your phone (or sign in on the web), create your vybits, connect your Vybit account to IFTTT, and then choose the desired vybit for your applet.
Never look down at your phone again! Or at least a lot less. :)
