How an IFTTTer simplifies their daily life

We’re in a world where staying on top of tasks can feel like juggling flaming torches while riding a unicycle. There’s always something on your plate, whether it’s work, tasks, personal errands, or hobbies you’re trying to keep up with. But what if there was a way to lighten the load and make your day-to-day life flow effortlessly?

The Challenge

An IFTTTer, Chelsea, found herself bouncing between multiple apps, manually transferring information, and repeating the same mundane tasks every day. She wanted to be more productive and focus on the more important aspects of her life, but spent too much time managing her tools instead of letting them work for her.

Her work-life balance was often interrupted by the constant need to manage different tools and update information across platforms: keeping her personal and professional calendars aligned, tracking her accomplishments, and ensuring her files were backed up across platforms. She needed a solution that could connect her favorite apps and make them work together.

How to automate your every day life with IFTTT

Chelsea is all about working smarter, not harder, and these three automations help her do just that:

1. Syncing calendars and to-do lists

Whenever she has a new event added to her Google Calendar, it gets added to her Notion to-do list. By integrating the two, all her Google Calendar events automatically appear in her Notion workspace, giving her one place to see everything without having to enter things twice.

2. Tracking work hours easily

Whenever she presses the Button widget, then a new row is added to a Google Spreadsheet, logging her work hours. With just one tap, staying organized has never been easier!

3. Keeping files synced across platforms

Whenever a new file is added to a Dropbox folder, it will be automatically uploaded to Google Drive. This ensures her personal files are well-organized and securely backed up across both platforms.
