Time, Tasks, and Totally Organized: IFTTT, Your Digital Assistant

Feeling like your tasks are running circles around you? From juggling appointments to managing files and tracking tasks, staying organized can feel like a full-time job. With IFTTT, you can finally make time management and organization a piece of cake (or at least easier to slice!). Acting as your ultimate digital assistant, it connects and automates your favorite tools and services, helping you regain control of your day.

What is IFTTT?

IFTTT is the most trusted automation system on the market today, helping millions of people like you stay organized every day.

The basic idea behind IFTTT is to create Applets or sets of instructions that trigger when certain conditions are met. For example, our powerful system can turn on the lights automatically when you enter your house. Our system can also be expanded to complex automation, such as logging files in a spreadsheet or generating custom reports to keep you on track.

Founded in 2011, IFTTT has since been used by over 30 million individuals around the globe to automate both business and home tasks, saving time and increasing efficiency. It's used to connect over 1000 different services and systems, making all products and services work well together in a way that instills user confidence. Best of all, it's free to start and only takes a couple of minutes to set up.

Streamline calendar and time organization

Never miss an appointment or double-book your time again. With IFTTT, you can:

Sync your calendar and tasks

Add tasks with deadlines directly to your calendar(s), whether it’s your Google Calendar or iOS Calendar, keeping everything in sync. You can also automatically create tasks for every new calendar event, or sync your to-do lists if you use more than one, like Todoist and iOS Reminders.

Get daily summaries

Receive a daily email or notification summarizing your events and tasks.

Smarter data management

IFTTT makes data management easy whether you’re working with spreadsheets or tracking metrics.

Sync data across platforms

Automatically update a document or database whenever new information is added on a specific platform. For example, you can keep a spreadsheet of new articles on Pocket or The New York Times, track mentions on social media like Twitter (X), or log the exchange rate daily.

Automate form response management

Save new form responses directly to cloud storage, share responses to your preferred channel, or create a task for every new response you receive.

Track personal metrics

Log activities or habits in a spreadsheet to help you eat healthier, meet your workout goals, track your sleep, and more. For example, creating a schedule and tracking your workouts can help you stay consistent and reach your fitness goals, whether by using Google Calendar for events, Fitbit for reminders, or Strava to track progress.

Or when it comes to eating healthier, syncing your grocery list with a voice assistant ensures you don’t forget to grab something on your list, and getting a digest of new recipes or trending topics from your favorite bloggers can make sure you have lots of exciting ideas ready!

Organize photos

Sync photos to designated folders in your cloud storage automatically.
