Jared D.: I'm Jared, a nonprofit consultant, and I would give IFTTT a five out of five stars. For more reviews like this, click the link below. Before IFTTT, or If This Then That, I would try using different shortcuts in different applications like in my Gmail account, in Apple Notes, and in different Apple products. I would try to create different workarounds or triggers using other tools like that. But I didn't really find another tool like If This Then That until it came along that could really allow other apps to communicate between each other in a way that was super simple and quick to set up and worked across platforms. I initially chose it because it was free and super simple to sign up and start playing with the tool and seeing different ways that I could set up integrations and what they call recipes. It's a way for an app to sync or communicate with another app. The main reason was just how I'd heard from other friends how easy it was to set up and use, and there aren't really limits in terms of so many syncs that can happen. There's other tools out there that they may charge for the number of triggers or recipes. But with If This Then That, for what I needed, I could stick with the free version, and it's been able to do everything that I've needed. Yeah, the setup process was super simple. I was up and running with it in minutes, really. You create your free account. Like I said, you didn't have to put billing info on file or anything like that. I mean, they do have a pro version that you can upgrade to if you need to, but I got signed up within a matter of minutes. And then they have recipes that other users have already put together for you, so I could just search for what I was wanting to do. Usually, there was already something that someone else had set up, so I could just use their same recipe. And then I just added in my own details to it to customize it a bit, but I didn't really have to create it from scratch. So that was super simple and really quick. Yeah, it's just been a great tool. Yeah, for anyone else that's considering it, go ahead and sign up. It's free. You can test it out. You'll get up and running really quick. If you're looking for more of an advanced integration between platforms or apps, If This Then That is designed to be pretty simple. There is a tool called Zapier as well. Zapier, you can get a little bit more customized with what fields you want to sync data between different platforms or apps. So depending on how robust your needs are, If This Then That might be a better option for you. But if you're just looking for something more for... I've mostly used it just for me personally as a way to stay organized and streamline my workflows and just my email and my reminders and different to-do lists that I have, and then different things on social media. It's been a great tool to use for doing all of that. And again, it's free and super quick to set up.
