I've watched several of your videos, Steve, and I really like the very natural way you present. No egos or irritating habits; and everything said with sincerity, not too fast or high-pitched etc. Content is good and well presented also - not to mention the visual and audio quality! I saw you commenting . on the use of your Logitec webcam recently also, and wondered how much better it is to the iMac's built-in camera? I have already subscribed (some time back), but just wanted to say how awesome this IFTTT software is and multitude of ways one can use and implement it. As you say, when other people share what they are doing, you indeed do get ideas and new ways of working yourself. So a big thank-you from happy subscriber! Keep up the good work, Steve...........and congratulations on your recent marriage too (see, I wasn't joking when I said I watch your videos ;-). Long may it continue! :-)
I fully agree, Steve is really prepared and professional, and its voice is clear and understandable, this may be overseen by english language speakers but, for people from abroad, it's important to listen to a video with a perfect diction. Thanks !
Thank’s Steve. What a super new set of features. I have used IFTTT for quite a while in conjunction with my Google Home Automation, but sometimes I like to automate things with just the Phone or IPad. I will definitely be making use of these new features.
Wow I use to see you on TV years ago?? And you had a side kick if I remember. Great to see you. Looking well. I will be catching up on your feeds. Thanks for being there.
You should create an updated video regarding the "button trigger" in IFTTT. The video is out of date (no camera or note button trigger anymore) regarding the current state of IFTTT.
Steve, I have an issue with the Camera Roll you might be able to create a video about. I find that my Photos have been sucked into the Google Photos and are no longer in the Camera Roll. This is both scary and frustrating, but I can always eventually find the photos. Do you have any ideas for Organizing Photos better to make Finding the Photos easier? IFTTT should probably be applicable.
IFTTT is beyond awesome. i made it my automation hub ever since i found it. and these new "Do" buttons are great! the only downside is that there's quite a bunch of phone-related actions i would like to put to use, but IFTTT doesn't seem to support phone numbers outside North America yet :(
I was hoping your video was going to show me how to create a "Do" recipe from scratch, but alas, you stopped short. I can see how to create "IFTTT" recipes and I see how to add pre-published "Do" recipes but I can't seem to figure out how to create a whole new "Do" recipe. A little help?
I've been using IFTTT for a while, but I have found several times where it would be great if they supported If|Then|Else or CASE statements. But then it would actually be programming..
I am seeking a Custom Recipe to be made. I cant figure out how to make one and I cant figure out how to find Developers that make them. No clue where to turn, so...I am trying here! I am seeking something that looks at my local weather, a day in advance, selects the best weather for outdoor exercise (parameters I could set), and creates a 60-90 minute Appointment in my OUTLOOK
Can anyone tell me how I can edit the fields in Google Spreasheet that are auto created by IFTTT. There are fields that are auto created in Google Spreadsheets. How would I edit created fields in an applet for google spreadsheets?
IFTT is driving me crazy! I am trying to set up a recipe so that when a reminder comes due on a note in Evernote, I get a notivication on my iPhone 6s - or even a text message. Darned if I can figure it out! Could you possibly spend some time showing how create recipes? Everyone seems to just mow right over it. Thanks.
Hi , thanks for posting, im searching for a electrical multimeter that can be connected to ifttt ? I want to connect the multimeter to a DC battery , when the voltage decrease to certain level i want to disconnect other switch thats connected to ifttt ? Any idea ? Thanks .
Thanks Steve for that video. I dont see the point, why would you use the do app to add an Evernote note instead of using Evernote app directly, it is easy too to add a note, just one click
ActuMoto If evernote is not open it may take a few less steps, but I have not timed it out, I do like the note taking format (bigger text). It is not a "game changer" just for Evernote Notes, you are correct there!
I enjoy your sessions and find that this 83yoa Texas mind can still compute maybe 20-25% on the first runs. A summation of buttons to push would be nice. Keep up the good work.

The demand and need for content that explains how much IFTTT can helpout and reduce risk during this unfortunate virus time period. Example when anyone enters our home, Google Home will automatically instruct them to use the hand sanitizer beside the door. Then the smart speaker explains the safety rules of our home and then guides the person through each step of the protocol we follow whenever we return from outside. Ending with clean hands and door knobs that haven't been touched before the hand sanitizer was used. we use IFTTT to make it all work. A multipurpose sensor on the door triggers a routine to run on a Google home mini. The Google home speaks specific statements that are different if a family member arrived at home or a much different statement if a guest enters the home. This is done with family members cell phones being recognized they get near the house. And IFTTTs powerful ability to link devices that are not compatible makes the process and cost much much more palatable. Family members are reminder to sanitize immediately upon entering then after removing shoes they are told to wash with soap. Much different than a guest. I think this topic regarding the virus and smart home devices and applications with IFTTT is incredibly important right now helpful enough to improve quality of life and possibly even save someone. Finally there is hardly any content addressing the specific niche dottotech there are lots of ideas that need a knowledgeable person we can trust like yourself behind this content for it to have the most benefit and I hope these videos are so successful that they become "viral" after all sitting at home for so many days it's nice to feel useful and set up some automations that can help my family
I LOVE these DO apps! DO Note is my favorite because it allows me to quickly add new note to Evernote, then swipe and add task to Todoist, then swipe and tweet, then swipe and post to Facebook...all within the same app and all in just a few seconds. To do those four things use to require me to open four separate apps, now I open one and its done. Sure, it only saves 30 seconds or so, but you'll be surprised how satisfying it is to not have to open multiple apps. #doappdoapp #castlestormer
+dottotech It's very much worth spending the time to set up... and creating "recipes" is fun! DoNote has become the app that I probably use the most... besides Evernote that is.
Many thanks. That sounds good - there is little out on IFTTT - i have been struggling on how to get it it send and save an email attachment to Dropbox - it keeps just saving my .gif logo! I wonder if it might be easier to use Zapier but as I hadn't heard of either until I saw your webinars last week I still have alot to learn!
dottotech If you look on the website of IFTTT you will find many recipe's for that. For example when you upload a video you can make it so that is will post it on any kind of blogsite under a specific tag. I do that but that is just one of the many things. I suggest making mutiple recipes that trigger each other ;)
I have had limited success with ITTT but this new functionality is just amazing. Thanks for the inspiring video.

Great Video. Been using IFTTT for over a year and love it.
Steve, what do you think about Neato as opposed to the new app to send notes to Evernote?

Another awesome video Steve! Thanks for moving my tech world in a good direction. Gotta go storm the castle now.
Cheers. Mr. Luigi
mrluigiproduction :-)
I need more details about setting up the Evernote stuff. And then how to use it after it set up.

Rafael Ulloa More to come I am sure!

I've been using IFTTT for a while, but I have found several times where it would be great if they supported If|Then|Else or CASE statements. But then it would actually be programming..
John Overstreet LOL the average person takes a while to get their head around the simple form! But a "Pro" version may be an idea!
Thanks, Steve. Was familiar with IFTT, but these buttons/functions are very useful and powerful..
Jerry McKee I find I am using IFTTT more actively now, by that I mean I invoke processes, in the past I used it as a background tool.
dottotech Now, the rest of us old folk (over 50 but under 55) have to try and play catch up!
I am seeking a Custom Recipe to be made. I cant figure out how to make one and I cant figure out how to find Developers that make them. No clue where to turn, so...I am trying here!

Liking this app and will help with productivity, if used correctly.
Can anyone tell me how I can edit the fields in Google Spreasheet that are auto created by IFTTT. There are fields that are auto created in Google Spreadsheets. How would I edit created fields in an applet for google spreadsheets?
IFTT is driving me crazy! I am trying to set up a recipe so that when a reminder comes due on a note in Evernote, I get a notivication on my iPhone 6s - or even a text message.

Great suggestion, let me see what I can do!
Very timely, thanks.
This is so cool. So many possibilities, I'm not sure where to start!
Ronnie And it is very early, more recipes to follow I am sure!
Hi , thanks for posting, im searching for a electrical multimeter that can be connected to ifttt ? I want to connect the multimeter to a DC battery , when the voltage decrease to certain level i want to disconnect other switch thats connected to ifttt ? Any idea ? Thanks .
No idea, sorry.
Great video as always. Do you know if this set of features is coming for Windows Phone?
Lars Gregersen I have no idea, perhaps someone from IFTTT is monitoring social media and they can jump in with an answer!
Thanks Steve for that video. I dont see the point, why would you use the do app to add an Evernote note instead of using Evernote app directly, it is easy too to add a note, just one click
ActuMoto If evernote is not open it may take a few less steps, but I have not timed it out, I do like the note taking format (bigger text). It is not a "game changer" just for Evernote Notes, you are correct there!
I've found it far quicker that opening the app and selecting a new note. I agree, I like the large text.
I enjoy your sessions and find that this 83yoa Texas mind can still compute maybe 20-25% on the first runs.
A summation of buttons to push would be nice.
Keep up the good work.
Bob Hoff Thanks Bob! Good luck!
How do you show the live iPhone screen on this video ?
I use several techniques. Check out my screencasting videos for tutorials
dottotech Thank you so much for replying
First time I've seen your video. Great job. QUESTION - What app are you using for voice recognition?
Scott B Native voice recognition on the iPhone
dottotech Darn it! You *iPhone* users! What about the *poor* people who can only afford Annnndroiiiiiidddddd! LOL!
Teach Her2Fish Android has the same thing.They are just more difficult to feature in videos.
:::Gives *mean* look at my Android:::
Why do you ALWAYS have to be so darn difficult? Didn't we have that conversation about how you should act? You don't see iPhone's giving their owners problems. DO YOU?!? :::snickers:::
I had found a recipe which let me to quickly add task to todoist. It is similar to evernote's recipe but it is pretty useful.
Areeb Ijaz Great to hear!
you can tell siri: add milk to grecery list. and it´s done. no need for iftt
John Constable but I am telling to add task to todoist but siri can't add to todoist.
John Constable Siri's an idiot. She can't hear very well...lol.
it works very well for me. all my grocery is in a list that i dictate to siri. works like a charm
Thats great app they have.
thanks Steve
Great video dottotech! Fun fact: IFTTT is pronounced like "gift" without the "g".
Account News Thanks, way shorter than the way I do it!
For some strange reason itunes is asking for my credit card info for a free program so I can't get it on my iphone.
+Debé VanderHeide That is unusual, I don't remember that being the case.
+dottotech Just tried again and entered NONE for charge card and it worked. Maybe it was required after installing the ISO upgrade.
That is very cool. Thank you for sharing. By the way, where is the webinar about Instagram?
Sergio Matta My Pleasure! The Instagram webinar was hosted by Sue B. Zimmerman, I don't think she still has it up, but there are loads of resources on her site!
Thank You.
Hey Sergio Matta I have an Instagram play list on TH-cam come on over :-)
I will Sue. Thank you very much.

@rj miller How did you trigger a routine on Google home mini? Google Assistant is only available on IFTTT's 'if' portion and not the end point.
I use IFTTT to save the starred news from Feedly and store it in Evernote

John Marshall Taking the time to set up a process is worth it in the end! Thanks John!
+dottotech It's very much worth spending the time to set up... and creating "recipes" is fun!
DoNote has become the app that I probably use the most... besides Evernote that is.
Do app do app do app. This was hilarious
Can you direct me to your IFTTT video please? Many thanks
It is getting a little long in the tooth, I should probably Record a new one.
th-cam.com/video/MVM5deFMJD8/w-d-xo.html
Many thanks. That sounds good - there is little out on IFTTT - i have been struggling on how to get it it send and save an email attachment to Dropbox - it keeps just saving my .gif logo! I wonder if it might be easier to use Zapier but as I hadn't heard of either until I saw your webinars last week I still have alot to learn!
I love that site!
The Honest Blogger! Site? What site? I only added the Do app through my phone....throws hands up...what the heck did I miss?!?
IFTTT.com
Whew...thaaank you!
Teach Her2Fish No problem... you can also look at Zapier
at 10:29 (HTML tag in the template) it is not a programming language lol
500px is a website, not a photo size. :-)
dottotech Also you can use it to auto promote your channel...but you knew that right :P
PatrickDFTBA I actually missed that, how does it do that?
dottotech If you look on the website of IFTTT you will find many recipe's for that. For example when you upload a video you can make it so that is will post it on any kind of blogsite under a specific tag. I do that but that is just one of the many things.

Lot of chatting.
