App and device interaction
Service IFTTT has
launched a new partner
Platform that enables
Third-Party developers to bake the company's automated actions into their apps.
For those unfamiliar with
IFTTT (IF This, Then That), the
Service lets users link smart devices, services, and apps in the form of workflows that trigger automated actions ?
saving photos you're tagged in on Facebook to Dropbox, for instance, or
turning on the heating at home when you leave the ******.
Previously, users had to download the
IFTTT app or log on to its
website to set up such workflows, but the New Partner Platform, which has been in closed beta testing for the last year, means automations can **w be integrated and controlled within other apps, enabling gadgets and services to more easily connect to one a**ther.
The public rollout comes to a number of partners, including video doorbell maker Ring, connected car
Service Automatic, banking app Qapital, air quality monitor Foobot, garage door automation Garageio, smart thermostat Hive, indoor air and health monitoring device Awair, Wi-Fi doorbell Skybell, connected light bulb maker LIFX, responsive lighting maker Stack Lighting, real-time weather
Service Bloomsky, group voice messenger Roger, and home security
Service abode.
Users who own apps or smart devices by any of these companies should be able to make use of the
IFTTT recipe integration any day **w.
The
If app is a free download available for iPad and iPhone on the
App Store [
