The Genius Hub channel is now available on IFTTT! You can now connect your system to any other IFTTT ready service (there's a lot there).
What is IFTTT
IFTTT is an easy to use service, allowing you connect together smart home devices, online services (like Facebook or Google Drive) and other internet of things devices (like Amazon Alexa). IFTTT applets are simple to set up, simply requiring a trigger to watch and an action to carry out, for example, when occupancy is detected in your Living Room, play my Spotify playlist.
For those of you who haven’t yet come across IFTTT, it is a service that allows users to connect different services like Google and Dropbox, smart home products, and other connected services, like the fitness app Strava. The services join together through a recipe (now known as an Applet) with a trigger and action providing rich experiences for the user. For example, when I like a song on Spotify, it’s automatically saved to a list on Google docs.
IFTTT was created by Linden Tibbets in 2010 and in 6 short years over 1 billion recipes have been generated by users of the IoT platform.
