I’ve always been excited about how technology can make our lives easier, especially when it comes to automating our smart home. Recently, I came across a helpful guide on integrating IFTTT applets with Apple’s Shortcuts app and Siri. This integration has been a game-changer for me, allowing me to create custom routines that make my home smarter and more efficient.
When Apple transitioned from Workflow to Shortcuts, I was a bit disappointed because IFTTT support wasn’t included. However, this guide showed me how to bridge that gap. I followed the instructions and set up a few routines, like turning on my lights when I arrive home or adjusting the thermostat based on the weather. It’s amazing how much control I now have with just my voice or a quick shortcut.
One thing I noticed is a slight delay when using the Apple Watch, but overall, it’s been a smooth experience. I can’t recommend this guide enough for anyone looking to enhance their smart home setup without relying solely on third-party apps.
If you’ve tried integrating IFTTT with Shortcuts, I’d love to hear about your experiences or any cool routines you’ve created!
