Reviews
Pretty much useless
Joe Easterly
I don’t want to wade through thousands of other peoples applets when I know exactly what I need and want to create the applet for myself. The ability to create an applet has been either removed or buried as an Easter egg so I have to use the website to do it. The whole point of IFTTT is to have set-it-and-forget-it workflows, and since you can’t set it, you might as well forget it. This app is basically useless.
Design nightmare
Mbierman
It used to be easy to get started. Now I literally can’t figure out how to create a new applet from scratch. No idea how to set up new services.
Confusing interface
PSG9001
The service does a decent, if laggy, job of connecting various devices and having them work in concert. However, the interface is a confusing mess. The recent redesign hasn’t helped. It’s hard to tell what’s on or off. A monochromatic palette doesn’t help when contrast (how about a red/green dot to indicate what’s on/off?) is needed to tell the state of applets. A simple list of ones applets on the home screen would help a lot. I would use something else if I had a choice.
Great service terrible app
..NKh..
Terribly confusing app. Couldn't even see my existing widgets easily. Really bad Navigation. I think they are trying to make it cool, but it's taking focus away from the main product.
Why so hard to create new custom applet?

It used to be easy to create a new applet by selecting the trigger, then choose an action. Now it seems to direct you to find one that’s already created and makes it hard to find where to create custom applets. TERRIBLE UI!
Sorry... this is only For the super techy

Who has time for this. App keeps you guessing what the hell is going on.
Removed all reason for existing

Have many custon applets created in this app, and was away from it for a little. Switched pbones, which also updated the app to this nightmare. The whole point of IFTTT was to be able to create custom triggers for things to happen, and as far as I can tell THET REMOVED ALL CUSTOM APPLET FUNCTIONALITY. Why on Earth they would do this is beyond me, and deeply saddens me. If you have a previous version of the app, do not update! Come on IFTTT, you have killed your baby.
The new app UI is HORRENDOUS!

You have made the app's UI so badly designed it is near impossible to use. I am actively looking for a replacement for your service. It is just not worth it.
