IFTTT is a simple yet muscular way toput your digital stuff to workmaking your living easier , automatically . Now , thanks to a collaboration withAutomatic , driver of some 2011 or newer Ford vehicle can summon IFTTT with the push of a direction - wheel button .
Earlier this year , Automatic introduced a $ 100 donglethat plugs into your car’sOBD - II data port wine , allowing you to hatch IFTTT recipes that react to your driving substance abuse , location , or mechanical malfunctions that activate your automobile ’s bridle Engine light . IFTTT ’s open computer architecture allows forsome not bad integrations :
Those integrations are great , but they ’re pretty much set - it - and - forget - it . What if you want an IFTTT formula you could muster on - demand ? If you get a Ford fit with the SYNC interpreter - activated infotainment organisation , and you ’ve got both an iPhone , and Automatic ’s under - style Bluetooth dongle , now you may .
The Modern SYNC update gives Automatic - using Ford drivers the ability to trigger IFTTT recipe using their railroad car ’s build - in voice energizing button . That means you may manually post messages , turn your smart appliance on or off , or basically do anything else IFTTT - able-bodied , right from your driver ’s bum .
Just , please , do n’t attempt to suss out your IFTTT recipes while you ’re driving .
