Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.

2 triggers, queries, and actions

Any new contact

Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every hour on Free, every 15 minutes on Starter, and every 5 minutes on Pro and Pro+.
This Trigger fires every time you add any new contact.

Add item to Reading List

Action
An action is the task your Applet carries out after the trigger occurs. It defines what happens as the result of your automation and completes the workflow.
This Action will add a new item to your Reading List in Safari.
