In this case we are going to see how to create a recipe in IFTTT for Twitter. In this way, if, for example, every morning we publish a tweet saying good morning to our followers, with this recipe, IFTTT will take care of doing it for us, so we can forget about having to publish our good morning tweet every morning.
HOW TO CREATE A RECIPE ON IFTTT FOR TWITTER ON IPHONE, IPAD AND IPOD TOUCH
The first thing we have to do is download the app on our iOS device. Once downloaded, we must register on this platform, this registration is completely free, so we do not have to pay anything to use this service.
When we are already registered, we will access the main screen. Here to start using our recipes, we must click on the icon that we have in the upper right part.
By clicking here we must click on the "+" symbol, to create our recipe to taste, that is, what we want this platform to do for us. In this case, post a tweet every day.
The famous phrase “if + then +” will appear. In this case, we must choose the first + symbol to start creating the recipe
Now, we must look for a symbol very similar to a clock, this will be the first one that we must press to set the time of our tweet. By clicking on this icon, we must activate it, that is, tell the app what time zone we are in.
If we already have it activated, we must choose the first option of this function, which is “Every day at”. Here we will choose the time of our tweet .
It's time to use the other part of the recipe. At the end of the first part, we will return to the main menu of our recipe. Now we must press the following symbol +.
In this case, we must look for the Twitter logo, and as we have done at the beginning, we must activate our Twitter account to be able to use it in IFTTT . When we have activated our account, we must choose the first option that appears on the list, which is “Post a tweet”. Therefore, we click on this first option.
We will already have created our recipe in IFTTT for Twitter, but our message remains to be specified. To do this, click on the already created recipe.
A new screen will appear, with several tabs among which we can edit, delete our recipe. Since what we want is to add a text to our tweet, we click on “Edit”.
Now we can modify our message, to do this, we go to the bottom, where we will see a small box that says "What's happening?". This is where we should write our message.
And in this way, we created a recipe in IFTTT for Twitter , so that every day you post a tweet for us. In this case, a good morning message. But we can create the message we want and at the time we want, a good way to serve our followers without having to be constantly connected.
With IFTTT, we can do many things, which in APPerlas we are going to teach you, for now we have explained how to post a tweet automatically, so don't miss future tutorials of IFTTT , because it will be very useful for more than one.
