IFTTT, short for "If This Then That", is a great web service for automating tasks between internet services. It's been a while since it has started and now it's on Android (and iPhone too).
Most Android users would have heard about Tasker, an app which runs specific tasks based on the context. IFTTT is like Tasker, but for the web.
There's a lot you can do with the service, most obvious ones are: changing your Twitter picture automatically as your Facebook picture is changed, getting a notification if it's raining tomorrow, backing up your phone's contacts to Google spreadsheets etc.
Now that IFTTT is available on Android, you can be even more creative. There are five new channels introduced: Android Device, Location, Phone call, Photos, SMS.
So if you've misplaced your phone which is on silent mode, you can increase the ringtone volume by sending an E-mail. This is possible because IFTTT now has permissions to control your Android device.
To get started, check out the most popular recipes in their site.
To enable the Android channels, you have to first install the app on your device. Get it from the link below.
