Pros and cons of DO Button by IFTTT app for iPhone and iPad

DO Button by IFTTT app good for

Wonderful App!!! Wish create a button that run a set of actions.

Would be nice to tally the totals and convert tenths into actual minutes and hours but again, the app is free so this is great!

Loads quickly. Has a minimalist interface, which a button should.

It is simple, it works when you use it, has some nice interface, and has a good selection of external integration.

Its great for doing what it does and doing it well. But itd be better if it had the ability to connect to more apps and services.

This App is just what I wanted! You can run your IFTT Recipes straight from your phone with a single button push. Perfect!

Some bad moments

Do the developers even use this app themselves? If they did, they would know that the today widget only displays the button for a micro second. You cant see the name. Also, does it make any sense to have one big button on each screen, especially in the iPad app? This is very sad and pretty stupid for a home automation app. This app has the potential to revolutionize home automation. Instead, it hasnt had a real upgrade for years now. Just sad. They started with a great idea and then gave up on it.

Too slow using Philips Hue! Is better to use the own Philips app

I like ifttt so much, but why 4 different apps to use ONE SERVICE? Its a concerning trend....first foursquare, then Facebook and now Ifttt. Why not ONE APP FOR ONE SERVICE????? 2 stars for the DO BUTTON idea...if you assembled it in IF-App then 5 stars.

I have configured 8 Buttons on the iPhone App, but just three appear on the watch app. Please fix.

Clunky interface and you can only have a whopping 3 recipe buttons?! What happened to the old platform that worked just fine before?

When I tried to link to my Wemo Light Switch channel it broke the channel. Now none of my Wemo light switch recipes will work and I cant reactivate the channel. I sent a message to IFTTT tech support over a week ago, no response.
