DO Button by IFTTT App Reviews

Good Idea needs work

The app works well but the limit of 3 triggers is strange at best. Also wish I trigger even could do several things at once. For example turn on 5 of 7 of my WEMO switches. Hope there is an ipad version on he way

Clunky

So far, the concept is sound, but the execution is not so great. The point of "Do" is to be able to create simple recipes that you can quickly activate. The problem with this app is that there is too much hunting around for it to be useful. When you create a new recipe, the app displays it full screen. So, if you want to find it amongst the others youve created, you need to swipe side to side to find it. Now imagine for a moment that you want to "Do" something like turn on your Hue lights. You need to open the app, swipe left and right until you find the correct recipe and then activate it. The time it takes to do this is so slow, that you could have just used the Hue app, or the widget. I would like to see a landing page that allows me to access frequently used recipes, without having to hunt for them. It would make using the app so much more effective. As it stands now, I probably wont bother too much with it.

How many apps does to run IFTTT now?

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

Broke my Wemo

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.

Ok start to a good idea

I think this app has promise, but having only three buttons is too limiting unless you can have one button activate multiple (unlimited...) items. More buttons and lengthy activation actions would be great to tackle the IOT market.

Like the app... But why only 3 dos??

If I could get 5-10 do recipes, then app would get 5 stars.

Good app.

Do is great for quickly automating simple tasks. This speed and convenience however could be improved through the implementation of an iOS widget.

Neat app, but ok...

how about changing the app for iPhone 6 plus users, such that more that one button is displayed on screen at once. Say, hmmmm three button wide and scroll down to view more. Its an ok app...

need more button

need modify the button color

Needs more recipes

IFTTT should know how any recipes its users have in IF - why only 3 in DO? Looks like a good app, but the 3 recipe limit will likely keep me from using it as more than a novelty.

Can be improved

App itself works fine, but only three buttons is a bit limited. Also, no labels for the widget is confusing. For example, a button to turn on lights and another to turn off look exactly the same

More apps than necessary

I dont understand the need for multiple apps. I would have preferred a single app evolve from IFTTT than segmenting functions into separate apps. It makes the user experience more clunky and less enjoyable.

Useless

With only 3 recipes. Try 9 at least for free version.

Simple Clean Effective

Three simple buttons with a world of possibility. This is a minimal app for a minimal environment. Thanks guys ... Good work.

Apple watch doesnt show name of wink shortcut

When I View the wink shortcuts on my watch the name does not show up which activity it is, just the icon. The name shows briefly when swiping between the different shortcuts.

App works but...

On the Apple Watch the app shows me a graphic of the device Im controlling on the button, and only quickly flashes the name assigned to the button. This to me is really design over function because I can never figure out which button is which - the name flashes so fast. Please fix this asap to show the name of the button all the time! Its way more useful to have the name then a generic image. Also, can you increase the limit of buttons, three seems hardly enough.

Doesnt Work

I tried using this app to control my Wemo LED Lights, but this app didnt work at all. Not even once.

Love it!

Loving this app and the fact it works with apple watch. New update allows unlimited rules. Was waiting for that!! Just wish they all showed up on the watch not just your first three. But over all great way to control my wemo and I love being able to control from the notification screen without unlocking my phone.

Slow response with Phillips HUE lights

11 seconds to turn my lights off or on. HUE app is instant.
