[**IFTTT**](https://ifttt.com/trakt) now has an official Trakt channel! This allows you to connect your Trakt account with hundreds of other services and opens up a lot of really cool possibilities.

**IFTTT + Trakt**  
_View all the applets, triggers, queries, and actions that Trakt can use. Make sure to check back regularly since IFTTT is always adding more_

## What is IFTTT?

[**IFTTT**](https://ifttt.com/trakt), which is short for _If This Then That_, is the easiest way to do more with hundreds of the apps and devices you love, including [Trakt](https://ifttt.com/trakt), [Twitter](https://ifttt.com/twitter), [Dropbox](https://ifttt.com/dropbox), [Evernote](https://ifttt.com/evernote), and [Google Assistant](https://ifttt.com/google_assistant).

IFTTT calls these services. They help you connect your services together in remarkable new ways with Applets. Applets are like mini, active apps you can create — things your Trakt account can’t do on its own.

## What can I do?

Here are some of the fun applets you can use right now. Make sure to check the [**Trakt IFTTT page**](https://ifttt.com/trakt) since they’ll be adding new ones too!

> **Note:** since these are officially published applets, you can enable as many as you want, even with a free IFTTT account.

There are also more advanced triggers, queries, and actions that can be used to create custom recipes on IFTTT. More of these will be added soon too.

## How do I connect Trakt and IFTTT?

Head over to the [**IFTTT Trakt page**](https://ifttt.com/trakt) and click the _Connect_ button.

After signing into your IFTTT account, it will redirect to Trakt and ask your permission to connect Trakt and IFTTT.
