How to send your Trello tasks to Reminders with IFTTT

Thanks to IFTTT, you can keep track of your Trello tasks with the Reminders app on your iPhone and iPad.

Many people and organizations, including us here at iMore, rely on Trello in order to plan out content, assign work and keep everything organized. But for an individual, keeping track of tasks assigned to you in Trello might be easier if you could do so in your own system for keeping up with your to-dos. Luckily, IFTTT provides a solution.

IFTTT, for those who are unfamiliar, is a web service that connects with other apps and service to help you automate routine tasks. For instance, you can create an IFTTT action, called an Applet, to send you a weather report every morning at a set time. But more importantly, for our purposes, you can use IFTTT to link together two disparate services, in this case, Trello and the iOS Reminders app.

Getting started

To get started, the first thing you’ll need is a free account with IFTTT, which you can sign up for on its website. You’ll also wa…

How to evolve Togetic in Pokémon Go right now!

How do you evolve Togetic, currently the rarest Pokémon currently in the game, and jumpstart your Gen 2 Pokédex? Like this!

Togetic is the evolution of Togepi, the Gen 2 Pokémon baby still partially trapped in her egg. It’s also probably the rarest and hardest to get Pokémon in the game right now. That’s because you can’t hatch Togetic from a Pokémon egg and you can’t, much less catch one in the wild. But, you can still get Togetic now. Here’s how!

How would you change iCloud?

If Apple asked you what you wanted to see in the next ’version’ of iCloud Drive, what would you tell them?

iCloud is Apple’s online service that consists of iCloud Photo Library, iCloud Drive, iCloud Keychain, and a long list of other features, right down to email, contact, and calendar sync. It deputed alongside iOS 5, way back in 2011, and since then has grown, fumbled, frustrated, marveled, and enabled iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Mac users everywhere. But what should it do next?

The array of online services offered by Google and Microsoft are obvious points of comparison, as are Amazon and Dropbox for some of them as well. Yet iCloud is also uniquely Apple. So, if Eddy Cue asked you what you wanted to see from iCloud, what would be on your wish-list?

Increase the free storage tier. Make it 10 or 20 GB before you have to pay!
Free Photo storage for every iPhone owner. Google’s doing it, kinda!
Free device backup. If you buy a 256 GB iPhone or iPad, you get to back i…

Best backup services and programs for your Mac

Are you still trying to decide on the best backup service for your Mac? We’ve got a few suggestions.

Anyone in the tech industry, and every IT person, and your friend that knows a thing or two about computers will tell you how important it is to back up your data. No matter how new your Mac is, it is not infallible, and therefore is subject to the laws of reality, which are that sometimes things go wrong. You can look the other way and pretend that it will never happen to you, but the moment you see that distorted screen, or hear that weird clicking noise coming from your computer, you’re going to wish you had backed up your data. So, I’m here to give you some suggestions to help you secure and store your most precious files with a list of the best online backup services and external hard drive backup programs.
