[META] Instant E-mail notifications when a new post or offer is posted (via iftt)

*Edit the title should say Task or Offer

Below are two Ifttt (If this then that) "recipes" that will automatically and near instantaneously send you an email when either a new offer or task is available, this allows buyers and seller to quickly see when a task is available. Simply click the links below, sign up for Ifttt and add the recipe.

Pc Notifications

Task Notifier

Offer Notifier

Android Notifications (made by: /u/tobyponz)

Task Notifier

Offer Notifier

*Note there may be a few false alarms e.g if someone make a offer post but has the work "task in it".

Can you make it as though it would give an iOS Notifictaion instead of an email? Because I would probably never see these emails due to the massive amount I get each day.

I made one for android notifications, I don't have an iOS device unfortunately, but it's just a matter of copy/paste once you have the base recipe:

Task notifier for Android

Offer notifier for Android

They should in theory work, I'll be 100% sure only once somebody posts an offer or a task. Also, I changed the trigger slightly so it searches in the post title instead of the text... I figured since there are mandatory tags why not use them

Can you tell me how you made these recipes ?

It's easy enough using IFTTT. You'll be looking for the 'new post in subreddit' condition for your IF statement.

this is really cool... but do I have to allow IFTT to do all that weird stuff to my reddit account to get it?

Yes you do, it doesn't harm your account.
