Spotify Alarm

Utilizing [IFTT recipe](https://ifttt.com/recipes/283707-spotify-alarm-clock)
In your mail client:

Create a rule in your mail client with the following properties
- Message content contains #wakeup
- Actions: Delete Message, Run AppleScript

Create an AppleScript with the following statements.
```
tell application "Spotify" to activate
tell application "Spotify" to playpause
```

Voila!

I have Gmail, do you know how to setup the filter to do this? Thanks. Been looking for a way to do this.

You can't with gmail, you have to use the mail application is mac os.

Just to clarify,
-open up mail in mac os
-in the menu in the top of your screen hit "mail" and then "preferences"
-go to the "rules" tab
-make a new rule and put your applescript in the rule by clicking on "no scripts found" and then "open in finder" then just drag & drop your script in that folder that should be named "com.apple.mail" and you are done!

• (the finished product should look like this btw)
  

Is it possible to set this up on iPhone using the mail app?

I am having a problem with the AppleScript. Spotify opens and the playpause action is being done by the script before the entire Spotify application loads therefore the song doesn't play. How do i get the Applescript to wait a couple seconds before toggling the play/pause button? [edit: nvm found the delay function and set it to 1 between the activate and play functions, fixed]

how do i create the apple script part?

@justiceg use Script Editor and paste the following:

tell application "Spotify" to activate
delay 5
tell application "Spotify" to playpause

Hi all

Thanks a lot for the awesome app.
I want to set this up using iPhone. Do you know if I can setup using iPhone rather than Mac?

Hi all,

Same question as Michelle; but also, how do you set the time? You send an email to yourself containing #wakeup and add a time or..?

Hello!! Any luck with this in iPhone?
