  • Using Flic to trigger notification on phone
    Yes, I use Pushover ( https://pushover.net/ ) for this. It’s a $5 one-time purchase, which is an insanely good deal imo. You can set it up as a “critical” alert (I am on iOS) which punches through do-not-disturb settings or sleep. - Source: Reddit / 12 days ago
  • Selfhosted lost item finder - does it exist or should I start a project?
    If you'd like alerts pushed to your devices, it should be possible to get it to work with Pushover . It's a (one time) paid app, but I've found it was worth it, and use it for a number of different things. - Source: Reddit / 19 days ago
  • Looking for a discord replacement for homelab notifications/bots
    Would this help? I use it with things like NodeRed, UptimeKuma, etc for notifications when things go down, SmartHome notifications, etc. Another alternative is PushOver. - Source: Reddit / 24 days ago
  • HomeBridge "hidden gems" plugin that expand functionality?
    It utilises pushover.net with Pushcut integration supposedly incoming. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • I made an app that delivers a custom notification to any Apple device via http link
    I appreciate the effort, I think I will try it, but I would like to point you to https://pushover.net/ . I have been using it for many years and it works fine on the free plan. Their API is quite simple, there are client libraries for many languages and it is quite easy to create a tool to send notifications :). - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • generating a notification on the GW4 from the command line
    Has anybody ever tried to get pushover (https://pushover.net/) or something like that to work on wear os? - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Alerts from zabbix or grafana?
    It’s called pushover. https://pushover.net/ We have an email address that forwards to the email in pushover that generates the alert in the app. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Notifying Subscribers when an Amazon IVS Stream Is Online
    This function will be how we send notifications to subscribers when the stream goes live. In your application, you can utilize whatever method works best to send the notification. If you have a mobile app or PWA, you might want to send a push notification. Maybe your subscribers prefer email notifications? Or maybe you want to post a message to a social media feed or Discord/Slack channel. Perhaps you want to use... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
  • Monitoring Linux server
    For receiving alerts and notifications, I highly recommend Pushover, which is free for up to 10000 notifications per month. The mobile phone app is a one-time cost of around $5 USD and is well worth it. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • [HELP] Camera Trap Project with Raspberry Pi
    Can be done - cameras are now available for the Pi day and night vision with very very good resolution, detection can be done with a simple PIR sensor through to complex laser traps and sending to shoes / web sites easy. I use Pushover for lots of notifications but others are free. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Need help getting an SSL cert for my own domain
    Once you have set it up correctly no additional changes are required. I would suggest using https://ntfy.sh/ or https://pushover.net/ so that anytime it renews and updates or fails it will send push notification to your phone. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • macOS Ventura
    Since updating to macOS Ventura I have been unable to receive notifications via the Safari/Desktop app. I've deleted my desktop device, created a new device and logged in via pushover.net. Is this a known issue? If not, any suggestions on troubleshooting? - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • App that makes me share something from iOS and remind me about it when I turn on my MacBook?
    Update: I found https://pushover.net/ it is very similar to pushbullet and costs just 5$ per platform one-time-payment. I get kinda recent updates (iPad App 6 months ago). If you got a Silicon Mac you can run the iPad App on it, so only one purchase. I has some integrations with 3rd party services such as IFTTT, home assistant, and so on. The only thing I am missing is RSS, but I bet this is possible through IFTTT. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Ask HN: What are your “scratch own itch” projects?
    My latest version uses a Telegram bot but a better solution would probably be to use Pushover or the newly released Ntfy.sh https://pushover.net/ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33517944. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
  • Setup Linux server to send email
    I highly recommend the Pushover notification service. Personally, I hate receiving alerts/notifications over either email or text. They are slow and easy to lose track of. - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
  • Ntfy.sh – Send push notifications to your phone via PUT/POST
    Cool project. Another one I’ve used for this purpose is pushover. It’s a $5 lifetime fee. It’s worked well for me so far. https://pushover.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
  • Ntfy.sh – Send push notifications to your phone via PUT/POST
    Https://pushover.net/ Has existed for several years. It works great for me. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
  • Alternative to Uptime Robot?? 403 error
    I use Hyperspin with Pushover. Anything that relays to Pushover or any other uninterruptible app is great for those moments you absolutely need to address a 3 AM outage. - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
  • What do you use for email configuration?
    I've switched from using emails to Pushover instead. If the service only support emails then for the outbound SMTP server I use the free SMTP relay from my ISP and send it to a custom email address created in Pushover so in the end everything is delivered in Pushover. - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
  • Missing Notifications!
    I'm currently exploring Pushover for this, but any feedback on other alternatives are very welcome! - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
  • Is there an mobile app that periodatically checks if my server is reachable?
    For the notification app on your phone, however, I highly recommend Pushover (https://pushover.net/). The app is a one-time $5 USD and the service is free for up to 10,000 notifications per month. - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
