Pushover

Simple Notifications for Android, iPhone, iPad, and Desktop

Visit Pushover

Pushover is a push notification service that delivers real-time alerts to Android, iOS, and desktop devices, including Android Wear and Apple Watch. It solves the problem of getting notifications from apps, scripts, services, and websites onto the devices you use, using a User Key or Pushover email address to route messages.

The service offers an HTTP API for sending notifications from web apps, network monitors, shell scripts, and other tools, with examples provided in several programming languages. An email gateway converts messages sent to an individual @pomail.net address into notifications. Integrations include IFTTT, Zapier, and a range of third-party applications and plugins for monitoring, home automation, media tools, and more.

Pushover is aimed at individuals, developers, system administrators, and organizations. Individuals can use it with a one-time purchase per platform after a 30-day free trial, with no subscription. Pushover for Teams is a monthly, per-user service with centralized management, priority message queuing, and priority support, covering all supported platforms. All users can send up to 10,000 messages per month, with the option to upgrade sending capacity.
