ntfy VS NPushOver

Slightly related, but I've also been working on and off for a few years on my own Type 1 Diabetes management solution (https://github.com/algao1/iv3).

I haven't had time to work on it recently, but it uses ntfy (https://ntfy.sh/) to send alerts and such.

I was thinking of eventually incorporating some kind of automatic remedial solution eventually to help keep my glucose in range, but haven't had any time to look into it yet.

If you go to the settings, there should be a notification category, which then contains another menu "App Notifications" where you can see all the apps that are allowed to receive notifications, but I don't know if this will stop google play services to receive these identifiers.

I use GrapheneOS, so I don't have any google play services running, but for the apps where I need notifications I use https://unifiedpush.org/ (only a few apps implement it) and I host my own https://ntfy.sh server.

Kind of similar, in the early days of COVID, I accidentally discovered that my state's website would have test results available several hours before they sent out the "view your results" email. So I made a script that would check the site every five or ten minutes and then ping me as soon as the result changed to something besides PENDING.

In the course of that I stumbled on https://ntfy.sh/ which solved the notification problem without needing Twitter, and I've used it since then to let me know when long-running scripts complete.

I connect any app that supports https://unifiedpush.org/ to a self hosted https://ntfy.sh instance for fully self hosted push notifications

changedetection.io just donated to the awesome crew over at ntfy.sh

For further monitoring & alerting about critical cpu temperatures (unlikely now) for example, I plan to use notify & something else. Haven't thought about this much yet though.

I've started tossing https://ntfy.sh/ alerts into my Deno apps to get push notifications for things I'm interested in

ntfy.sh

If it was for fun and to learn how, that's fair. But are you aware of https://ntfy.sh?

Never heard of or used push over but I’m assuming this is their site

The general ones that use email never seem to send anything. The ones that specifically use Gmail don't work anymore since Google apparently changed some security settings. And the one that uses Pushover didn't work AND wanted me to pay too much for their app.

Pushover.

check out pushover, I use it for this exact case

https://pushover.net/

I use Pushover for receiving alerts and notifications on my phone. I think the mobile app may cost a small amount like $5 USD, but the service is free for up to 10,000 notifications per month. I can't recommend Pushover enough. It is freaking awesome.

At a glance, with the /stock/products/{productid}/locations you can easily retrieve the amounts for different locations. It should be fairly simple to then filter it either directly in the query or in the script. Then you can either add it to the shopping list with /stock/shoppinglist/add-product or use something like pushover.net to send notification straight to your phone.

I used to use PushBullet but they stopped supporting iOS which is why I came to Now Push. I may use https://pushover.net/ instead, there doesn't seem to be a ton of alternatives.

All you need to to do is register your helium account number and Pushover account number (you can sign up here : https://pushover.net/) and install the pushover app on your phone.

Don't mean to shit on your idea but how does this compare to an app like Pushover for instance? (https://pushover.net/)
