This app works great for notifications to my iPhone but my associated Apple Watch notifications are often delayed and/or unreliable. I have my home automation system pushing these notifications and my phone gets every one of them and almost instantly. The Watch only gets some of them and often delayed. I use many other apps with watch notifications without issue so it is not a communication or settings problem. I can have my automation hub send the exact same notifications to pushover and it’s own app and my iPhone will get both notifications at the same second. My watch gets the automation app notifications also at the same second, the pushover notification comes sometimes at the same time, sometimes a few seconds later and sometimes never. This app is literally the only one that I have the problem with. I have reinstalled both the phone and watch app and tried all combinations of Bluetooth, WiFi and Cellular connections with the watch and the phone ... nothing fixes this issue.
I give up. I’m clueless as to how to set this up and I’m not stupid, I have a 3.7 GPA. All I want to do is receive a push message and it looks like I’m not going to be able to. I’ve been reading the instructions for over an hour and I’m not any closer than I was when I first started.
What a pleasure to come across something, anything, that just does what it claims. Just what I needed without the feature bloat. Dunno about other platforms but on IOS 12, NO hiccups.
We use this app at my work to let us know about offline servers when we are on call. I dread hearing the sound of an offline server alert, but it helps me restore outages in a timely manner. The sound is annoying, but it gets my attention even from a dead sleep.
This app is the perfect tool I was looking for to push notifications from my own home web server. I’m now able to receive notifications on my iOS devices rather than emailing. Thanks!
Since updating to IOS 13 all my push notifications come in about 30 seconds late.
Images in notifications aren’t loading due to some misconfiguration of Pushover DNS servers.
