    can support for <br> be added?

    Pushover · 2 · Last reply by Pushover Support

    I'd love to add line breaks. I mostly use curl, which doesn't seem to process the \n command well. So in my old notification tool, I used <br>, which was supported.

    I know there is an HTML argument that needs to made, but it doesn't seem to support <br>

    Remove Google Play Protect requirement

    Alexander Gieg · 1 · Last reply by Pushover Support

    Google Play Protect is optional, Pushover doesn't need it, your company/developer/whoever explicitly included code checks for it so as to forcibly deny it from being installed in rooted devices such as mine.

    Please remove this requirement. I paid for the app, have been using it for years, and definitely WANT my device rooted, because it's MY device, and *I* choose what *I* have access to and what *I* want do with it, up to and including backing up of everything at the system level.

    Now, what you can do that isn't as anti-user as enabling Google Play Protect, is to

    Create A Forwarder for Browser Notifications

    Pushover · 1 · Last reply by Pushover Support

    I use a website that supports browser notifications but doesn’t have an iOS app. If I could somehow register my notifications with that website to your service and then receive them through Pushover…that would be so awesome! 

    the website I’m interested in is boardgamearena.com but I imagine there’s a slew of websites for which people would pay to enable notifications on their Apple device.

    letters ä ö and ü.

    Hi there, in Germany and some other countries, we use the letters ä ö and ü. Could you add this functionality? At the moment I get an error message when I want to send a string with one of these letters. Thanks a lot!

    Android Share image

    Mail · 2 · Last reply by Pushover Support

    If you receive a notification containing an image on Android, die image is displayed and you can click on it to show it larger (with zoom option), but there is no way to save/share this image to other apps.

    Would be nice if this was added (as it's also available on iOS).

    Actionable notifications

    Derek O'Harrow · 1 · Last reply by Pushover Support

    It would be great if Pushover could have "actionable" notifications - i.e. notifications with a number of actions that can be chosen in response, each of which can do something - such as call a URL, run a shortcut, etc.

    This way, it would greatly increase the usability of Pushover from just a notification system to a system that can enable two-way interaction with the calling service.

    This would be similar to the Actionable Notifications provided by the Home Assistant Companion App.

    As an example, you might receive a push notification saying that something has happened, like movement detected. The

    Preview sounds

    Bill Marriott Tech · 0 · Posted

    In your API at https://pushover.net/api#sounds

    you sensibly have a play(preview) link next to each sound since nobody wants to add a sound without hearing it first.

    The same principal applies to end users!  But the API only allows me to get a list  with no way to preview.

    Consider exposing your sounds so I can preview from my app just like you do in the API doc.

    a)Easiest would be to expose the mp3's on your site so I can preview sound 'pushover' by playing https://pushover.net/sounds/pushover.mp3   ( or similar)

    b) Or,  If you are worried about abuse then add another Sound API

    Presence of Gmail "shortcut" suppresses Chrome browser notifications on MacOS

    Bruce Walker · 0 · Posted

    I was unable to get desktop Chrome browser notifications to work at all -- even after deleting the devices, cookies, preferences, you name it -- until I removed the Gmail browser-application/shortcut from Chrome. I was also forced to reset to defaults in the Preferences / Advanced settings.

    It seems that somehow the presence of the second instance of Chrome completely confuses Apple's Notification center. It's all good to go now.

    Please allow different app using different notification sound. For example: if app website crash, app payment received and app IFTTT could use 3 different notification sounds, that would be super useful.

    Using Pushover with Arduino/ESP8266

    Marco · 1 · Last reply by Andre

    I have been using Pushover successfully for my Arduino/ESP8266 devices for a while now and I'm very happy with the result so far (I'm including my code below for others who might find it useful). However, I never managed to add Priority and URL to my messages. Am I doing anything wrong or is it just not possible (and so i will stop trying! :)

    My Arduino function is the following:

    Push audio message

    Guenter Ms · 0 · Posted

    Hello,

    is it possible to push an audio message?

    This is helpful for handicaped persons or wakeup calls with individual messages. The best implementation would be to simply add an parameter flag like "audio=yes", which will lead your server to call a TTS (text2speech) function (google,amazon,...) to generate a mp3 file from the text message and transmit as attachment (small sizes only).

    How do you think about that?

    Best regards,

    New 3rd party library for NodeJS

    Hello, I have developed a new library for NodeJS that allows you to send notifications through Pushover customizing each parameter in a simple and semantic way.

    It is written in typescript and you have it available at https://github.com/danitetus/pushover-js

    Spamit Not · 0 · Posted

    Hi.

    It seems that Pushover is not compatible with Honor Note 10 device (model code: RVL-AL09), w/ Android 9 and full Google Play Services installed.

    Google Play shows that it isn't possible to install it on this device... and it is the only app that ever refised to install on my device. 

    Any advice on what is the requirement that isn't met by this configuration?

    I am integrating Pushover as a notification mechanism to my site. What URL should I point users to if they want to get Pushover?

    Christian · 1 · Last reply by Pushover Support

    Is there a standard "What is Pushover" URL I can link my users to? I am thinking that it would be opened in a new browser tab and they can get started on the process of getting a license.
