    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.

    Feature Request: Apply Different Notification Sounds for Different Apps

    Andre · 2 · Last reply by daniel

    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:

    I have tried adding the following:

    and also:

    but none of the above worked. I have tried slight variations of the above with no joy,

    If anyone has any

    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,

    Guenni

    New 3rd party library for NodeJS

    Daniel Cañada · 0 · Posted

    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

    or installing it directly with npm: npm install --save pushover-js

    Not compatible with Honor Note 10 device (RVL-AL09), Android 9

    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.

    An option to disable pop-up banners for notifications would be great.

    Rattywatch · 0 · Posted

    Pop-up banners are not always desirable.

    It would be great if there was an option within app settings to disable it.

    Pushover on Grandstream GXV3380 Desk Phone (With Google Play Services)

    Mark Tudor · 1 · Last reply by Mark Tudor

    Hi Team,

    I recently treated myself to a Grandstream GXV3380 Desk Phone.  This phone runs Android 7.1.1 and Google Play Services.  It would be amazing if I could install Pushover on it to allow notifications to be sent to it, but it does not show up in the Play Store.

    Is this something that could be fixed by adding this device as supported or something similar?

    Thanks,

    Mark.

    Can I send multiple URLs in the same message?

    kvar · 1 · Last reply by Pushover Support

    I'm trying to send a single notification with multiple links. I'm setting up a script that's linking to multiple items, and I would like the items to populate in the same message, rather than sending individual notifications per item (would be 4-20 messages per set).

    Can you add the option to receive a copy of a notification at an email address?

    Matt · 0 · Posted

    When I am at work, I cannot have my personal cell phone but I do have access to email.  I can't use desktop mode because my browser is locked in private mode by security policy. 

    I issue notifications from a microcontroller using the API. My current work around is to use another method to send an email notification after the Pushover notification. It would be ideal if I could send a push notification and an email notification using the API.

    Can you add an option to specify an alert sound by parsing the url_title parameter? You already detect "Reply to @someuser". Perhaps "Alert @bike Rest of actual title", and you remove the alert @sound part.

    JayGuerette · 0 · Posted

    I think the subject covers it. For things that have only minimal support for sending notifications, it would give you extra options.

    Auto re-download of images

    Oscar · 1 · Last reply by Pushover Support

    After my Android device has been off overnight notifications arrive but the attached images don't automatically download, each notification needs to be entered and the image clicked on to re-download it. This should happen automatically.

    I have followed the instructions here: https://support.pushover.net/i23-apple-watch-notifications-showing-with-a-full-screen-icon

    And I am still getting a brief readable notification followed by a fullscreen view of the custom icon I've made for the service that displaces the readable notification.

    Duración del sonido de notificación

    Me gustría que se pudiese configurar la duración del sonido de la notificación para que fuera más largo, en mi opinión es demasiado breve.
