Let us set custom app icons for notifications please
It would be cool, and it’s doable since some other apps let’s you do that

Vibration for high priority alerts only
It would be very helpful for me to be able to get vibrations on high priority alerts when in do not distrub mode. There is currently the option to treat high priority as an alarm but this can be very disruptive if I am in a meeting. I could switch on vibration for all alerts but I get many normal priority alerts. I need some way to respond to high priority alerts without the phone creating a loud noise

show title instead of first line message when notification is not extended
possibility to show only the title instead of the first line (or more) of the content when the notificaiton is not extended. In order to see the title completely

Support for deduplication keys
I'd love to see dedup key support added.
The idea being that if multiple souces send the same notification, only the first source to call the API with a configurable time window will trigger a notification because all source share the same deduplication key.
For example, when multiple redundant monitoring systems are the souces of an notification for the same event (like a host goes down), only the first source to report the event triggers a notification, and all subsequent sources sharing the same dedup key for that event will be dropped.

Increase attachment size.
I love using Pushover with my Reolink cameras but with a max of 2.5mb attachment size, I can't use the app with my Duo 2. The Duo 2 is basically two cameras in one so the file size is around 5mb. Not sure if the actual image size is an issue or not, but just incase, mine are 4096x1536.
I have seen other people on reddit have the same issue with the newer 12mp cameras too so I am sure they would also like the change.

Please add a delete all stored notifications from an application.
Occasionally from a device I don't use often, when I open it, it tries to sync 10s of thousands of old messages even though message retention is only set to 250 on that device. The app crashes due to this high volume of syncing. The only fix is to uninstall the Pushover app completely on that device and reinstall. It would be nice to be able to purge all notifications from an application instead.

Per-project (application) default sound
Currently, on iOS (at least) you can only set the default sound for the whole Pushover app, but not the individual application channels within it. Eg. I have a few apps and would like each to have a default unique sound (from the default list). I know I can configure this in the code when sending the notification, but it would have been MUCH easier to do this directly in the mobile app.
I've been a user and a customer for many years and feel this pain with each new app I add :)

Add the ability to send push notifications on apps in local area network, when there isn’t access to internet
On iOS there is https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2020/10113/
On Android, others users MQTT protocol.
-
Implement End-to-end encryption
Currently, pushover stores messages in plaintext format, but it seems they are encrypted prior to being sent to apple/android pus services. This means that messages can be intercepted should pushover be breached, or where pushover staff act maliciously (to be clear, it’s the possibility that it could happen which is an issue, I am not saying pushover staff are untrustworthy).
I would like the ability to encrypt messages prior to sending them to pushover, that way the above scenarios would be solved provided the secret is not shared with pushover.

Increase the Character Limit.
I use Make.com and I am limited to 1024 characters. This means I am limited in the information I can send myself. Some URLs created, which I turn into easy link via HTML can take up a lof of those characters.
-
Attach an image via URL.
I use Pushover with Make.com so I cannot get a file path for an image. Only a URL. Being able to attach an image via URL will massively increase the ease of use for Pushover. At the moment I am looking at alternative services that allow notifications with Images via URLs
-
looping of sounds
I am trying to use Pushover to locate my Iphone if it is lost. I just learned about critical alerts, which allow me to play a sound on the iphone even if it is in vibrate, which is awesome. However, I would like to play a sound on loop until the phone is found. There appears to be an option to do this in pushover but there is a long delay between playing of a sound. Is there a way to just keep a sound going without delay between playing of the sound?

Actionable notifications
A similar request (same subject) was declined in past because of missing support in iOS, but it seems to be possible to implement in iOS now.
I came across other 2 competing apps that support this functionality also on iOS, I also tested that. It is possible to add multiple action buttons in notification with custom names. These actions may call URL or make a HTTP request (e.g. POST request). Unfortunately Pushover misses this functionality (probably only this one, I have no other reasons to go with competitors).
Would you check it please, it seems it is now possible to

Widget optimized for content
I receive many messages from my smart home and its annoying that valuable space ist wasted on top and left of the widget.
So I would really like to have two options:
1. Disabling the whole header
2. Disabling Pushover symbol in front of every message
Nevertheless Pushover is a great App that I used over years and many Android versions.

Play a sound from a URL
When creating a message through the API, can we specify a URL for the sound? eg. https://domain.com/media/sound1.mp3 Either this, or can we upload sounds to our account through the API? Use case examples: 1 • We then can use their own sound library 2 • We could then use a text to voice converter, save it as a mp3, then send the push notification. Resulting in reading the message out aloud. 3 • Clients could play whole songs as an alert using their own library 4.• Developers could dynamically merge a few short mp3 sounds into one mp3 before sending the message.

Multiple percent complications, not just one
I would love to have multiple different complications, not just these:
- title (100 characters) - a description of the data being shown, such as "Widgets Sold"
- text (100 characters) - the main line of data, used on most screens
- subtext (100 characters) - a second line of data
- count (integer, may be negative) - shown on smaller screens; useful for simple counts
- percent

Clear all button for notifications
My use-case is to clear all seen notifications. In order to make it more convenient, it makes sense to have a clear-all button in my opinion.
