## Reviews

### "Great app\! Can be used as an alarm system." — 4.0/5

> **Esra** | *March 8, 2018* | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I am using this app as an alarm system for 2-3 years. When something goes wrong in our SaaS infrastructure I get a notification from the app. I act fast and fix the problem asap. I have chosen a very loud and disturbing melody so even if I'm asleep I wake up or I can recognize the sound and know something is wrong.
> 
> **Cons**: Pushover is exactly the same when I purchased it years ago. It should be updated regularly. It would be good to have some other nice features as well.
> 
> I strongly recommend this app for simple alarm notifications. It has various melodies so you can distinguish from other app notification sounds. It is also very easy to use.

### "Best Push Notification Service for iOS" — 5.0/5

> **Jesus** | *April 6, 2021* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the flexibility of this service. I bought the iOS app one-time for $5 and I've been able to send push notifications to my phone for website uptime using Hetrix and other services.
> 
> **Cons**: It would be nice if they had some type of "curl generator" or API JSON generator to make it easier to assemble the API calls needed. Other than that, if you know bit about APIs, it's easy to do yourself.
> 
> I needed push notifications about website downtime with Hetrix (free uptime monitoring) and they supported this app. I eventually also used it to get notifications about web-page changes in conjunction with the Firefox extension PageProbe which helped immensely for instant updates about page changes such as "in stock" alerts for hard-to-find products during the pandemic.

### "Great price for few features" — 2.0/5

> **Marcos** | *January 16, 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The thing I like the most it's the simplicity of it. It only has one or two features to allow you to send notifications, also the price per message it's pretty low so if you really don't have tons of notifications it's pretty good.
> 
> **Cons**: The lack of features and facilities. A lot of tools different than Pushover offers tons of features that Pushover lacks. They are not an incident management tool, they are just a notification service so you will have to manage your own schedules, escalation policies, etc. Also it's horrible that you have to purchase the Android App aside from the cost per message itself, they only want you to spend a few bucks on the app that works poorly. Also the website works poorly sending alerts with delay.

### "Set and forget push notifications" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *September 13, 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Pushover integration is very simple for the other software that I use and allows notifications to be easily pushed to my devices.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing. It worked first time and has continued to work daily for the last couple of years. Adding integrations is simple.
> 
> A lot of software has pre-built pushover integration which makes it super simple to implement.

### "Get a notification about literally anything, to all your devices" — 5.0/5

> **Aivar** | *September 6, 2021* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Reliable and quick notification delivery&#10;I can install it on any of my devices&#10;Highly customizable&#10;After a single payment (per device), I can use it as much as I reasonably would ever want to, forever
> 
> **Cons**: Web UI is not very convenient, and looking through notification history can be a little difficult. But that's a minor nitpick.
> 
> I can get notified about anything I want to by programming it to run on a server and sending it to a Pushover API. Great for being notified about technical emergencies, setting up nudges for my custom productivity systems, you name it\!
