Frequently asked questions
Everything about sending yourself and your team native push notifications with Hook.Notifier.
Yes. You can send yourself notifications for free. Create an account, get your URL, and call it from anything that can make an HTTP request.
No. Building push infrastructure means Firebase, Apple certificates, a server for device tokens, and an app to receive them. Hook.Notifier gives you the app and the inbox, so you skip all of it and just call a URL.
Anything that can send an HTTP request: a shell script, a cron job, a webhook from Stripe, GitHub or Supabase, a Zapier or Make automation, or a few lines of code in any language.
All three send a push from an API call. Pushover is paid. ntfy is free but you host it yourself. Hook.Notifier is free and hosted, with the same power features: priorities, action buttons, scheduled sends, markdown. And it adds a real inbox: read state, full-text search, colored tag folders and team sharing.
Yes. Send priority=low for silent logs that only land in your inbox, normal for a regular push, high or critical for alerts. Combined with quiet hours in your account, low and normal wait for the morning while high and critical always come through.
Yes. Create a named hook for the source and set a payload mapping template. Point the raw Stripe or GitHub webhook at that hook URL and the JSON becomes a human notification, without Zapier or any middleman.
Both. The send returns an id, and a PUT on the same URL with that id updates the notification in place, on your phone too: perfect for progress counters. Add delay=10m or at= with a date to schedule a send up to three days ahead.
Yes, with outgoing webhooks. Each received notification is POSTed to the URLs you configure, optionally filtered by tags. Your notifications come in from anywhere and can flow out to anywhere.
Yes. Your notifications land in the web inbox in any browser, and on your phone through the mobile app. They stay there so you can come back to them.
Yes. You can invite people to your team, and notifications can be sent to everyone at once. Useful for a shop floor, an on-call rotation, or a small company.
They stay in your inbox. You can tag them, filter them, search them, and mute categories you do not care about. It is an inbox, not just a delivery pipe.
