Prowl: Easy Push Notifications

Growl is quickly becoming obsolete. Apps are quietly dumping it. I only have a single app that still uses it via a plugin. I’m just glad the server is still working at least. But in every other way this is abandonware.

I've been using Prowl for years. Very stable, easy to use. No brainer download if you want to receive any push notifications you want on your iPhone.

Needed a simple way to send notifications to my phone from my Arduino. With Prowl, I had it working in less than 5 minutes. Well worth a few bucks!

When opening first time to view an alert, the new alert is superimposed on the previous one (graphical draw issue). Closing and reopening fixes. If that's fixed, great app.

10 years(!!!!!!!) since the last update and Prowl is still dependable! My only wishlist item would be customizable icons honestly, none of Prowl’s other UI holdovers from yesteryear bother me at all. Reassuring to know this app will never have “Liquid Glass”. But choice of icons would be a great add!

Love this capability... wrote a Python script to push notifications from Raspberry pi projects to my phone, works great.

I use this to receive alerts from my home automation system(isy994i) and from a myriad of scripts running on servers I administer. I even have a couple of IoT projects that use it(Arduino, ESP8266). Easy to setup and use. (Dead. Simple. API.)

I use prowl to notify me about local air quality in realtime. It’s great!<br/><br/>Apple ought to allow custom sounds for third party app notification. Would be perfect to have arbitrary number of types and user custom sound based on message contents. This change would allow very versatile notifications like voice announcing data inside message etc.<br/><br/>Can select 5 different sounds from a preset list of 6. Defaults are solid, but would greatly benefit from even purchased ringtones being available.
