Do I have to buy the app for iOS or Android

Yes, this plugin requires that you buy the application from the Google Play or Apple App store to connect with the Pushover.net account.

Why do I have to register an Application with Pushover?

I have been in contact with the Pushover Team and we agreed that in order to maintain a system that allows more managability and customization for you, the end user, each site should register their own application. This will allow you to set your own icon and not be limited by the monthly limitations of the API that are currently set, amongst other things.

Erro hmm

Bj?rn Nielsen July 19, 2024

Unfortunately, I can only give them one star – I really don’t want to give them any at all, but yes. You can’t access their website, you can’t get in touch with them, it doesn’t work, etc. … I hope someone can figure it out, hmm.

Very useful, still going strong!

Really handy plugin for Pushover users, I’ve been using it for years and it’s never missed a beat.

PHP Fatal Errors, Limited Functions

sadhaka August 28, 2021

Various parts of the interface (e.g., the sysinfo tab) cause fatal errors on PHP 7. Plus, there’s not much functionality here that can’t be done better by hand.

Pushover API

Bonjour, merci beaucoup pour cet article. Pour avoir testé Pushover pour améliorer la communication au sein d’une entreprise, c’est vrai que ?a marche plut?t bien et les co?ts sont plut?t faible par rapport au développement d’une appli d’entreprise typique. Tout dépend les oblectifs ensuite, bien évidemment. Pour compléter l’article, un de mes collègues a fait un exemple d’implémentation de l’API Pushover en C#. Si jamais ?a vous chauffe : https://www.softfluent.fr/blog/expertise/2017/01/26/Pushover-API

why is this plugin here?
