Any issues with SMS today?

OK, so as I was implementing the 7 day trial of PushOver, SMS started working :slight_smile:

It took me about 15 mins to get it all setup and tested, then I migrated about 10 different Rules and such to use PushOver, now it's testing time over the next 6 days.

Guess it's time to go to Starbucks and get that $6.00 fufu latte, oh wait, how about drink our house brew, buy PushOver and save $1.00 :wink:

I just finished converting over too. Really easy, was able to do the whole thing on my phone before getting out of bed! Enjoy the :coffee:

I just got spammed with texts today, so it looks like it might be working. I turned it back off. Haha! i use pushbullit and it works fine for me. And it's FREE .. go get that fufu coffee instead. @toy4rick

$ 4.99 a lifetime is (in a world of $40 switches) the same as free. :smiley:

I had to replace most of the outlets in this house.. I have no idea what the previous did to get them so loose. In most, a vacuum cleaner plug would fall out in 5 mins. For two, the plug would fall out instantly... unusable. I could have replaced them with $0.99 from Home Depot (10 pack for $9.99)

Instead, I put Leviton or Honeywell, or even GE for about $44 each.

Lights are worse because they are usually energized by motion or contact.. so yet another $30-$60.

It took just about 4 messages from Pushover for me to slap my 5 bucks down, my "trial" didn't last a full hour. :slight_smile: The Once-Only element certainly sealed the deal. :slight_smile:

That's why I went with pushbullit instead. I'm fine with notifications instead of texts. Also I can see that my husband received the notifications as well. One pushbullit account covered us all. It's all about what works for you, though. No way is the wrong way here.

100% agree with that!! :smiley:

While Pushover is quite popular, natively supported, and more versatile (supports "levels" that can, for example, override "do not disturb" on iOS devices for specific notifications, among other things), my needs are more simple, and I also have an existing Samsung account for SmartThings (the platform I previously used). In my case, the Hubitat driver and ST SmartApp from here is working well for me: Route Hubitat Notifications to SmartThings (App and Driver)

Plus, it's free! :slight_smile: (If you already have an ST login. You don't technically even need the hub for this since it's all cloud-based.) That being said, if I ever want to use notifications more, I'll probably spring for Pushover...
