Send notification to iPhone

Post by timi2fly » Sat Sep 10, 2016 4:33 am

I am wondering if anyone has any ideas on using MacroScheduler to send push notifications to an iPhone.

I realise that it can be done via email, and there are threads on doing this with android / windows phones, however I am interested in iPhones. I can see that Prowl/Growl might potentially be useful but have not tried integrating it with MacroScheduler.

Has anyone done this previously or have any bright ideas before I head down the Prowl/Growl route?

Cheers. Tim.

Perhaps look at a third party service like pushover.net and/or zapier:
https://zapier.com/zapbook/iphone/pushover/

Then you could set up a webhook and have Macro Scheduler do a simple HTTPRequest.
