johoja Wrote:Hey Guys,

I've been thinking of adding a new feature to NP; not sure how many of you use Prowl or, receive push notifications on your phone. But I was thinking of a way to leverage apps that already push notifications to your phone. For example: if you receive a push notification that is something along the lines of commandprefixms:johoja:what's up buddy, it'll send a SMS to johoja, or if you send a commandprefix:ring your phone will start to ring (regardless of silent mode or not)

commandprefix would be user definable, and would be what I would look for in a Push Notification (you could send a prowl msg to yourself send a facebook message to you, or tweet yourself or something along those lines just to get that push notification working ( which works over 3g/wifi which is good )) (This could also be extended to emails i.e) i would probably look at the subject of the email address but emails aren't very reliable I think sometimes not everyone has push for emails so could be a delay etc.))

What do you guys think? Worth doing ? Anyone interested ? Haven't added something interesting in NP for a while.

Any suggestions? If i see some interest for this ill start adding it. I have some bug fixes that I've already done, and support for notifo.com that is in the beta repo, but not in main, want to roll some more features into a 1.6 release.

stoli Wrote:Vibrate/Silent - not sure how exactly it could be tied in (script?) but when a movie/show starts it could turn off the ringer.

All of the other NotifyPro features have been about sending notifications from the phone to other apps, what about adjusting actual notifications on the phone itself? This goes back to a conversation we had when you first released this, but what about phone settings tied to GPS locations and/or time of day?

While this is out of the realm of what you have been doing, I think it certainly fits with the whole "notify" idea of the app.

Just my 2 cents. :-)

There are a couple little things that bug me though. I haev no idea if its something you can fix or if its just part of growl. When you click to reply on the sms. Everytime it opens up a seperate IE tab and thats really annoying. Is it possible to make it at the very least stick to one browser/tab and not just whatever one is in focus. And even better, have somekind of threading, because at this point I actually dont even know when the message was sent or not and whther I can close the tab yet or not. Thanks!

Also, maybe you can recommend a different interface then growl, that could fix this. I see you have many on there but dont know about any of them. I have windows 7.

johoja Wrote:Yeah, I know what your saying I'm an android guy now ( don't even own an iPhone anymore). So I use tasker/locale all the time. But an app like that would require a lot of gui work unfortunately I'm not very good at that, plus would take a lot of my time. hehe

kyle0k Wrote:ok, so there has been a huge glitch thats really been bothering me last 2 days. Everytime I recieve a phonecall the phone just resprings to safemode! At first I didnt know exactly what was going on, and now I figured out thats when it happens, and its from the notify pro. And I dont even have it so that it alerts me of calls! I will send you my syslog and crash log through PM. So please get back to me!
