New Alert Contact Type – Pushover (Push For Android, iOS, Chrome, Firefox, Safari & Mac OS X Desktop).

Written by Tomas Koprusak 125 words | 1 min read Updated Nov 13, 2025

Many Uptime Robot users were asking for an integration with the “push notifications service” Pushover and here it is.

Pushover is a paid app which has support for notifications through Android, iOS, Chrome, Firefox, Safari & Mac OS X Desktop. It has very nice features like defining “quiet hours, delivery groups” and more.

Pushover

The addition is very simple just like any other alert contact:

go to My Settings page
click the “Add Alert Contact>Pushover button”
enter the Pushover User Key (that can be found in Pushover’s website or apps once logged in)
attach this new alert contact to the monitors of your choice through the “Edit Monitor” dialogs.
That’s all.

P.S. Pushover’s supported clients and their download links can be found here.

Is that a high-priority notification?

admin Sep 16, 2014 at 3:36 pm

No, they are all "normal (0)" priority. Do you need customization of the priority through Uptime Robot (asking for feedback)?

David F Sep 18, 2014 at 3:36 pm

Priority selectection gets a +1 from me.
I purchased Pushover in preference to the others because of this feature alone, so it would be nice to have the option...

It would be a welcome addition for me too, if it could be added without too much work.

I would also like to see this added (configuration of priority for pushover notifications).

Jan-Petter Mar 8, 2015 at 3:36 pm

Hi, is there any updates? Is this a feature that is planned implemented in near future? I am using the Pro-plan.

Umut Muhaddisoglu Apr 6, 2015 at 3:36 pm

Just added the "priority" setting and it can be found in the "edit alert contact dialog".

Paul Sep 16, 2014 at 8:13 pm

Great work guys, and thank you for listening.

Thanks very much for the help regarding the integration.

Gary Williams Sep 17, 2014 at 7:48 pm

Don't you mean "quiet hours" rather than "quite hours"?

Gavin Sep 24, 2014 at 12:38 am

Why would anyone choose to use this over PushBullet, which is completely free? Am I missing something?

Hossein Moradgholi Oct 5, 2014 at 12:38 am

agree, +1.

Khoi Nguyen Feb 26, 2015 at 12:38 am

Totally agree. While Pushover asked for money to upgrade, Pushbullet exists free.

Julien Oct 20, 2014 at 9:43 am

Great work !

PS : we need customization of the priority through Uptime Robot

Any chance of having this for windows phones as well?

admin Jan 16, 2015 at 9:27 am

If a popular platform/service exists (like Pushover) for Windows phone users, we'd love to add.

Mike Aug 4, 2015 at 8:43 pm

Any chance of supporting the Pushover API so that UptimeRobot can use an API token rather than just the user key? This would allow me to set a different sound for the UR notifications.
