Hey gang, recently rebuilt my home server using docker and portainer and I’ve been having a blast curating the different things on it. Homehub has the spouse absolutely stoked and she asked if I could get it to send notifications. I honestly have no Idea so I thought I’d ask here.

Is there a reliable way to send notifications from a home server to smart phones? I’m already set up for remote access, but I’m still new enough that I don’t even know how to look for that.

    Notifications for what? Through what channel? I have email alerts for updates and disk errors, but I’m guessing your spouse doesn’t want those.

      Ideally for things like upcoming calendar events or notes on Homehub, maybe spec updates or added media, though jellyfin already gives us updates on that. Really just a reliable software that will send us a text or notification popup on our phones that I can connect other software to.
