BellAlert
Every bell, every phone — your own sound.
Your home's bells, as smart notifications
BellAlert is the companion iPhone app for a self-hosted home bell system. Subscribe to any bell by name, and when it rings, every subscribed phone is notified within a second or two — each phone playing the sound it chose.
- A different sound per bell, per phone
- Vibrate-only or mute, per bell
- Ring history — the last 10 rings with timestamps
- An "oops" that crosses out a canceled ring on every phone
- Disappearing notifications that tidy up after themselves
BellAlert is bring-your-own-server: a small publisher script on your
own machine sends one message per ring through Firebase Cloud
Messaging. No accounts, no tracking — see the
privacy policy.
