About this app

Have you ever wished you could allow a notification from a specific app act as an alarm and bypass silent mode and do not disturb (DND)? Now you can.

Alertify allows you the choose any app on your device, and turn it's notifications into alerts. Users can also setup conditions around these alerts, like an alert time window (one or more), and key words (one or more) being present in the content of a notification.

Alertify uses the same system permissions as you alarm clock does, so you will not miss an alert notification, even with your device on silent or DND mode.

The original use case was for home security. I wanted to be woken up if any of my Ring camera's detected a person during the night. For this I needed a specific time window for when the alarm should trigger and to be able to detect the keyword "person" in the notification to avoid simple motion detection. When these features where implemented it was clear that this could have many other applications.

Ratings and reviews

Absolutely perfect. Using this with Wyze to make sure I get sound alerts for when a person is detected by my pool. It's a defcon type alert that ignores any phone silencing, so you can't miss it now. Plus, filter it based on alert text. In the case of Wyze, I filter for "person" detected. Thank you Dev for an awesome simplistic app.

Just downloaded it and gave it a try: worked exactly the way I wanted, and with the with the simplest of UIs. The app overrides both vibrate and do not disturb mode to yell out at full volume :"ALERT FROM WHATSAPP; KEYWORD FIRE ALARM" and then blasts out a default alarm tone for as long as I set it up to. It would be neat, for an update, to get a custom notification tone, but will keep using it hoping I never miss a fire alarm anymore.

I've been using Alertify for a while now, and it's honestly one of the best apps in its category! The interface is clean and easy to navigate, making it super user-friendly. The performance is smooth, with no lag or crashes. Highly recommend this app to anyone looking for an app able to send alerts when your phone is in silent or only in vibration mode . Keep up the great work!
