ntfy (pronounced "notify") is a simple HTTP-based pub-sub notification service that lets you send push notifications to your phone or desktop via PUT/POST requests. No signup required, no app coupling — just send a curl request and receive instant notifications. Supports Android, iOS, and web clients. Features include message priorities, tags, scheduled delivery, attachments, and end-to-end encryption. Self-hostable with Docker or available as a free public service at ntfy.sh.
