### 4/5 — Delete multiple messages

*2026-03-21*

Great app, but please give the option to select multiple messages and delete.  Having to click delete and confirm on every message individually is a pain!  Should also have the ability to delete the message currently being viewed.

Thank you for the reply.  That’s not the same as selecting which messages to delete and then deleting multiple at once.  That is the feature that is missing. The filtering does not achieve this.

**Developer response:** Hi and thank you for the Feedback.

You can delete you’re message in a bulk, when you activate the filter and click the delete Button in the filter row.

### 5/5 — Very good app :)

*2024-11-07, version 1.4.1*

Works perfectly, you just need to install iGotify docker container in addition to Gotify server as described on GitHub application page. And please we need English description on App Store instead of the German. Good job 👍

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2024-10-30, version 1.4.1*

Works great practically out of the box. Well done!

### 3/5 — Latest update broke the app

*2024-10-14, version 1.4.1*

App keeps checking “Update app” and keeps prompting please update your igotify notification assistant to > 1.3.0.0

### 5/5 — Super Tool

*2024-10-11, version 1.4.1*

Danke für die Entwicklung

### 5/5 — Absolut empfehlenswert, ideal für HomeLab

*2024-09-14, version 1.4*

Endlich gotify Benachrichtigungen auf Apple Geräten. Nutze es für mein HomeLab in Proxmox und für Watchtower/Docker

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-09-09*

Will done on creating this app. I’ll been impressed with how well it works. I’m looking forward to more options to customize the views in the future (I’d love to see a few lines for each notification on the main page, so I don’t always have to click through to see the total notification) but it’s a great start!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your positive feedback! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the app. We appreciate your suggestion about adding more customization options. We're always looking to improve, and your input is invaluable. Stay tuned for future updates and have fun with version 1.4!

### 5/5 — How to have push notification

*2024-08-28, version 1.3.2*

Hello, 

I installed gotify and configured my server.

But when I have event on my server, my cellphone doesn’t send me a notification to tell me the event.

I should open the app to see.

Did I do something wrong btw ?

### 3/5 — All notification times and dates are time of app opening

*2024-05-17*

I was on your Git and couldn’t find the iGotify, but hoping you could look into the bug about all notifications having the same time as the time of the interface being opened.

**Developer response:** It must be fixed with version >1.3

### 5/5 — Working fine, great support

*2024-04-19, version 1.2.1*

Had some disconnection issues on the serverside. A fix was implemented in less than 12 hours. 
Responds to every support topic within 30min. 
And the app does what it is designed for. Can’t complain at all!

### 1/5 — Konfiguration?

*2025-11-14, version 1.5.4*

Leider unbrauchbar, da nicht klar ist, wie der Server zu konfigurieren ist. Die Hilfe ist nichtssagend und auf den Screenshots ist nichts zu erkennen. Egal was ich eintrage, ich erhalte immer „Kein iGotify API Server gefunden“

### 1/5 — App is still broken

*2025-01-24, version 1.4.2*

Don’t waste your time downloading - it won’t let you load in; keeps prompting it needs an update (despite being on the latest version).

### 1/5 — Not working anymore

*2025-01-15, version 1.4.2*

Not working. Asks me to update, but both backend and ios app are up to date.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-10-05, version 1.4*

Set up the details as requested (https connections fail unless you specify port 443 for some reason). Get to the screen showing “environment” and gets stuck with the loading animation on the top right. Latest iOS version and Gotify server. 

If you force quit the app, then launch it again you see all the notification topics as expected. 

Yet to see if notifications actually work. Will update the review.

UPDATE: No notifications actually get delivered unless you open the app or having it running in the foreground. Lowered rating until this is fixed.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-09-08, version 1.3.2*

Put in URL. Click continue and nothing happens

### 2/5 — No english

*2024-03-13, version 1.2.1*

Too bad it is not possible to change the language to English

### 3/5 — Funktioniert, aber ohne push notifications

*2025-11-11, version 1.5.4*

Hi, die App funktioniert zwar grundsätzlich und ich sehe die Nachrichten in der App, allerdings erhalten ich keine Push notifications. iOS 26.1

### 3/5 — Gut, aber…

*2025-11-07, version 1.5.4*

Die App ist an sich wirklich gut und tut, wozu sie da ist.
Doch jetzt kommt LEIDER das Aber.
Es gibt eine Sache die mich sehr stört:
Nach einer Weile bekomme ich keine Benachrichtigungen mehr und muss mich einmal ab- und wieder anmelden, damit ich diese wieder bekomme.
Die Ereignisse sind zwar in der App sichtbar, sie kommen also korrekt an, aber es wird keine Pushnachricht mehr verschickt.
Erst nach dem ich mich, wie erwähnt, erneut anmelde, bekomme ich diese wieder.

### 3/5 — Notifications in-app work, but aren’t sending to iOS’s lock screen etc

*2025-09-23*

Can’t figure out what the issue is. Everything is working as expected, but notifications aren’t showing up in banners or on the lock screen - only inside the app.

**Developer response:** Please contact me via GitHub or via mail igotify@sebastianrank.de that I can help you

### 3/5 — Push notify

*2025-08-06, version 1.4.2*

### 5/5 — It works!

*2026-01-26, version 1.5.5*

Thank you :)

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2026-01-12, version 1.5.5*

The app works great, it’s free so nothing to complain about. The server setup is a little tough but AI helps that. Thanks for the great service!

### 5/5 — Absolut empfehlenswert

*2025-10-11, version 1.5.3*

Ich benutze Gotify für alle Dienste die ich auf einem Proxmox cluster in Verbindung mit n8n betreibe.

Leider hat die App seit ios 26 wieder denn Bug mit doppelter Benachrichtigungen aber ich bin mir sicher das der Programmiert das in kürze fixen wird.

Alles in allem ist es eine gute Software und App die mit einem kleinen Kaffee an den Programmierer unterstützt werden sollte.

### 5/5 — Kleinere Bugs müssen noch weg

*2025-05-25, version 1.4.2*

Erstmal: Ich liebe Gotify/iGotify. Die Kombination funktioniert super. 

Kleinere Bugs sind aber in der mobilen App vorhanden. So passen die Zeitstempel nicht. Manchmal verschluckt sie sich, wenn man von http zu https wechselt. 

Alles kein Drama, aber wenn das noch gelöst wäre, wäre iGotify schlicht perfekt.

### 5/5 — Fast Perfekt

*2025-04-04, version 1.4.2*

Wäre genial, wenn ein „Swipe to delete Message“ (wie in Mail) möglich wäre.

### 5/5 — Works perfectly

*2025-02-16, version 1.4.2*

Once you’ve configured everything to set up the relevant connectivity, this app works incredibly well. It’s the only open source self-hosted notification system I’ve found to work reliably on iOS — and the developer is highly responsive and engaged.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2025-02-15*

Wish it was possible to have low priority notifications set to mute .

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2025-02-02*

Perfect, thanks for sharing!

### 5/5 — Working as expected

*2025-01-03*

At first I thought it wasn’t working, but then I followed all steps in the readme section and got it to work.

Don’t forget to install both Gotify and iGotify docker containers. If behind NPM, make sure to add the advanced configurations proposed in the readme section.

**Developer response:** Thank you for you’re positive feedback 😊

### 5/5 — Buy me a cold drink

*2024-11-18*

This button isn’t working for me… Maybe include a wallet address or something in the donation area?

**Developer response:** Did you running a TestFlight version of igotify?
When yes that’s the problem.
If not please contact me via mail.
