rrring turns any webhook into a push notification on your phone. Create a free channel at rrring.cloud, copy the private webhook URL, and POST a title and body to it from anywhere - a cron job, a CI pipeline, a home server, a monitoring tool, a script, an IFTTT/Zapier flow, an LLM agent. Your phone rings the instant the request lands. HOW IT WORKS Sign up at rrring.cloud (free) and create a channel. Open the channel and tap "Pair with phone" to show a QR code. Open rrring on your phone, scan the QR, and you're paired. POST to your private webhook URL. Your phone rings. WHAT IT'S FOR • Deploy and CI/CD alerts ("build green", "prod deploy finished") • Server and uptime monitoring • Home-lab and self-hosted apps (Home Assistant, Proxmox, Synology, Unraid) • Long-running jobs ("training run finished", "backup complete") • LLM agents and automations that need to ping a human • Zapier, Make, n8n, IFTTT - anything that can hit a URL • Personal reminders from your own scripts and cron jobs • Anything you'd otherwise email yourself FEATURES • Instant delivery - real-time WebSocket plus APNs push, whichever arrives first wins • Multiple channels - pair as many as you want, each with its own private webhook • Tap to open - include a "url" field in the webhook and tapping the notification opens it • Notification history - scroll back through every ring per channel • Pull to refresh, infinite scroll through older alerts • Pair multiple devices to the same channel - phones, tablets, browsers all ring together • No account required in the app - pairing happens entirely via QR code • Long-press a channel to unsubscribe instantly PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Each channel gets its own unguessable webhook token — only you have it • Pairing codes expire after 5 minutes and are single-use • No ads, no tracking, no third-party analytics • Unpair any time and the device token is revoked server-side ABOUT rrring.cloud rrring.cloud is a free notification hub.
