Having to re-type the same format for your daily TPS reports can become cumbersome. Instead of having to save the templates in email or elsewhere you can just have the format automatically created with the new file. This can save you time instead of having to type up the same format every time. Particularly, when there are new cover sheets to use. wwriteLite allows you to take notes, create blog posts, and do type up anything else that you see fit. The plain-text format allows for more flexibility than working within an HTML environment. One of the perks of wwrite is that you have the ability to create and customize templates. The app supports Slide Over, Split View, and all iPhone and iPad Sizes. There is keyboard support, including keyboard shortcuts. Just hold down the Command Key to find out all of the shortcuts. The files that you create can be emailed individual, or an archive can be created; which can subsequently be emailed. You can also retrieve any archives through iTunes. If you're using an iPad, you can also import and export files using drag and drop to bring files in and out. If you get stuck, or see a problem, just tap on Tools -> Support and either email or send a tweet and we can work through the problem.

SelfNotify is a simple, powerful way to send notifications to yourself from anywhere. Whether you’re running scripts, monitoring servers, tracking automations, or just want quick reminders, SelfNotify gives you a private push notification endpoint tied to your device. No API keys, no complex setup—just your personal token. What it does SelfNotify lets you trigger push notifications by sending an HTTP POST request to a single endpoint. Your device receives the notification instantly. Premium subscribers can add optional fields like title, subtitle, sound, and alert level for richer alerts. It’s built for developers, automation enthusiasts, and anyone who wants reliable “push-to-self” messaging. How it works • Install the app and sign in. • Get your personal token from the main screen. • Send a POST request to: https://self-notify.com/send, Works with JSON or URL-encoded form data • Include your token and message. Premium subscribers can add optional fields like title, subtitle, sound, or alert level. That’s it. The notification arrives on your device. Ideal for • DevOps: alert yourself when jobs fail or succeed • CI/CD: build, test, deploy notifications • Cron jobs and scripts • Personal automations and reminders • Monitoring disk space, uptime, or log events • Quick pings from any service that can send HTTP Flexible notification levels (Premium) Choose how intrusive a message should be: • Active (default) • Passive (quiet delivery) • Time-Sensitive • Critical Extra customization (Premium) • Custom sounds (CAF) • Subtitle support • Extra custom fields for reference inside the app Free tier and subscription SelfNotify is free for up to 20 messages per day. Optional fields (title, subtitle, alert level, and sound) are available with a premium subscription. If you need more, an affordable subscription removes the daily limit so you can send as many notifications as you like. Privacy-first Your token is private and unique. It’s the only key needed to send notifications to your device. Notifications are not retained on our servers after delivery; they are removed once delivered and stored locally within the app. Quick example (JSON) Send a message in seconds: POST to https://self-notify.com/send Body: { "token": "YOUR_TOKEN", "title": "Build Complete", "message": "CI finished successfully." } SelfNotify is built for reliability and speed, with a clean interface and instant feedback.
