QUIET HOURS Pause forwarding to specific destinations during specific hours. No 3am Slack pings. Day of week control. Overnight windows handled cleanly. LIGHT TRANSFORMS Customize how forwarded texts read at the destination. Add the sender as a prefix. Strip promotional footers. Remove bracketed prefixes so the message arrives clean. YOUR MESSAGES STAY ON YOUR DEVICE Every SMS, every routing rule, and every classification result lives on your iPhone. Relay never uploads your message content to our servers and never shares it with anyone except the destinations you choose. No account, no sign-in, no profile, no cloud sync of your messages. HOW IT WORKS For Relay to work properly, you have to configure an automation using Apple Shortcuts for the app to get access to new incoming SMS. Relay cannot directly access your text messages or messaging history. When the Shortcut automation runs, the message content and sender name pass through Relay, classify on device, and forward only to the destinations you have pre-configured. You can even set up a confirmation step before anything is forwarded. Setup takes 60 seconds. Runs forever. Never needs touching again. RELAY PRO Relay is free to use. For advanced use cases, you can opt for a paid subscription of Relay Pro, which unlocks unlimited forwarding, unlimited destinations, unlimited smart-filter rules, and your full activity history. Multiple subscription plans are available — weekly, monthly, and annual, with a free trial on the annual plan. Pricing is shown in your local currency at checkout. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at purchase. Subscriptions auto-renew unless turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use: https://relaysms.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://relaysms.app/privacy

WebhookPush turns any webhook into an instant push notification on your iPhone or iPad. Create a private URL, paste it anywhere that can send a webhook — CI pipelines, TradingView, Stripe, GitHub, cron jobs, smart-home hubs, your own code — and every event lands in your pocket the moment it happens. AI AGENTS CAN REACH YOU — AND WAIT FOR YOUR ANSWER • Connect Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client to your account — one URL, no key to paste • An agent can push you a notification, or ask a question and wait for your reply • Tap an answer on your lock screen and the agent continues with your decision • Let an agent create, test and inspect your webhooks, or read what they received • You approve exactly what each client may do, and can revoke it at any time • Built on MCP (Model Context Protocol) — setup guide: https://webhook.sp33c.tech/ai SET UP IN UNDER A MINUTE • Create a webhook in the app — your private URL and secret are live instantly • One curl command to test. That's the whole integration. • No SDK, no code changes on your side — anything that can POST can push MAKE EVERY ALERT READ THE WAY YOU WANT • Map any JSON field into the notification with {{ payload.field }} templates • Live preview against real payloads — what you see is what arrives • Plain-text senders (like TradingView alerts) work out of the box BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO RUN THINGS • Inbox with tags, filters and a raw-payload viewer for debugging • Badge counts that always match your unread events • Dead-man's-switch monitoring: get alerted when a cron job STOPS calling • Failure alerts: report ?status=fail and see the error, not silence PRIVATE AND UNDER YOUR CONTROL • Per-webhook secrets (header or URL), rotate anytime • Deactivate or delete a webhook — with its message history — in one swipe • Choose your data region: Europe or US East • Your session stays signed in and refreshes silently WORKS WITH TradingView Ā· GitHub Actions Ā· GitLab CI Ā· Stripe Ā· Shopify Ā· Grafana Ā· Uptime monitors Ā· Home Assistant Ā· n8n, Make & Zapier (via their webhook nodes — native integrations coming) FAIR PRICING Free: 2 webhooks, 50 events/day — forever.
