Notyfy aggregates notifications from Gmail, Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, LinkedIn, Quora, Github, Stackoverflow and more in one place for Chrome, Firefox and Edge.
@zwacky I've logged in with my Twitter account but for some reason the notifications are not showing up in the extention even there is one active. Am I missing something?
@zwacky@spekulatius1984 I'm logged in to Twitter in Chrome but extension needed additional login from me to Twitter. Thats also mentioned in the features table on the extension home page.
@spekulatius1984@csaba_kissi Hey Csaba, this is something I'm eager to have in Notyfy as well! Some time ago this was not possible technically, but I will recheck the possibilities in the next update. That is why I introduced the Oauth login flow so Notyfy at least has Twitter support.
I see that Twitter has launched already many great features in the meantime like multi tenant support to have more than just one account logged in.
Happy to share Notyfy with ProductHunt today! I've discovered it a bit ago on Reddit and send @zwacky a message. We got chatting and I told him we should get this into more hands - or browsers. Here we are! Congrats @zwacky!
Hey Product Hunt and thank you @spekulatius1984 for hunting Notyfy!
I'm Simon, the one man show behind Notyfy and excited to share this tool with you!
💬 BACKSTORY OF NOTYFY
Some users may remember the chrome extension "Chime for Chrome", which I was a big fan of 5 years ago. Sadly it was abandoned and stopped working. Also we as users have changed: We aren't okay anymore to grant any browser extension permission to let a chrome extension read all our cookies.
Notyfy wants to pick up where “Chime for Chrome” left off, while making it better and more current.
👀 HOW IT WORKS
Notyfy will check in the background if there are new notifications on your logged in and selected platforms. It is optimised to keep the transferred data to a minimum because it doesn't download the whole website, big images or load all the ads.
When a new notification appears, Notyfy will add an unobtrusive "1" badge on the extension's icon. It will give you the relief that you haven't forgotten to follow up on things. Your aunt's birthday on Facebook? Your job inquiry message on LinkedIn? The reddit post you made and somebody replied 2 days later? New comments on your ProductHunt launch? You won't miss out anymore! You are covered for this and many other cases.
🎯 FEATURES
Get all your notifications in one place right away—no login or setup required! Notyfy sees which platforms you're already logged in to. That means Notyfy doesn't ask you for your credentials or reads your cookies (it doesn't have the chrome permissions to do that).
It currently supports these platforms:
- Facebook
- Twitter
- Reddit
- Gmail
- Medium
- StackOverflow
- Quora
- LinkedIn
- GitHub
- Product Hunt 🔥
👩💻 FOR THE TECHIES
Notyfy was built with React, Redux, Typescript and Ionic 5.
😍 Thanks for considering trying out Notyfy and leaving any feedback!
@justin_rockmore Thank you for your kind words! Notion and Slack are really great suggestions. Slack support especially wouldn't make you have to start the memory hungry client 👌💯
@justin_rockmore@spekulatius1984 would need more time to validate but it subdomains wouldn't be a stopper, since the slack web app is still hosted on *.slack.com which forwards to app.slack.com.
@justin_rockmore following up your suggestion with Microsoft Teams: would be a big win since I'm struggling with notifications myself on that client a lot!
@justin_rockmore@faxmado Thanks for your input. Notyfy has been more social-heavy so far. I think work tools like Office365, Teams or Slack should be explored more!
I'm using Notyfy for a while already and love how it solves one task very well: Staying updated on websites that I don't like to open much, like Facebook. That way I still get notifications about birthdays without loading all of Facebook with all it's distractions.
