Notification settings
The current version of the Houseper system supports 2 types of notifications - system and regular, which can be send in two ways - to email and/or smart phone(s)/tablet(s). Notifications types:
- System notifications concern your system state, such as insufficient disk space, upcoming cloud service stops, and so on.
- Regular notifications are those that keep you informed of events such as fire, flood, and so on.
E-mail notifications
To configure email notifications, go to E-mail Settings in the Settings tab of Houseper app. You have two options that can work both individually and simultaneously.
- Houseper service mail - Use the Edit button to enter/change the e-mails to which you want to receive notifications. If you list more than one email, make sure they are separated by ";" Once you've configured your emails, you can use the checkbox to enable/disable them. When the check box is not marked, you will not receive emails. Sending emails through Houseper service mail is only possible with active cloud services
- Personal mail - Use the Edit button to configure the e-mail(s) to which you want to receive notifications. Use ";" as a separator when counting more than one e-mail. Using the start checkbox, you can temporarily stop and start sending emails. Personal mail does not require active cloud services.
Smartphone(s)/tablet(s) notifications
To receive notifications on your phone/tablet, make sure that:
- "send notifications" for your phone/tablet in the Houseper app, Settings tab, Remote control, Authorized devices section is marked.
- you have Status "registered" in Houseper mobile app, the Settings tab, Notifications section. You can test it by the Test button and in case of a problem, renew your registration using the Renew registration button.
- you did not kill a Houseper mobile app - for most phones, notifications do not work after the application's Force stop.
