I’m looking for some brave people to try out my other app called Status. It’s an app that you can use for updown.io. It’s in a “pre-alpha” at the moment and has still a way to go. iOS only at the moment. Interested? [email protected].

When I say “pre-alpha” I mean exactly that. This is what works:

• Login with both read-only and full access tokens.
• See all your checks.
• See any checks that are down.
• Webhooks can be seen also.
• You can view all the updown nodes.
• You can register for push notifications, so the app notifies you when something goes down. More on this in a moment.
• You can enable and disable checks.
• Very basic check detail screen. This one is going to take some time.

Regarding push notifications: this will register a unique device token on a small API that I wrote, which in turn creates a webhook at the updown end. This is all happening in-app and no updown token or any other personal info is shared with my API. Once updown sees a site down, it will send the details to the Status API, which in turns sends out a nice push notification.

It’s been working well the past few times.
