What is not there
Native iOS and Android apps
We are not building them for now. If that changes, it will appear on the roadmap.
Installable web app (PWA)
The web app has no install manifest and no offline mode. A home-screen shortcut is just a bookmark.
Push notifications from the web app
For push on your phone use the Telegram app or a chat app, which notify you natively.
SMS and voice calls
Alerts go to e-mail, Telegram, chat apps and signed webhooks. SMS and voice are not planned.
Phone alerts in three steps
- In the app open Settings, Contacts and add a Telegram contact. Tenium shows a one-time link that opens the bot.
- Press Start in Telegram. The chat is linked and the contact turns verified.
- Press Send test on the contact. A message labelled TEST arrives within seconds.
