- 📦PushWard updated to version 1.22.0PushWard 1.22.0 adds two more ways to sign in, next to Sign in with Apple: Google, and a code sent to your email.
- Continue with Google signs you in with your Google account on iPhone, iPad and Mac, in the system sign-in sheet.
- Continue with email sends a six-digit code to your address. Type it in, or let AutoFill take it from Mail.
- An address or Google account you already use in the PushWard web console signs in to the same account.
- Screens keep loading through a short server outage: a screen you open waits up to two minutes for the server to come back instead of showing an error.
- Background refreshes no longer show error alerts during an outage.
- The sign-in screen fits all three methods on smaller iPhones, and the sign-in sheet in Look around opens full height.… more - 📦PushWard updated to version 1.21.0PushWard 1.21.0 shows you what it does before you sign in, and gets you to your first push in a few steps.
- Live Stage: the sign-in screen and the tour play a short story with the app's own Live Activity cards - a Build Pipeline stepping through six colored steps, a release approval with Approve and Reject, a deploy with live progress, and Midnight Static by The Lowlands with its cover art.
- Play it on my Lock Screen shows the story's card as a real Live Activity on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, before you have an account.
- Look around first opens the app over sample data. Anything that would change an account asks you to sign in first.
- One notification screen after sign-in, and a sample push a few seconds after you allow notifications. Alarms and critical alerts moved to a Device check list.
- Get your first push: a checklist sets up the source you picked in the tour, with your integration key already filled in and hidden until you confirm with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode. It listens for your first real push and celebrates when it arrives.
- A new install follows your iPhone's language, in all 25 languages PushWard speaks. An install that showed English before keeps it, and Settings > Language still changes it.
- Copied keys stay on this iPhone: they no longer reach your other devices through Universal Clipboard and still clear after a minute, and a new key's text can only be copied with its Copy button.
- Account Access for integration keys: three new levels - Devices, Sharing and Account - each set to No access, Read access or Full management. Every key starts with no access to them. Your default key is now listed first in Integration Keys, and only its Account Access can be changed there.
- Approvals that need an unlock: an approval option marked as needing authentication waits for Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode before its answer is sent from a Live Activity. A cancelled unlock sends nothing.
- Apple Watch: an unlocked watch on your wrist counts as unlocked for those options, and the two approval buttons on the wrist always keep one way to refuse.
Fixed:
- Counts read correctly in all 25 languages - notifications, sharing, share code uses, demo steps, trial lengths and more - for example 1 powiadomienie and 2 powiadomienia in Polish, and 1 update in English.… more - ✏️PushWard: new iPad screenshots· IT

- 📦PushWard updated to version 1.20.0PushWard 1.20.0 adds snooze buttons, lets a sender take a notification back, and walks approval cards through several questions.
- Snooze: notifications can carry Snooze 15 min or Snooze 1 h buttons (the sender picks the times). The notification goes away and comes back on the same device later, without opening the app.
- A snoozed notification stays away when it is no longer needed: when a newer one replaces it, when you read it here or on another device, or when you delete it.
- Take back: a sender can withdraw a notification it sent, for example once the garage door is closed. It leaves the Lock Screen and Notification Center, and its row in Notifications stays, marked read.
- Approval cards with several questions: one Live Activity steps through them in place. The Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island show 2/3, and after an answer the card says the next question is coming. The step also shows on the Mac menu bar and notch, on Apple Watch and in the Activities list.
Fixed:
- VoiceOver now says Next track for the media card's skip button.… more - ✏️PushWard: new iPad screenshots· BR, DE

- 📦PushWard updated to version 1.19.2PushWard 1.19.2 makes countdown alarms more dependable when iOS skips showing a new Live Activity.
Fixed:
- A countdown alarm could stay silent on a phone where iOS didn't show the new Live Activity. iOS limits how many Live Activities an app can start remotely on each phone and skips the rest without telling the app. PushWard now sets the alarm whenever it gets to run on that phone.
- A Live Activity that iOS skipped on one of your phones now appears when you open PushWard on that phone.
- Unsubscribing one of your iPhones from an activity now lasts. Reopening PushWard no longer brings the activity, or its alarm, back on that phone.… more - ✏️PushWard: new iPad screenshots· CA, AU

- 📦PushWard updated to version 1.19.1PushWard 1.19.1 lets you choose what the right side of the compact Dynamic Island shows.
- Trailing slot: send compact_trailing_icon (an SF Symbol or mdi: icon) or compact_trailing_label (up to 4 characters), and it replaces the step count, timer, ETA or value on the right of the compact Dynamic Island, on every template. Together with the Dynamic Island label on the left you can show an aircraft type and a take-off icon side by side.
- The activity designer has a trailing label and a trailing icon next to the Dynamic Island label, and the preview shows them.
- On the Mac, the notch shows the trailing icon.
- VoiceOver reads a trailing label before the value it replaced, so the step or progress is still announced.
Fixed:
- VoiceOver on an alert's compact Dynamic Island skipped the time since the alert fired.
- The steps row on the Lock Screen showed the step name twice when the state was the same as the step name.… more - 📈PushWard entered the top 10Top Grossing · Developer Tools · CA
- 📦PushWard updated to version 1.19.0PushWard 1.19.0 turns the countdown into Timer: it counts up as well as down, pauses, and can hide its ruler.
- Timer: the countdown template is now called Timer and can count up from a start time, so the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, Apple Watch and the Mac menu bar show how long something has been running - a nap, a workout, a focus session.
- Goals: a timer that counts up can have a goal. The ruler fills toward it, and once it is passed the clock turns orange and counts the overtime.
- Pause and resume: freeze a timer in either direction and carry on where it stopped. A paused countdown's alarm waits until it runs again.
- Hide the ruler: show just the name, the state and a big clock.
- The activity designer can create a timer that counts up, with its start time and an optional goal, and can turn the ruler off.
- iPhone Duo: unfolded, Activities, Widgets and Notifications show the list beside the detail, and folding or unfolding keeps what you had open, sheets included.
- Usage shows how many devices are signed in against your plan's limit.
- Your integration key stays hidden until Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode, and hides again when you leave the app.
- Deleting your account asks you to confirm with Sign in with Apple, so PushWard's access to your Apple ID is revoked as well.
- Notification list rows lead with the title and show the subtitle.
Fixed:
- Editing a timer in the designer without touching its clock resumed a paused timer, or restarted a countdown from now.
- After a "too many requests" reply the notification list showed an error and tried again right away. It now keeps your history on screen and waits before the next sync.
- Activities created in the designer started out ended, so no Live Activity appeared.
- Creating a Stat List widget failed.
- iPhone banners drawn with a source's name and icon left out the title and subtitle.
- Family Sharing members stayed on the free plan until they tapped Restore Purchases.
- Some languages used the wrong word for Priority and for incompatible changes in What's New.… more - 📦PushWard updated to version 1.18.1PushWard 1.18.1 makes the actions that need your approval safer.
Fixed:
- Actions that require authentication now ask for Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode in the app, and Siri and Shortcuts no longer run them. - 📦PushWard updated to version 1.18.0PushWard 1.18.0 adds organization encryption keys, organization widgets on Apple Watch, and Premium provided by your organization's plan.
- Organization encryption keys: Settings > End-to-End Encryption now has an Organization Keys section. Add the shared key your organization's admin gives you by pasting it, or by scanning its QR code on iPhone and iPad. Organization keys sync through iCloud Keychain, stay separate from your own key, and can be shown, shared or removed one organization at a time.
- Apple Watch: your organizations' widgets now appear in the watch app's Widgets list and in the complication and Smart Stack picker, after your own widgets. Tapping one opens it.
- Organization seats: when your organization's plan covers you, Settings and the subscription screen show Premium as provided by your organization, with nothing to buy.
- Reaching a limit on a paid plan now tells you when it resets instead of offering an upgrade.
- Leaving an organization offers to remove its encryption keys from your devices.
Fixed:
- Widgets and watch complications could stop updating after you signed in on another device. They now recover the next time you open PushWard.… more - 📦PushWard updated to version 1.17.0PushWard 1.17.0 adds end-to-end encrypted notifications, acknowledged alerts, a Devices screen and Organizations (beta).
- End-to-end encryption: create a key in Settings > End-to-End Encryption and your senders can encrypt the title, subtitle, body and link, so PushWard's servers only ever see the encrypted text. The key syncs through iCloud Keychain and can be shown as text or a QR code.
- Acknowledged alerts: when an alert that repeats until answered is acknowledged on one device, it clears from your other devices, and any later repeat arrives silently.
- Devices: see every device signed in to your account, rename it, or remove one you no longer use.
- Organizations (beta, invite only): join a team from an invite link, choose which of your devices get its alerts, mute patterns, and see its activities, notifications and widgets marked with the team's name.
- The default integration key can be rolled from Settings and no longer appears in Manage Keys.
- Shared with Me shows who shared each item.
Fixed:
- Notifications saved while the app was closed could sort above newer ones and never age out.
- Reading a notification on another device or with Siri could remove a newer banner from the same sender.
- Answering from a banner while the app was in the background could fail to save the answer.
- The Face ID and AlarmKit permission prompts are now translated.… more - 📦PushWard: now updating weekly4 updates in 30 days, after a quiet two months
- 📈PushWard entered the top 10Top Grossing · Developer Tools · IT
- 📦PushWard updated to version 1.16.0Integration keys can now be limited per resource, restricted to specific widgets and given an expiry date.
- Per-resource permissions: set each key's level for activities, notifications, widgets and emails, or start from the Full access, Notifications only or Read only preset.
- Widget limits: restrict a key to specific widgets by slug, exactly or by prefix.
- Key expiry: give a key an expiry date and see when each key expires.
- API, CLI and MCP: the default key can now create and manage your other keys with the same permissions, widget limits and expiry.
Fixed:
- Integration key permission labels switch language right away after an in-app language change, and VoiceOver reads a key's activity level in your language.… more - 📦PushWard updated to version 1.15.0Scheduled notifications, in-app replies and a safer way to open links.
- Scheduled notifications: a clock button in the Notifications tab lists what is queued, marks repeating series and keeps cancels for 24 hours. Swipe to cancel a send or stop a series.
- Reply and answer from a notification's detail, see your answer, and spot rows marked Needs Reply or Answered.
- Links from notifications ask before opening, with a Trusted Sites list under Settings > Links.
- After an update, the app shows what is new once.
- Siri and Shortcuts now say when a notification action did not go through.
Fixed:
- Continue on the sign-in screen no longer restores a session after Sign in with Apple was stopped or the Apple ID changed.
- Apple Watch complications keep updating after the watch's device ID changes.
- Activities stay in Spotlight and Siri during background re-indexing.
- Activity History no longer duplicates entries on relaunch.… more - 📈PushWard entered the top 10Top Grossing · Developer Tools · KR
