Bark - A Utility for Custom Push Notifications
Bark is a utility app designed for iPhone users, enabling the sending of customized push notifications through an HTTP API. This application stands out with features such as notification grouping, custom icons, and ringtones, as well as critical alerts and continuous notifications. Its design prioritizes user privacy and security, ensuring that notifications are sent without draining the device's battery, as it leverages iOS's system push services.
The app ensures high reliability and supports self-deployment of its server via Docker or Cloudflare Worker. Bark's end-to-end encryption guarantees that push content remains secure during transmission, preventing unauthorized access. The app also maintains a secure local history of notifications, utilizing the NotificationServiceExtension to store messages only upon receipt, further enhancing user security.
