You can send push notifications to your iPhone by simply calling an HTTP API.
Bark supports many advanced iOS push features, such as custom icons, notification grouping, custom ringtones, continuous alerts, critical alerts, and encrypted pushes.
Bark does not consume device battery, as its core functionality relies on system push services and push extensions, and the app itself does not need to be running.
Bark ensures your privacy and security with high reliability.
Bark supports self-deploying the server, which can be deployed via Docker, Serverless, or Cloudflare Worker. The bark-server supports most operating systems, and you can also run it manually.
The app is compiled and uploaded through Github Action, ensuring that the version you’re using is compiled from open-source code, without any modifications by anyone (including the author).
Bark supports end-to-end push encryption with a custom key, ensuring that the push content is not accessed or leaked by the Bark server or Apple’s APNs server during transmission.
The notification message history saved locally by Bark is also very secure.
Using the NotificationServiceExtension, the push message is only stored on the device when the push is received.

This is no doubt the best push notification service for personal use. I tried many and Bark has the best polished app, the most complete notification options set, very clear and simple to use API with good documentation, best privacy, no fees, no ads, no account registration. It can be used with the public server or self hosted. Took me less than a minute to spin their docker container in Linux
