Team notifications and news
Only for iPhone
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
New: public channels. Follow earthquakes, weather, air quality, top stories and free game drops, with no account needed. Your team notifications work exactly as before.
Tiny Owl is the fastest way to send and receive push notifications, whether they come from your team or from a public channel you follow.
PUBLIC CHANNELS
Subscribe to a channel and get its alerts the moment they happen. No account, no email address, no location permission. One tap to join and one tap to leave.
• Earthquakes, with data from the USGS
• Severe weather alerts, aurora forecasts and air quality
• Top tech stories, and free games the day they drop
• Rocket launches, and the Space Station passing overhead
Every channel tells you where its data comes from and how often it posts, before you subscribe. If you like a channel but it turns noisy, mute it without leaving.
IMPORTANT
Tiny Owl is not an official emergency service and not an early warning system. Channels report events that have already happened, using public data, with whatever delay those sources carry. They never replace your local authorities or official emergency channels.
TEAM NOTIFICATIONS
• Real-time alerts from your teams, with delivery tracking
• Join by invitation, and see members and roles in one place
• Admins reach the whole team in a single tap
• Full notification history, with delivery status and timestamps
• Mute individual teams or channels without leaving them
• Sign in with Apple, Google, or email
HOW IT WORKS
1. Open the app and pick a channel, or accept your team's invitation.
2. Turn on notifications.
3. That's it. Alerts arrive on their own.
Teams can also send broadcasts from the API, from the app, or from the Tiny Owl web dashboard at tinyowl.io.
In Spanish the app is called Buhito, and in Portuguese Corujinha.

You can now mute a public channel without leaving it, so a noisy feed no longer costs you the channel. The channel browser has been rebuilt to make what you have joined clearer at a glance.
