FAQs

Does my terminal output pass through any servers?
No. No content of your terminal output will ever pass through any servers. We relay events generated by top-level utilities like ps and top to send notifications. You can read more in our Privacy Policy.
What information do you store, if any?
The absolute bare minimum needed for functionality and security: just the bot's token, webhook url, and the number of notifications sent.
Is Nudge Notifier available for Microsoft Teams?
If your team uses Microsoft Teams, write to us.
In the meantime, might we suggest using Slack or Discord on your phone as a stopgap.
Do you have a jingle?
