Feature Request: Play sounds / display notifications #166

Closed fplanque closed 1 year ago

(I read in the AppStore that you accepted feature requests here ;)

I am desperately looking for an app that could (re)connect to my MQTT server in the background (any time it's available), subscribe to some topics and then play sounds / display system alerts based on a string in a subscribed topic.

Hi @fplanque

This feature is out of scope for MQTTAnalyzer as it would require some extra server components to be installed. It is not possible for an iOS to do permanent background checks. The only way to achieve this would be to have a server that creates push notifications when an event happens.

The goal for this app is to be the best development and debug tool for MQTT and not to be the best smart home end-user interface 😉.
