NotiBridge → Forward Mac Notifications to iPhone
Rule-based forwarding of Mac app notifications to your phone when mobile push fails
- Problem
- Some messaging or work apps stop delivering push notifications to iPhone, yet notifications arrive fine on Mac when it is online, causing missed messages. Existing solutions either lack per-app and keyword filtering or require complex setup, and there is no simple reliable forwarding rule tool.
- Solution
- A Mac menu bar utility that reads notifications from Notification Center, filters them by app and keyword rules, and forwards to iPhone via existing push services like Bark. It supports multiple rules, quiet hours, tap-to-open source app, and minimal configuration.
- Users
- Mac + iPhone dual users, remote workers relying on Telegram and similar apps, and indie developers.
- MVP
- Read Mac Notification Center events; per-app and keyword forwarding rules; push to iPhone via Bark; quiet hours; forwarding history with retry
- Revenue
- Free basic forwarding; Pro lifetime unlock (~$6.99) for multiple rules, regex keywords, and multi-device groups; or annual subscription.
- Why now
- Unreliable mobile push and regional restrictions persist; macOS Notification Center APIs are mature and receiver ecosystems like Bark are ready, so an indie developer can assemble quickly.
