Based on the icon and my mobile dev experience ... Either you need the Pushover app (hence the 'P' icon) to get a push notification or you can make your mobile app the recipient of the push notification (like UrbanAirship does) by including a library in your mobile app.
For SMS I generally use Twilio or Plivo - either is a perfectly decent SMS service. Twilio and Plivo have similar REST apis and would have similar looking calls. -Todd Blanchard > On Jan 29, 2018, at 12:34 PM, Esteban A.
