MQTT Push Client (App)

The “MQTT Push Client” app receives MQTT messages, issues push notifications (optionally with sound) for registered topics within seconds, and displays them in a list or in a GUI (“Dashboard”). Users will be notified upon important events such as burglary, a water problem, defective cooling, temperature statistics, etc. directly on a mobile phone or on all mobile phones of a group, e.g. family members.

The dashboard view offers GUI elements like buttons, sliders, icons, text panels etc. with colors and background images to display or send MQTT messages. In addition, the Custom View dash allows designing the complete element using HTML. Practical examples are controlling IoT devices remotely, e.g. lights on/off or alarm systems.

It is an easy-to-use app for MQTT environments.
