    Getting alerts while sleeping... looking for ideas

    Awesome, looking forward to it! Glad you got a response from Ken about it because I never did on any of my "Critical Alerts" email requests. I assume it'll be added as new option on the BI Alerts > Configure Push Notification page? I'm curious if it'll simply be a checkbox to send as a Critical...

    Getting alerts while sleeping... looking for ideas

    Further down on that webpage there's a "Your E-mail Aliases" section where you can click, "Create an E-mail Alias." That next page should look like my screenshot. To be clear, I've been testing with their email service (where BI sends the alert to Pushover as an email, then Pushover sends the...

    Getting alerts while sleeping... looking for ideas

    Did the Pushover app prompt you to allow "Critical Alerts" permission? Here's a screenshot of my settings from the Pushover website. I think the Priority setting is important. For what it's worth, I did recently email BI support requesting Critical Alerts again. So the more people who request...

    @brianegge that's awesome, thanks for the instructions. It seems silly that it's not explained better on the DND settings page. I'll have to try it out.

    Not sure if you're interested in 3rd party solutions, but I've been using Pushover to test this. Their iOS app supports Critical Alerts and they generate a unique email address for you to which you can send your BI alerts. I think I paid a one-time $5 for the iOS app and the rest is free.

    That’s a good suggestion, though I think the “favorites” exception only allows phone calls through and not texts.

    @105437, I totally agree. I'd love support for critical alerts added to the BI iOS app. I've requested it a number of times and will do so again. :)

    The new updated android app has been pushed to the play store

    For comparison, when the new version of the iOS app was released last year it too had a number of bugs, but the dev has released quite a few (and frequent) updates to the iOS app addressing those issues. I'd expect the same for this Android version in the coming weeks and months. I sent a lot of...

    Blue Iris UI3

    @bp2008 Love the new auto-maximize feature, thank you for building it! What determines how long a cam is maximized? Does it remain maximized while the cam is in a triggered state (break time), or is it a separate timer? How does UI3 handle the "auto-maximize" when multiple cameras are...

    Glitch switching from sub stream to main

    I just updated to 5.3.9 and this behavior seems to be much better. How is it working for you?

    Glitch switching from sub stream to main

    BI support says, "An update today 5.3.9 will free the main steam buffer completely when switching ..." so maybe that will help.

    Blue Iris UI3

    @bp2008 Are you open to removing the "Sentry" name from the Canceled and Confirmed menu options in UI3, to match the change in BI? I assume it was changed since users can now utilize those same canceled/confirmed flags with AI Tool, etc to sort alerts? Thanks!

    Hey @Mike Happy Holidays! Have you been able to update the Tapatalk plugin? I'm still seeing the issues mentioned earlier and want to rule out the plugin version as the problem. Thanks!

    Noticing the same thing. Glad it’s not just mine. I’ll still email support to mention it though.

    Alerts/clear all not working in BI app in Android

    I’ve been seeing a similar behavior for the past week. When I watch each alert, they are marked viewed, but then when the app refreshes, some of the old alerts are marked new again.

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    @joshwah Instead of using &flagalert=0 in the cancel URL, I believe you could use &flagalert=-1 to reset the alert state. Then it wouldn’t be removed from the alerts list. Here are the options from the manual: Currently, the canceled alerts are just moved to the Canceled Alerts section if you...
