For some time I have been using XMPP notification, based on https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Installin ... ion_System but adding XMPP as a built-in notification system would simplify this.

Within the Notifications tab of the Setup page the would be the settings for the XMPP account of the Domoticz user, HAUSER in the setting up XMPP

For a very simple setup this would require sendxmpp (the option could be disabled if this was not present), and simply configure as per the WIki entry.

The https://conversations.im/ Android XMPP client has been working very will for me. Although I run my own XMPP server there are plenty where a free account can be set up.

XMPP notifications are a flexible alternative to the Notification services already supported. It can be scripted, has clients on many platforms, and can carry images if needed, for example a camera snapshot when a doorbell is rung
