Is this tool still having issues?
I use it every day. 
Thank you sir!
Hi,
could you please confirm if you were able to get this set up and working,
Hi! I have a doubt. What are the differences between using this component (fcm-android) or using the integrated component notify.mobile_app?
As far as I know Ariela is able to use both of them.
Fcm-android is using your server to communicate with Firebase.
Mobile_app will need to send a http request to custom server and from there to Firebase.
I am not sure I am understanding it.
So, in Ariela, notify.mobile_app… what custom server is using? one of Ariela?
Any app that will use notify.mobile_app will have to forward the data to a own server. Home Assistant is sending the notification data (of Ariela) to https://ariela.surodev.com and from there to google servers.
can someone please help
I’ve downloaded the required app and I’m trying to log in yet it keeps telling my password is incorrect, i have the following set up on my HA
auth_providers:
- type: legacy_api_password
api_password: mypassword
am I missing something
Is there a way to set a different notification sound for each notification? My phone currently just beeps. I want to make it sound an alarm when I receive a notification that my alarm has been triggered.
Hi, I am new to this… Do we still need to use the legacy API password? Because I dropped that a while ago, and using the new bearer system…

Hey guys. I no longer work on this (it’s been some time now) as I have switched over to the iPhone world/cult. Feel free to pick up where I left off if you want.
Ow ok, gonna struggle some more with HTML5 then 
Hi, firstly thanks for this great component. Its simply amazing.
I have a quick question, I have a doorbell automation which works like this.
When someone presses the push button on my doorbell switch, home assitant automation will send an actionable notification to my phone with the cctv image and a button to open my gate. I just want to add the date&time the button was pressed to my notification message. Please advise what to add in this { } bracket into my code below. FYI I already have date&time sensor setup in HA.
- id: '157345454522'
alias: Gate Automation
description: ''
trigger:
- entity_id: switch.door_bell
from: 'off'
platform: state
to: 'on'
condition:
condition: template
value_template: '{{ (as_timestamp(now()) - as_timestamp(state_attr(''automation.gate_automation'',
''last_triggered'') | default(0)) | int > 7)}}'
action:
- data:
data:
actions:
- action: open_gate
title: Open Gate
image: https://cctv.abc.com
message: Someone is at the door at {{show the time here}}
service: notify.android
Is it possible to send an animated gif instead of a static image? With html5 that can be done but only the first frame of the the gif is showed (so no animation).
Can you show a live camera stream within the notification (instead of the image)?
Can you have an action that triggers an activity on the device (e.g. show a website or open an app or go a specific tab of Home Assistant)?
How do I connect? Anyone else seeing this error?
Also tried using ip address instead, then I get error “Invalid password” and inside home assistant
I get notification:
Login attempt failed
Login attempt or request with invalid authentication from 192.168.8.104
When loggin in from a browser you need to provice both username and password, this apps login procedure seems to be missing username, why I would expect login to not be possible, but I do not see a whole lot of negative reviews, so somehow it must be possible to login?
Hi Ionut, sorry for the the delay.
I think you are speaking about notifications from client device to HA server, isn’t it?
Is there any difference in the other way? I mean notifications (not actionable) from HA server to client devices (mobile phone).
My main concern is about opened ports.
With notify.mobile_app and with fcm-android I must open the HA http port in the server? Or some of it could work (notify mobiles) without open any port?
Thanks
Hello,
WIth Ariela and new mobile_app notification system you do not need to open any ports in order to receive any notifications on your phone. Of course this will only work for normal notifications. If you want actionable ones and you want to control HA from outside your house then your server must be accessible outside the network (port forwarding or Nabu casa etc)
Ah cool didn’t know Ariela works like this. But to be honest, don’t have a real use without actionable notifications.
Well not only Ariela works like that, this will happen with any app. But like i said, as long you do not need to press a button on the notification in order to send an event to HA, porr t forwarsinf, VPN or other solutions are not required.
