I have the following notify config…
- name: matt_ios
platform: ios
target: '<TOKEN>'
- name: alydia_ios
platform: ios
target: '<TOKEN>'
However, when calling either one of these services or specifying them in an automation, both devices receive the notification. The target specified in the config is not being respected.
I’m having a different issue but I believe related. When I try the above with my notification service of choice (Pushover) I get the notifications through the iOS app regardless of specifying Pushover
I have no notify: in my config when using the Ios app.
It should configure the services on its own without you having to specify them.
You should be able to use notify.ios_devicename for the service, and target a specific device. This is without specifying ios in the notify section of the config. I was able to send notifications to either my iPhone or iPad. Although, I did have to restart HomeAssistant after installing the app and enabling notifications for each devic to show up under the notify > service dropdown
Do not add any configuration under notify. The only thing you ever need to add to your Home Assistant configuration is ios:. Just add it onto the end of configuration.yaml, restart and you’ll be 
Don’t remember where I found the notify config I was using, but it was definitely causing the problem. Thanks!
I already added that from before, can I just remove and everything should work fine?
I simply removed mine and everything appears to be working. I did have to update the notify groups that were sending notifications since my notify config did not use the same naming as the ios config.
I haven’t gotten around to actually creating automations yet so that shouldn’t be a problem 
I have my iphone setup as ‘ios_robins_iphone’ in the app, yet notifications go to ‘ios_ios_robins_iphone’ and I have no idea where that comes from… Anyone else experience this?
UPDATE: deleted data base and restarted, the ios_ios_robins_iphone. I wondered if this is because I declared ios: in config, so deleted it, but now the app doesn’t load the device tracker and notify components.
Now with ios: in config, have deleted all .conf files and know_devices.yaml, restarted multiple times.
I now have:
and:
So it appears unavoidable that notify appends ios_ to the start of the entity id…
Correct, this is normal behavior for Home Assistant. The format is notify.ios_<device ID>.
Hi there, I have a question and i’m not sure if this is the correct place to ask.
how can i send a notification to a more than 1 ios device, i know i can create a group, but not always i will send to the same members of that group, example:
notify if door is opened, notify to membe1, member2 and member4, but tomorrow member2 is on a trip so i need to remove it for the script.
thanks for your help
