Wow. This app is great. As a freelance web developer, the app helps a lot. I couldn’t help but notice there was a small discussion about the app not being available to Blackberry users. I just wanted to say, you’re right, Blackberry is a much more “local” phenomenon than most North Americans believe. I perfer the iPhone as well, and most of the other freelancers I meet do as well.

Please add multiple logins for the same account!
We need push notifications for members, who don’t particularly need access to admin details, but do need to know when the site goes down.
Thanks!

Just be aware that the Apple Push Notification Service (APNS) documentation specifically says that push notification delivery is not guaranteed.

So think of it more like a pager message than an sms.

I must say it’s a little bit strange that a pinging application needs to use the microphone…

1st gen iPod Touch, running 3.1.2

The error comes from the AppStore, before you can install the application. I.e I guess you’re referencing the microphone API, and AppStore knows the Touch does not have that. Or they screwed up when adding it to the AppStore, I don’t actually know how that works…

Anyway, hope you can get that sorted out, it would be useful…

I’ve been a subscriber for a long time and I was excited about the app. I attempted to install it on my iPod Touch (you said it would work on a Touch) and it said that it required a microphone for install. Can you fix this problem please… Also, please consider developing for Blackberry.

I just upgraded my pingdom iPhone app to version 2.0 and I am very impressed! Love the push notification feature (although I hope never to use it) and of course the graphs. Congrats to the Pingdom team on developing such a cool App!

No matter what I try I just get the message “No iPhones are connected to this contact” in the web panel. I’ve gone into the iPhone app settings, hit Notifications and ticked the contact, but it still doesn’t change.
