How do I get an instant notification on my phone from my code?
Use Lert. Have your code POST to your link at the exact moment the event happens — your iPhone buzzes in about a second, even locked. No account, no API key, no SDK. Any HTTP call, any language.
The key to instant is that there's nothing between your code and your phone. When the event fires — an exception is caught, a payment lands, a queue empties — your code makes one HTTP POST and the notification is on its way. No polling, no batching, no cron in the middle.
The entire setup — under 30 seconds
- Download the app. Open it once. No account to create.
- Copy your link. Your private link is on screen — one tap copies it.
- POST from your code. Drop the request wherever the event happens.
Drop it wherever the event fires
import requests requests.post("https://lert.dev/p/your-id", json={"title":"Error","body":"Payment webhook failed"})
The same idea in JavaScript is one fetch; in a shell script it's one curl. Because the link is the credential, you can put the call inside an exception handler, a webhook route, or a background worker without wiring up any auth.
Not writing the code yourself? Hand your link to your AI assistant and say "POST to this when the job finishes." Because there's no SDK or key to explain, it can wire it up in one step.
