Things To Pushover Instructions

Things to Pushover Page is a simple static web page that lets you contruct a Things To-Do and send it to an iOS device. I wrote this because I use Windows Devices at work and wanted an easy way to send To-Dos to Things that was more powerful and capable than Mail to Things.

Details

This page was built using the Things URL-Scheme documentation page. I forked the HTML and CSS and stripped anything unecessary to create a simple page to generate the correct URL scheme for things. Feel free to customize or simplify this page further.

That URL is then sent to Pusbhullet which in turn will push the URL to your iOS device.

The auth-token and pushover access tokens are stored in your browser local storage for re-use.

You can bookmark the Things to Pushover Page on any web browser and send to-dos to your iOS devices.

The Things to Pushover Page is hosted on GitHub in this repository. You can view the source here.
