Ways to get notified

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast will I receive notifications? +

We monitor Apple's servers every few minutes and send alerts within 15 minutes of a new release being detected. You'll often know about updates before Apple's own notification system alerts your device.

What devices are supported? +

We support all Apple devices including iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and HomePod. You can subscribe to updates for specific device models or multiple devices.

Is this service really free? +

Yes, completely free with no hidden costs. EarlyNotify is an open-source project built by Apple enthusiasts for the community. You can view our source code on GitHub.

How do I unsubscribe? +

Every notification includes an unsubscribe link. Click it and you'll be immediately unsubscribed. No questions asked. Email and webhook signups need confirming first; Discord, Slack, Teams and Pushover start straight away.

Do you sell or share my details? +

Never. We only store where to send your notifications (your email address, webhook URL or Pushover keys) and your device choice. We don't use analytics, tracking, or share data with third parties. Your privacy is our priority.

Can I subscribe to multiple devices? +

Yes! Subscribe once for each device, using the same email address, webhook or Pushover key, or different ones. Each subscription is managed independently.
