Your iPhone buzzes
With sound, even in Focus and on silent.
You decide what reaches you.
- Rules
- Source, tags, text, time and weekday set the alert level. Without rules, the sender's suggestion applies.
- Quiet hours
- Time windows also run past midnight. What is not important at night waits until morning.
- Grouping
- Repeats with the same dedup_key are one incident. Your phone does not ring for every repeat.
One HTTP call is enough.
Every source has its own key and its own rules. You install nothing. Alerts by email come with Business and above.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to set up rules?
No. PagerDeck works without custom rules. Alerts are assigned a level and delivered based on the urgency suggested by the sender. Rules are optional: use them to choose which messages stay silent, when quiet hours apply, or which alerts need your attention right away.
What does PagerDeck cost?
There are three plans: Pro, Business and Team. Pro covers your own systems, Business adds more systems, the email inbox and a longer history, Team adds shared alerts and defined roles. Prices appear only on the pricing page, so no outdated figure exists anywhere else.
Do I need the iOS app?
For push on the phone, yes: delivery runs through Apple's service, and that needs a paired device. Without one PagerDeck still accepts alerts; they then stand in the history in the dashboard.
What about critical alerts that break through silent mode?
Apple only allows those with an entitlement granted per app, and on top of that the user has to agree on the device. As long as both are not in place, the critical level falls back to high - visible in the history, without an alert being lost.
What happens after the 14 days?
Without a subscription PagerDeck stops accepting alerts. The time remaining is shown in the account and in the header of every response from the interface. Account, history, sources including their keys and paired devices all stay; once you pay, everything continues without setting anything up again.
