Alerts whereyou can be reached.
The iPhone and iPad app (iOS 17 or later) is in the App Store. Windows is further down.
Windows
Alerts as a window above the taskbar, critical ones as a continuous tone until acknowledged. No background service and no browser.
The installer is available after you sign in. You need the account anyway to pair the device.

Windows in detail
Compare the checksum
The file is not signed. Instead of trusting a certificate you can do the arithmetic yourself: the SHA-256 value below belongs to the file we built. If it matches your download, nothing was changed on the way.
Check it in PowerShell
Get-FileHash .\Pagerdeck_1.0.0_x64-setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256If the value differs, delete the file and download it again. If it stays that way, write to us.
Windows warns on first start
Opening it brings up "Windows protected your PC". SmartScreen does not know the publisher yet because the file is not signed. Compare the checksum before opening it.
Click More info, then Run anyway.
We do not have a code signing certificate yet; once it pays off, we will sign the file. The checksum shows that your file matches the one on this server. It is served from that same server, though: someone who takes over the server can replace the file and the checksum together, and the checksum does not protect against that.
Requirements
- Windows 10 from version 1809 or Windows 11, 64 bit in both cases
- WebView2, included in Windows 11 and supplied by the installer otherwise
- A PagerDeck account and a pairing code from the dashboard
- An outbound connection to api.pagerdeck.com on port 443
What the app can do and what it cannot
Alerts appear as a window in the bottom right corner, even while Focus Assist suppresses notifications. Critical alerts keep sounding until they are acknowledged.
The app cannot wake a machine that is switched off. It holds the connection open itself instead of using a push service, and the state of that connection is shown in the footer of the window.
Anyone relying on alerts for safety-critical purposes operates a second, independent path. That holds for every alerting tool, this one included.
Licence
The licence terms are shown during the installation and are installed alongside the application as a file. So are the licences of the third party components.
Pair your device
- Create a pairing code under Devices in the dashboard.
- Enter the code in the app and give the device a name.
- Send a test alert and check that it arrives.
The code is valid for 60 seconds and can be redeemed exactly once.
