+# prowl
+
+(Prowl)[1] is a push notification service for iOS devices.  Netdata
+supprots delivering notifications to iOS devices through Prowl.
+
+Because of how Netdata integrates with Prowl, there is a hard limit of
+at most 1000 notifications per hour (starting from the first notification
+sent).  Any alerts beyond the first thousand in an hour will be dropped.
+
+Warning messages will be sent with the 'High' priority, critical messages
+will be sent with the 'Emergency' priority, and all other messages will
+be sent with the normal priority.  Opening the notification's associated
+URL will take you to the Netdata dashboard of the system that issued
+the alert, directly to the chart that it triggered on.
+
+## configuration
+
+To use this, you will need a Prowl API key, which can be rquested through
+the Prowl website after registering.
+
+Once you have an API key, simply specify that as a recipient for Prowl
+notifications.
