It would be nice to be able to set custom app notification types. Types like:

- Doorbell ring
- Camera movement
- Error

This way we can set our own custom sounds to a notification category in Android. This way you know that some sounds you can ignore for later and some sounds you want to respond to right away.

Thanks I saw it. But I would prefer all stuff relating to the house be in one app. And Pushover is still (stable) in SDK 2.

On Android you could use Tasker to play different tones depending on the text in the notification.
