Over the weekend when @jonny-clearwater and I were filming hots or shots he mentioned to me about one of the @blockbrothers wanting one of the 2017 Steem Silver Rounds. The following morning @jonny-clearwater put the three of us in a chat on Discord and the deal went down.
After talking a little more to @eqko he told me about the Steemify app, which I had not heard about yet. After inquiring about it here is what he said.
Steemify is an app (currently on iOS only, but Android is coming soon) that enables push notifications to your phone. It does not require any of your keys at all.

You can get notifications on as many accounts as you want and you can select the notifications you want to receive. If you want to reply to one of the notifications through Steemify you can log in with your posting key as it uses the native Safari browser and reply or browse.

You have the ability to get notified whenever there is any action on the selected accounts. Below are the individual notifications can be selected for each account:

I have only been using the app for a few days, but I am hooked already!
Witness Vote
On a related note, if you have not given @blockbrothers a witness vote you need to! They have missed ZERO blocks since becoming a witness! Currently, only two other witnesses ranked ahead of them have not missed any blocks since becoming a witness! This group has some sweet things coming down the pike! Check them out and give them a vote!!
STEEMIFY...changed the game for me!!!!!! thanks for this post!!!!
I’m in love man!! It’s incredibly useful!!
That is great app. I will wait for the steemify android app. This app will surely reduce the stress of me looking for who replied my comment. Good work
Yes! And I love it that you c an get notified when you are mentioned in a post!
Thanks for sharing will check it out. Sound like just the thing I have been wanting.
It’s incredible dude! I’m obsessed! Like I didn’t have to check Steemit online. I just got a notification that you replied and was able to respond through the browser in the app
True. I need it too but on android.
I use Steemify from the beginning and it has never let me down. You can also see who you are starting to follow and who is no longer following. It is really a fantastic app and to be honest, I can not miss this app anymore.
Yes you are exactly right! I didn’t realize how awesome it was until downloading and using it!
@bennierex is the man
Honored to have him as my partner in the arcade.
I think the @blockbrothers as a whole are great guys and definitely deserving of your witness vote
I am so pumped for this arcade to come out!! I agree that they deserve a witness vote! They are bringing some great ideas and services to the platform!!
Thanks for the incredibly kind words man. I’m glad you like it so much that you’d post about it. It keeps surprising me how ‘few’ people know of it yet. But i’ll keep sharing and asking if people know about and use it. And I usually get reactions like yours. Supercool.
And thanks for the witness support. Votes for our witness @blockbrothers go a long way in supporting our efforts to bring cool stuff to the blockchain.
It shows you how “large” yet small Steemit really is. It’s just like the silver coin! Some people still haven’t heard of it after hundreds of posts by many different users!
For sure !! ... Steem was already sizable when I joined but with the last months it’s grown considerable. When the Silver round arrives I’ll be sure to write a post about it so that will add to the hundreds aiding in the silver round project, just like yours adds to and helps our efforts. Thx again.
You're right about that! I am heading to the post office as we speak! Tracking info will be sent soon!!
I've been using it since december and it really is awesome. I can't wait for the Android version too.
I wish I knew about it before! It’s a game changer in my opinion!
Thanks for mentioning! We hope to be able to do many more nice things. In the meantime, enjoy Steemify!
You're welcome!! From what I have heard, you guys should be able to!
This app is great! I just downloaded it, I can finally see whats going with Steemit! Thanks for the tip!
It really is awesome! I hope you don’t get too addicted! Lol
Looks sweet dude! Fortunately, I don't have an iphone (see what I did there?) so I'll have to wait for the android version. I was curious if you've used ginabot and how it compares/which you like better?
You mean unfortunately I believe... :D haha jk! I haven't used Ginabot before so I cannot compare the two! I may need to get it to try it out!
Team android 4lyfe, haha. Yea man, give it a try and do a post on which you like better. Which I guess if you use both it could really drive you crazy getting duplicate notifications, but you could see if there's any sort of speed difference as well.
Have you used Ginabot before!? I think there is about a 1 minute delay with Steemify!
Damn, that's not bad at all. Yessir, I've been using it for probably a month or so now and absolutely love it. Which I didn't have anything for notifications before, so I'm sure that's part of it. But it does all your basic stuff Steemify does - mentions, replies to comments/posts, transfers. It has a few other options but that's mostly what I use it for. Definitely a game changer, especially since I didn't have anything before.
The signup process was much simpler with Steemify for sure! I will let you know!!
Off to a good start, haha. Sounds good man!
Yessir! I will keep you updated!
