Fantastic app and still worth using years later
I picked up Prowl when it was first released and was quite ecstatic about the ability to get notifications from my Mac on my iPhone. It was extremely handy for notifying me when that large download was complete or when the video file I wanted to play on my iPhone and as finished converting.
Since then, Apple has added notification support to the Mac, negating the need for Growl for a lot of users. But it still remains the most adaptive method for getting notifications on a great deal of tasks and applications. There was a fear at the back of my mind, though, that one day Prowl would simply vanish and stop working. Growl itself has found a niche and is still enticing developers to support it, but Prowl hadnt been updated in some time, especially visually.
Imagine my surprise when, the day after I had just reconfigured Growl and Prowl on a new machine, I saw an update for Prowl that brought it visually inline with iOS 7 & 8! It wasnt dying after all! In fact, its better than ever, and just as useful.
I cant recommend this app enough, and hope that its still around for years more to come.
