HookTap is an iOS, macOS, and Windows app that receives HTTP POST webhook requests and delivers them as real-time push notifications to your devices. No server or registration required — open the app, copy your URL, and you're live in under 2 minutes.

A webhook is an automated HTTP POST request triggered by an event in a service (e.g. GitHub, Stripe, Zapier). HookTap receives it and forwards it as a push notification to your iPhone within seconds.

Do I need programming knowledge to use HookTap?

No. With tools like Zapier, Make, n8n, or GitHub Actions you just paste your HookTap URL. For cURL scripts, minimal knowledge helps, but is not required.

Yes. The free plan includes 1 webhook URL, real-time push notifications, and up to 20 events in the feed — forever. Pro plans start at $0.99/month or $24.99 for lifetime access.

Where is my data stored?

Events are stored on servers in Berlin, Germany, protected by GDPR. Your webhook URL is cryptographically unique and not guessable. Your account and all data can be deleted at any time.

Can I share a webhook with my team?

Yes. Generate an 8-character share code in the app (valid 15 minutes) and teammates can redeem it to receive the same push notifications on their own devices. Access can be revoked at any time.

What platforms does HookTap support?

HookTap supports iPhone (iOS 16+), Mac (macOS 13+), and Windows 10+. All platforms sync in real time through the same backend.

How does HookTap compare to Discord or Slack webhooks?

Unlike Discord or Slack, HookTap is purpose-built for webhook receiving. It gives you full payload inspection, an event history log, multiple delivery modes (push, feed, widget), and works without a team account or chat platform.

Webhook Use Cases: 7 Ways Developers Monitor Events in Real Time

Hooktap Is More Than a Debugging Tool

Many developers start using Hooktap to debug webhooks. But quickly, it becomes something more: a real-time event radar for everything that matters in your systems.

If it sends a webhook, Hooktap can notify you.

Here are seven practical ways developers use Hooktap every day.

1. Payment Monitoring (Stripe, Paddle, Lemon Squeezy)

Problem: A payment succeeds, but the webhook fails - users don’t get access.

With Hooktap:
Get notified instantly when payments succeed, fail, or are refunded.

Result:
Fix issues before customers notice.

2. CI/CD Pipeline Alerts (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket)

Problem: A deployment fails overnight and nobody notices.

With Hooktap:
Receive real-time alerts for failed builds or deployments.

Result:
Ship with confidence and react immediately.

3. Automation Monitoring (Zapier, Make, n8n)

Problem: Automations silently stop running.

With Hooktap:
Get notified when workflows fail or stop sending events.

Result:
Keep business-critical automations running.

4. Real-Time Lead Notifications

Problem: New leads sit unnoticed in your database.

With Hooktap:
Receive a notification whenever a form is submitted.

Result:
Respond faster and increase conversion rates.

5. IoT & Sensor Monitoring

Problem: Devices stop sending data without warning.

With Hooktap:
Get alerts when expected events stop arriving.

Result:
Detect outages before they escalate.

6. Security & Suspicious Activity Alerts

Problem: Suspicious login attempts go unnoticed.

With Hooktap:
Get notified about unusual activity in real time.

Result:
Respond faster to potential threats.

7. E-Commerce Events (Orders, Refunds, Stock Alerts)

Problem: Critical shop events get buried in dashboards.

With Hooktap:
Receive instant alerts for orders, refunds, or stock changes.

Result:
Stay on top of your store without constant monitoring.

Turn Events Into Awareness

Modern systems are event-driven. But events only matter if you see them.

Hooktap ensures you know what’s happening - the moment it happens.

Stay in Control

From payments to security alerts, Hooktap helps developers stay informed, responsive, and in control.

Because when systems talk, you should be listening.
