Legacy Blynk Question - Notifications

I doubt very much whether it’s possible to “recover” the previous functionality, as Google has discontinued the GCM service.
It would conceivably be possible to re-write the local server source code to use the replacement FCM service, then re-compile the code into a Java executable. But, it seems unlikely that the legacy app would work with FCM, and the app source code is unavailable.

Using a 3rd party solution such as Pushover is probably the simplest solution.

I tried to find some guide on the net how to do it but with poor results. Is there an option for some direction. Thanks in advance

How to do what?

how to compile pushover.api with blynk app

That makes no sense.
Pushover is a separate app, it can’t be “compiled” with the Blynk legacy app.

Here’s a nice tutorial about ESP8266 and Pushover:

Just to add to this - I signed up to pushover and asked Microsoft Copilot to do the code for me. It wrote code to put on the blynk server (in my case running on a raspberry pi). The python code monitors those pins that you specify and then sends alerts to your phone via the pushover app.

I just had to give Copilot the token keys etc for my particular setup and it wrote the lot.
