One of ChangeTower's core features is sending email notifications when a change has been detected. Those who are using our iOS app can enable and receive push notifications on their iOS devices as soon as a change is detected on the page they're monitoring.
In this article, we're going to outline steps to set up audible alerts for detected changes by harnessing the power of ChangeTower's integration with Zapier. Sound notifications will be received through Vybit - Vybit sends personalized sound notifications that you create by recording or choosing from thousands of available sounds.
Whether you're a professional keeping tabs on critical updates or an enthusiast following your passions, this article will help you enhance your online experience and keep you in the loop on critical updates to websites you're monitoring.
