RecallPing: Notification Log

Notification history and log: search notifications, find missed ones. On-device.

RecallPing is a notification saver, notification log and notification history in one. After you grant notification access, it keeps what your phone receives, so you can search notifications, find missed notifications and read them again. Your history stays on this device.

Find it by what it said.

Full-text search across your whole history, and it's free. Use quoted phrases, AND, OR, NOT, or a word start like bank*. No more scrolling app after app to find the message you need.

Or narrow it down first.

Filter by app, by date range, or by type: codes, deliveries, promotions and more. Types come from the category each app declares, with on-device rules for the rest.

Pin what matters, keep it for good.

Pin the code, the confirmation or the address you'll need again. Pinned notifications stay in your history past the 30-day window, even on the free plan.

Sorted by sender.

Senders are grouped into banking, social, shopping, delivery, utilities and work, so you can browse by who is messaging you, not just search for words.

Read without opening the source app.

Reading your history never opens the app that sent a notification. Only the Open action does that.

Mute the noise.

Mute an app, a keyword, or set an after-hours window. Matching notifications are hidden from your Log. A starter rule hides "Screenshot saved"; quiet hours are off until you add them.

Locked behind your own lock.

Turn on app lock and RecallPing asks for your fingerprint, face or phone PIN before it opens, even when your phone is already unlocked. App lock is free.

Stays on this phone.

Notification text lives in RecallPing's private database on your phone. It is never sent in an ad request or a diagnostics report. The app uses the internet only for ads and for Firebase crash and usage diagnostics, which carry no notification content.

Conversations and edits.

Chat messages that Android marks as a conversation open as one thread, with sender avatars. When a notification is edited, each earlier version is kept as a revision.

If capture stops.

RecallPing tries to reconnect on its own. If it can't, it posts an alert (when notifications are allowed). Setup checks the settings RecallPing needs, but it can't identify every cause. Notifications that arrive while it is stopped cannot be recovered.

Free and Pro.

Free keeps 30 days of history plus anything you pin, and shows a banner ad. RecallPing Pro is a one-time purchase: unlimited history, per-app retention, export to CSV or text, and no banner. No subscription.

RecallPing is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to WhatsApp, Meta, or any messaging service whose notifications it records.
