Opsgenie

Mobile client for Opsgenie incident response

Opsgenie is an incident management platform for services that run around the clock, aimed at Dev and Ops teams. The Android app is its mobile client, covering alerts, incidents, known issues and on-call duty when you are away from a desk.

The developer says access requires a subscription to the Opsgenie service, though the Android app itself is free for Opsgenie customers. Your Opsgenie administrator sends an email invite, and you create your account from it. After that you sign in with your Opsgenie username and password.

Getting alerts and incidents on your phone

The app sends push notifications when new alerts or incidents arise. The listing also says Opsgenie notifies users by email, SMS and voice calls, so a notice can reach you through more than one channel.

Acting on incidents from the app

You can take action on alerts and incidents directly inside the app, without opening a laptop. The listing does not specify which actions are available, only that they can be taken from the app.

The app also shows the status of all known issues, so you can see what is already tracked before responding to a new notification.

Managing on-call duty on mobile

The app lets you manage your on-call responsibilities from your phone. Combined with push alerts, this is the part of the app aimed at keeping a responder reachable and informed during an outage.

The developer points to separate online documentation for the Android app at docs.opsgenie.com, where further detail is provided.
