while not from C#, I've been using Pushover for custom notifications for a good while now https://pushover.net/
Pushover makes it easy to get real-time notifications on your Android, iPhone, iPad, and Desktop (Android Wear and Apple Watch, too!)

the pricing is really nice https://pushover.net/pricing
To use Pushover for yourself or a small group, it's just a $5 USD one-time purchase on each platform (iPhone/iPad, Android, and Desktop) where you want to receive Pushover notifications. You can try it out free for 30 days by downloading our iPhone/iPad or Android apps, or by using our Desktop app right from your browser.

There are no subscription fees for individuals using Pushover.

yeah I'm looking for something that send a push notification or whatever on my iPhone, at the moment I solved by using a TelegramBot that send a message to me since all solutions I found were only for Android :/ but I think this Pushover is similar to Pushbullet but it seems it works also for iOS awesome do you mean not from C#?

It's a very simple API, which is part of why I like it so much No complicated flow, just one endpoint to POST to
