As an old-time user of the Hooks app (https://www.producthunt.com/tech...), I'm excited about this. I'm thinking I'm gonna tell this bot to keep me up to date on the alerts that I care the most about, while keeping all the others (I have more than I'm willing to admit!) in the app.

Hooks bot looks interesting. The killer feature will be to add it as an IFTTT channel!

Hooks Bot is the easiest way to stay up to date on anything through FB Messenger. Whether you’re into news, sports, tv, music, video games, social networks, meet-ups, food or a bit of everything, Hooks Bot makes it simple to stay in the know.

@erictwillis where does the news/content come from?
Oleg Kozynenko
Hi @chrismessina, we are also the makers of https://www.producthunt.com/tech.... The content comes from apis, agreements and some scraping.

@erictwillis Like the concept, and sorry for asking this, but why should I use this and not Facebook's news feed? To get reports as they happen or newsflashes while I'm on chat?
Oleg Kozynenko
@haimpekel that's right, with Hooks bot you will get notified at the exact same time something happens e.g. "Paul Graham just posted a tweet" or "Your app just got a new review on the App Store".

It just kept sending a million messages asking what I wanted to subscribe to so I had to block it...
Oleg Kozynenko
@rodrigoreis22 @phocks fixed, sorry about that

I added a bunch of alerts, and now my phone is buzzing once every few seconds with a notification, is there a way to stop or remove some of the alerts? I don't see an edit feature. I've tried 'stop', 'remove' and 'unsubscribe' but nothing works with this bot. I don't want to have to block it.
Oleg Kozynenko
@aspunjabi Hi, just type /start or just say Hi, then choose "My Notifications" from the menu, there you can see all the subscriptions you have and delete them. Let me know if this works for you. Thanks!

How do I add tweet notifications? What about Instagram? Thanks and good job!
Oleg Kozynenko
@esbvn there are both, but we still need to polish the bot interface for that, you can use the search to find the popular ones, but no way to customize it for now...(you can always use Hooks app for that:))

Wow! I've been using the hooks app, and this is a great addition to get the notifications in one place (with all the other bots).

hook has gone wild. The notification for which topic you want to get notification keeps comming and comming. I have reseaved 100 messages. What wrong?
Oleg Kozynenko
@unique_maharzan sorry about that, fixing it now... [edit] fixed now

I love Hooks and use it everyday, but not sure if I would use the bot, personally I don't like messenger. But it's awesome to see that Hooks team is working on new things and constantly improving :)

Is the Hooks Bot still online? It doesn't reply to me. 😥
