I think you may be confusing BIT alerts with BI alerts? BIT does not give push notifications for motion alerts, the only alerts it will give is via the Watchdog.

Ok tnx for that info.

So I need Alexa to get push notification up and running?

What are you trying to accomplish? Blue Iris Tools, Alexa and Blue Iris are 3 different things

What I want:
On motion detection a push message to my phone.

What I saw in the setup that adding phones is done through Alexa

added two screenshots of my setup.

Push notifications sent to a phone based on motion is accomplished by setting it all up in Blue Iris.....period.
No Alexa or Bitools required.
It's all in the help file. Find an online translator to run the help file through.
