    • Specify the Value (e.g., a specific price).
    • Select an Expiration Time for the alert.
  5. Enable Push Notifications:
    • Under the "Actions" section, you will find various notification options.
    • Tick the "Push Notifications" box. This is crucial for sending the alert to your iPhone.
    • You can also choose other options like "Show on pop-up," "Send email," or "Play sound" if desired.
  6. Name Your Alert (Optional): Give your alert a descriptive name for easy identification.
  7. Create: Click the "Create" or "Done" button to activate the alert.
