Display Name

If you enter a name here, it will be displayed on the Inbox Title Bar and the User List (next to the Inbox) instead of their Username. This can be useful where you use Usernames that are difficult to read. For example, you might use the user's full name including any middle names. This could be quite cumbersome, especially if they have a long last name like Snuffleupagus.

|

The Pushover email address is a more flexible option than using the Device Name. One of the reasons is users can have their own Pushover account instead of you having to use a business account.
