notifier
One who informs
A notifier is a person or thing that notifies—that is, informs or gives notice.
In everyday contexts, it might be someone who alerts others to news or events.
In computing and software, a notifier is typically a component that sends alerts or updates: The app's notifier pinged me about the delivery.
