      They have some notes about this on the site. Look for the FAQ.

    I love getting Prowl on my iPod Touch. I know immediately that the five backups I run nightly have been successful or not.

    I installed Growl way back,and i didn`t notice any difference at all.
    I wondered what i was suppose to do. I went to the website,and read about.
    It was suppose to give you notification`s,and it said it runs quietly in the background. Nothing happened at all. So i scrapped it?
