Auto refresh tabs, monitor page changes, and get local alerts when text, numbers, prices, or elements change. AutoRefreshPage is a private, flexible auto refresh and page monitor extension for Chrome. Automatically reload the current page, multiple selected tabs, every tab from the same website, or all tabs in a window—then receive local alerts when something important changes. Whether you are waiting for an appointment, product restock, price drop, ticket availability, new job listing, dashboard update, auction result, or status change, AutoRefreshPage keeps checking the page so you do not have to press refresh repeatedly. KEY FEATURES • Automatically refresh the current tab • Refresh selected tabs, same-domain tabs, or all tabs • Use fixed or randomized refresh intervals • Choose quick presets or enter a custom interval • Perform a normal refresh or hard refresh that bypasses cache • Pause, resume, stop, or refresh immediately • Stop automatically after a chosen number of refreshes • See the countdown until the next page reload • Save different refresh settings for individual tabs • Restore active refresh jobs after Chrome restarts • Stagger multi-tab refreshes to avoid reloading everything simultaneously PAGE CHANGE MONITORING AutoRefreshPage can monitor an entire page or only the specific content you care about. Select an element visually by clicking it on the page, or enter a CSS selector manually for advanced control. The extension can monitor: • Text changes • Numbers and counters • Product prices • Element appearance or disappearance • Number of matching elements • Selected element attributes • Keywords appearing or disappearing • Any meaningful change within a selected page area SMART CONDITIONS Create precise alerts instead of being notified about every small page update. You can receive an alert when: • Selected text changes • A word or phrase appears or disappears • A number increases or decreases • A value becomes greater or lower than a threshold • A price drops below your target • An element appears or is removed • The number of matching items changes • A custom text pattern is matched AutoRefreshPage establishes the first detected value as a baseline, compares future results against it, and shows what changed. REDUCE UNWANTED ALERTS Dynamic websites often change timestamps, counters, formatting, advertisements, or other irrelevant content. AutoRefreshPage includes controls that help reduce false notifications: • Ignore whitespace differences • Ignore uppercase and lowercase differences • Ignore selected text patterns • Require a change to remain present across multiple checks • Apply an alert cooldown • Prevent duplicate alerts until the condition clears • Recover selected elements when a website slightly changes its layout LOCAL NOTIFICATIONS When your condition is matched, AutoRefreshPage can: • Show a Chrome desktop notification • Display a visual alert inside the page • Highlight the changed element • Scroll directly to the changed content • Focus the monitored tab • Play a local alert sound • Pause or stop refreshing automatically • Continue monitoring for additional changes PROTECT YOUR WORK Automatic refreshing should never interrupt something important. When page access is enabled, AutoRefreshPage can postpone a reload while you are: • Typing in a field • Editing a form • Using a content editor • Interacting with the page The refresh resumes after the configured quiet period. MANAGE MULTIPLE REFRESH JOBS The built-in dashboard provides one place to view and control all active page refresh and monitoring jobs. See: • Current status • Page and domain • Refresh interval • Last and next refresh time • Refresh count • Monitoring condition • Detected changes and errors Pause, resume, stop, or apply settings to multiple tabs without visiting each page individually. LOCAL CHANGE HISTORY Review detected changes directly inside the extension, including: • Previous and new values • Date and time of the change • Page URL and title • Highlighted text differences • Numeric changes • Alert and action results Configuration and history can be exported locally as JSON or CSV. PRIVATE BY DESIGN AutoRefreshPage works locally inside your browser. • No account required • No backend service • No analytics or tracking • No advertisements • No page content uploaded • No external API calls • No remotely loaded code • No selling or sharing of browsing data The extension requests access only when a feature needs to read or interact with a website. Basic tab refreshing does not require access to page content. All refresh settings, selected values, and change history remain stored locally on your device and can be deleted at any time. IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS Monitoring works only while Chrome and the monitored tab remain available. AutoRefreshPage cannot monitor websites while your computer is turned off. Chrome may delay very short timers when tabs are inactive, the computer is sleeping, or browser power-saving features are active. Fast refresh intervals are therefore best effort. Chrome also prevents extensions from operating on protected pages such as chrome:// pages, Chrome settings, and the Chrome Web Store. Stop pressing refresh. Let AutoRefreshPage reload your tabs, watch the content that matters, and alert you when something changes.
