A lightweight autorefresher and page monitor.
Auto Refresh Nano Extension
Automatically refresh your page with advanced monitoring features.
This lightweight auto-refresher quietly reloads your webpage at set intervals, monitoring for a specific phrase to appear or disappear. It stops once it finds what you need and sends you a Chrome notification—keeping things simple and efficient, without unnecessary extras.
Latest Version: 1.3
You can now monitor for words that disappear from the page on refresh!
Fixed notification bugs.
Removed the sound file (it wasn’t playing anyway due to browser security settings).
Previous Versions:
1.2 – Interval value now saved between sessions (you’ll need to run at least one auto-refresh to save it). Added a 'randomness' toggle to randomize the refresh interval by up to 10%. Start/Stop Refresher is now a single toggleable button.
1.1 – Updated with alert, dark mode, background refresh.
1.0 – Initial release.
This is an open-source project. You can view the source code here:
