Page Monitor Extension

❗ Update: April 15th, 2024
We maintained PageMonitor since 2015 supporting every Chrome upgrade in that time. Regrettably Google is discontinuing SQL and, in spite of our best efforts, we are unable to deploy a version that is compatible with the new versions of Chrome.

▶️ Page monitoring going forward:
To continue monitoring pages, please install our latest Visualping.io extension to:
https://visualping.io/chrome-extension/

In this version, the Browser tab allows has the same functionality as PageMonitor and is free.

We are working on a new upgrade of Visualping's extension planned to be released this summer and it will be packed with the most up to date technology to allow you to monitor pages for free using your browser.

♻️ Migration
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by data migration issues as we worked through Google’s discontinuation of WebSQL support. Please avoid closing your browser or triggering a chrome version upgrade until you attempt to migrate.

Detailed instructions can be found in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yb3E-xFgir4

We apologize again for all the trouble and thank you in advance for your patience as we go through this.

C'est le seul inconvénient, Merci

Tom Gray (ID: 0000002b639c36bf) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/24/2023 Simply does not do as advertised - a page was updated, and i received an alert some 15mins later, despite setting it to check for updates once every minute. Don't bother with this, it just isnt fit for purpose.

Martin (ID: 0000004cf8f4bd73) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 06/28/2023 I can't tell if it works because it somehow deleted my list of monitored pages. Three times in a row.
