PagePulse - Tab Auto Refresh 作者： Evan Kahacho

Stop babysitting tabs waiting for a page to change.

PagePulse automatically reloads a page on a fixed interval or within a random range while watching for something specific to appear. Tell it what you are waiting for, a keyword or phrase, and let PagePulse handle the repetitive checking. When the match appears, it stops reloading, highlights the first match on the page, sends a system notification, and can optionally play a notification sound.

What PagePulse does

• Auto refresh: Reload a page at a fixed interval, from every second up to 24 hours.
• Randomised intervals: Use a range such as 8 - 15 seconds to introduce natural variation between reloads.
• Keyword watching: Search the visible text of the page for a keyword or phrase after each reload.
• Automatic stop: Stop as soon as the target text is found.
• Match highlighting: Highlight the first matching occurrence directly on the page.
• Notifications: Display a system notification, and 0ptionally play a sound when a match is found.
• Per-page settings: Remember configurations independently for different pages, even when they are visited in the same tab.
• Light and dark themes: Follow your system preference by default, with the option to change and remember your choice.

Example Uses

Use PagePulse to watch for:

• A product coming back in stock
• An application or exam result changing
• A booking or appointment slot becoming available
• A status changing on a dashboard
• A page updating with information you're waiting for

You can also use PagePulse as a straightforward auto-refresher when you don't need keyword monitoring.
