Auto Refresh Plus enhances Page Monitor by adding more precise control and automated actions when changes are detected. It allows you to focus on specific areas of a webpage, highlight detected keywords, automatically scroll to matched content, and even trigger actions like auto-clicking. These features are designed for users who need faster response, better visibility, and deeper control over how monitoring behaves on dynamic or complex pages.
Auto Refresh Plus allows you to monitor changes within a specific section of a webpage instead of scanning the entire page. This improves accuracy and helps avoid false alerts caused by unrelated content updates.
You can define a custom monitoring area using a CSS selector or by selecting the exact element directly from the page. Once configured, the extension will only analyze that selected section during each refresh cycle. This is useful when a webpage contains multiple dynamic sections but you only want to track a specific part, such as a product container, stock status, price section, or notification area.
For example, on a product listing page, you can limit monitoring to the availability section instead of scanning the entire page. This ensures alerts are triggered only when relevant content changes.
This setting can be configured per page from the extension popup, allowing each URL to have its own targeted monitoring area.
Configuration
Auto Refresh Plus allows you to visually highlight detected keywords directly on the webpage. When a monitored keyword is found or lost based on the selected monitoring mode, the extension marks the matched text so you can instantly locate it.
This makes it easier to confirm detections without manually searching through the page, especially on large or complex pages. The feature is particularly useful for pages with multiple listings, long content sections, or dense layouts where finding the keyword manually would take time.
This option can be enabled per page from the extension popup, allowing you to use highlighting only where visual confirmation is needed.
Configuration
Auto Refresh Plus allows you to automatically scroll to the location where a monitored keyword is detected. When the keyword appears, the page instantly moves to that position so you can view the matched content without searching manually.
This is especially useful on long pages with multiple listings, products, or large content sections where locating the keyword would otherwise take time. For example, if a product becomes available and the keyword "In Stock" appears within a large grid, the page will automatically scroll to that exact location.
This option can be enabled per page from the extension popup or set globally from General Settings for all monitored pages.
Configuration
Auto Refresh Plus allows you to automatically click a detected keyword when it appears on the page, if it is part of a clickable element such as a button or link.
When enabled, the extension instantly performs the click action as soon as the keyword is detected, removing the need for manual interaction. This feature is useful when you need to react immediately to events. For example, if a “Buy Now” or “Add to Cart” button appears on a product page, the extension can automatically click it the moment it becomes available.
This adds automation to Page Monitor and helps you respond faster to events such as product restocks, ticket releases, or limited-time offers.

Refresh Controls
Auto Refresh Plus includes all tools related to managing how and when a webpage refreshes, offering options such as predefined intervals, custom timing, random refresh patterns, countdown timers, and refresh limits. These controls allow you to fine-tune refresh behavior based on your needs, whether you want consistent updates, controlled timing, or more dynamic refresh patterns, giving you full flexibility and precise control over how the extension operates.
URL & Tab Automation
Auto Refresh Plus extends refresh controls with advanced automation features that manage how specific URLs and browser tabs behave during refresh cycles. It allows you to automatically start refresh on selected URLs, manage active tabs, handle URL changes and redirections, and detect conditions such as captchas or error pages. These features are designed for more advanced use cases, giving you greater control and automation over multiple tabs and dynamic browsing scenarios beyond basic interval-based refreshing.
Page Monitor
Auto Refresh Plus adds intelligent monitoring on top of refresh controls, allowing you to detect changes on a webpage based on keywords, expressions, or content updates. Instead of simply refreshing at intervals, it enables the extension to react to specific conditions such as text appearing, disappearing, or changing, making it ideal for tracking availability, price updates, notifications, or dynamic content. With multiple monitoring modes, detection methods, and advanced options, it provides precise control over when and how actions should be triggered during the refresh process.
Alerts & Notifications
Auto Refresh Plus keep you informed when a monitored event occurs by delivering instant updates through multiple channels. Whether it’s a keyword detection, page change, captcha, or error condition, you can receive alerts via browser notifications, email, webhook integrations, or automatic window focus. These features ensure you never miss important updates and can respond quickly, even when the tab is inactive or running in the background.
