About DEAD SIMPLE REFRESH

reload the active browser tab on a schedule. what it does: - set any interval from 5 seconds to 1 hour, or pick a preset (30s, 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h) - optional repeat count. stop after N reloads, or leave blank to run forever - optional hard refresh to bypass the browser cache - per-tab control. refreshing one tab does not affect any other - live countdown to the next reload in the popup, plus a counter on the toolbar icon how it works: click the toolbar icon. pick the interval. hit start. the popup shows a status banner with a live mm:ss countdown. when a page is mid-load, the countdown pauses until the page finishes, plus a 2.5 second settle delay, so your timer measures viewing time, not loading time. click stop to end early, or close the tab to cancel automatically. permissions: - tabs: identify and reload the active tab, detect tab close - storage: remember your settings and per-tab state - alarms: schedule the timed reloads
