Exit Alerts

Pause before you leave. Exit Alerts adds a confirmation step to help prevent accidental navigation away from pages you want to keep open. It includes a preset for ChatGPT Temporary Chat URLs and lets you add your own protected pages. FEATURES • Protect a specific path and its query parameters, or an entire site. • Start with the ChatGPT temporary-chat=true URL preset. Ordinary ChatGPT URLs are excluded by default. • Confirm ordinary same-tab link clicks before the page's navigation handler runs. • Confirm cancellable in-page URL changes. • Request Chrome's built-in warning for tab closing, reloading, and address-bar navigation. • Add the current URL, remove rules, and turn protection on or off from the popup. • Store URL rules locally in your browser. No analytics or conversation storage. On chatgpt.com, in-page confirmations start with “Before You Go.” Chrome controls the wording, buttons, and appearance of its own close/reload warning; the extension cannot customize it. HOW TO USE Open the extension popup, read the site-access explanation, and choose Enable ChatGPT protection. Allow access when Chrome asks; protection is inactive until then. Click or type in the page once so Chrome can activate its built-in exit warning. Add other URLs from the popup and grant access when Chrome asks. IMPORTANT LIMITS Exit Alerts is a warning tool, not a backup. Protection depends on the saved URL matching the current page. The temporary-chat preset requires temporary-chat=true in the URL. It cannot recover data that an app has already cleared, stop every Back/Forward action, or prevent crashes, forced shutdown, or actions that clear content without navigating. Website changes and other extensions may affect coverage. Exit Alerts is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by OpenAI or Google.
