About Smart Auto-Refresh & Notify

Refreshes the tab at an interval you choose – and optionally notifies you when text you specify is either found or not found on the page. Example: get alerted when the Fantasy Premier League site goes live - and get that sweet, low ID number! --- Super simple to use. Customizable refresh intervals – down to the second, minute or hour. Text change detection – the reason this was developed. Can check for specific text on the refreshed page and alert you when it appears or disappears. Waiting for a game launch? Set it to notify you when "Coming soon" disappears, so you can be among the first to log in and snag that free year's subscription. Sound alerts – activate a sound notification for when the specified text changes, so even if you're multitasking, you'll never miss an important update. Zero ads or data collection or anything like that – just a simple add-on that does the job. User-friendly interface – sleek and intuitive interface makes it a doddle to use: clearly labelled input fields and checkboxes ... and a big Start/Stop button. Test the optional audio alert before you use it. Adapts to dark or light mode. But please note: The appearance is determined by your operating system's theme settings rather than Chrome's appearance preferences. If your system is configured to use dark mode while Chrome is set to light mode, the extension will display in dark mode. It's only an issue in the Chrome version; the Firefox one follows your Firefox theme. I hope you find it useful. Enjoy. You're welcome!
