❗ Update: April 15th, 2024 We maintained PageMonitor since 2015 supporting every Chrome upgrade in that time. Regrettably Google is discontinuing SQL and, in spite of our best efforts, we are unable to deploy a version that is compatible with the new versions of Chrome.

▶️ Page monitoring going forward: To continue monitoring pages, please install our latest Visualping.io extension to: https://visualping.io/chrome-extension/

In this version, the Browser tab allows has the same functionality as PageMonitor and is free.

We are working on a new upgrade of Visualping's extension planned to be released this summer and it will be packed with the most up to date technology to allow you to monitor pages for free using your browser.

♻️ Migration We apologize for any inconvenience caused by data migration issues as we worked through Google’s discontinuation of WebSQL support. Please avoid closing your browser or triggering a chrome version upgrade until you attempt to migrate.

Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact. If you have any needs, please contact us via the following contacts Whatsapp: +1 (248) 896‑8035 Telegram: t.me/harryysandersonn

Shame this has died with the removal of WebSQL. I've been able to download & modify the extension to work with localStorage (only a few functions need changing in base.js) without much hassle if anyone from Visualping is interested? The only problem with be needing to move to Manifest v3 in the future. But as it stands, I have this extension fully working without using WebSQL. Previous Review: Still working well for me in 2023. The best thing is the ability to use CSS-style selectors to narrow the check down to specific area(s) of the page.. that makes it get 5 stars from me. Works great!
