Simple Tab Reloader

Refresh your tabs, without all those annoying features

What is Simple Tab Reloader?

Simple Tab Reloader is a streamlined and straightforward Chrome extension aimed at providing users a simpler way to auto-refresh their tabs. This tool is quite easy to use. You just need to set the interval you desire and the tab will be refreshed automatically according to the set time. Not only that, but the set time interval can be synced across your Google account. To enhance privacy, this extension does not demand any permissions nor does it collect any user or analytics data. It also has a counter indicating when the next reload is due.

Every automatic tab reloader asks for either way too many permissions or is just a big mess to use. So, I decided to create my own and share it with you!

Simple Tab Reloader is easy to use, just choose which reload interval you want and hit start. The tab you were on when you hit start will be reloaded at the interval you set, even if you move to another tab.

Now ManifestV3 compliant! Please excuse the dust as I work out any possible bugs.

Highlighted Features:

Super easy to use, input a time and hit start
Reload interval syncs across your google account
Counter for when the next reload is
Requires no permissions to install (Protects your privacy)
Collects no user data / no analytics data

Quick, easy, effective, no permissions needed. Lovely. Option to hard refresh might be nice.

I appreciate the simplicity, but maybe it's a bit too simple. There's no indication of whether a tab is set to reload or not, you would have to go into each tab and click the extension to find out. Which, sadly, makes this hard to recommend. But I appreciate the concept for sure.
