| 2024-08-13 |  | | en | Have just set up. Worried about the chrome best practices notification however. Why is this message showing? More stars if this message wasn't worrying me. |

| 2024-04-25 |  | | en | Amazing tool with tons of customization options, does what you tell it to do. UI and UX could, however, be improved here and there. For example, tracker settings would be better displayed as a context menu instead of just a row of icons. Notifications and sound alerts need to be configured for each tracker separately using actions, it's not possible to edit this on a group level or globally. Templates aren't very intuitive, it's not really clear what settings are contained in a template and it currently just "creates" a template out of every tracker. It would be nice if there was a way to store a template with actions, conditions, etc. and being able to edit it so when it's updated, it updates all trackers using that template. Currently, if I need to change an action I have to manually edit each tracker one by one which kind of defeats the purpose of this tool (saving time) 😅 Regardless, this is a great extension, hope to see it getting updates and improvements. Love the Discord integration especially! Would also love to see an iOS/Android app so it's not required to have a PC/laptop on at all times in order to keep monitoring 😬 |

| 2024-02-10 |  | | en | Very useful especially given that it is free. Can take a little while to work out how to use it properly though, so some suggestions for any that want to try it out: 1. Before you create any trackers, create some Groups (ie folders) by clicking on the + icon. If you don't do this you will have base level trackers and it is not all that clear how to access / edit these 2. A lot of functionality is revealed by right clicking on a Group (e.g. create sub group, view / edit those mysterious baseline trackers as above) 3. Add a tracker by right clicking on a web page (or some highlighted content) > Track Content 4. Many options when you Track Content. For example you can Add Condition such that only get alerted when the page changes more than 5% for example (useful for those pages which have tiny automatic changes like the date etc). In the Add Action section, I find enabling the Show Difference option useful as then you can see what has changed Apart from those little quirks (perhaps the instructions that go with the extension could be updated?), it is pretty straightforward to use and very handy (plus free!) |

| 2023-08-11 |  | | I love it. I've used several (free) standalone tools to monitor webpage changes, and none of them worked consistently or notifications never came through. PageProbe seems to be working exactly as designed. It's got so many configuration options, you can really fine-tune your trackers and notifications. Thanks again for this awesome extension. | |
