Everything you need to automate refreshing
Powerful when you need it, calm when you don't.
Precise targeting
Refresh the current tab, selected tabs, a whole window, an exact URL, or an entire domain.
Keyword monitoring
Watch for text, a regular expression, or a CSS selector — and stop, notify, or play a sound on a match.
URL rotation
Cycle one tab through a list of pages with back, forward, shuffle, and reset controls.
Element clicking
Click a button you pick instead of reloading — with strict safety limits and no arbitrary scripts.
Private by design
Everything runs locally. No account, no servers, no analytics, no ads, no remote code.

Frequently asked questions
Is autoFresh free?
Yes. The free plan covers current-tab and current-window refreshing at intervals of 30 seconds and longer. Pro unlocks short intervals, advanced scopes, schedules, keyword alerts, and more.
Does autoFresh track me or collect data?
No. autoFresh works entirely on your device. It sends no browsing data, schedules, page text, URLs, or identifiers anywhere, and it contains no analytics, ads, or remote code.
How accurate is the timing?
Schedules of 30 seconds and longer use Chrome alarms and are reliable across the browser suspending the extension. Shorter intervals use a best-effort in-page timer and can be throttled in background tabs. Timing is best-effort, not millisecond-precise.
Can I refresh a specific URL or a whole domain?
Yes. Pro adds exact-URL and domain scopes that automatically target matching tabs, plus selected-tab and full-window scopes.
Can it stop refreshing when a keyword appears?
Yes. Keyword monitoring matches plain text, a regular expression, or a CSS selector, and can stop refreshing, show a notification, play a sound, and highlight the match.
Which browsers are supported?
autoFresh targets Google Chrome and works on Chromium-based Edge. A Firefox build is planned.
How do I cancel Pro?
Manage or cancel your subscription anytime from the customer portal on your account page. Cancelling stops future charges and keeps Pro until the period ends.
