![]() ![]() Forced to log in with Facebook or Twitter because that's apparently how it provides notifications. Supposed to give notifications when pages change, but every single review says that the app doesn't work. Punchr - Free, 7 ratings, 1 star They also have an extension for Chrome. There's only one review, and it says you have to go into the app and manually reload the page and then highlights changes, so not useful for instant notifications. I'm planning on trying the free version tonight, or if anyone else wants to try it and report back.Ĭhanges Checker - Free ($0.99 for unlimited websites), 1 rating, 2 stars The description makes it sound perfect. Unfortunately, there are no ratings or reviews for the app. One drawback is that it only checks once per hour normally, once per second when the app is open and the phone is plugged in. Search Alert - Free for 1 alert, $0.99 for unlimited, no ratings If it works as described, it might be fairly useful. At least one user says the target word find doesn't work consistently for them. Unsure if it can handle multiple pages/tabs. No push notifications, so you have to be physically in the app. There are no reviews for the most recent update.Īuto Refresh - $2.99, 6 ratings, 3.5 stars Automatically reloads a specified web page and gives visual and audio alerts when text matching a specified keyword is found (so it doesn't actually monitor for changes per se). One reviewer said they contacted the developer about issues and never got a response. A number of people mentioned that you have to open the app to see updates. Reviews are mixed, but most people say it simply doesn't work at all. Description says it should work in the background and send alerts. Page Monitor - $2.99, 32 ratings, 2.5 stars Not associated with Page Monitor for Chrome, but the functionality sounds similar. Here's the info I was able to gather about the available apps: :-) Thank you in advance for any feedback! Please refrain from any Android snobbery in the comments, I'm aware you guys have better options available to you. Nothing on the app store has great reviews or seems like it'll do exactly what I want, so I wanted to ask this sub for opinions, while sharing what I found. I'd really like to get similar functionality on my iPhone 6 with push notifications, so I've been researching available options. ![]() I've used Page Monitor for Chrome with mixed results on my home and work desktops. ![]()
