Reviews & Comments of Page Refresh chrome extension

First result I found on searching, and it works perfectly.

Settings and use could be a bit more clear but once you have it, it does exactly what I needed. Recommended.

excellent app i have seen

loved it. I wasn't expected but its really does job thanks guys

Amazing and easy

I have been using this for quite a while. It works very well and it is very simple. Perfect for what I need.

Works but only of a per session basis, i.e. it doesn't remember to run next time the URL is loaded.

Does not work. After installing it will not turn on, or can be used.

Extension works well but is triggering as virus with eset a/v.

Extremely Good Extension

very amazing thanks

Great

Prevents GMail from loading. Even when I haven't done anything to enable page-refresh on gmail, having this extension installed and enabled prevents me from loading gmail. This suggests it's meddling with things that it shouldn't be.

ITs not working for me ? I cant seem to paste a URL

I loaded this extension and was excited to try it out. But I can't even get to first base. I can view it in my extensions and it's turned on. But I haven't been able to get it to refresh anything, nor can I even view the nice page to select a refresh times that I've seen in the other reviews. A little help page would go a long way here.

Excellent app very friendly and helpful app, thanks!

nice.works good

Wow! What an app! Totally recommended for anyone searching for an app with good UI.

Works Great , very accurate

Works perfect - with a good logic set of options

Good working, thank you.

good

Basic. Works well. There is an annoying display bug that makes it confusing though: there is a "3" in front of the countdown timer so it looks like the countdown is, say, 35 minutes instead of 5 minutes. I also appreciate that this extension has legit reviews vs "that other Auto Refresh ..." which is stuffed with fake 5 star reviews and doesn't work.

nice app

this is too good & amazing

Time saving and an excellent extension. Thanks to those who are behind developing it.

When I set timer for 5mins it starts showing from 35:00 but its works find. I think the letter "3" is added in the top right extension. Time set: 5 mins Image : https://ibb.co/xCtGFXN

Nice extension

So far, I like it, but it occasionally stops working and I have to set it again. I think it might be the site because when you set it for a site, it uses the entire URL. I work on a website that's on our internal network and the actual URL keeps changing after the domain. If this used the domain to select which sites keep getting refreshed, it might work better. There is no way to edit the site in the settings. The images in this page don't look like the extension. You don't set the time interval with static selections as shown in the images. This page should be updated.

great

I use this every day to refresh sites I don't want to get logged out of every 5 minutes. Works like a charm. I don't know what everyone else's issue is but I think these are all old complaints so I wanted to give a fresh one. Also FYI - the screenshots must be an older version as well, the current version allows you to specify a custom amount of time (any interval).

ESET detected it as JS/Chromex.Agent.BE trojan.

Most of the reviews I saw here aren't positive so I had to write this. It seems the developer has made some changes to the extension since you can now set custom intervals super easily. There are other issues mentioned as well, but I haven't experienced any of them in two weeks of daily usage on two Windows laptops.

Well done! It's nice but there is some bugs that can be fixed. When i start timer, it display 30 mins as default but actually timer work on time. it's just showing 30 mins for all times.

Good extension. Everyone Recomanded

Can set min, shows countdown,reloads only specific pages, but can't ignore confirmation.

1000% Work Opera, chrome, Firefox too.love it :)

nice

Not the one im looking for. The refresh worked as described, but the tab keep refreshing even after the url changed.

I've always used an Auto Refresher (F5) since the early days of MS Explorer for eBay sales, these days with modern browsers it's an app or an extension and this one is my pick of the bunch with 5 Stars. Page Refresh UI is easy to use with a changeable quick default setting in mins or secs, software has the ability to remember its countdown on an individual page or pages even with multiple timers set. Page Refresh is also compatible with my favourites Edge and Chrome, in particular the "On Start-up" in settings, timers will be remembered and start the next time you open your browser with specific pages so nothing is forgotten, Brilliant!! thanks Devs.

Excelent (Y)

Pros: It works as described, I guess. Cons: THE ONE THING I ABSOLUTELY HATE!!!! Is that when I am in another tab or window, when the countdown is done and it is time to refresh the page, it does not automatically refresh - it ASKS ME IF IT CAN REFRESH and it comes to the front of all the other windows. This is extremely annoying when I am trying to work in another window. The point of the refresh is that it should refresh itself.

Works as expected. Love the visible timer!

Don't have high expectations. Not very dependable. Stalls at times. Fails to 'refresh' more than once thus not dependable. I REALLY wanted it to do what it claims to do, it doesn't.

Nice

awesome

work this good but first i'm don't understand your app ..please update more easy

Very useful extension ;) There are a couple websites I use that require me to be at my computer while programing but with this nifty extension I can go and make a cup of tea and some toast without worrying about the dreaded afk idle timers and (Are you still there) popping up! Thank you very much.

I loved this extension for a while when it was responding to a keyboard shortcut for it to start/stop refreshing at a pre-determined interval. It was really helping me at work. But with the newer updates, those shortcuts are no longer working. That makes it almost useless to me now. I'm going to keep it in the hopes that they'll add shortcuts again, but I'm very disappointed.

Love it. Thanks very much for this program.

Latest update has really changed you it works, much, much better. Very useful for keeping sessions alive when developing sites.

Not useful. The refreshing stops after a while and if I don't notice, stays there. I have to reset it all the time.

Doesn't work, counts to negative... tried reloading multiple times, changing times, nothing worked

SOM TOOL I REALLY LOVE THIS TOOL

Not working as expected. Not user-friendly.

Update: I take it back. It worked for a while but now most if not all pages I've applied it to are showing the "count down to minus infinity" issue. Not good, so I'm uninstalling. Original: I'm using this with Vivaldi 1.15, it works exactly as advertised. I do like the "last 30 seconds" countdown, and the button to click to change the refresh time. Nice job. And I am not seeing any of the "infinite negative countdown" issue reported by some others here.

nice extn

Useful extension. Simple interface and works well.

you have adddEventListener in js.js

flat out doesn't work.

It has been working fine, sometimes I get some glitches but the reason is definitely the website I'm using it on because it happens sometimes with manual refresh. Good work. Thanks!

Does not work under the 10s setting. Bugs out and timer starts counting up.

After a certain number loops, the countdown goes into negative numbers.

refreshes once only and then counter goes negative, so never hits zero for next refresh.

After a certain number loops, the countdown goes into negative numbers. Does not work anymore!

doesnt work

does not work as intended

Refresh the first time and then continues into the negatives without refreshing at the set interval

Doesn't let me set custom intervals which is what I need to be able to do. Really disappointing that they just offer up preset times.

Worked very well but sometimes forgot to refresh pages with editable content after edits were completed.

nice

Refresh choices over 30 seconds don't work.

It's trash, like most of them (there was one, Auto Refresh, that used to work great, but no longer does). It simply stops working. No warning. No reason. No notice. It. Simply. Stops. It's trash.

do not return to original position in page

Simply does not work.

WARNING DO NOT INSTALL THIS APPLICATION AS IT CONTAINS SPYWARE The addon 'Page Refresh' tracks your browser history and reports your browsing details directly to pixel.intenta.io

Broken, goes into minus time.

They're inserting JS to every page which loads adverts.

Negative timer glitch is happening for me as well. Not very useful.

It's broken, clogging my developer console with JS errors: "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'appendChild' of undefined"

times out, just stops reloading.

Does not work. Page only refreshes once then counter goes into negatives. Does not remember scroll position.

Bugs because it's refresh timer is seperate from the displayed timer. Use if (time <= 0) instead of if (time == 0) so we don't get a timer that goes to -10000 without refreshing the page. Changing == to <= should fix the bug.

Buggy.

simple and functional

worked great.. VERY useful for web design.. i did not saw any ads but maybe it because i have adblock enabled :) other than that it's a great extension which i suggested it to my fellow class mates :)

like the timer and the options for refresh interval 3 stars because it causes access denied errors on the actual page I want refreshed.

magic

It didn't automatically refresh. It would start counting backwards into negative numbers.

i use this on youtube

Works sporadically.. After a while I see negative numbers as others have reported.

This app does exactly what it says so I'm giving 5 stars. Developer, can you please add the ability to have pages refreshed on a schedule?

counts down, and then starts counting negative numbers. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.

Out of the way and works! it's not one of the buttons like all the other reloaders.

There is no button that you can click an configure the interval.

goes into negative mode

This used to be great, but recently I've noticed the "Counter goes negative and stops reloading." problem that other reviewers mentioned.

Nice and helpful

Doesn't work Counter goes negative and stops reloading. Others have mentioned this, but there's no feedback from the developer.

It sometimes works, then starts counting in negative numbers. Uninstalling.

This is amazing just needs one feature to allow us to pick the time i.e. 1 minute 5 seconds etc...THANKS!

The problem in OSX is that the counter goes negative and no refresh is done after that. If it can be fixed, it would be great. I tested with the latest version of Chrome (30.0)

All I want is a button that I push to reload a specific page without ads. This seems to be impossible. Consider this a meta review for ALL "Reload Every" type of extension available on the chrome store.

it is not refreshing one url for some reason. It counts down to zero and keeps counting -1, -2, never refreshing.

This extension stopped working for me recently, the keyboard shortcut works to "start" it (putting the refresh icon in the address bar) but the pages don't refresh. I've closed Chrome out multiple times, changed the timing, it simply doesn't operate as intended.

Small and super usefull

Very nice. I wish it could show a countdown timer -- also a user-definable refresh interval. One potentially serious problem -- it looks like there may be a memory leak. I've got a page that I'm currently refreshing every 10 minutes, and the Chrome task manager ("View Background Pages") shows the memory used by this page is steadily increasing.

Used to work, now doesn't work on Version 24.0.1312.57 m

Awesome App, I use it to simulate load with many tabs open :) Could the min refresh be bring down to 1s or .5s?

This extension is great cause it only refresh when you are idle. Two things I would suggest are: 1-Maintain the reloaders active after closing Chrome. 2-Show the time left to reload.

Excellent extension!

Great extension, but it would be nice to have randomization and user-defined. Sometimes I need to spam reload a page; other times, I only need to reload once an hour. Also, setting a new default would be lovely. Otherwise, great extension. My four will be a five in a heartbeat if certain additions are made.
