Works great, if you take the time to understand and test the various elements and settings

While this may present as a simple solution, it works best when you spend time tweaking and testing your site monitoring. I’ve been able to set things up right in order to avoid missing things as well as false alarms. If you use this for business or for finding valuable items in a competitive market then it’s well worth the price. My only wishes right now is for there to be an Apple Watch app that I could use to at least see previews of monitor alerts without having to necessarily open my phone to check. Or for the visual preview seen in the email notifications to also be shown in the text notifications and through the webhook interfaces. The visual part is important to me so that would be huge.

Good

It is very usefull and beneficial for me as a call center agent so that i will be aware of new chats that comes and alert me

Free features removed

I used Distill successfully a few months ago to set monitors on my laptop and receive mobile notifications. I went back to set up a monitor and found this is now a paid feature with the lowest membership tier costing $15 a MONTH. Removing previously free features and charging for them feels dishonest.

Did Not Function

I downloaded the app and started a subscription with a 10 min refresh time on a website that does random merchandise drops. Unfortunately the app did not pick up up when the drop happened, I caught it first by monitoring the web page for about 2 hours and manually refreshing every 5 minutes myself. Afterwards, it unfortunately never sent a ping or detected the new merchandise, so it just did not pick up activity that occurred.

Aktuell nicht nutzbar

Sobald man über die Push Benachrichtigung bekommt und drauf klickt, spinnt die App. Seit dem Update springt ständig der Bildschirm in der App vor und zurück.
