Works as promised

To make it even better I wish there was a way to enter words to ignore. If any change includes those words then it can be ignored.

Excellent Free website checker

Great that it’s not cloud based! I regularly check several websites multiple times a day. This tool is super easy to use. I wish more apps were this simple.

Response from developer

Thank you very much for your feedback!

Not cloud based

Only checks for changes when you open the app. Entirely useless.

Response from developer

Hi! The idea was in a standalone app not tied to any clouds. I'm very sorry that you didn't like it but for many people app turned out to be useful (and for myself of course).

Does not work with cellular data, only un WIFI mode.

Does not work with cellular data, only un WIFI mode.

Response from developer

Hi! Very strange. You are the first to report it. I myself have never had such a problem too. I'll try to find out something about it, because I can't even check it out. Everything works with both Wi-Fi and cellular communication equally.

Does not work

Not sure how frequently it is checking for changes but not getting any notifications

Response from developer

The app definitely works because I use it myself every day with different sites. Unfortunately, not all websites can be checked for updates, but this is quite rare (usually these are sites that have some specific active elements), I am very sorry that the site that you tried, fell into this number. The minimum time to check for updates is 1 hour (see the reminder settings). To make sure that the application really works, you can add, for example, the Washington Post website. If it still does not work, write me an e-mail sites.watcher.supp@gmail.com (the letter can be sent from the corresponding item in the application settings).
