REFRESHINATOR ONLINE. Pick the text. Pick the tab. Pick the mode. Refreshinator keeps watch. AUTO REFRESH Reloads the page at your chosen interval and checks whether your target text appears or disappears. PAGE WATCH Checks the current page without reloading it. Reloads off. Eyes on. PREPARED TABS Prepare up to 30 destinations without loading them. Destination prepared. No request sent yet. Open prepared tabs individually when you are ready. If monitoring is configured, it starts after that tab completes its first load. LINK COMMANDS Press and hold a web link on iPhone or iPad, or right-click on Mac, to open it in the current tab, a new tab or a background tab. You can also open and monitor it, prepare tabs, bookmark, share or copy it. TAB CONTROL Switch the tab picker between List and Grid. Duplicate a full address, domain or path. A monitored duplicate gets its own monitoring state and starts after its own first load. WAITING-PAGE STATUS Optional waiting-page handling can recognise supported waiting pages, pause Refreshinator's own automatic activity in that tab and show clear status when human input or another action is required. MORE COMMANDS • Check for target text appearing or disappearing • Choose a monitoring interval and optional alarm • Keep the device awake while monitoring • Schedule a URL to open at a chosen time • Save reusable Quick Fill text snippets for copy and paste • Use bookmarks, sharing and private browsing options Site behaviour and availability remain under each website's control.
