It is especially useful for pages that update over time, such as live status pages, announcements, dashboards, booking pages, and websites that occasionally become slow or unresponsive. Similar apps on the App Store position themselves around automatic tab refresh, custom intervals, countdowns, and site-based controls, which fits this use case well.
