Automatic Browser Tab Refresher

[Joshua Farrell]

How many of you use addons to your browsers, that allow you to refresh any page/tab, at any rate you want it to, to stay up to date on something? I have one for Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome. I generally use it to keep tabs of certain forums, while I am not looking directly at it. For example, I may use it to refresh FP every few minutes or so, or leave it running on a 30 second refresh of the whose online page. Granted, not all the time. I personally hate running it on the index of XF forums, as most of them have the automatic stuff on the index.

Downsized that it takes allot of memory usage, There are allot but I keep them down and only use what I want to use. Like Grammarly 😛

But I hear the next chrome update will resolve that issue

@Empire, so is that a yes or no, to using a automatic page refresher?

I don't have any add-ons on my browser. I use Google Chrome.

Didnt even know those sort of things existed.

I just press the refresh button within the browser itself.

That's a cool tool for now, but I'm sure it will be common practice for forums to have the automatic page refresher built in sooner rather than later. Just a matter of all of these forum software developers getting with the times.

Anyways, I'm rarely on my computer for an extended period of time, so I personally don't have a need for this type of browser add-on.

I didn't know they existed either. I do keyboard entry with a lot of things so I constantly press F5 to Refresh.

Most of us do, anyway what if you have a tab that you do not want it to be refreshed automatic

Interesting question. Maybe it can be set for different pages?

After installing Easy Auto Refresh I am concerned with the redirect issues in Chrome browser like this. I will never install addons again! Never!
