Automatically refresh tabs based on custom time intervals

Description from store

Tab Auto Refresh is a browser addon that helps you automatically reload (refresh) tabs of your choice.

To operate with this addon, please open toolbar popup UI while you are visiting a website. Adjust time interval in seconds (i.e. 120 sec) and you are all set. Selected tab will be reloaded based on the interval you just set.

Please note reloading occurs based on tab URL not tab ID or domain. If you want to stop the current "reload" task, please press on the "stop" button at top left corner in toolbar popup UI. Alternatively you can set the interval to 0 which is equal to stop function.

If you have many tabs reloading and do not want to visit each tab to clear the reloading task, please open toolbar popup UI and press on the "reset" (top right) button to do so. This button serves as a global reset button and clears the reloading task for all tabs.

Note: The toolbar popup interface supports dark mode. To switch the popup interface theme to dark, please press the moon icon on the bottom left corner.

To report bugs, please visit addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/tab-auto-refresh.html) and fill the bug report form.

Amit Kumar 2023-12-06: Mine is not working properly as it refresh just once and then it does not repeat the refreshing of the page and also the time counter is reduced to 0 automatically after every refresh and hence I have to enter the time counter again for it to work and that too works just once and again the time counter gets reset.

Farzad Diba 2023-02-10: This extension is simple and effective. It does exactly what i want which is to refresh ANY tab i have opened whenever I open it. It remembers, it saves and it does its job. I've tried several and this one is the best.

Dave Allwright 2023-01-05: It doesn't work for me either. It looks from the reviews like this used to work well for most. Perhaps it stopped working after some browser version update but, whatever the reason, this is no good for me now I'm afraid.

Zakka 2022-03-23: I absolutely love this extension as it helps me get my work done, it does seem to not work correctly on the latest version of Chrome sadly and the last update was in July 2021, hopefully the developer can update it to work with the recent version so it works again for all of us. Thanks for the wonderful job regardless!

Fusion Developer 2022-03-10: I use a program to monitor on my LAN, but it randomly freezes and I have to refresh the page. This app automatically refreshes it on a set interval and now I no longer have to manually refresh. Thanks!
