App summary

A one-time lifetime purchase to add new features to Web Alert.
Web Alert can monitor your web pages for changes and notify you when a change was detected (e.g. when the price of a product in an online store has dropped).

✔ Set any custom frequency for checks (e.g. every 5 seconds)
✔ Parallel checks
✔ Filter text, e.g. only watch changes in the text between word … and word …
✔ Monitor a number for changes (e.g. the price of a product)
✔ Define a time range without checks or without notifications
✔ Change notifications only when a certain keyword is present (or absent)
✔ Access websites with SSL certificate problems
✔ Limit alerts to a minimum change percentage
✔ Duplicate alerts
✔ Modify the URL of an alert
✔ Restore alerts deleted by accident
✔ Can notify when a website is down or offline
✔ Export website versions as a zip archive
✔ Export / Import your alerts
✔ View changes already in the notification
✔ Keeps website links inside the changes

Suitable especially for professionals in web development or automation:
✔ Filter content with regular expressions (RegEx)
✔ Use CSS and jQuery selectors
✔ Watch in HTML source code for changes
✔ Plug-in to integrate with Tasker, Automate and Automagic

With the extensive Tasker plugin many parts of the app become programmable even without knowledge of a programming language.

You still need to have the free Web Alert app installed.

Absolutely worth the money. Although it's not a cloud service and it utilizes a browser in the background on your device I find it to be so much more robust than other competitors. Excellent app and so happy I found it. It definitely will use more battery than a cloud-based application but the fact that the dev offers The app for free without ads was enough for me to actually purchase the pro version as a thank you with even more robust checking times!

Works.. mostly.. sometimes it just decided to not scan for updates? Even though the setting are all there.. it'll be an hour later without scanning. Even if you have it set to every minute. It just falls asleep.. especially in the evening? No clue.. no setting change it.. evenings and sometimes midday it just takes a two hour nap.

Astoundingly Good App. Well worth buying the Pro version. It really is a great tool for online shopping, you can see immediately when a product comes back in stock. My only niggle is that a slow loading webpage can trigger a false alert. It would be great if you could add a few seconds delay to the comparison to give the page time to load & get round this problem.
