Refresh Pilot Docs

The Tabs dashboard

FREE The popup's Tabs tab is your mission control: every page currently refreshing, each with its own countdown and controls, plus a feed of your latest keyword alerts — all in one place, on every plan.

The Tabs tab lists every refreshing page as its own row — each with a live countdown to its next reload.

The "Refreshing now" list

One row per running job. Reading a row from left to right:

PartWhat it tells you
Status dotA colored dot showing the job's state at a glance.
HostThe website's name, e.g. shop.example.com, plus a short page title/path so twins are easy to tell apart.
×countHow many refresh cycles have completed — ×12 means the page has reloaded 12 times.
CountdownTime to the next reload, as MM:SS (or H:MM:SS from one hour up). Shows ❚❚ while paused.
Pause / ResumeFreeze this one job without losing its settings, and pick it back up later.
StopEnd this job — the others keep running.
Progress barA thin bar filling up as the interval elapses.

Click anywhere on a row to jump straight to that tab — Refresh Pilot activates and focuses it (and closes the popup, unless you're using the side panel). The list header shows a live count of running jobs and a "Stop all" button — one click ends everything at once.

Real-life example: you're watching three shops for a sneaker restock. Three rows, three countdowns. One shop announces a delay? Click its row's Stop. Going into a meeting? Stop all.

The Alerts feed

Below the list lives a feed of recent monitor hits — every time a watched keyword fired, newest first. Each entry shows the keyword as a small chip, the host, the page title, and a relative time ("just now", "3m ago"). Each has a Dismiss (✕) button, and there's a "Clear all" for the whole feed. Clicking an alert jumps to its tab, just like a job row.

ℹ️ The feed is a short-term memory, not an archive: it keeps at most 50 alerts, and each one disappears after 30 minutes. What triggers an alert in the first place — notifications, sounds and more — is covered in Notifications & sounds.

Small details worth knowing

  • Count badge: the Tabs tab's label in the popup's tab bar shows a little badge with the number of active jobs — you can see "3 running" before you even open it.
  • Always live: the view updates itself about every 0.7 seconds, so countdowns and counts tick in real time.
  • Empty states: with nothing running you'll see "No tabs refreshing — press Start on any page", and the feed says "Keyword alerts will appear here." — that's normal, not an error.
💡 Next: control jobs without opening the popup at all — Shortcuts, side panel & menu covers hotkeys, the side panel, and the right-click menu.
