OnWebChange
OnWebChange monitors webpages and sends alerts when it detects changes. Users can track particular page elements, including prices, headlines and listings, and monitor content on sites that load dynamically with JavaScript. It also checks PDFs, images, text files and other online documents, and can reach login-protected pages using custom headers. Notifications are available by email, mobile notification and webhook; Pushover is named as a third-party mobile notification service for Android and iOS. Checks can run as often as every five minutes. The service can translate tracked content and summarize updates, while groups, labels, pause and resume controls, and CSV import and export help manage trackers. Access is listed for Android, iOS, web and API. The Free plan is free and includes three page trackers with basic daily monitoring. Lite is €0.89 a month, and Standard is €2.79 a month with unlimited trackers. Documentation, video tutorials, email and member support enquiries are available.
