ReadNew - Bookmark Import & Page Update Tracker

Filters noise like timestamps. Stale pages first. Badge alerts, subscriptions. For news, knowledge, and competitor tracking.

🔔 ReadNew is a smart web page update monitor that automatically tracks changes to the pages you bookmark, so you never miss an important update and no longer waste time checking manually. 🤔 Bookmark lots of pages every day but struggle to keep up with their updates? Opening and checking each one by hand takes time and effort. ReadNew automatically monitors the bookmarked pages you choose, notifies you in one place when meaningful changes occur, and lets you review all updates from a single view. 🚀 Key Features - One-click bookmark import: Automatically reads your browser bookmarks and shows them in a tree view, so you can pick pages to monitor by folder without typing URLs one by one - Choose what to monitor: Check the pages you want to track from your bookmarks, select entire folders at once, and see the selected count in real time - Automatic change detection: Checks page content on the schedule you set and only alerts you when a meaningful change is detected, avoiding noise from minor edits - Unified update list: All updated pages are shown together, sorted by view time (newest first), each with a relative time (such as "5 minutes ago") and the update date, so you can easily see how often you check - Mark as read with delayed hiding: Items marked as read are hidden after a short delay so accidental clicks can be undone; clicking a title opens the page in a new tab and marks it as read automatically - Deleted bookmark alerts: If a monitored URL is removed from your bookmarks, ReadNew lets you know and offers to keep or remove it, so your setup is never lost - Extension icon indicator: When there are unread updates, the extension button shows a visual cue so you notice new content at a glance - Subscription management and data protection: Free trial available; when a subscription expires, your data is frozen, not deleted, and is restored automatically when you renew 👥 Use Cases and Who It's For - Researchers tracking the latest papers or announcements on academic sites and databases - Developers following technical docs, framework changelogs, and API change notices - Content creators monitoring industry news, competitor activity, and policy changes - Everyday users keeping up with favorite blogs, news sites, and product release pages - Anyone who wants less information anxiety and doesn't want to miss important updates without constantly checking by hand ✨ Highlights - Core features work without signing in - Local-first storage that protects your privacy - No ads - Free trial, no immediate subscription required - Data is frozen, not lost, when a subscription expires, and restored automatically on renewal 🔒 Privacy and Permissions This extension requires the following permissions: - Read browser bookmarks: Used to build the list of URLs you can monitor. Bookmarks are read only when you open the settings page and are never collected silently in the background - Access the URLs you choose to monitor: Used to check for content changes on your schedule. Only the URLs you select are accessed, and no other browsing history is scanned. You set the check interval and can pause or remove monitored items at any time - Show notifications: Used to alert you when updates are detected (can be turned off) 💾 How data is stored: - Monitoring settings and update status are stored in your browser's local storage - Your account and subscription status are stored on our server and used only to verify your subscription; page content is never uploaded - Your full browsing history and unselected bookmarks are never uploaded - Unselected pages are never read automatically, and your everyday browsing is never monitored 🗂️ If you delete a monitored bookmark, the extension will let you know the next time you open the settings page, and you can decide whether to keep or remove it. 💡 Tips - After installing, click the extension icon to go straight to the monitoring settings page, then select the bookmarked pages you want to monitor - Save your settings and return to the home page; the extension will start checking for updates on your schedule - Click a title in the update list to open the page in a new tab, or click the Mark as read button to mark it as read without opening it - An indicator on the extension icon means you have unread updates 📌 Limitations - ReadNew only monitors content changes on pages you select; it does not track every site you visit - Only meaningful content changes are detected; very small changes (such as timestamps or login status) may not trigger an alert - Protected pages that require sign-in or session authentication are not yet supported, and changes on these pages may not be detected reliably - Mobile browsers are not yet supported 📮 Feedback and Contact If you have questions or suggestions, use the in-app feedback button to email our official support address.
