Keepa.com - Amazon Price Tracker by Keepa.com
Review by Firefox user 15567644
Rated 4 out of 5
by Firefox user 15567644, 6 years agoA good app with tons of cool features. As far as I can see it works fine, the most useful feature probably being the price graph under every product.
However Keepa is sometimes extremely slow when it comes to notifying you of a price change. Like hours too slow.
First of all it seems to only be able to refresh your tracked product once an hour.
And then when it does refresh, it can delay sending you the notification even further for some reason.
I tried using it to track an extremely in-demand product, which flew off the shelf almost immediately after it got there. Keepa sent me a heads up on messenger. 2 hours after the thing sold out.
This method of operation/occasional hiccups are probably fine when trying for regular amazon deals that normally last a few hours(which is what I will continue to use it for), but for tracking availability, it's not optimal.

posted 6 years agoWe send notifications without any delay. If you use our Facebook Messenger bot to receive notifications you have to view every notification we send you in order to be able to receive new ones. This is a restriction by Facebook, which requires the user to interact with the bot to prevent spam.
It is correct that we update tracked products hourly. This is the best we can do for tens of millions of tracked products. Very popular ones are updated more frequently though.

- Rated 1 out of 5by clank, 16 days agoCette extension valait 5 étoiles, jusqu’à l'utilisation du stupide antibot de chez cloudflare qui tourne en rond et n'affiche jamais la suite.
Si vous voulez bloquer les humains, cet antibot est parfait. - Rated 1 out of 5by Darwin4Ever, 23 days agoThis Keepa Firefox-addon WAS a FIVE star, but now it has become totally unusable due to the cloudfare anti-bot. No way to stop the "I'm a human" loop . This is so sad because it WAS so GOOD. I've been using it for years !
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 5974554, a month agoIt was so great, when it worked on firefox.
Now, it won't work because, now it's using clouflare which always blocks me and now I'm asked to remove my adblocker!!??
NO!
This is a stupid request - and why do you need cloudflare?
What a disappointment! - Rated 4 out of 5by That guy, a month agoI have been using this extension for a while and I like that it works right out of the box without a bunch of configuring. I also like that it has filters like price drop alerts and such, although I haven't gotten around to using them.
-1 star for: "This add-on is not actively monitored for security by Mozilla. Make sure you trust it before installing"
I'm not sure how you're supposed to be able o quickly research and monitor the security of an extension. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12874713, a month ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by carson, 4 months agoReally good. Nowadays a lot of things say they are on sale but it can be very misleading. I have no complaints about this extension.
