Random Interval

The Random Interval feature helps you avoid detection by websites that monitor for bot-like, repetitive behavior. Instead of refreshing at a fixed time, it varies the interval within a specified range.

How Random Intervals Work

You define a minimum and maximum time value (e.g., between 10 and 25 seconds). The extension will then pick a random duration within that range for each refresh cycle. One cycle might be 12 seconds, the next 21 seconds, and so on.

Benefits of Random Intervals

  • When to use it: when you want checks spread out rather than on a fixed beat, for example when several tabs watch the same site. A random delay does not hide who you are, and it does not get around a site's rate limits or terms of use.
  • Improved Reliability: Reduces the likelihood of temporary IP bans or CAPTCHAs caused by constant, predictable refreshes.
  • Customizable Behavior: Allows you to fine-tune refresh patterns that better match natural user activity.

What is Random Interval in Auto Refresh Page?

Random Interval makes Auto Refresh Page reload a tab after a random delay between a minimum and a maximum number of seconds that you choose. With 30 and 90, for example, one reload might come after 41 seconds and the next after 77. It works in Chrome, Edge and Firefox. Random Interval is a Premium feature; free users can try it for 10 random refreshes.

Random Interval FAQ

Is Random Interval free?

It is a Premium feature. Free users can try it for 10 random refreshes in total (a one-time allowance, not a daily one); Premium removes the limit.

What is the shortest random interval?

1 second, and the maximum must be larger than the minimum. Short ranges send many requests to the website, so use the longest range that meets your need.

Can each page have its own random range?

Yes. The range is saved per page in the Refresh List, so every page keeps its own minimum and maximum.
