Total Refresh for Safari App Reviews

Does not work. Only refreshes the active tab.

Great app! Great support!. Safari Tab Groups and the keyboard shortcuts for navigating between tab groups and tabs, Total Refresh is wonderful for keeping everything up to date. Thanks for the app!

Doesn’t seem to work. Granted I was hoping to reload 150 tabs. I enabled the extension and pressed the button, but the tabs didn’t reload.

Good start, just a few thoughts.... Works fine with the latest Safari as of this writing. It works as a task that goes through each open tab one-by-one and refreshes them, but it didn't get all the way through all my open tabs and stopped short of the last 5 or 6 -- so it would be nice if it could get through those. Additionally, it would be nice if there were a rate limiter, becasue all my tab refreshes were on the same site and I think the site wasn't happy about that. So, if there were a way to slow down the refresh rate per tab, or only do X number at a time before taking a break and then moving on again, that would be awesome. Ideally, it could do all this in the background as before, but generally it works for what you need to do and I assume it will only get better over time.

Does not work in MacOS Catalina for me. It reloads only one tab, even though I have it set to reload all tabs in all windows.

Exc Reloader Extension. Developer is keen to update the tab reloader app, providing useful features. The latest update offering tab updates for the current tab or other selcted tabs is very convenient and not seen on competing extensions.

Does Not Work--Edited. Fixed in v1.4.2. Works as it should. Running Safari 15.4 on MacOS 12.3.1 and Total Refresh only refreshes the active tab. When "All tabs in current window" is selected, it only refreshes the active tab. When "All tabs in all windows" is selected, it only refreshes the active tab in each Safari window.

Almost perfect? Need CURRENT window refresh only. I’m so frustrated by this app and documentation at this point. The App Store page says it comes with a guide, online instructions say there should be a way to toggle it to only the current window, and I think MAYBE I saw that option when first downloading, but I can’t find anywhere in my Mac or the app menu to check/change this option. Even when uninstalling app, when I re-download it from the App Store to trigger a setup wizard or something, it just defaults back to the current settings where there’s no way to change it. I’m a user who tends to keep a few different windows open for various projects, and when I revisit a project I just want all those tabs to refresh. This app defaults to refreshing ALL tabs across ALL windows which is a significant drag on computer resources, for tabs I have no intention of using today.

Bad. I paid for something that doesn’t work. I do not recommend at all

Does not work. Tested - does not work with pinned tabs or tab groups.

Doesn’t work consistently. I have a window of tabs that I refresh daily so thought this would save me a few seconds. When I invoke it some windows are refreshed but some are not so I still have to check and it saves me nothing.

Works Great. Works great, reloads all my tabs that are in a tab group at a click

Didn't work well at all. Every time I pressed the button, it started at the top of the list of tabs and not continuing further but instead back at the beginning. It also always stopped at 11 tabs, and it also goes too fast where i get a "I'm not a robot" captcha on each tab it went through, where I have to then manually get it off. This is a great idea for an app but honestly I don't think this is working anymore at all because it just adds more inconvenience.

Worked perfectly for me. iOS 15

you cannot set a specific time to reload a single tab. you cannot set a specific time to reload a single tab

Inconsistent. Doesn’t seem to reload all tabs in a tab group when the tab group hasn’t been refreshed in a while. Have to manually refresh all tabs one by one before it starts working again.

Doesn't bring tabs back to home page. Perhaps the fault is mine. I have tabs set up on Safari that open automatically every time I start the browser. Those tabs are for specific pages. Throughout the day, while using the tabs, I may venture off to another page. I had hoped that TOTAL REFRESH would load those tabs back to their original home page. This does not seem to be the case at all. This is odd, as Chrome offers a free extension that when activated, resets all tabs back to their designated page. I will be seeking a refund on this app

New update fixes bugs. The latest update seems to have fixed all the bugs that some of the other reviews mention

This garbage is not working. It doesnt not work. Only reloads active tab.

Doesn’t work. The only thing this app does is take up storage space. Even if you turn on it’s extension in settings, it doesn’t change that page that the app opens up to. And I can’t find any trace of it in safari when all my other extensions are working perfectly fine. Don’t waste your time.

Works... Sort of.. Works on every active tab of every window, NOT the on background tabs of multiple safari windows. Would love for it to work as advertised though!

Doesn’t work. This extension either only reloads a single tab, or will reload a couple of close tabs as long as you have already refreshed them one by one before you use the extension. Update: Thanks for the response. Sadly, for me it is now only reloading the active tab, even if other tabs are reloaded first. (Previously it would reload the active tab, plus any tabs that had been recently reloaded.).

Does not work. Update. I figured it out, but from what I can tell the app doesn’t do anything other than refresh the tab I’m on. Was: The app opens to a one-liner about enabling it in Safari. Great, I did. Now what? And what does it do exactly? Where is the “Go” button? Will it refresh all my tabs automatically at some specified constraint? Will it refresh all tabs on demand?

Latest update for macOS works great!. As reported by some of the other users, this app was in a state of disrepair, but has since been updated to work for the latest macOS. Works great!

Refreshes every tab on every window. The option to only refresh the tabs on the current active window doesn’t seem to work. Like another reviewer noted, this extension works… sort of. Every time I activate it, it refreshes every tab I have across all 3 of my Safari windows. I really wish he would fix this and it would be perfect if it worked like it was supposed to.

Does not work on Safari app on iPad Pro 5th Generation. I am unable to refresh tabs on home page of safari or tabbed groups. iPad Pro 5th Generation running IOS Software Version 15.2

App doesn’t do what it claims to. When I press Total Refresh from Safari, it only reloads the current tab. All tabs that started with no thumbnail stay unloaded with no thumbnail. Tried using it over the course of several days, but they never load.

Not working. Not Working
