How to use Safari’s Notify Me to watch webpages for changes

# What Notify Me is and why it matters Safari's Notify Me feature (iOS 27, iPadOS 27 and macOS 27) lets the browser monitor a webpage for changes you care about and send a notification when it detects the update. It runs inside Safari, so you don't need browser extensions or third‑party monitoring tools.

# How it works, in plain terms

# Quick step‑by‑step setup

1. 1Open the webpage you want to watch in Safari.
2. 2Click or tap the three horizontal lines at the left of the address bar.
3. 3Choose the Notify Me or similar monitoring option.
4. 4Enter a short description of the change you want Safari to detect.
5. 5Select a check schedule (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly).
6. 6Save the notification and wait for Safari to run checks on the chosen schedule.

# Practical uses

• Price tracking and restocks: watch a product page for price drops or stock changes.
• Event or ticket openings: get alerted when registration or tickets become available.
• News or content monitoring: receive a notification when a particular topic or new story appears on a page.
• Policy or terms changes: monitor pages that publish updates to terms, privacy policies or FAQs.

# Managing and refining notifications

• Be concise and specific when you describe what to watch. A clear phrase that appears on the page will help Safari detect the change.
• Match the check frequency to how fast the content changes. Use hourly for fast-moving product pages and daily or weekly for slower updates.
• Review and delete Notify Me entries in Safari when you no longer need them.

# Tips to improve reliability

• Use text that is likely to appear exactly on the page (product price, "in stock", a headline or a specific registration phrase).
• For prices, include the currency or numeric value format you expect.

# Compatibility and scope

# Final practical note Set sensible check intervals and clear watch text to reduce false alerts and make the feature useful day to day. Because Safari performs checks on a schedule you choose, adjust frequency based on how quickly the page typically changes.
