Price tracker for Chrome: the built-in one, extensions, and no extension

Chrome already has a price tracker: on a product page, click the Bookmark icon and trackable products land in a Shopping list with price tracking switched on. It only works for products Google recognizes, for signed-in, syncing users in five countries, so for any other store the better pick is AyeWatch, a web and phone app that watches the exact URL you paste with no extension at all.

Option 1: Chrome's built-in price tracking

Google documents the feature on its Chrome help page for shopping insights. On desktop it works like this:

• Track: open the product page and select Bookmark in the address bar. Trackable items go to the Shopping list folder, and Track price is on by default.
• Check history: select Shopping Insights in the address bar to open a side panel with the price history and price range, including variants such as color or storage size.
• Manage: open Bookmarks and lists, then Show all bookmarks, then Shopping list to see prices, drops, and the untrack option.
• Notifications: go to Settings, then Google services, and switch Get price tracking notifications on or off. Each email has an unsubscribe link.

The catch is the entry list. You must live in Australia, Canada, India, Japan or the US, sign in to Chrome, opt in to syncing tabs and history, and turn on "Make searches and browsing better." If that is you and the product is one Chrome can track, this is the least effort of any option here.

Option 2: an Amazon price tracker extension

If your shopping is mostly Amazon, two extensions come up again and again:

• Keepa describes itself as an Amazon price tracker with history charts, price drop alerts, price watches and browser extensions.
• The Camelizer, from the makers of camelcamelcamel, shows historical pricing data and lets you set watches that email you when the price drops. Its Chrome Web Store listing names Amazon in the US, Canada, Europe and Australia, and was last updated on June 7, 2024.

Both are useful inside Amazon and silent everywhere else. As with any extension, read the permissions it asks for before you install it.

Option 3: a tracker with no extension

AyeWatch takes a different route. You paste a product URL from any public store into the web app, write the condition in plain words ("ping me when this drops below $400"), and it checks the page on its own schedule. Nothing needs to stay installed in Chrome, and alerts arrive as push notifications on iOS or Android, or in the in-app feed. Paid plans, from $9 a month as of November 2026, add email, Slack, Discord and webhooks.

For developers that last part is handy: a webhook can drop the alert into whatever script or channel you already watch.

The three side by side

Which to use

Start with Chrome's own tracking if you qualify and the item is recognized; it costs nothing to try. Keep Keepa or The Camelizer if Amazon history charts are what you care about. For the rest of your list (the maker's own store, a small shop, a pricing page), use AyeWatch, since it is the only one of the three that is not limited to what Google or Amazon can see.
