Track the price of anything on almost any website

To track the price of something on almost any online store, copy or share its product page to Save Genie. Genie checks the price regularly and sends you a notification when it drops. It's free on iPhone, iPad and Mac.

The ways to save

  • Share from Safari

    On iPhone or iPad, open the product page in Safari, tap Share and choose Save Genie.

  • The Safari extension

    Switch on the Save Genie extension for Safari, and an Add to Save Genie button appears on product pages it recognises. Tap it to save. It works on iPhone, iPad and Mac.

  • Paste a link

    In a shopping app or any browser, copy the product's link. Then open Save Genie, tap + and choose Add Item.

  • On a Mac

    Use the Save Genie extension for Safari or Chrome, or copy the link and choose File › New from Clipboard (⇧⌘V). You can also drag a link onto the Save Genie window, or bring in several open tabs with File › Import from Browser Tabs (⇧⌘B).

Saved the same page twice? Genie opens the one you already have instead of adding it again. Whichever way you save, the item and its price history are on all your devices.

Choose the size or colour first

Sizes and colours often have prices of their own. Pick the one you want on the product page before you save, and Genie tracks that one.

What tracks well, and what may not

Most product pages with a price track well, from the big stores to small shops. A few kinds of page may not:

  • Pages behind a sign-in

    Genie reads the page the way a visitor who isn't signed in sees it. A price you only see when you're signed in, like a members' price, may not be the one it tracks.

  • Pages without a price

    Genie needs a price on the page. If it can't read one, it says so ("I found the product but couldn't read the price") and you can add the item yourself instead.

  • Stores in other countries

    You can save from a store in another country, and its price is tracked in that store's currency. Some stores show visitors from other countries a different page, or no price at all, and those may not track.

Prices stay in the store's currency

Genie tracks each price in the currency the store charges in: a US store in US dollars, a UK store in pounds, wherever you are. It never converts a price.

If a store changes its page

Stores move things around. Genie keeps checking, and a check that's only slow or offline doesn't count against an item. If four checks in a row can't read the page, Genie pauses tracking, sends you a notification ("Tracking paused. This product may have disappeared") and moves the item to Paused. It still tries again about once a week, and if the page works again, tracking picks up where it left off.

Tracking questions.

Can Save Genie track prices on any website?

Almost any online store. Save the product page from Safari, the Safari extension, a copied link or the Mac extensions, and Genie checks the price regularly and tells you when it drops. Pages without a price, and prices you only see when signed in, may not track.

Does Save Genie work with shopping apps?

Yes: in the app, copy the product's link (it's usually under Share), then open Save Genie, tap + and choose Add Item.

What happens if a store changes its page?

Genie keeps trying. If four checks in a row fail, it pauses tracking, tells you, and moves the item to Paused. It still tries again about once a week, and picks the item back up if the page works again.

Is Save Genie free?

Yes. Save Genie is free on iPhone, iPad and Mac, with up to 15 tracked items and 3 new items a day. Premium lifts those limits. See all the answers on our Support page.
