A Chrome extension for supported website session timeouts.

When a website signs you out during long browser work, you need to know whether the page is supported before trusting any keep-alive tool. Session Activity Helper gives you a visible browser-only test, local pulse diagnostics, and Pro site profiles for repeat websites that interrupt your workflow.

Browser-only activity for supported pages. Session Activity Helper does not override site, workplace, school, browser, device-management, or admin-controlled session rules.

Test the website before you rely on it

Every website handles idle sessions differently. A banking portal, training platform, CRM, dashboard, SSO page, and internal app can each respond differently to browser activity. Start with the exact website tab that times out and run a visible page test before you depend on it.

Supported HTTP and HTTPS tabs can be tested from the extension popup.
Chrome internal pages, extension pages, and the Chrome Web Store are unsupported.
Admin policies, SSO rules, and server-side timeouts can still end a session.

Look for local evidence, not vague promises

A session timeout extension should tell you what happened. Session Activity Helper shows whether the current tab is supported, when the last local pulse ran, which recipe is active, and what to try next if the page behaves differently than expected.

Turn repeat websites into saved workflows

Manual use is enough for quick one-off sessions. Pro becomes useful when the same websites keep interrupting you: save the interval, recipe, overlay mode, run window, and support context so the next session starts with less setup.

How to test it

Install Session Activity Helper from the Chrome Web Store.
Open the website tab that usually signs out or times out.
Run Test this page and confirm the extension reports a supported tab.
Start a visible browser session and keep the green indicator enabled.
Watch last pulse, next pulse, and active recipe in the popup.
Save a Pro profile if this website is part of a recurring workflow.

Free vs Pro decision

Free is the right starting point when you need one visible manual test. Pro is for repeat sites, saved profiles, advanced recipes, longer visible run windows, and exportable diagnostics.

FAQ

Clear answers before you install.

The honest limits matter. They reduce support load and make Pro upgrades more durable.

Can a Chrome extension keep every website logged in?

No. Some session rules are enforced by the website, identity provider, employer, school, or administrator. A browser extension can help only on supported pages that respond to browser activity.

Is this the same as refreshing the page?

No. Refreshing can lose form state, filters, progress, or unsaved work. Session Activity Helper starts with visible browser activity and local diagnostics on supported pages.

When is Pro worth it?

Pro is worth considering when the same website needs saved profiles, auto-start behavior for saved domains, advanced recipes, longer run windows, or exportable support diagnostics.

Next step

Install free, test a real page, then save the workflow if it helps.

Add the extension, open the page that keeps timing out, run Test this page, and start a visible session. Pro is for repeat sites and longer workflows.
