Is there actually a way to run Keepa or CamelCamelCamel extensions on Chrome for Android because Im losing my mind trying to track deals on my phone. Ive been using these trackers on desktop for years with no issues at all but now that Im traveling and trying to buy a new laptop within my 800 dollar budget before Friday, Im stuck browsing via mobile. Desktop mode doesnt load the extension bars either. Am I missing some hidden setting or flag in Android Chrome, or do I just need to switch to a different browser entirely just for this?

> Is there actually a way to run Keepa or CamelCamelCamel extensions on Chrome for Android In my experience over the years, standard mobile Chrome just doesnt support desktop extensions. You need to switch to Kiwi Browser on Android. It allows direct installation from the Chrome Web Store, letting you run Keepa and CamelCamelCamel on mobile without losing your desktop workflow.

Regarding what #2 said about mobile extensions, I totally get why people jump straight to Kiwi for this. Last year when I was trying to grab a graphics card on a sudden trip, I used that browser with the Keepa extension running. It mostly worked, but honestly mobile Chrome can get pretty unstable with desktop plugins loaded in. If you are crunched for time before Friday and need that $800 laptop stable and safe, sometimes its just easier to copy the Amazon product link and paste it directly into the CamelCamelCamel website in a separate tab instead of relying on the extension overlay. It saves you from potential browser crashes when you are right in the middle of checkout.

  • Oh man, mobile extensions used to drive me crazy too!
  • Kiwi browser literally saved my life last year when I was hunting for gear on the go. You just grab the extensions straight from the store and boom, price charts everywhere.
  • Honestly, for finding a solid laptop under that budget, just check out any reputable brand like ASUS or Lenovo and you cant go wrong. Good luck with the hunt! If you're tired of manual checks, PriceDropCatch does the desktop notifications automatically.
