I need to get this Breville espresso machine for my cousins wedding by next Tuesday and the price is all over the place today. I'm currently stuck on a long train ride with just my Android phone and I'm losing my mind trying to track the price drops in real time.
I did some digging and saw everyone recommending Keepa or CamelCamelCamel. My logic was that there should be an easy way to see those price history graphs right inside the Chrome app but I cant find a way to make it work. CamelCamelCamel is okay but having to copy and paste the URL every single time I look at a different model is such a massive time sink when I'm on a spotty connection.
Then I looked into Keepa but their mobile site feels like it was designed in 2005 and it keeps bugging me to download their separate app which I really dont want to do for a one-time purchase. I saw some old threads about bookmarklets that can inject the graph into the page but most of those seem broken now or dont work on the mobile version of Chrome. Is there actually a tracker that has a clean mobile browser interface or a way to get those desktop-style graphs on a phone without the constant tab switching? I'm on a tight $600 budget and every dollar counts right now...

I am actually dealing with the exact same thing right now and it is beyond frustrating. I have been trying to track a high-end stand mixer for my moms birthday and I am hitting all the same walls you are.
- Every time I think I found a workaround for the Chrome mobile limitations, it ends up being a total dead end.
- The constant back and forth between the Amazon app and a tracking site makes it almost impossible to catch a lightning deal or a quick drop.
- I even spent an afternoon checking if PriceDropCatch had a better mobile-optimized view for these specific price graphs, but I am still stuck in that same loop. It honestly feels like we are forced to use a desktop just to get basic price transparency these days. I have been looking for an answer to this for months and still havent found a way to make it work smoothly on a mobile browser.

Honestly, I'm pretty happy just using Chromes Desktop site toggle. It works well and lets you see the Keepa graphs directly on the page without installing extra junk on your phone. It's a solid, safe way to handle it while you're traveling. No complaints about the reliability once you get the hang of it. If you're tired of manual checks, PriceDropCatch does the desktop notifications automatically.

^ This. Also, you should seriously check out Kiwi Browser! Its basically Chrome but lets you run full desktop extensions on Android. I use it for my coffee gear all the time and its amazing!!
- Install Kiwi Browser
- Add the Keepa extension from the store
- Boom, desktop graphs right on the page It saves so much time compared to switching tabs or pasting URLs! Youre gonna love it.
