Saved a product? Check price alerts before your shopping trip

Saving a product and registering notifications are separate steps. Check this browser’s status and understand what a recorded price-drop alert can tell you.

Save your list, then check this browser

The bell on a K-Tracker product page saves that product to your account. It does not automatically switch on notifications. Open Saved products from the link below, sign in, and check the browser alert section. Registration is checked for the account you are using and the browser you are using now. An alert registered on your laptop does not confirm registration on your travel phone. Your saved list remains useful even when notifications are unavailable.

Permission and registration are separate

Your browser needs to allow notifications, and K-Tracker needs a saved registration for that browser and account. Allowing permission alone does not prove both are ready. Choose Enable on this browser if it is unregistered. If notifications are blocked, change this site’s notification permission in your browser settings, return, and check the status again. If the permission prompt is dismissed, registration is not complete. Some browser modes do not support push; the page explains that instead of reporting success. A failed check also means the status is unknown, rather than definitely off.

Using an iPhone or iPad?

Apple documents web push for Home Screen web apps on iOS 16.4 or later; WebKit describes the same requirement for iPadOS 16.4 or later. Add K-Tracker to your Home Screen, open its icon, and check the account and alert status there. Permission is requested when you choose the enable button, not by saving a product. If alerts remain unavailable, keep using your saved list. This explains the platform requirement; delivery on your particular device is not guaranteed.

A price alert is a recorded change

K-Tracker’s current alert task is scheduled daily at about 08:10 Korea time. It compares a product’s recorded KRW price with the saved reference price and requires a price observation within the last 48 hours. It is not an instant alert for every store price change. Registration does not guarantee delivery: your device settings and network still matter. A currency estimate changing by itself is not a recorded KRW price drop.

Before visiting a store

Open the product again and check its retailer, recorded price date, exact size and offer quantity. A retailer’s online listing is not a guarantee of the price at your chosen branch, and an alert does not reserve stock. Confirm availability, any coupon or multi-buy requirements, and the checkout amount with the store. Use the saved list to prepare what to check; treat the price record as dated information, not a receipt or a confirmed delivery quote.
