Did Autoview shut down?

No. An old Manifest V2 extension listing was retired when Google ended V2 support, which is what some "alternatives" posts mistook for a shutdown. The rebuilt Manifest V3 extension is live on the Chrome Web Store, and the webhook trading platform has kept running throughout.

Is Autoview only a Chrome extension?

No. The webhook platform is the actual product, and it places orders server-side whether or not a browser is open. The extension is one way to send alerts; anything that can POST to your private Autoview URL can drive it.

Is Autoview dead? No. It's live in 2026.

Q: Is Autoview only for crypto?

No. Autoview runs strategies on forex through OANDA, futures through Tradovate, stocks through Alpaca, and more than a dozen crypto exchanges. That multi-asset spread is the main thing the crypto-bot alternatives leave out.

Autoview

"Autoview reached end of life in January 2025." That line sits inside a competitor's "best Autoview alternatives" roundup, and for a lot of traders it's the first thing they ever read about us. It's wrong. But it grew out of something real, so let me show you exactly what happened.

Google killed Manifest V2. Every Chrome extension had to move to Manifest V3 or get pulled from the store, and thousands of them disappeared in that sweep. Autoview began as a V2 extension, so the old listing went away on schedule with the rest. That part is true. "Autoview shut down" is the part someone invented on top of it.

Here is what is actually running today.

The extension

Rebuilt on Manifest V3, on the Chrome Web Store right now, updated regularly. If you clicked an old bookmark and hit a dead page, you found the retired V2 listing. Not the product.

The platform

This is the part the "is it dead" posts miss completely. Autoview executes through a webhook, and the webhook does not care whether a browser is open anywhere. You send an alert to your private Autoview URL, we parse it, the order goes to your exchange. Most people send that alert from TradingView. You don't have to. Anything that can POST to a URL can drive it. The browser was always optional. The execution engine is the actual product, and it has not stopped running.

The activity

"Dead" is a claim about activity. Thousands of verified accounts are connected, and live trade webhooks flow through around the clock. We shipped guided setup wizards this spring. We're still adding exchanges. That is not a graveyard.

And it was never crypto-only

This is the real reason the "alternatives" framing misleads. Most of those alternatives are crypto bots. Autoview runs your strategies on forex through OANDA, futures through Tradovate, stocks through Alpaca, and more than a dozen crypto exchanges including Crypto.com, Kraken, Bybit, OKX, and Coinbase. If you trade more than one asset class out of TradingView, that spread is the whole point, and a crypto-only bot cannot match it.

Don't trust me. Check.

I would rather you verify this than believe a page on our own site:

Open the Autoview listing on the Chrome Web Store and read the last-updated date.
Look at autoview.com and the pricing page. Both show the live exchange list.
Make a free account and fire a test order at a demo or testnet exchange. Several connections are free, so you can watch a fill happen end to end without putting up real money.

An old extension listing got retired in a migration that hit the entire Chrome store, and a competitor turned that into an obituary. The extension is live. The platform is live. If you read otherwise, look at who was selling you the alternative.
