Amazon Tracker (iOS 18-26)

Share an Amazon product, tap the shortcut, and you get the full price history before you decide whether that “deal” is actually a deal. Amazon Tracker pulls a chart from Keepa, from CamelCamelCamel, or both at once, so you can see whether today’s price is genuinely low or just dressed up to look that way.

What this shortcut does

Amazon’s listed price tells you nothing about the last six months. The shortcut closes that gap by reading the product you shared, detecting which Amazon store it came from, and fetching the matching price-history chart. Keepa and CamelCamelCamel are the two best-known trackers for this, and each draws a graph of how the price has moved over time. You can pull one chart, the other, or stack both side by side when you want a second opinion. There’s also an option to add a product to your Keepa watch list and review the items you’re already tracking.

Getting it set up

1. Tap Add Shortcut on this page to open it in the Shortcuts app, then Add Shortcut again at the bottom of the preview.
2. Install the free Amazon app if you don’t already have it, since that’s where most people share product links from.
3. Open any product, hit the system share button, and pick Amazon Tracker from the Share Sheet.

Running the shortcut

This one is built to run from the Share Sheet, not from the Shortcuts grid. Find a product in the Amazon app or Safari, tap the share icon, and scroll to Amazon Tracker. It expands shortened links like amzn.to automatically, pulls the product’s ASIN, and works out the country store from the URL, so a UK or German listing shows that region’s chart rather than defaulting to the US. When you launch it, you choose whether to view Keepa, CamelCamelCamel, or both. CamelCamelCamel opens in a web view to get around its network restrictions, while Keepa renders its chart directly.

Quick answers

Do I have to pay for anything to see a chart?

No. Reading the price history on either tracker is free. The paid side is Keepa’s own subscription, which unlocks extras like alerts and sales-rank data, but the basic chart this shortcut shows costs nothing.

Why does it ask me to log in for tracking?

Adding a product to a watch list and reviewing your saved items both run against your Keepa account, so that piece needs you signed in. Viewing a one-off chart doesn’t.

My country’s Amazon shows an error. What gives?

Coverage depends on the trackers, not the shortcut. Keepa handles stores like the US, UK, DE, FR, JP, CA, IT, ES, IN and MX; CamelCamelCamel covers a similar list plus AU. Stores neither one supports, such as amazon.sa or amazon.ae, return a clear “not supported” message instead of failing silently.
