Yes. QueryWatch, an independent Google Search Console app for iPhone and Android, runs URL inspections from your phone. The free tier includes 5 inspections a day; Pro has unlimited inspections and can push an alert when a watched URL’s indexing status changes.

How does checking a page work?

URL inspection is the Search Console feature that reports how Google sees one URL on a property you own, including whether it is indexed. QueryWatch reads it through Google’s public Search Console API, the same way every third-party Search Console app does. Google has never released an official Search Console app, so there is no first-party option on a phone other than the website.

You pick a property, enter or choose a page on it, and run the inspection. You can only inspect URLs on properties the signed-in Google account can access in Search Console. For background on the feature itself, see URL inspection and request indexing.

What is free and what is Pro?

Feature Free Pro
URL inspections 5 a day Unlimited
Watchlist 5 items Unlimited
Alerts for watched-URL indexing changes Not included Included
Sitemap list Included Included, plus submit and delete
Properties Every property, no site limit Every property, no site limit

Pro costs $4.99 a month or $14.99 a year. New subscribers can start the yearly plan with a first month for $0.99. There is no free trial; see whether QueryWatch has a free trial.

Can it tell me when a page stops being indexed?

On Pro, yes. Add a URL to the watchlist and QueryWatch sends a push notification when its indexing status changes. Alerts are computed by the developer’s own relay server in Germany every six hours, and each alert stores an evidence snapshot of what it saw. See what alerts Pro sends.

Is it safe to connect my Google account?

Sign-in uses Google’s own sign-in sheet with read-only scopes: openid, userinfo.email and webmasters.readonly. On iPhone the refresh token stays in the Keychain; on Android, Google Play services hold the grant and the app never receives a refresh token. A credential leaves the phone only if push alerts are turned on. More detail in where your Google token goes.

Can I try it without signing in?

Yes. Demo Mode runs the whole app, including Pro screens, on four sample properties without signing in. Demo numbers are sample data, not real traffic.

Can ChatGPT or Claude check indexing for me instead?

Not directly. An AI assistant cannot read your Search Console account unless you paste or upload data into the chat. For a live answer on one page, URL inspection in Search Console, on the website or in an app such as QueryWatch, is the source. See can ChatGPT or Claude read Search Console data.

Requirements

QueryWatch requires iOS 26 or later on iPhone, or Android 12 or later on Android. It is available on the App Store and Google Play, and is not affiliated with Google.

Questions

Can QueryWatch tell me whether a page is indexed?

Yes. It runs a Search Console URL inspection for a page on a property your Google account can access, from an iPhone or Android phone.

How many URL inspections can I run for free?

The free tier includes 5 URL inspections a day. Pro has unlimited URL inspections.

Can QueryWatch alert me when a page drops out of the index?

Yes, on Pro. Pro sends push alerts for watched-URL indexing changes, as well as traffic drops and spikes, a new query entering the top 10 and sitemap errors.

Does QueryWatch need write access to inspect a URL?

No. Sign-in uses read-only scopes (openid, userinfo.email, webmasters.readonly). The write scope is requested only when a Pro user submits or deletes a sitemap.
