Done from Servers: open one, check who you want to watch and hit Follow. From then on they show up under the Tracking tab, with their status (online/offline) updating on its own.

Each account has a limit on how many players it can follow at once, based on its plan (see the Plans & billing guide). To follow someone new once you're full, unfollow someone else first.

While the Tracking tab is open, data refreshes on its own -how often depends on your plan: every 5 minutes on Scout, every minute on Tracker, every 30 seconds on Overwatch.

• Favorite: mark the players you care about most so they stand out in the list.
• Note: a free-text field per player -handy for jotting down their base, clan, or anything you want to remember.
• Linked SteamID: BattleMetrics doesn't always expose a player's SteamID. If you paste it in by hand (grab it from Steam's in-game overlay with Shift+Tab), the card starts showing their bans and account age too, plus a direct link to check them on the Steam Profile tab.

If you track a lot of people, sort them into folders: by server, by clan, however you like. Hit a player's folder icon, type a name (or pick one you already have) and save.

A row with your folders shows up above the list: tap one to see only those players, or leave All to see them grouped by folder with how many are online in each. With a folder selected you can rename or remove it -removing it doesn't unfollow anyone, it just takes them out of the folder.

Each tracked player has its own alerts panel (bell icon): turn on a sound + browser notification for when they connect, disconnect, or both.

These only fire while the site is open. To get them with the site closed, connect Discord: see the Discord alerts guide.

If a player has been offline for more than X minutes (you choose how many), the app flags them as being in a "raid window": they've been gone a while, good time to move. You're notified once, right as they enter the window -not repeatedly while they stay there.

Analyzes that player's offline history from the last 30 days and works out the 4-hour block where they've been offline most often, along with a percentage: how much of that specific window they've spent offline, on average, across the analyzed days.

Needs at least 2 days of history to calculate; with less than that, nothing shows up yet.

If a player spends less time offline than is humanly normal, day after day, this warning shows up IN ADDITION to the raid window (not instead of it): they're probably using a bot or script to never disconnect. Check in-game to confirm -it's a signal, not proof.
