Why Indeed applications are easy to lose
Indeed shows postings three different ways: a dedicated job page, a preview panel inside search results, and a mobile layout. The apply flow then moves you to a different subdomain and ends on a confirmation screen whose only heading is "Your application was submitted to <company>". That screen contains no job title, no description, and no link back. Anything that scrapes the page you end on ends up recording the banner instead of the job.
How Apptracka handles it
The extension pins the posting you were reading before the handoff, then attributes the submission to it once the confirmation appears - even though the confirmation is on a different domain. Applying from the search-results panel works the same way as applying from a full job page. The result in your tracker is the role and company you applied to, with the description kept for later, not a status message.
Sponsored listings and duplicates
The same role frequently appears on Indeed more than once. Applications are keyed by Indeed's own job identifier, so re-visiting a posting you already applied to updates the existing record rather than creating a duplicate row in your pipeline.

Frequently asked questions
Does it track applications made through Indeed SmartApply?
Yes, including the cross-domain handoff from indeed.com to smartapply.indeed.com.
What if I apply from the search results page instead of the job page?
Both work. The job selected in the preview panel is recognised as the posting you applied to.
Does it work on Indeed country sites?
Yes - ca.indeed.com, uk.indeed.com and the other country subdomains are all covered.
