Ratings and reviews

App is a joke. Before, if you subscribe to a listing and the product got sold, it would replace the price with "Sold". It doesn't do that anymore and you have to click on the price for it to show that it was already sold. App was barebone back then but at least it worked properly. Now it looks better but barely functions.

The app at first was ok but navigating is annoying; you have to remember what you were looking at specifically because when you for instance click on a category then that item you get a list of them without a proper sorting option then you have to shuffle through the prices to see what you want. It's a different experience than in the official website.

The app used to be awesome. You could browse through devices by filtering manufacture, device type, carrier, etc. They have since updated and removed all of that. Now all you get is an unorganized list of phones or tablets with no way to sort or filter. You can't list devices to sell either. It's a shame as I've purchase devices through the app before and it worked great. Not worth downloading anymore.
