We’ve created a new version of the Woot! app, and we think it’s miles above the current one. Here are some the big things that are different, and, dare we say, BETTER:
What the heck is Digital Crap? Well, it’s a daily game or a puzzle or something silly to waste your time, and once you play it, you might have the chance to buy a Bag of Crap. And if you DON’T get the BOC, we’ll show you something cool so you don’t feel too bad.
So download this new puppy TODAY:
And hey, we’re not done with it yet. We’ll be adding more features and improvements over the next few weeks. And also hey, if you like it, feel free to give us a nice rating in the App Store or on Google Play. THANKS!
We do get requests for search. What would you search for? We’re a bit stumped on how to make it not feel like a complete failure if we aren’t currently selling the item you’re searching for.
Could the search results show items similar to whatever someone is searching for? Like if they searched for a Dell laptop the search results could bring up other laptop brands currently on offer, and so on. Or maybe it could suggest categories based on search terms. In other words, while Woot may not have a specific item at the moment, it could still lead the user to something they may be interested in.
Ahh I C it. Was looking for that yellow banner. Usually just click the notification when it arrives but the app/phone hiccupped and i didn’t get there. Thank You! So far the update is nice, good work.
So far it seems to mostly have the same problems as the old app. “Keep me logged in” checkbox doesn’t work.
Amazon login is glitchy. Each category is a dumping ground for ALL the items in the category, way too many to look at. The sad thing is that the app two versions back was really good, I don’t know why it was ever changed.
Ok, I’m kind of liking the new app but there is a navigation issue/feature that I don’t like.
From any product page or the home screen when you click on a link that takes you to a forum page, the app back button and the Android back button take you up a level in the forums instead of returning to the previous page viewed.
The Keep Me Logged In is so messed up. We are gutting authentication/login in January and rewriting it from scratch. Don’t get me started about why it’s so hard for us to do when it is so easy for others. It makes me mad.
