### 1/5 — Cant delete it

*2026-08-12, version 3.23.0*

Cant delete it

### 1/5 — Offers 3 free snipes but actually provides none

*2026-04-14, version 3.21.0*

App immediately deleted after being unable to use any of the claimed free snipes.

### 1/5 — App is bad

*2026-04-02, version 3.21.0*

app has reduced functionality and is very glitchy. wouldn’t let me edit my snipe at all after setting it initially and i lost the bid lol

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-03-17, version 3.21.0*

Tried logging into my app today and it doesn’t work. Nothing loads. Tried emailing support and got no response.

### 1/5 — eBay item numbers

*2026-02-22, version 3.21.0*

Your search function is garbage

### 5/5 — Glitched Out

*2026-01-22, version 3.19.0*

I have been using for many years with overall success. This recent update has brought about a particularly bothersome issue when updating a snipe. You are caught in a perpetual loop when trying to save and the only method of returning to the Home Screen is through deletion of app and re-installation. Needless to say this is not very efficient nor programmatically sound.

UPDATE: THANK YOU FOR NOTIFYING AND CORRECTING ISSUE.

### 1/5 — The upgrade is a downgrade
