## What is Aucword?

Stop losing auctions you forgot about.

Aucword is a smarter way to watch eBay auctions. Connect your eBay account, and your entire watchlist syncs automatically with real-time countdowns, price alerts, and notifications that actually tell you when to act.

Built by a sports card collector who got tired of missing auctions that ended at 2am.

LIVE COUNTDOWN ALERTS
Aucword sends smart notifications at just the right moments; hours before, minutes before, and right as an auction is about to close. Each alert shows the item name, current price, and exactly how much time is left. No more guessing, no more "I forgot to check."

LOCK SCREEN LIVE ACTIVITY
Your hottest auctions scroll right on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island using iOS Live Activities. See countdowns, prices, and ending times without even opening the app. Glance down and you know exactly what's happening.

HOME SCREEN WIDGETS
Add Aucword widgets to your Home Screen for an at-a-glance view of your most active auctions. Small, medium, and large sizes available — each showing live countdown timers and current prices.

TARGET ALERTS
Set a target price on any item and Aucword will ping you if the auction is still hitting that sweet spot. Perfect for Buy It Now listings or auctions that aren't getting much action yet.

AUTOMATIC WATCHLIST SYNC
Connect your eBay account once and your watchlist stays in sync. New items you watch on eBay show up in Aucword automatically. Items that end get cleared. No manual importing.

WHY COLLECTORS LOVE IT
Sports card collectors watch dozens of auctions at once — PSA graded cards, rookie lots, hobby boxes. eBay's native notifications are noisy and easy to miss. Aucword cuts through the clutter with only the alerts that matter, timed to when you actually need to decide.

Works great for any eBay buyer: sneakers, vintage electronics, vinyl records, watches, trading cards, or anything you're hunting on eBay.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Sign up with your email
2. Connect your eBay account
3. Your watchlist syncs instantly
4. Set alerts on the items you care about most
5. Tap any item to jump straight to eBay when you're ready to bid

DESIGNED TO STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY
Dark, clean interface. No ads. No subscription fees. No in-app purchases. Aucword earns a small commission through the eBay Partner Network when you shop through the app, at no extra cost to you.

FREE TO USE
Aucword is completely free. No paywalls, no premium tiers, no trial periods. Just download and connect your eBay account.

PRIVACY FIRST
Your eBay credentials are handled securely through eBay's official OAuth. Aucword never stores your eBay password. Your watchlist data stays private.

### 5/5 — ADHD problems no more!

*2026-04-10*

I can barely stay focused enough to do things like switch my laundry to the dryer or take things out of the broiler before they burn, let alone manage multiple auctions at once. This app solves that problem for me so I can stop kicking myself for spacing out and missing out on stuff I actually want to buy!

### 5/5 — Useful w/ Clean UI

*2026-04-09*

Love countdown and price updates are clutch. Both are useful without being overwhelming . The lock screen updates are a nice touch too. If you’re even slightly serious about eBay this helps a lot

### 5/5 — eBay made easy

*2026-04-08*

I have all my items alerting me when they are coming up and I can ignore the ones that go over my budget.  

All from my Home Screen!!!
