*2024-03-11, version 21.10.0*

Downloaded so that I could set a notification when the price reaches a certain point!

App says thats NOT possible because the item might not always be available!

Ehm?!… so what’s the point then?!

Want to delete my account but it will not let me!

Absolute rubbish!

### 1/5 — Avoid at all costs!

*2023-11-16*

This app is extremely inaccurate!
Within minutes of searching the internet my self , I had found at least 5 websites cheaper than what the idealo app could provide!
Utter crap and complete waste of time, it wouldn’t surprise me if idealo was making a percentage out of free advertising!
Steer clear of these charlatans.
