This is very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very good sire

Response from developer

Awesome. Thanks for the review.

Purposeful spam

They purposely repeatedly spam alerts for bad items / deals and the only way to turn off specific items from alerting is paying them money. Clearly intentional to try and annoy you into paying.

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for the feedback. We try our best to offer great experience to all users. We have recently added highstock alarms and lower frequency of regular alerts for all users, and we also price max to avoid expensive listings. As retailers make changes, we make changes to offer better convenience. For any other feedback or details please email support; thanks again.

Missing big features

The app itself does work but that’s as far as the pros go. You will get notified multiple times for the same drop. Even if you have alerts for Pokemon turned off, you will get alerts. I downloaded this app to get cards for retail. For some reason the app will notify you about products at resell prices. Honestly the worst thing that made me write this review in the first place is because the app started to give me alerts for EBAY RESELLERS. The whole point I installed was to get notified about retailers restocking at retail price. Absolutely ridiculous, uninstalling.

Thanks for the feedback. I noticed you're not on the latest version of the app released, consider updating as there are newly added fixes. Also if you turn notifications off for a category it will stop all notifications for that category. For eBay we share under market deals and specific products can be ignored in latest app version on premium. Please contact support for more description, we aim to improve.

Hi

I saw your thing in the app saying rate your app, this is amazing and has great deals. I don’t know if the other guy that rate it a 1 is on something but this app is amazing

best restock app ever

i was able to get my first ever successful order from pokemon center because of this app. 2 delta reign etbs and one booster box all thanks to this app.

Response from developer

Awesome. Glad to hear. We hope to keep making it easier for users to win the race for in demand products.

Frustrating

The app at its core is a good concept but doesn’t quite hit the mark. You will get multiple push notifications for the same items that have been sold out for months on bestbuy or target, or links to shady reseller sites. I think its value comes in on release days, as I was able to get a timely notification of when the product was live on bestbuy but other than that each thing is sold out (even if clicking as soon as the push notification comes through). I want to like this app more but I can’t recommend it.

Alerts for no stock

Immediately respond to restock notice to find no stock every time. The app has no value

English OP is not under premium and can’t stop Pokémon notifications

First off I don’t like Pokémon. And there is no way to turn off notifications.

Also no way to turn off notifications for specific items. If I already bought something, I don’t want more notifications!

Lastly they put all English OP under premium? I’m uninstalling.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. We do not put all English OP under premium. English OP has 2 to 3 drops per new release, other products are more common. Fix is made to avoid cross category delayed notifications. Also we recently added an option to ignore products in the latest update, check it out.

Good

Fantastic

Response from developer

Awesome. Thank you for the review.

Takes you to Amazon.com

Won’t take me straight to the app, every freaking time you take me to the website I miss out. Not a good app at all.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Please email support with exact item and description. If there are any issues found, we will fix them. Thank you.

Don’t pay

The app is good occasionally decent but hardly ever, paying for premium is an absolute waste of money

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. We aim to add more features and abilities to make the subscription worth even more. But as always the app is free and premium is optional.

Best chance of getting MSRP on OPTCG and Pokémon

While most of the posts are gone within seconds, there are a few times that I’ve been able to secure Bandai products before the bots scalp everything. Wouldn’t have been able to get this stuff for MSRP otherwise!

Doesn’t help

90% of alerts clicked instantly were already out of stock. Don’t pay for this

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for the feedback. Our alerts occur extremely fast, giving users a chance to buy in-demand products. Unfortunately, when items are extremely popular, many people try to purchase at the same time, which can make checkout difficult. This experience is common across popular products and usually improves only when retailers perform larger or more frequent restocks. We’re sorry to hear about the experience you've shared. While we can’t control retailer inventory or how many people attempt to buy an item, our goal is to provide fast, reliable alerts so every user has the best possible chance at success. Thank you for the feedback, and if there is a specific product you find issue is please email support and we can look into tuning the logic for better experiences.

No thanks

Alerts work and are timely. You can’t adjust what stock you’re alerted to. I’m good on the 400% msrp. Not interested in an app sending me notifications to buy a perfect order booster bundle for $50

Response from developer

Hello, thanks for the feedback. We're working on a feature set to allow users to have more control over their notification preferences, allowing them to limit notifications for specific products. Some of the alerts we source from are above MSRP and below market, which is a preference; we always prioritize base prices from retailers. I think this small detail will become much better once users have the power to decide what they do or do not want to be pinged by. For now, you can clearly see prices listed and ignore pings that are not of interest. We will work to make the user experience better, thank you again for the feedback.

Pretty helpful

I’ve been able to catch a restock or two because of this app.

🤖

In this current Pokemon climate with bots so ubiquitous, this app is pretty much a notification for drops on products that YOU CANT get your hands on and reserved for resellers. I don’t necessarily attribute this to a bad app as it does what it is purported to do. Would be cool to have an interactive feature where users can leave comments and interact with each other. Then again, it’ll just be a bunch of us normies complaining with one another about 🤖🤖🤖

Useless

Useless app. By the time they alert you, whatever you’re looking for is gone.

Response from developer

Hello, thanks for the feedback. For Amazon alerts we’ve added Add To Cart support on some listings so the offer matches exactly. If you see incorrect prices or sold out links please email our support address. Also looks like you may be on an older build which doesn't have added alerts, so updating will improve alerts and will give you our new UI changes.

Trash app don’t waste your time

Claims places have product but nothing is ever there. A lot of repeat notifications 10-20 minutes apart for the same place and every time there is nothing…

It’s great to have

The app is great to have to know when the drops are happening and when it drops you just gotta be fast but sometime when it drop, it’s already botted

Response from developer

Thanks for the review. We try to evolve and provide easy alerts for users even when the landscape changes we continually are making changes to combat bad experience factors. Thanks again

PokeRestock app

This app is definitely a no go
