App needs an update
The app does not work correctly and desperately needs an update.
Awful
Links are often broken. They often open the wrong page, making it impossible to get to the correct page.
Please fix links
I have been using this app for years. It is the best one out there for woot. Within the past few months the product link will not open or it opens to the wrong product. It would be great if this could be fixed as I have now had to result in going to the website as this app is not working.
A great app that is missing an update
You can see the time and attention that went into this app. The layout and colors were fantastic. However the app frequently crashes due to the links not working. If the Developer is still paying attention, we’d love to continue supporting this app to do our wooting!
Used to be awesome
As of late this app seems to be broken. At the time of this review 5/4/2020 the app hasn’t worked in a few days. As this keeps happening on and off I suspect woot.com has changed something on their end. Woot.com has their own app so I suspect they don’t care about any 3rd party companies that might have a better app for browsing their various s websites.

Buggy app
To speak nothing of the deals/amazon/woot-pre-Amazon, this app is very buggy. Missing pics/descriptions, broken links, and inconsistent updates. Choose another app for wooting.
Coding is an issue on this app.
Looking for an extension cord showing on today’s deals 7/13/19. Click on the link and it takes me to a child’s necklace. This morning it took me to a computer monitor. This app is screwed up a lot lately. Someone needs to evaluate the person writing the code. I guess I need to delete it.
From awesome app to pile of crap.
The new changes make it impossible to tell exactly what section of Woot you’re buying from. Is it shirt woot? Computer woot? Electronics woot? Who knows! It’s just a list of seemingly random products displayed with minimal information.
For example, today’s Woot is a Roomba. You’d think that would be the first product listed in the app, right? Nope. It’s the third with no indication that it’s the daily woot at all.
Seriously, who thought this was a good design?

Update was a bad move.
After the latest update, the categories are not as intuitive and it crops the pictures slightly. There is also no way to enlarge and zoom the pictures anymore.
Why change a good thing
New app design not good. Old app had dated subtexts so were able to skip over things you’d already looked at. Now have to look at same stuff over and over again. Wastes a lot of time, and no longer worth effort. Will probably be deleting soon. Too bad.
Went from great to a hot mess
For years this was a great app for watching Woot’s deals. But this latest update? Woosah!
Gone are the categories and sub-categories that used to be there, now you have to scroll through everything in a broad category looking for what you want. In other words, if I’m looking for home theater stuff, I can’t just look for sub categories that look like they’ll match, I have to browse everything electronics related: power banks, smart phones, cameras, etc. It’s like they’ve gone from a store with aisles and neatly organized shelves to a store with lightly related items piled in rows.
I realize that these changes may be in response to changes that Woot! has made on their end. But I really have no incentive to use this app now over Woot!’s native app. If I’m going to scroll through a hot mess, it might as well be one with “appsclusive” deals.

Best woot app for iOS
I have used this app for years and find it’s the best on iOS. As of 2/7/19 I suddenly can’t zoom in on the shirt picture. That would be great to have back like the previous versions.
Woot+ Tab No Longer Works
Woot+ tab no longer works. Tried emailing support before rating but my email could not be received due to their server being down or rejecting my email.
Giving 2 stars since the initial Woot tab is work working still.
I’ll update my review once fixed!

App won't load
Recently, after having a problem loading the previous version of the app on several apple devices--iPads and iPhones, all running iOS 10.3.3--I updated the app. There is still a problem, as I get a message that the data cannot be read because it is not in the correct format. So the app is failing to load, providing only a black screen with the text appearing. I thought the problem might be related to content blockers that I use with Safari browser--Adguard and Firefox Focus. However, disabling them had no positive effect. This app was my most used Woot app, on a daily basis; everything connected, and all links just worked as they ought. Now everything is broken. The app is no longer worth my time.
Updated 4-20-18: The updated app now loads quickly and completely. Previous problems eliminated. Congrats to the developer. Rating upgraded from one star to four stars, because few things in life--or apps--are perfect.
Updated 5-29-18: App won't load. Black screen, JSON error. Appears to be a repeat of what happened a month ago. Prior to today, had been working again as it always had.
Update, same day: problem resolved, whatever it was.

Great and help as well as friendly app
Not so good
You can beat their deals all day long at Costco, Sam’s or your local Walmart. Did not use to be that way. Sorry. I pay attention to the small details.
Links don’t work on iPad
When you click pics on an iPad (version 9.3.5), I get the JSON error. Can it be fixed? My iPad Is "up to date " per iTunes.....can't get version 10....
Thank you
Thank you
Great
Best way to keep track of all the woot deals in one place. Thank you for keeping it updated!
Good app
Plus issues are fixed very quickly.
Update after response: JSON error again
Update 2: Fixed again. Thanks for the quick turnaround. I realize the app approvals take some time.
