Dexter Price Alert for Pc

The core concept of this app works. You can add items easily, change the settings of the items, and it lets you know when the price changes. I made $80 in one week by getting an alert that a monitor that I had just just purchased went on sale for $80 less than what I had just bought it for. I purchased it on the spot and returned the first one I had bought. I received the new monitor within a day of returning the old one and got my return within a week. With that said, the design of this app is awful. As others have mentioned, the settings for each product added is accessed through the share button, which is very unintuitive. Took me a while to find. But what’s even worse is that while the premium version of the app works, it won’t let you restore your purchase. This means you can’t use the premium version on another device or even the same device after uninstalling the app (which I did twice). I’ve spent $15 on this app that I should’ve only needed to spend $5 on. Obviously, the price has been worth it, but this isn’t a reasonable way to make money on an app. If you think the app is worth more, charge more. Don’t make a “restore purchase” button that doesn’t do anything and make people buy the app multiple times. I’d happily pay $15 a year for this app if the restore purchase button worked and I could use it on multiple devices and you fixed the settings button icon. Please fix these issues. This app has the potential to be great.

I purchased the plus version of this app and within the first week got a lightening deal to save on some face cream that essentially paid for the app. The deal was only available for an hour first thing in the morning so without the plus version, I would have missed it (my understanding of the free version is that they only check for price changes once a day). I’ll be thrilled if I can catch my cat’s food at a lower price. Having said that, EVERY time I use this app I get frustrated with it. I have it on my phone and have tried for my iPad but it doesn’t recognize that I have the plus version there. I hit “restore purchase” and the screen doesn’t change. I hit “settings” and literally the only thing that allows me to set is my email address. Maddening. We’ll see if customer support replies. Yesterday I was trying to access price history and could not find it anywhere. I finally read in the reviews that it’s accessed through the “share” button. Why?? So overall this is clunky and not user friendly. I’ll see whether it improves this year to decide whether to renew. It has the potential to be great but at the moment I kind of hate it.

I've been using this app for nearly a year. It's definitely saved me money. When it works it's 5 stars. The reason I'm giving it 3 is because sometimes the notifications go a little crazy. Like 2-6 back to back for the same product crazy. I only need one. The other improvements that would make this app amazing would be if the tracking tracked just the product I'm interested in. For instance I'm looking at a particular pair of shoes, New Balance whatever size 9 Black for $90. I set my alert for $79. I might get an alert the next day for $55. Excitedly I hit buy now and find out the $55 shoes are size 6 Blue and the shoes I want are still $90. So it's impossible to really get alerts for products that have options. Another improvement that I'd like to see is for the tracking to stick with the product and seller I'm looking to buy from. I'm watching X product for $50. I want an alert at $45. Later that day I get an alert that it's 45. Yay! Buy now! Oh wait that $45 is from a different seller that's not Prime but charges $5 for shipping. Or even worse the price pops for $35. I'm really excited but then find out that's for a used product. I don't want alerts for used products or products with shipping if the product I'm tracking is new and with Prime. All that said it's still a good app. I hope to see some improvements in future updates.

If you only want to track 3 times, this is the app for you. I downloaded this and liked everything it had to offer so I shelled out the $4 for unlimited wishlist and no ads. Having a price history on top of that is a huge bonus. Unfortunately, the app won't upgrade to give me those features. Uninstall/reinstall, repurchase, etc and nothing. The app says it'll restore my purchase for free, but I haven't seen it happen yet. If "customer service" helps me out, this is an easy 5 star app.. but this app hasn't had an upgrade in a year, so I'm not keeping my hopes up. TL;DR: Don't buy the premium. App needs an update before you can rely on it
