Latest reviews of Invaluable Auctions: Bid Live app for iPhone and iPad
Very modern, great design. Easy to search, browse and watch the item I am looking for! Invaluable live bidding experience with this new app is word class
Search is beyond useless. When you search, then click on an item to view, then return to the search - the entire search is re-ordered. So you have to start over every time you return from viewing an item. Debilitating on large search sets. You cant hold click and save images. You cant zoom in on images. Has a lot to learn from other mobile auction apps. Also you cant sort searches and you cant do anything but the most primitive searches. This isnt new...please figure it out.
Can this app be fix???? Dont log me out every time I leave the app and every time I am on the search and look at an item and go back to he search it reloads and randomize all of the item so I loose track of what I have seen??? Please fix these its been more than a year like these and a lot of people complain!
Frustrating to have to rejoin live events manually when the app loses a connection. The issue could be bandwidth at the auction house. However rather than having to manually rejoin, often involving returned to a watched item first, is not good UX - the app should present an option so it would automatically re-establish the connection. When viewing a return category search the app will reload a page while you are scrolling at which point the items are re-randomized. This also is poor UX. When scrolling a returned list the user should be able to continue their review of items in the original retuned list order. Dont randomize this during the users session.
In the middle of auctions it just freezes. Bad technology, given all the $$$ people spend on auction items.
