hotukdeals - Deals & Discounts 12+

This is one of the great apps ever but has one problem.

Hi I’m using this app everyday. This is the best app to find good deals if you want to save some money. But only problem of this app is it won’t keep the last status correctly. If I press the home button while hukd app opens and open another app then if I come back to hukd app, it refreshes and going back to beginning. Please fix this issue. It’s very annoying because I have to scroll down again to find my old deal.

Cheers

Hello! It was an iOS 13 issue, but we were able to find a workaround :) All should be fine now!

Where’s the highlights tab gone?

It appears that the highlights tab has been replaced with for you; tailored by tracking you I’m led to believe, whilst this is unwelcome I can appreciate the logic. However, for me it has removed the USP in my opinion. I could trawl through the highlights tab and find things that I never knew I needed, and rarely using hot and commented tabs. And if I wanted to find the best deal for something I can do it myself. Please, can you bring back the highlights back so I can enjoy impulsively buying things that I did and didn’t need.

Edit: After feedback from the developers, I was able to have my highlights tab back. Happy to have it back the way I like it.

I really feel like the tailored “for you” wasn’t helpful for me; the deals were scatter gunned and didn’t feel relevant for me. There was some really random things being suggested for me.

Hi,

If you don't want the "for you" tab anymore you can just disable the personalization in the privacy settings of the app. :)

What an awful site and app

Updated: Decided to give it another go to see how things have changed. It’s got worse. I decided after a little while of reading and replying to posts to post some items, these were quickly removed by mods who reposted the same items under their names!!! When I politely complained about this I was banned from the site last week. Says it all really when a sites own mods steal content from its own community. Stay away.

Original: Having used this site for a long time and seen the implementation of the pepper expert (or so called experts) programme it has unfortunately gone downhill to the point I no longer see it as usable. The site is full of deals that save a penny just so the experts and people who want to be experts can get their stats up, the community forum is full of people that ask questions which a simple bing/google search would answer and there are some quite poisonous people on there too. Deleted my account and urge others to do the same.
