DealNews Deals & Coupons App ١٧+

Beware the Deal Addiction

I honestly check Dealnews repeatedly throughout the day. It's one of my top five apps. The app design is very clever. It allows you to complete all the steps to purchase the featured deal (or research it) all within the app. Of course you can save deals to research or think about without having to scroll through all the new deals to re-find it. And you can notify friends via email, twitter and Facebook. I would like the ability to check for updated deals on items I added to my saved list directly from the list but that's a very minor critique for such a great app. The feature that adds the discount codes at checkout is just tops. I highly recommend this app. It's saved me hundreds of dollars. And you can't beat that!

Thanks so much for the feedback and so glad to hear we helped to save you some money! Happy Deal Hunting!!

Terrible new update design

How’s this for specific feedback... I used to have one place/feed to go to find search results. Now I have either go to each individual search, click and wait for results (too tedious and time consuming) or go to “my interests” ( too broad and again time consuming). For example, tools/home improvement is too broad a topic, but craftsman or dewalt is more specific and useful. And yes I understand I can still set up a search for those values - but I have to click 99 searches to get 99 set of search results instead of one feed with the results from those 99 searches.... How’s that????

Don’t update if you’re a current user. Application designers just ruined one of my favorite apps that I have used for years. Apparently they did not do any user acceptance testing before rolling this monstrosity out to the public. DealNews owners, demand that they roll these changes back to the prior version and bring in users in the design phase next time before making changes.

We have had lots of feedback about wanting one place to see all the alerts. The design team is working on how to integrate that into the app..so it is on the backlog. I can't give an estimate on the time frame with completing that as we have had quite a bit of feedback rolling in..but I will say that is one of the hotter items...so I expect it to be somewhere near the top. We do listen to our users..feel free to reach out to us anytime.

Love it... but...

The only thing is dislike about the app is that if you go into a deal and come back out of it you're put back at the top of the list instead of where you last were.

Same goes for if you leave the app and return. Like if you get a text message and read it, then come back to the app. It's just a little tedious is all when it comes to it taking you back to the top.

Also, while actually scrolling through the lists the app will refresh and once again put me all the way back at the top. It’s so annoying trying to find my place again! Especially if I’m pretty far down the list.
