Frequently asked questions

Short answers. In full — in the help centre.

Why didn't I get an alert?

Three usual causes: the phone was never granted notification permission; a battery saver is closing the app in the background (Xiaomi, Huawei, Samsung); or the filter is new and still recording its baseline. Alerts are stored in the app either way — the Notifications button always has them.

What does “nothing yet” mean?

The filter is still on its first check. We record what already exists and send nothing — otherwise a new filter would fire hundreds of alerts in its first minute. From the next check onwards it alerts normally.

My link was rejected — why?

Either it points at a single listing (we need a results page), or the site isn't supported, or the link carried no filters at all. The third is the common one: set the filters on the site, check they appear in the address bar, and copy it again.

How fast will an alert reach me?

As fast as the filter is checked — every 10 minutes by default. You can change that in Application Settings, down to the floor we allow.

Does it work when the app is closed?

Yes. Our server does the checking, not your phone — the phone only receives the finished alert.

How many filters can I have?

It depends on your plan — 2 on the free one. Deleting an old filter frees a slot, and the plans are here: plans & pricing.

Does it cost anything?

There is a free plan that stays free, and a new account starts with a trial. You only move to a paid plan by choosing to — the details are here: plans & pricing.

What about my data?

Your email, a hashed password, your filters and your device's push token — nothing else. The app carries no analytics or advertising SDK. In full: the privacy policy.

How do I delete my account?

In the app: Account → Delete account. In a browser: the account deletion page.
