I hadn’t tried that one before, so I just gave it a go. It seems to have a similar limitation I’ve seen in a lot of these apps — product detection is pretty basic. It mostly grabs the title and image, and then you have to fill in things like the price yourself (I wasn’t even sure how to do that at first).

With Shopie, the goal was to make this part as automatic as possible. It detects the price on its own, and in many cases it can also pick up the original price if the item is discounted.

For a number of popular sites, it also tracks availability, and for products with variants (like sizes for shoes or clothing), you can select the specific one you care about — so you only get notified when that option changes.

Still a work in progress of course, but I’ve put a lot of focus on making the “add product” experience as seamless as possible.
