    One account, whichever phone you carry

    Underpriced listings don't wait for you to reach a desk. eSnipe is on the App Store and Google Play, and it's the same account either way — sign in and the searches you built on the web push to your phone.

    Where iOS and Android actually differ

    The alert is identical on both platforms — title, price, condition, and a tap straight through to eBay. What differs is how each OS hands it to you, and each ships a default that holds alerts back.

    • iOS: accept the notification prompt, and allow eSnipe in any Focus mode
    • iOS: keep eSnipe out of the Notification Summary so finds land now
    • Android: exempt eSnipe from battery optimisation so Doze can't delay a push
    • Android: give the alerts channel its own sound and importance level

    Phone push, Discord, or both — per search

    Delivery is chosen per monitor, so a private grail hunt can push to your phone alone while a reselling feed posts to a shared Discord channel. Push what's worth interrupting your day; leave the rest in Discord.

    FAQ

    Questions about mobile eBay alerts

    Yes — on the App Store and Google Play. Install it, sign in with your existing account, and your monitors push notifications the moment a listing matches.

    Yes. Both fire as soon as eSnipe spots a match, typically 15-45 seconds after a listing goes live. Lag beyond that is usually a Focus mode or battery optimisation.

    Yes. Each search routes independently — phone push, a Discord webhook, or both.

    No. The apps and the alerts are free, like the rest of eSnipe — no tiers, no cap on searches.
