Shake Your Phone to report problems or send feedback

[my-cottage-books-and-antiques]

Maybe this is common knowledge, but I didn't know this:

Per today's ebay for business podcast.

If you have the ebay app on your phone, and you want to report a technical problem or send ebay feedback about a page you are on, you can just shake your phone and a pop up will allow you to do just that.

It's called "shake to report"

For me, it works sometimes, and doesn't work other times...

If it works sometimes, and doesn't work other times, you may want to shake your phone and report it.

Not to be confused with the old baby shaker game.

That reminds me of the old shuffle feature that I think dates back to the earliest iPods or iPhones... if you want to shuffle your playlist, you just shake the phone. The perfect blend of technology and obviousness. Gave me a big laugh the first time I learned about that. 😄

You may want to report that to eBay.

It makes sense. You have eBay in your hand, things are going wrong, so you naturally shake and squeeze eBay. And at the same time trying not to squeeze too hard.
