Filters
For some reason eBay has removed to shoe size filters from footwear - a pretty important way of narrowing done thousands of listings.
No idea if this will end up reaching anyone that can do anything as eBay seems adverse to any kind of user interactions.

OP8 months agoPixel 8 pro running the latest version of android. Ebay app version 6.241.0.1
The whole point of browsing and entire category is seeing what's available (ooh, I could do with a new pair of recovery/easy-run shoes - wow, a pair of carbon-plate race day shows that someone didn't get on with - not worn On before and don't want to spend £150+ on a trial, look there's a pair for £60).
Face it, they've released a broken app and there's no way of contacting anyone in a position to do anything about it (what's the point in the app, if it doesn't work as well as the website? May as well sack off the app and just use chrome).

Try another browser to rule out a browser issue.
What category are you searching, and what keywords are you using?
I still see size filters in most shoe categories I have checked recently.

OP8 months agoI'm using the android app (latest version according to Play store).
I'm not searching via keyword (dodgy sellers seem to list thousands of keywords to promote their listings) just going through catagories:
Catagories > Sports, Hobbies & Leisure > Sporting Goods > Fitness, Running & Yoga > Fitness & Running Shoes > Mens Shoes
If I use filters on that page then sizes are available, but it only shows ~20 results. When I click through to "View all results" the sizes I've selected have been removed and there's no size option in the filters.
Same thing if I go directly to "View all results", no filter for shoe size.

Which Android version number and app version number? The Google Play Store may not show newer versions if your operating system does not support it. Old versions of the app may not work correctly.
Try searching using keywords; if you want to search an entire category, use the category name as your keyword(s). That may provide more filter options compared to browsing without keywords.
If the app is not working, try using a mobile browser instead.
