Changes to the Ebay app

A few days ago everything changed and now it takes 3 times longer to list a item. I was just told no one else has reported this problem, if you list with your phone you have noticed. The last change last month cost us about 15000 pictures and we had hundreds of listings with only 1 picture. This did not help with the horrible summer. I just wanted to see if anyone else has noticed. I hate change but I really hate change when it cost me time and aggravation

Changes to the Ebay app

We’ve noticed a few issues with the eBay app (iPhone) as well.  The “condition description” field is no longer available. 

 

Also, the app removes the formatting from the listing description.  For instance, when we attempt to revise a description the original basic html formatting is stripped away and  everything is converted into a basic block  paragraph.  (Yuck!)

 

Hey app developers, what gives?  Please fix.

Exactly, but the botton line is it take about 3 times longer to list a item, plus the camera doesnt work right. You have to hold phone still after it takes the picture for a second or 2. I just can't believe we would ever be SLOWED down. I owe ebay alot but with the anchor store price going up over 350% per month and these glitches that cost me a whole summers pay, I need to be able to list at a fast rate.

Its not quick per se, but if you start listings on your phone, save as draft, open on a computer, and manually change to advanced listing, it is only about 10 minutes a listing. Considering it was 3 minutes last month, no computer handoff delay needed, no, I am not happy with my solution. But its better than 20 minutes on the app. Seriously ebay just get out of my way, let me sell stuff on here Im pretty darn good!
