Here Are the Best Apps for Mobile Commerce

It doesn’t always make sense to shop with our mobile browsers on our smartphones. Some websites work poorly on mobile browsers, or else they are tricky to navigate. Luckily, many of the sites you visit most are available in app form, which makes mobile online shopping easier than ever.

Amazon
This app preserves the design of the website, which makes it easy to navigate. Like on the website, you can search for millions of products, use 1-Click ordering, create or access registries and wish lists, and receive all necessary information on current deals. There are many convenient features included as well, such as the ability to search for items or track orders with your voice, scan a competing product’s barcode to compare the price to available Amazon products, and receive app notifications on the status of your order.

Overstock
This app has many of the same features as the website, and allows you to browse and purchase discounted products from the convenience of your smartphone. You can receive notifications on coupons and daily deals to make sure you get the items you want at the price you want. There’s also the option to purchase items with Android Pay — another perk.

eBay
If you’re a fan of eBay, then you need to download this app immediately. This app makes it even easier to buy, sell, shop, and make bids on the go. It also includes a barcode scanner to search for relevant items, compare prices, and make listing items for sale faster. App notifications are also included so you can keep better track of your items.

Etsy
Further discover unique, handcrafted goods on the go with the Etsy app. The app makes it easy to browse for a last-minute gift or an item you didn’t know you needed until now. This app includes recommendations according to your tastes, notifications on items you’ve purchased, and information about Etsy events near you.

Protect Your Device with PSafe
Many of the above-mentioned apps request a lot of permissions from your smartphone that are necessary for full use of the app. As a precaution, remember to read through the permission requests so you know what the app is accessing from you. Unfortunately, many malicious apps are designed to mimic popular apps in order to gain access to your phone through these permissions. Be aware of any suspicious-looking apps, and download PSafe Total for your Android to protect your device against malicious threats 24/7.
