Features

The most striking feature of ShopAdvisor Android app is its alerts and notifications when the price of your preferred product falls under your expected range. All you need to do is to keep the list of products you prefer in your watch list and set the price limit for each of them. When the price of the particular product comes between the one you had set, the application notifies you instantly through mail, message or inbuilt alerts. The notification includes price alerts, information about the availability of the product and also the places to buy it for that particular price. You can even set remainders for a product to be bought on a future date. As a result, you can easily plan and choose a product more wisely depending upon your tastes and needs.

You can search the products using the inbuilt search engine or you can scan the barcode of the product and locate it for adding the commodities into your watch list. Either way it works very well and provides quick and reliable results. The product information includes its description, user rating, reviews, pros and cons and many more. ShopAdvisor also shows a comparison chart of prices over a certain time period along with the best and worst dates for buying the product. In case you don’t like a particular product, the app also provides a list of suitable alternatives to choose from.

Almost 200 million products from around 16,000 retailers are explored by this shopping app for Android. From top online markets to local dealers, the ShopAdvisor tracks them all. Other key features include the sharing option and the ‘Advise Me’ tab. You can easily share your desired product information and its details across the internet. ‘Advise Me’ option advises you about all the details you need to know about a specific product. What to buy, how to buy, where to buy, why to buy etc are all answered through this feature.

Discovery on the Google Play Store

Shocking. That's the first thing that comes to mind when you think about discovery for this app on the Play Store. Disappointing. That's another reaction to describe it.

I am sure folks at Evoqu have heard about SEO. Yes? Good. Then use it! You are on Google's domain, the Goliath of search and SEO is one the features your app must utilize on the Play Store. OK, I will try to illustrate my point like this: go to Google Play store and put in search box this: Shop Advisor. What do you see? At least I do not see the ShopAdvisor app in first 5 pages. How can an app with a name of ShopAdvisor can not be found by keywords of the app name in first 2-5 pages? Beats me. Or then, maybe not. 

The fact is that the app's description is not very good at helping the discovery of the app. The description fails to utilize the fact that any tags or keywords that support the discovery or search of this app. Why not have tags like shop, shopping, buy, price,  track, gifts, watch list, sale etc.? I am not talking about the marketing description but just putting a text line with all the tags listed. The more the relevant tags are recurring, the better your rankings would be on the store. 

Conclusion

Unlike instant shopping applications, ShopAdvisor app for Android actually understands your need and plans the best deals with patience. With its amazing features and options, an application that actually helps you save your time and money in shopping is really a big benefit for all shoppers. Shop better with ShopAdvisor and experience a highly efficient virtual shop assistant.
