| 2024-09-19 |  | | Really good deals at times. Other times they are average, or non-brands that you can find similar non-sale deals on by other non-brands. But, every once in a while you get a killer deal... So, I check it out every so often to see what's good. |
| 2024-08-24 |  | | I have been a Dealnews shopper for many years. I was exited to find an app. Dealnews takes all the hard work out for you when looking for the best prices! |
| 2023-09-28 |  | | Update: The developer answered with a solution, I appreciate that! Hopefully the false swipes get fixed in a future update. Original: Great app for discount codes. Now the swipe feature it's extremely annoying, when I'm just scrolling thru, it thinks I want to swipe left or right, with any minimal touch. Very annoying. |
| 2021-02-25 |  | | Dealnews has become my morning newspaper. It started with an email but after I discovered the app it was a no brainer to switch. It's gorgeous and it seems to only get better. With its sleek and clean design it's easy to move around and configure to anyone's liking. The team of developers that it's taken to get it to this state are really good, and it shows. My only problem is my own ability to control myself when it comes to buying deals that I don't necessarily need. |
| 2020-06-02 |  | | Very functional & reliable but Slickdeals seems to show some sales before Dealnews does. And in some cases deals may expire or sell out within minutes so being first is very important. Hence, I check both daily. Slickdeals' interface is not as user-friendly as Dealnews'; otherwise, I'd switch over completely. So I had to knock half a star off for not being first to report all deals (like i said, i check both so i see this in real time). |
| 2020-02-15 |  | | Wow the new look is different. But even worse than change that everyone hates at first glance is how bad functionality is now. Searches do not go away after "cleared", bookmarks must all be removed at once (no option to remove single bookmarked items), and the swipe features are all gone to dismiss managed items. On top of functions no longer working there is still no dark/night theme that a lot of folks have been requesting for months now. |
| 2020-01-29 | | | DN used to be good a year ago. I have seen a consistent decline with the apps quality. For one, deals often are sold out within an hour of posting but I understand why. Two, when I as a user find a real good deal and try to post it, I fall on deaf ears. Finally, editor's choice was FAR better than staff picks. Ever since it changed to the latter it's been, at best, mediocre deals. |
| 2019-08-14 | | | This app is everything! I really like how they do all the work for you and provide all the necessary coupon codes. The best part is the variety of items that appeal to most anyone. *No more searching though an app full of great deals on things you don't want, need and will never buy.* BoOm! |
| 2019-03-12 | | | Used to be an excellent app full of great deals. Now over half of the deals are for 3rd party branded items on Amazon, most being knock-off items from China. Of course all those items are going to be cheaper than name brand items. #1, they're off-shore items. #2, comparison shopping is impossible considering there's no point of reference for pricing. No one else sells those items under that brand name. Very disappointing. |
| 2019-03-08 | | | unlike the desktop version, cannot choose the entire list according to category. have to go to search and often cannot see the category needed. Been using dealnews for years and found many worthwhile bargains using desktop. |
