The ListForge App Stopped Losing Your Place

Tap a notification and land on the wrong item. Filter your inventory, step away to box something up, come back and the filter's gone. Hit approve and have no idea what it just did. Those were real days on the ListForge app. This week we closed them.

The ListForge App Stopped Losing Your Place

You're elbow-deep in a tote of kids' clothes when your phone buzzes: someone made an offer. You tap it, and the app opens a different item entirely. You back out, find the right one by hand, and by then you've lost the thread of what you were doing before the notification. That kind of moment was common on the ListForge app. This week we fixed the three places sellers told us they kept losing their place: notifications, filters, and the approve button. We also shipped real updates to the native app itself, on both the App Store and Play Store, so these fixes reach you the normal way, not as a one-off patch.

Notifications now open the item they're actually about

This section is about notifications now open the item they're actually about. The short version: ListForge should match what eBay is actually doing, and when it cannot, you should see a real reason instead of silence.

Your filters stay put when you leave the screen

On your filters stay put when you leave the screen: the goal is the same shop-floor correctness. If a listing looks fine in ListForge but is wrong on eBay, or a publish fails without a usable error, that is the bug class this ship uses. Tap a notification and land on the wrong item. Filter your inventory, step away to box something up, come back and the filter's gone. Hit approve and have no idea what it just did. Those were real days on the ListForge app. This week we closed them.

Approve tells you what happened, not a guess
