We've had a few requests to build an app (which is awesome), and I wanted to get a better sense of interest in a My Subscription Addiction App before we might start building it. (FYI - this would take a while so it would be an early 2015 type of thing).
Would you use an MSA app?
What would be post important for you in an app? (Swaps? new coupon alerts? etc?)
Is there anything that doesn't exist on the site that you'd like to see in an app? (And maybe on the site too?)

1. Would you use an MSA app? Yes I would!
2. What would be post important for you in an app? (Swaps? new coupon alerts? etc?) New post notifications, new coupons, notifications when special subs are available, ability to swap
3. Is there anything that doesn’t exist on the site that you’d like to see in an app? (And maybe on the site too?) just notifications
4. Any other feedback? No, great job!

I’m mixed about this! I’m addicted to reading your site as it is, and I’ve subscribed to your box and Sample Society because of it. So if I had an app, I’d go even further down the rabbit hole!
But seriously OH YES PLEASE.

Mostly I navigate your website with my phone, and I see that your website for mobile gotten improved a lot than before which is awesome, but MSA app will be fantastic!
Just wanted to add, that I don’t see any option for searching for a certain sub on the mobile website so it will be nice if the app has option for that 😀

Would LOVE an MSA app! Especially for swap updates (notifications for swap requests, responses, updates, etc would be awesome!) it would also be cool if we could choose our favorite boxes and get notifications when favorites have been reviewed, have coupons, etc. this would be so great!! Thanks, Liz!

I would LOVE!!! an app! please make it so that i can be even more addicted.
Even though your mobile site is pretty good but an app would be best
It would be awesome to be able to browse your reviews and spoilers and also be able to look at all of my swap stuff.
Thanks

Yes yes yes! I love following your reviews and finding new boxes- it’d be great to get notifications on the early sneak peaks of what I’ll get in my boxes, and for boxes like the ModCloth surprise that sells out super fast!

I would totally use an app for updates on boxes and such. My wallet would hate it, but I never liked that wallet anyway, so to hell with it! I would be cautious of using anything for swapping. I had a bad experience with swapping that never was resolved. I was recently notified that they sent my item, when the issue happened months ago and the swap was canceled.

personally, i wouldn’t use the app for reviews and such since bloglovin takes care of me on that end. what would be really helpful is like other people have said, push notifs for flash sales, limited edition boxes, coupon codes that are only available for x amount of hours and the like. i don’t use the swap section of the site just yet but i imagine it would be much more convenient to have a place to keep track of that when one is in place.

I would love one. I’d use it for swaps, coupons, etc as others have said, but I’d love to see an organizational feature to keep track of our own subscriptions (billing date, renewal month, etc. ). Now that I’ve accumulated a few, I find myself needing to start a notebook or something to keep track of it all.

I would love to see a MSA app. It would be very convenient to get notifications on coupon and promo alerts. Sometimes I am late to hear about a special promo, etc. so the app would be very helpful!

An app for the swaps would be awesome! I also wish there was a way to communicate with other swappers to get more info about an item (maybe there is, but I haven’t figured it out yet).

I’d use it as long as there’s an android app I check the site often enough it would be great for limited time offers or for boxes that sell out really fast
