Update app is a complete rebuild that will lead to new features in the future.
GoDaddy has launched an updated GoDaddy Investor iOS app for bidding on domain name auctions. A new Android app should be released in the coming weeks.
The updated app has a new look. It also lets you sort your lists by end time, price, alpha and auction type.
While the features aren’t a big upgrade from the last version, a lot has been done behind the scenes that will lead to big updates in the future, including the ability to search for domains. (Right now you have to add domains through the web interface for them to show up in the app.)
Also, the app fixes an issue for people that use a physical security key for two-factor authentication. They can use app-based two-factor codes to log into the app now.
My only question is will it keep logging me out when I need to bid. There’s no reason to constantly log me out of a password protected phone. Super annoying.
Yes, it used to give you a couple of weeks. My understanding is they are fixing this — Paul?
yes, actively working on it
Excited to get this version into our investor’s hands. As you mentioned, though, not a lot of new functionality in this release despite it being a complete re-write. New features will come in the following months including checking out from the app, support for more inventory types (like closeouts) and the ability to search.
In the app: Either show all names in uppercase or lowercase but do not mix it like it is now.. really disturbing.
Unfortunately, this app is still not working for me – despite reporting the problem to my premiere acct rep.
It does not display any of teh domains that I am watching.
Re-connection issues, need to turn off on phone if you lose phone connection.
Maybe next try to revamp your domains manager, or bring back old panel, what a nightmare.
We can auth code a domain out, faster than we can push one to another account.
