CraigsMobileList gets a Major Update

**Kyle Matthews** · 09-17-2008, 12:56 PM

CraigsMobileList (link opens in iTunes), the iPhone app front end for CraigsList, gets a major update to 1.1 here in the next day or two. 1.0.5 is the current version up.

Rick Krakowski, president of Mobile Simplicity (makers of the app), sent us this:

The new update, v1.1, addresses many features requested by our users, such as:

Support for pictures in listings
Improved UI
New font
Recent locations remembered
Added subcategories
More locations
Ability to name bookmarks
Save search terms within bookmarks
Restore previous search settings automatically
Filter improvements
Faster search load times
Assorted bug fixes

If you're a Criagslist user (and who isn't?), this update looks like it makes the iPhone Craigslist browsing experience easy as pie. Nice job, guys.

Too bad they charge for this. You'd think it would be free like ebay...

**steve7de3** · 09-17-2008, 01:04 PM

something like that should be free..

**CaptainChaos** · 09-17-2008, 01:10 PM

Heh Let me charge you... so you can buy stuff from me. Genius I say.

Looks cool.

Makers of Craigslist Mobile are not affiliated with Craigslist itself. Ebay will give away a program because it gets a cut of every item sold on its website. When was the last time you paid a fee for listing on Craigslist? So let me get this straight you want Craigslist to give you free listings and you want them to create a program for your phone so that you can use their free service. Get a job, slobs.

I have a job. A quite nice one. Too bad you can't see the irony behind what I said.

Why pay $2.99 when I can surf to their site?

This is one of only 3 apps I have in the cheap to free category. (ebay, Craigs, AIM)

I LOVE this app, so the new pic support and features are only going to make me happier about it. Kudos for progress.

**dthomp22** · 09-17-2008, 01:55 PM

probably the only app that i would actually buy

**laz305** · 09-17-2008, 01:57 PM

sweet I love this app thx for the info

**marys25** · 09-17-2008, 02:18 PM

Too bad you can't understand that your comment doesn't make since when the maker of Craigsmobilelist is Mobile Simplicity and not Craigslist. I agree surfing to Craigslist is better in the aspect of listing because you can't list items within Craigsmobilelist but the interface is much easier to use.

**oo3** · 09-17-2008, 03:08 PM

Ummmm I'd rather open up safari and type in craigslist.org and save myself 2.99.

**unlockme** · 09-17-2008, 03:24 PM

I use craigslist on my 2g and it loads super fast since it's mostly text and some images sometimes. I don't see a need to pay for this.

**tattoojack** · 09-17-2008, 11:03 PM

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!
between the iphone, this site, and craigslist i was always busy with something.

now i have all 3 in one place!!!!

how could i ever live without this phone?

I'm a bit surprised that no one is cracking these apps like every other piece of software on the net.

Use the "WebSearch" app and you don't even have to do that much.

Oh trust me, people are cracking apps. They have at least 3 sites dedicated to it.

I hate the concept, some people are cheap.
