The Amazon Mobile app allows iPhone, iPad and iPod touch owners to very quickly search, shop, compare prices, read reviews, and make purchases on Amazon.com using a simple, yet elegant, interface. Amazon customers have full access to their existing cart, wish lists, payment and shipping options, order history, 1-Click (R) settings, and Prime membership benefits. All purchases made on Amazon Mobile are routed through Amazon’s secure servers just as they are on the web. All prices are in US Dollars.
For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, the Amazon app also includes a new experimental feature called Amazon Remembers that allows you to use the camera on your iPhone to create a visual list of things you want to remember while out-and-about. The photos you take from the app are stored on both the Amazon Mobile app and Amazon’s website. If the item you want to remember is a product, Amazon Remembers will even try to find an product similar to your photo for sale on the web. If we do, we’ll send you an e-mail alert and post the result along with the photo.
Amazon Mobile is great for:
- Buying favorite new book while waiting for an appointment
- Comparing prices from Amazon and thousands of other merchants to those in the retail store you are visiting
- Shopping for the full selection of products available from Amazon.com
- Purchasing and gift wrapping your holiday gifts while on the go
- Browsing product images and reading customer reviews while on the bus or train
- Tracking the status of a recently-placed order when you’re away from your computer
