Make 'Lists' to organise products you’re interested in and keep track of deals and rewards
'Lists' are a useful way to track items that you wish to buy, but may not be ready to purchase yet. All Lists are private by default, but you can share your list and invite others to collaborate for occasions like birthdays, parties, and more. In addition to keeping your items organised in one place, Lists can also help you save money. While using the Amazon Shopping app, you’ll be notified whenever an offer opens up on an item in your List, or a deal becomes available.
Make the most of the review summarisation feature
Amazon now has an AI-powered feature that presents a brief paragraph on the product detail page, summarising key product features and customer sentiments frequently referenced in written reviews. This feature will assist you to swiftly determine if the product aligns with your requirements.
