Sift solves the dilemma of cluttered shopping emails by combining them into an HD shopping experience. Instead of sorting and organizing to find the best deals, use Sift to create a personalized shopping list.
To get started, either create an email account or login through Facebook. It’s not required to link an email account, but that’s what makes the app so personalized. Once users link their account, the app begins sorting through all the emails and importing them into the app. Users can then subscribe to their favorite stores, like the best deals or view the top 100 offers from over 3000 brands.
The interface is quite intuitive. I felt like I was browsing through a large interactive mall. It’s easy to like and dislike offers, share promotions with friends and even shop at my favorite stores all with just a few taps on the screen. One of my favorite options is to set a sale reminder so that I never forget when a great deal is happening. A few other great features include the option to move sales to a Sift folder, social connect through Facebook, the ability to shop within the app and notification settings for favorite shops and big savings.
The overall concept of Sift is ingenious. Just when I thought that I had all the apps I need, another one pops up that makes my life a little less hectic. It’s like having a virtual mall in my pocket, and I can’t wait to snag some great deals this weekend without wondering if I missed anything in my email. Since it’s completely free to try, I recommend it to anyone who does a lot of shopping online.
