Shopping

Shopping is your household’s private price tracker. Watch products across major retailers, get told the moment a price drops, and browse deals and coupons, all from one page. Nothing you track is sold to anyone; it’s just for you.

Tracking a Product

One search box does double duty. Paste a product link from Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, or most other stores, and MaiPai Home starts tracking it. Or type a product name to search across retailers at once and pick the listing you want.

Every tracked item shows a price-history chart (Amazon listings get an extended history), so you can see whether now is actually a good time to buy. Favorite the items you care about most, and your recently-viewed list makes it easy to find your way back to something you looked at earlier. Tracked products are shared with your whole household.

If you’ve told MaiPai Home about discounts you get at checkout (a store card, military or student discount, a membership), prices shown reflect what you’d actually pay, compounded the way a real checkout would.

Price Alerts

Set an alert on anything you track: notify me when the price drops to a target amount, drops by a percentage, drops at all, or when an out-of-stock item comes back. Alerts arrive as a regular MaiPai Home notification, so you’ll know the moment it’s worth buying.

Deals and Coupons

A Today’s Deals feed surfaces what’s actually worth a look right now, pulled from Slickdeals. Alongside it, coupon links for Amazon, Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Best Buy, and eBay make it easy to clip a discount before you check out.

Identify by Photo

Snap a photo of a barcode or the product itself and MaiPai Home suggests matching listings to track, no typing required.

Ask Your Companion

You don’t have to open the app to use any of this. Ask your companion to track a link, check whether something’s at its best price, or tell you what’s on sale, and it reaches for Shopping on your behalf.

A Note on the Internet

Shopping needs a connection: prices, deals, and coupons are all fetched live from retailers and can’t be cached ahead of time.
