September 9, 2012
Amazon has just launched the official iOS app for its very own daily deals website, AmazonLocal.
Optimized for iPhone and iPod touch but nonetheless compatible with iPad, AmazonLocal for iOS offers an easy way to browse deals on the eponymous service.
You can view deals immediately after launching the app for the first time. But you have to sign in with your Amazon account in order to take full advantage of the app.

What’s more, you can specify whether you like, dislike, or feel neutral about a a certain type of deal. That way, you get to see in the app only the types of deals that matter to you.
