GarageSale Scout not grabbing media info anymore after a scan

First of all, thank you for GarageSale scout, love the app tremendously.

I’m having issues when I scan media like a DVD or CD, its’ not automatically pulling up that DVD or CD inside the app, it just copies the UPC code, which is great but I would love for it to also change the title and description to whatever the catalog states for that UPC.

It used to do this but recently it stopped doing so. Not sure if something changed or broke within Scout.

Definitely more options inside Scout would be great, like maybe also copying the title to the description so we don’t get the “add a description” warning when uploading the listing to the site. Just to have some info inside the description field.

Also, if you can remove the 12 images limit back to say 25 per listing or maybe 20?

Also, perhaps a way to mass scan say 25 DVD’s in a row and then have it process those 25 into listings after you’re done scanning. That would save so much time than one by one.

Anyhow, the main issue is that its not updating the info of said DVD or media into the title, etc. It just copies the UPC numbers.

Thank you!

Same here. Also, now GS Scout will not transfer listings to my Macbook the way it always did so nicely. Now the connection times out without transferring the listings from my phone. So frustrating!!!

Hi,

this is due to a deprecation/decommission of the eBay API GarageSale Scout uses to fetch the products. As of now there is no eBay API that we can use to fetch these information without an authorized eBay account (e.g. a token).

We already work on a solution for this, but this may take some time (and testing).

Sorry for that,
Paul

Forgot to mention that you can send me your TestFlight account email address (privately). I can then try to add you to the list of (external) testers of the new version.
