Do i need 3g/wifi access for this to work Wed Jun 13, 2012 05:54 AM Quote

Hello all,

Please forgive my stupidity but I was wondering. I have this app installed on both my HTC one x and my Asus tf201.

Do I have to actually be within data range for the snipe to happen or can I just set and forget.

It wouldn't be so much of a problem on my phone however the tablet would be another story.

I have used other sniping apps where I don't need constant data access ie just set and forget but I've read in the reviews in the app store that I might need it.

What I mean by set and forget is that I use the app to create the snipe on the snipe server and the server does the rest when its time to snipe the auction.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Yes, that's correct. You need data connection to setup the snipe initially only. No need to be within the range when the snipe will actually fire on last seconds.
No more missing or forgotten auctions, even when you don't have data connection available.

Thank you so much. I've only had this app for a day and already I've won my first auction. Bought a case for my phone for $2 which usually retails for around $20 !

Was so worried that I needed data access that I hung around my wifi lol.
