Svpply now for the iPad

We’re pleased to announce that Svpply is now available as an iPad app!

The new app makes it easy to explore page after page of beautiful products and stores, hand selected by you guys, our community. If you get lost in the experience, (which we hope you do), a tap of the History button reveals a unique browsing history, fanned out like the pages of a catalog, making it easy to jump back.

It’s a universal app so if you already have the Svpply app on your iPhone, all you need to do is run the latest update on your iPad.

Let us know if you’ve got any suggestions, we’ll be watching Twitter and Tumblr closely in the coming weeks.

The Svpply app is available for free download from the iTunes App Store, and is compatible with any iOS device running iOS 4.2 and up. Let us know if you find any bugs or have any comments! support@svpply.com

The Svpply iPhone app is here!

We know a lot of you have been waiting for this, so we’re excited to announce that our new Svpply iPhone app is available for download in the App store.

We’re super proud of this one. With robust categories, a beautiful custom feed of products, super fast search, and some new interactions that we think suit us well, we put a lot into making this the best possible mobile shopping experience out there.

Speak up if you’ve got any suggestions, we’ll be watching Twitter and Tumblr closely in the coming weeks.

Next up, iPad App!

New Svpply API!

Tue, 10 Apr 2012 15:14:00 -0400

We’re excited to announce that our API is live and available for your use! Want to build your own shopping iPad app? You can do that. Want to build a website devoted to blue shoes? You can do that too.

This past week we handed the keys of the API over to the guys at OKFocus, the studio behind WhoDat.biz and LemmeTweetThatForYou.com. We asked them to have fun with it, and they didn’t disappoint:

Tug of Store - “A real time game where coolness is decided democratically”. Tug of Store runs off our new API, which also drives Svpply.com and our forthcoming iPhone app. Some of the API’s features:

1.2 million products
Full OAuth support
3,000 new products a day
70,000 Stores
40,000 Collections

There’s a new landing page for all API-related content: developer.svpply.com. Drop by our terms before you get started. If you have any questions or want to write in with comments, send us a message at api@svpply.com.

Happy building!

“One of the reasons I like Svpply so much is I have found it to be helpful in buying fewer, but better, things. One way I use Svpply is to find high-quality merchandise from small businesses that manufacture goods in the US. When I actually buy something I find there, the digital shopping that takes place on Svpply is still helping to contribute to real-world consumerism, but perhaps a less-bad variety.”

Chris Tackett, The Atlantic. This was exactly my goal for Svpply: to assist in what I hope becomes a broad cultural shift where people acquire fewer, nicer things. (via whiskyvangoghgo)

Very exciting to see The Atlantic break us down so accurately.

“Holiday Survival Set” by Ashton Anders Correa

is the winner of our Best Men’s Wish List, as selected by Steven Alan and Mat Sanders:

“From the quality of products to the killer banner image, we felt Ashton really hit the mark with his Holiday Survival Set. Aside from his strong concept and telltale style, we can all relate to the need for having a wooden crossbow pistol on-hand during this oh-so-merry season.”

Nice work, McKenna!
