Since its creation in 2011, our app has gone through a number of incarnations. At the start of the smartphone era – the iPhone 4S had just been released – our app burst into the app stores, allowing users to look up the price of a wine. It was a pioneer at the time. And now it’s had another upgrade so it can offer users much more than the initial functionalities it had. Here are some before and after shots which show just how far it’s come along.
If you weren’t around here at the beginning, the app had some paid-for functions. That is thankfully not the case today! Over the years, the app has had many face lifts. Each update has brought new developments and functionalities. User experience has improved each time, responding to the growing changes that our community desired.
There have been times when our app has not received the attention it so rightly deserved. Despite these slower moments in terms of updates, our wish to give you the best possible services never wavered, and we always knew it held great potential. This is why our web team have been working non-stop for the fast year to bring up to the modern day. We are happy to announce that the new, completely reworked version of our app is available on your app store. What’s better than that?
Take part in wine auctions
With 48 auctions in 2023, our app allows you to bid on the wines in the catalogue from your phone or tablet. Each bottle which comes from the collections of wine enthusiasts are appraised and authenticated by our specialists, guaranteeing a quality service. You can even follow the bids placed on lots directly from the app.
Uncover the wines from our partner producers
As well as auctions, we sell wines at a fixed price, meaning that you can get your hands on bottles so much faster. The wines are carefully selected in close collaboration with our partner producers. With more than 8,000 different incarnations of Dionysus’ nectar available on this part of our website, you are bound to find the bottle that’ll tickle your taste buds.
Look up the price estimate of your favourite wines
Our app gives you access to a huge wine encyclopaedia with price estimates based on our 20 years’ experience collecting data so that you know the value of a bottle. It’s become a reference for wine enthusiasts, constructed from 3 million auction results going from 1992 to the present day. The price estimates are available at a click of a button even when you’re not connected to a network – a handy feature when you’re in a deep wine cellar! This fine wine database also includes information about the producers, tasting notes, food pairing ideas and more.
Consign your collection
Thanks to our 20+ years of experience, iDealwine offers consigners a bespoke solution for selling their wines. Our services include transportation, insurance, appraisal, storage and quick delivery to buyers with guaranteed payment within 35 days of the end of the auction. And you can do all this from the app!
And many others!
The app also gives you access to the latest blog articles, which are carefully written and translated by our marketing team. You can also connect to your iDealwine account to have all the most recent updates at your fingertips. You can also add your favourites to your wishlist.
And well, we really think the new version of the app is quite something. But that’s us; you’ll have to see for yourself.
