Fact sheet
- Name
- PricePing. On the App Store: “PricePing: Price Tracker”.

- Tracks the price of products you choose, at almost any online store, and notifies you when a price drops. One watchlist for every store, with a price history chart for each product.

- Stores
- Almost any online store. PricePing has read prices from Nike, Lululemon, Zara, Uniqlo, Allbirds, Amazon, Noon, Namshi, Gymshark, Gorman and Shopify shops. It reads the price from the store’s own product page, in the store’s own currency.
- How you add a product
- Share a product link to the app from Safari or a store’s app, or paste it.
- How often prices are checked
- At least once a day for each product. Our servers aim to check it every 12 to 24 hours, even when the app is closed, and your phone can check more often while PricePing is open or in the background.
- Alerts
- Per product: any drop, a drop below your target price, or a percentage drop. Sent as a push notification, and by email when your account has an email address. Stock alerts, on by default for each product, also tell you when a product sells out and when it comes back in stock, the same way.
- Price history
- Starts the day you add a product and grows with every check. No earlier history.
- When a store blocks a check
- PricePing tries another way to read the price. If it still can’t, it keeps the last price it read and shows when that was.
- Privacy
- PricePing does not sell your personal information, does not use advertising identifiers and does not track you across other apps or websites. Product links and prices are never sent to analytics. The full policy is the Privacy Policy.
- Who makes it
- PricePing is operated by Hani Al Anani, an individual based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
- Contact
- Support: [email protected]. Privacy: [email protected].
PricePing’s limits, honestly
- It is a subscription with no free tier. Monthly plans start with a 7-day free trial; yearly plans don’t have one.
- It is iPhone only for now. Android is in testing.
- Price history starts when you add a product. It can’t show what the price was last year.
- Prices are checked at least once a day, not every second, so alerts are not instant.
