Microsoft has just certified "My Purchases (Powered by Slice)" for Windows Phone 8.1, so now both the Windows Phone and Windows 8.1 apps are available.
Slice.com is a cool service for online shoppers, they currently only have apps for iOS and Android, so I wrote apps for Windows Phone and Windows 8.1.
If you shop online, the app helps you stay organized: know what you bought, where you bought it, and when it will arrive without ever having to check your email.
Here's are some of its main features -
- Find Purchases by browsing by Merchant or Category.
- Graphs and Charts showing trends by Merchant or Category.
- Access a Merchant's "Return Policy" page and get its support phone number.
- Easily find an Order Number when contacting a Merchant.
- Quickly Search for a Receipt.
- Easily order the same item again.
- Find Deductions when it's tax time.
- Live Tile shows the last 5 Orders (Windows 8.1).
- 'My Purchases' is powered by Slice - for more information on the Slice service see https://www.slice.com/shopping_intro and https://www.slice.com/how_it_works
Here's the Windows Phone app:

And here's the Windows 8.1 app:

It's a Universal App, so thank you to those folks that purchased the ad free version for Windows 8.1 - as promised you get the full version on Windows Phone for free!
Now that I've released both apps, I'll continue to add features as fast as I can -
- Notifications: Get push notifications so you know when your package is set to hit your doorstep.
- Track Packages: Track all your in-transit orders on a single map - no logging into multiple retailer websites or searching for tracking numbers in emails. Our mobile apps will even send you push notifications when a package is on its way.
- Save Money: ever discovered that the price of what you bought yesterday has dropped today? 'My Purchases' will alert you when this happens and will help you get money back.
- Be Safe: app will alert you when anything you've bought is recalled by the Consumer Products Safety Commission, helping you keep your family safe.
- Let me know what features you'd like - any ideas are cool and it will help me prioritize.
My original announcement for the Windows 8.1 app is here: http://forums.windowscentral.com/app-spotlight/344064-new-app-my-purchases-powered-slice.html, additional feedback on any of the apps is greatly appreciated.
For the developers out there, I wrote it using @MvvmCross and the PCL contains the models, services, and viewmodels, shared by both the Windows Phone and Windows 8.1 apps - I'll blog about it soon.
I'd love for @Daniel_Rubino or any of the folks at wpcentral.com to try it out - you'll love it and a lot of folks in the community will enjoy it if you make it a featured app. I'll buy you lunch at Build.
Good Times!
