The first official Craigslist app was launched, giving mobile user access to the platform approximately 24 years after the original launch. Before the app was available, the online marketplace could only be accessed through the Craigslist website. The Craigslist app is currently available for free on iOS devices, however, the Android app is still undergoing beta testing.
The official Craigslist app operates very similarly to the online market place. Users will still have the ability to contact buyers or sellers through email or text message, without disclosing their personal information. Mobile users will also have the ability to favorite items in the app, which allows them to easily go back and find items that piqued their interest.
