I don't really like the interface of Amazon Mobile. I find myself using the actual site through the phone's browser more than the app.

Take a picture of an item at the store and find out if Amazon has it for less. Genius.

Amazon Remembers feature is right on...

Version 1.0
I just downloaded this app before heading out to lunch and then tested the Amazon Remembers feature in a dimly lit restaurant bar by taking a picture of my shoe on my foot half obscured by my pants. Didn't take long for Amazon to send me an email notifying me that they found the product I was looking for. Clicked the link within the email on my iPhone and it launched Amazon Mobile, showed me the exact shoe I was looking for along with the price. All I had to do was pick the size and color and click buy.
Very good start!

So far so good - this app is very easy to use and has a lot of the features I was hoping for such as the product searching, account details and such. The 'Remembers' section is all too cool! I took a picture of the mouse on my desk and within an hour or so I got an email from Amazon with a link to the product on their site - very cool! This will be especially handy when I'm in the store and want to compare prices or remember something for later knowing it's probably cheaper on Amazon.
Who's giving this good reviews?

Amazon must be paying people to give it good reviews because this app is pointless. A fraction of the funtionality of using Safari. It's claerly another targetted marketting medium without giving consumers anything new.
Not so great,

What's the point of this app? The web app is better in my view, coz it has the features I really want to be able to access anytime. This app could be great if it could offer the deal of the day, lightening deals and quick picks. Also the ability the browse catagories is essential.
Security Problem - phone stolen, Amazon has credit card info!

I do most of household shopping on Amazon from my desktop. I was thrilled to add the Amazon app to my iPhone. But Amazon stores your credit card information. If someone swipes your phone, they can add a new shipping address, buy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise on your credit card, and click send faster than you can cancel your card. Amazon needs to add a default password check prior to checkout for the mobile version. Amazon could allow less security conscious users to elect to disable this feature if desired.
Very Useful

While I can't imagine doing a lot of browsing type shopping with this app, it's a great way to access and/or edit your account info and track your shipments. If you already know what you're looking for, and aren't near a computer, ordering something is quick and easy.
Almost Great

When browsing textbooks, it is very frustrating to find out what edition you're looking at. On most of the books I've viewed, the cover image is blurry, so I couldn't even get it that way - or even read the author at times. The search is a little literal in that if toy put in the title missing a ":" even with the exact words it will have the book you're looking for buried in the list. Finally, maybe it isn't offered for the books I've looked for, but where is the "look inside the cover" preview? Other than those things I think it is a pretty slick app.
Don't bother putting any thought into it...

Version 1.1.2
You can kinda manage your own wish list, unless you actually want to set the priority of items or move items between wish lists. No access to your shopping list and gift organizer (seriously, how often are you buying things off your own wish list?). These are the most efficient features for a mobile setting, and they aren't accessible through the app. A search button rather than the ubiquitous and familiar search field? What were they thinking?
Look, I understand that you can apply whatever arbitrary restrictions to your API that you want; but maybe you should open it back up, and let the people who have a clue about mobile apps build them.
Good start, but NO SELLER tools

It's a good start, but if you are a seller, you can't access your inventory. The seller account stuff is missing. Thus, ever time I need to go to safari... This is a major problem. Please fix it.
No iPhone Kindle purchase support?

For some inexplicable reason you can't purchase iPhone Kindle books through this App, although there is no reasonable technical reason why this would be. It is, after all, just another shopping cart purchase. Instead you have to use the mobile website version to purchase - which is fine, but makes you wonder - why bother with this app?
