Don't use apps. Takes personal info and takes up storage space.


I have plenty of storage on my iPhone so that is not an issue for me. I don't know what personal information the QVC app would use that the website doesn't. Again that isn't an issue for me.

I don't use the app because I shop qvc and hsn via Mr Rebates. If I decide to buy something today, I will download the app, make the purchase, then uninstall the app. Mr. Rebates is the main reason why I do not use the app.

@PhilaLady1 I shop QVC through Rakuten, but it takes me to the app after I go to Rakuten. Other than that I think the app is much more stream-lined than the website.

Neither Jane Brown or the banner on qvc.com say a word about having to use the app.  I bet it'll work just fine on qvc.com.

If I have to stick an app on my tablet to get a discount then I will not be buying anything that day!  I don't see why shopping on a website rather than an app should make a difference.  It is preference vs punishment.  Totally unfair!  Yes, they can play their little discount games but I don't have to play.  It is stupid!

I agree with Gabidog and many others.  I will not get this App or any other Apps on my devices.  They can be easily compromised in this age of surveillance.  Too easy for our info ( billing info) to be stolen.   Not worth getting 20% off if we need to compromise our online safety.  I also think this is discrimination.   Many of us are long time buyers and all customers should be treated the same.

i will continue to use the website.

Apps don't bother me.  I use them all the time for work, business, and fun.  Many companies have several methods of reaching customers with different incentives.  I don't see the harm in it. I, like many others, don't have an issue with storage, so it works for me!

But your billing info can be stolen on any website too. 🥴

Its interesting how so many that use apps like them.

 

Those who have never used one or even tried them dislike them for no reason at all!  How is that possible if you've never even tried them?

It says App-exclusive offer at the top of the offer on the app and qvc.com homepage.

@Biftu, on your iPad go to the blue box icon on your home page. It's titled App Store. Open and search for QVC.
