Version 6.8.5

This version brings updates to the user experience. We have fixed various ui glitches and added in some missing functionality such as searching if an auction has no categories. We have also updated things under the hood to ensure full compatibility with the latest devices. As always, thank you for your support and reach out to use at support@bidbeacon.com if you run into any issues.

Easy to use

This was a great way to run an auction for our company. It was easy to set up and easy to use. Items could be added through out the auction. You get a notice when you are out bid so you aren’t constantly checking. Worked great

Crashing at the last minute

Ya’ll need to fix this from crashing everytime in the final hours, auctions lose money when people aren’t able to bid.

Super easy to use

Great app! Easy to use, and fun too. Auctions are way better this way I think.
