Flipkart adds new features and improvements to their Windows Phone app

India’s leading eCommerce store, Flipkart launched their official Windows Phone app last month. The app features a very nice user interface and easy navigation through different departments to find products.

The app has been updated to v1.1.00 yesterday and adds a host of new features in addition to some neat user experience improvements. That’s pretty good for an app that’s only a few weeks old.

The latest update adds the much-requested wish list feature that allows you to bookmark products to check out later or share the list with your friends and family so they know what to buy you for gift. The wish list syncs between Web and all your devices, so works pretty well.

The app now features recommendations so you look at products suggested based on your browsing history that you might be interested in. There’s of course Search history, so you can check out your recently viewed products. Also, when you search for products, categories, or brands, the product filtering has been improved with the latest update.

Download the Flipkart app for free for Windows Phone 8 devices from the Windows Phone Store. It’s a pretty good, and the quick update looks ominous to Flipkart customers on Windows Phone. What are your thoughts on the Flipkart app for Windows Phone? Is it the best in form and function, or you prefer apps from other online retailers?
