Redfin iPhone App, Now With Even More Search Options

Since launching our iPhone app two months ago we’ve been glued to the App Store compulsively checking our app’s rating and reading the reviews, and for good reason, our iPhone app is 10% of site traffic on weekends. Overwhelmingly the feedback has been positive; folks love the app. However, there were some folks bummed out that the app didn’t have all the search features that our website does.

Today we have a new version available that lets you search by address and MLS ID and adds the most requested search filters:

  • Year built
  • Lot size
  • Days on Redfin
  • Short sales
  • Under contract

We also made the app much faster. Our super star developer Navtej came up with a new way to group the house icons on the map, improving the maps load time performance seven fold.

Go download the latest version of the app and let us know what we should add next!

Bonus video: Our search engineering manager, Sasha, recently sat down with Meredith from Google to talk about our iPhone app and mobile analytics.

    I hope there will be a Windows Mobile edition soon. I'd like to use it on my smart phone.
