Apple Store iOS App Updated With Push Delivery and iPhone Upgrade Notifications

Tuesday April 23, 2013 2:19 PM PDT by Jordan Golson

Apple has updated its Apple Store for iOS app, adding push notifications for order shipment and delivery as well as new notifications for when an iPhone is eligible for upgrade pricing.

What's New in Version 2.6

- Choose to receive notifications that let you know exactly when you’re eligible for upgrade pricing on a new iPhone. And since all you need to complete the order is your Apple ID and password, buying your new iPhone is fast and easy (US only).

- Stay on top of your delivery with notifications. We’ll let you know when your order ships, keep you informed of any updates, and notify you when it’s delivered.

Apple Store is a free download from the App Store. [Direct Link]

I think there is no iPad app for it because the apple store website works very for the iPad since it is such a bigger screen. So it is kind of a waste.

I understand that. I would just assume if you created the iPad you would make an iPad app for the Store. Its easier to set a genius appointment from a ipad or a iphone with the app other than use Safari

I just checked out the upgrade eligibility page of the new Apple Store app.

Verizon just changed my upgrade pricing date from May 21, 2014 to September 20, 2014.

Jerks...

Yup, looks like Verizon is already instituting its policy change on upgrades going from 20 months to full 24 months (like contracts).
