💡 Tips and best practice

  • Research an item from the Research screen before you list it, so you know what it could sell for.

  • Search your past research on the Research screen before starting new research — you may have already researched a similar item.

  • Keep an eye on the Needs your attention badge on the Home screen, so listings waiting for approval or with export errors don't pile up.

  • Always check the AI-chosen eBay category on the Create a listing screen before you move on.

  • Use the bottom menu to move between screens rather than going back to Home each time.


⚠️ Troubleshooting / FAQs

Where do I find listings that failed to export?

Listings that failed to export appear under Failed listings on the Needs your attention screen, and show an Export failed status tag on the Listings screen. Tap a failed listing to see what's blocking it and fix it. See Fix eBay export failed errors for the most common causes.

What do I need to create a listing?

To create a listing on the Create a listing screen, you need at least one photo of your item and at least one marketplace switched on. Add photos with Camera or Gallery, then switch on your marketplaces in Marketplaces.

Where do I approve listings before they go live?

You approve listings from Listings for approval on the Needs your attention screen. To get there, tap Review on a Needs your attention card on the Home screen, then tap a listing to give it a last check before it goes live.
