To make a good purchase on Wallapop that suits your needs, it is necessary to take a look at all the available options to find the best offer. And not all of them will appear on the first day.
So to solve this without being aware of the Wallapop app all day is to create search alerts. That is, you tell the app the product you are looking for so that it notifies you when articles that meet your requirements are published.

These alerts can be as specific as you want You can simply put the name of the product, or apply filters. For example, you can specify that you are looking for a bike that does not exceed 500 euros near your location that has been published in the last 30 days.
Once you have written the keywords for the search and applied the filters, all you have to do is select “Save search” as you see in the first image:
You will find all the created searches in the side menu. If you have any updates that fit your criteria then you will see in red the number of new products that match your search. And to make this process even more convenient, don't forget to turn on notifications for search alerts
You will find this option in Settings >> Settings >> Notifications >> My searches >> Search alerts. This way you'll save having to open the app for updates.
