Yeah theres an file with it that allows you too change phone type, colour, size etc. Open it up and amend it with notepad.

Nothing again this morning :(

Is there a way to amend the search for a specific phone? or change how long between each check? Its coming up every 10 seconds at the moment which isn't helping my work productivity.

Thanks

If you open iStockcheck.exe.config, you should see several options in lines which start with "<add key=". To change the one between searches, change the number in the "sleeptime" value (note that it is in milliseconds). To change the model to search for, remove the colours, models and storage sizes you aren't interested in from the corresponding lines. And finally, it at the moment has a "post-code" option, and it searches for stores around that postcode - you can't get more fine grained than that I'm afraid.

It isn't very user friendly at the moment, but I'll try to improve it this week. (Plus, mac version coming soon).

Edit: ah, didn't see Sevv's post: that pretty much covered it. Yeah, nothing at all this morning! Still waiting for a black Plus...

Brill thanks but what do I use to open the config file? Never mind. Got visual Studio

iStocknow shows plenty of plus stock in the US but not a single plus in the whole of Europe...
Surely there'll be a shipment soon?

Scratch that, black pluses available in Gateshead.

For some reason whenever White City appears, I can only buy it to collect in store and not reserve it?

I got a 7+ 256gb Matte Black for Covent Garden but I don't think I'm going to make it as they close at 8 :-(

Surprise surprise my new iPhone 7 has a more yellow tone screen compared to the damaged one I received last week!

This is a complete joke, it's supposed to be the best screen ever yet they can't even ensure they all have the same calibration!

Returning.

Andrew. Any news on OSX version of your push alert program?

I'm working on it in my free evenings - should hopefully be done in a couple of days; definitely by the weekend. The windows version helped me nab a 128gb black iPhone 7 plus today, so hopefully it'll be worth the wait for you too :)
