HotStock - in-stock alerts Reviews

To cut the manure, THIS WORKS. Hands down, 100%, no questions asked HotStock is the ONLY reason I was able to get an Xbox series X. In my 30’s, young child, soul sold to my work and wife…I have no time to chase restocks with the time and enthusiasm of a teenager on summer vacation. Stumbled across HotStock goodness knows were and was willing to try anything. Paid a couple bucks for the premium perks and let it work and work it did, less than a month and I had my treasure. We’re talking restocks that held out for mere minutes. Whoever programmed this thing, drinks on me boys and girls because work well done. Y’all helped a blooming middle aged man find his peace again after my Xbox one hard drive crapped out. I had to drop my vices to reach peak performance in my profession and raise a family, leaving my solace coming in the form of few well time head shots. Thank you for once again bringing balance to my world for hope was near lost.
Side note: a little work was required on the side. I had accounts with payment setup in advance for most authorized Xbox distributors. Minimal clicks required when the race starts.

Was having trouble finding an Xbox Series X. A couple co-workers recommended this app. Had it on my phone a few months but never setup an account. After a few more months not finding an Xbox and still having HotStock on my phone I decided to setup an account and give it a try. Within a month I had an Xbox. I missed a couple of opportunities but that was not the fault of this app but the retailers I was trying to purchase from (website freezing/crashing).

Setting up the account is easy and so is setting up your alerts. You can select what product, what retailers, and what price range and there’s plenty to choose from. They offer tips and tricks for notifications to make sure you are in the best possible position to get the product you are looking for, for the price you are looking for. Another helpful feature is that clicking the retailer takes you right to the website for you to add it to your cart.

100% recommend HotStock and wish I would have listened to my coworkers sooner and skipped my frustrations. I’ll be setting up notifications for a PS5 soon . Cheers

Love HotStock , i was able to receive all of the notifications and i was close a couple of times at getting a ps5 but they would sell out . Its a great app it tells you when systems will be available days in advanced and what it is needed to get one . Even put some helpful tips on there like showing when and where the systems will be available and even when they sell out ! I was able to get a ps5 through HotStock with walmart and will be receiving mine at the end of the month . These systems are hard to come by so i was so happy to be able to get one with the help of HotStock . I’ve told my friends and family and a couple of them were able to cop one as well . 5 star review ! GET HotStock NEOW !!!!! Also i see alot of people have paid and are now upset because they werent able to score !! i am here to tell you i am a real person, i never paid for the subscription as i thought it was pretty obvious it was a pretty big gamble to get a system when only a few are dropped at a time !!!! Again a real person and i scored mine through the apps help 3/14 from walmart .

You still have to be on your game. But it does work. I’m not interested in following all the different sites and email alerts. They alerted me when my device went back on at target and I got it. I had to work on it. I didn’t get it the very first time. But within a few times of the release. I did get the device and it was because of HotStock. So it did what it says it’s supposed to do. And I see a lot of people getting it on HotStock chat room. If you think this will auto purchase for you or somehow you think because it shows up on their app that you are guaranteed then you don’t understand how the system works. Also. For all the companies you are trying to buy from. It’s wise to create accounts ahead of time on their sites so when the alert pops. All your customer info is in the company you want to buy as time is of the Essence when it comes to needing an app like this for a purchase.
Good
Luck and keep at it. It works.

So far so good only have had HotStock downloaded for about two weeks and it has alerted me on a few things that I have been looking for with out upgrading. I was one of probably millions out there looking for the Nintendo Switch Console out here for my daughter and had no luck finding one until I downloaded HotStock and as soon as I did not even a week lasted I received an alert saying bestbuy had some in stock and i was able to snatch one up and she was so happy it wasn’t the animal crossing console but we got the Nintendo switch console that she can play her animal crossing game which is sold separately. And after that I was in need of paper towels as we all know those and sanitizer is still hard to find and I was able to snatch that up a pretty decent size pack too and it’s being shipped to me from Walmart 2 day shipping! So I’m pretty happy so far with HotStock and so far it’s free! And with the service I have received I wouldn’t mind paying for it it’s really come in handy.

Basically I’ve been searching for a RETAIL priced PS5 for the better half of 2021.. Needless to say I wasn’t able to find one at all. I came across HotStock via a social media blogger and downloaded this app with no real expectations… LITERALLY within the last month, I was able to purchase exactly what I needed AND for retail price at that. this app alerted me ahead of time each time a seller had the PS5 available.(you have to allow notifications on your device to get the alerts) I can’t believe all year I’ve been on a goose chase and this app comes along and makes it all so easy. (TBH I missed about 2 drops before I got my “checkout” method down pack -but that had nothing to do with this app). I definitely recommend HotStock to alllll that want to try and beat the bots 🤖…. I don’t see myself buying another but if I had to, this app would be the only outlet I use!!! I ordered on cyber Monday and my item arrived that Friday morning.. It gets no better baybeeee 😅🤟🏽

Getting a PS5 proved impossible due to supply issues. Hot Stock made it possible though and is the only way I could get one with success since they sell out within minutes of coming in stock anywhere.
They offer free notifications or a paid low cost option that I used after just missing out on this hot item. I still had to be QUICK, but Hot Stock got me the notification with link right to the item when it came in stock so I could quickly get it added to my cart and check out. Thank you, Hot Stock! I HIGHLY recommend HotStock if looking for a quick still item. Additional bonus is they log information on where an item was in stock, when it came in stock and when it sold out. PS5 consoles sell out within just a couple minutes sometimes. That way of shopping for something like this has definitely changed, making a resource like this necessary to successfully buy anything like this.

I was following a Xbox stock tracker on Twitter thinking that I was ahead of the game. It’s suggested GameStop was going to have xbox consoles in stock at a specific time. That turned out not to be true. So I downloaded the GameStop app and saw HotStock under recommended. So glad I did! I alerted within minutes every time Xbox and PS5 we’re in stock at ALL of the retail outlets. I purchased a GameStop pro subscription and I was never notified on the GameStop app that the Xbox was available. But I was notified from HotStock and able to purchase the Xbox from GameStop through the link from the Hot Stocks app. I couldn’t find the Xbox link from the GameStop app or the GameStop website only through this app. it’s taking people 10 months to buy an Xbox and I was able to buy one only after a few days after downloading HotStock. Yesterday, I made it into the PS5 queue. HotStock has saved me countless hours. and now I’m a proud owner of an Xbox months before Christmas. So happy!!

HotStock works! Look, I don't typically do reviews, but I'm doing this because I want to help someone! If you want a PS5/Xbox Series X, don't even waste time reading this, and download HotStock right now. Before I found out about this app, I was scrambling around checking stores online and in person trying to catch restock drops. HotStock gave me peace of mind and took all the anxiety away. HotStock notifies you in good time when there's going to be a drop, or immediately when there's an unexpected one. In the course of a week, I was able to secure BOTH. A PS5 for me, and a XSX for my brother. To everyone stressing out in the race, HotStock is a life saver! Lastly, make sure that you have accounts signed in and payment methods up to date for the retailers so you can check out faster. Keep up with the comments within HotStock to learn how other people are scoring their consoles. The community is great! Thank you this app for doing what you do!

A friend of mine mentioned HotStock one morning so I downloaded it to search for the elusive Xbox Series X. I signed up and setup the alerts and it told me at that very moment that Target had them in. Clearly this was wrong, but it took me to the target website where I proceeded to order one for pickup. I got an email telling me it would email me again when my order was complete. Aha! This is when I get the email that says “sorry! We’re out of stock.” I went about my day and got a second email like an hour later telling me my order was read. I drove to Target convinced when I got there someone would tell me it was on back order or something. It wasn’t until I was walking back to my vehicle with it in my hands that I realized how easy this whole thing was. Sure, maybe I got lucky and this isn’t the standard experience but it definitely got me my Xbox. I’m still using HotStock to help my friends find their own!

I downloaded this app after I saw recommendations on Reddit to try to purchase a 3000 series GPU. I used the free version at first but decided to pay for the $5 monthly premium access to get priority notifications and the ability to monitor more than one product.

If you are looking to get only 1 item, I don’t think the premium membership is worth it because the servers started to get overloaded with traffic near the drops of popular products. Having notifications on for several products was helpful for my use case however and even though HotStock was unresponsive at times, I only tried one attempt at getting a GPU and got a 3090 on my first try.

The chat feature is extremely helpful because people will discuss upcoming product drops, checkout tips for various websites, and other useful information to make informed buying attempts much more feasible.

There is also a feature to check stock history to narrow down trends of when products become available, time between restocks, etc.

It would seem that some influencers caught wind of HotStock because it slows to a crawl when a drop is about to happen, but I won’t knock it because it still came through for me and did what I expected it to do.

If you’re trying to buy a hard-to-get product right now, HotStock is probably the most well rounded solution available.

My 5 year old asked for a Gabbys Dollhouse for Christmas and of course we couldn’t find them anywhere. I let her know they are really hard to find and asked her if there was something else she wanted. Then she confidently told me she knew she was going to get one. After losing a close family member recently and hearing her say that I knew I wanted to try and find one. I downloaded HotStock and really wasn’t expecting much. Every time it alerted me that they were in stock they would be out just as quickly. Nevertheless I kept trying. Then a couple of days ago it alerted me again and I quickly loaded one into my cart expecting it to say unavailable. Luckily it went through and I was able to snag one!

HotStock is great for the hard to find items that sell out quickly. It alerts you right away, you just need to keep trying every time you get an alert.

Without Hot Stock I would have Never been able to be Lucky enough to purchase a PS5 Console. HotStocks alerts are so exciting to receive for that illusive item you’ve been stalking and hoping to buy. With this app it eliminates a lot of foot work and time you’d have to spend trying to figure out, if it’s even possible to do, when and where that item might come in stock to purchase. But nowadays you also have bots to contend with. Making it an absolute necessity that you use this app to make that purchase you do Really want. this app sends everyone alerts when your item is in stock. But the real way to go, as I did, is to get the $5 per month early notifications. While its very possible to get lucky without it, that $5 per month significantly increases your likelihood of being able to purchase it. I am so grateful for HotStock. Thank You this app!

HotStock is wonderful. It helped me secure the big ticket item that my husband and 2 teenage boys wanted, that I’ve been searching a year for! I will say, at first I didn’t upgrade to the subscription, so when I would get alerts things were already sold out. Once I purchased the subscription, I got alerted more often and was able to actually be either placed in a que to order and finally successfully ordered! Also, a few tips. Please make sure you check what you want often. Hot stock has links to all major retailers and smaller ones as well, check every half an hour, as I’ve seen drops even prior to being alerted, but that because I was a crazy lady, checking constantly. My husband said to give up, I wasn’t going to find the Xbox and because of my bullheadedness and this app, he was completely shocked on Christmas morning. Get HotStock!

I have been looking for an Xbox Series X for nearly a year! I’m 30 years old, with a wife and kids so I didn’t have the time to run from store to store chasing restocks or refreshing pages all day. I was able to order the Halo edition Xbox Series X within 2 days of getting HotStock. I paid for the premium service with is very reasonable and well worth it. I heard my phone at 4:00 in the morning going off and looked to see it was a notification from this app saying BJs has some in stock. I clicked on the notification and it took me straight to the stores website and automatically added it to my cart! (Genius programming on their part!!!). I had set up a BJs account the day prior so that saved me some time during checkout because seconds can make the difference between getting one or not because the restocks sell out that fast! Thank you this app!!!

Using this free app this month, I was (finally) able to get a PS5 for retail price! In the 3 weeks that I used this app, there were only 3 U.S. PS5 restocks that occurred, not any fault to HotStock. The notifications that this app provides are super helpful, ahead of time as to which stores and what times the restocks are scheduled for. Follow this app’s tips and advice on how to give yourself the best chance at actually getting to add a console to your shopping cart through whichever retailer’s store, and then actually being able to get through all of the traffic and process payment, most of these restocks sell out within a couple of minutes of the scheduled time. I have no complaints, highly recommend HotStock! Good luck and be patient, don’t give in to scalper prices.

HotStock helped me score an item that is highly sought after. People complain when they are alerted, but can’t purchase the item. Well guess what, it’s NOT the apps fault. Remember when alerted, and you go to the appropriate website, you have competition from across the U.S. or possibly overseas, that bogs down the servers of the item/items your after.

It’s up to YOU, to be ready to accept the alert and be punctual, possibly have your card information already saved at the appropriate items website, and then fight the masses that are trying to get the same item your after. Again, it’s NOT THIS APPS FAULT! NOR IS IT THE APPS RESPONSIBILITY to purchase your item for you. HotStock does its job, to ALERT YOU of current or in stock items, and DOES IT WELL! HotStock alerted me, and was prepared and was fortunate to get what I wanted. BRAVO this app, BRAVO!!!!!

After not being successful for the Xbox I was about to just quit and happened to manage purchasing one on what I swore was my last attempt! A few days ago I got notified that Walmart was going to stock today for the ps5 so I set a alarm and managed to get one on the first try! Not only did I get the digital but also the disk (only bought disk). There is a upgrade membership where it notifies you first but I don’t have it therefore I’m not to sure how that works. But with just the free version I had no problems! I do also have a couple other apps that send me notifications when the company gets stocked but if I didn’t have HotStock by the time I got notified it would of been out of stock! I am very pleased with HotStock and recommend to anyone looking to buy. Good luck everyone!

To anyone who is ready to give up - DO NOT! HotStock works! I was one of you, chasing all stores for months trying to even get a glimpse of PS5 being available, no luck! Found some internet articles in October that referenced HotStock. Downloaded. Was alerted, but could not be fast enough. Upgraded and was able to buy one at Costco!
Download HotStock and upgrade, it is worth the investment, eventually you will get any hard to find product you are looking for! Chat “family” is super supportive! Make sure you store all your address and card info at the retailers’ sites, for a smoother and FASTER checkout!
Thanks to HotStock, my family will have the BEST surprise on Christmas! Believe! It works!!
Thank you to the inventors of this application and all people who support this product!

Xbox series x, I don’t need to explain how difficult it has been to get one of these during 2020 holiday season (at least this far). Being a busy professional, it is impossible to constantly search retailer sites... and even if I had the time these things are selling out within minutes of becoming available. I credit HotStock with helping me to find available stock immediately upon availability at a major retailer. I was able to quickly order prior to stocking out (which happened in about 20 minutes), picked it up from the retailer within days. I can say with confidence app will have helped me make my son’s Christmas special (the Xbox is the one thing he really is hoping for). Thank you so much guys, keep up the great work! Tom P

It is currently the Covid-19 quarantine and I have been looking for various hard to find items that were sold out absolutely everywhere. Thanks to HotStock I was able to snag what I wanted for the price I wanted. HotStock works better than just signing up to get a notification from the particular website because you only get notified from that when there is a full restock, HotStock will notify you when the company stores have small restocks. The only catch it that you have to be fast, the second you see the notification you have to get it. So be ready to buy before hand. HotStock is great.

It’s good so far and I believe it gets the job done pretty well. Currently, I’m looking into the Oculus Rift S Headset for BestBuy. (Since it seems to be the only store with it coming in stock)

When the alerts come in, I’m pretty quick to go straight to the site. However, when I click “Add To Cart” It’s unable to register the item to my cart, either being because it goes out of stock in a matter of a few seconds, or because it’s just not available for shipping...

I’d like to know your thoughts on this, this app. I hope you respond soon.

I downloaded HotStock because I saw it mentioned on some subreddit somewhere about trying to find the new Pulse 3D headset for PlayStation...which is exactly what I was trying to do.

I downloaded HotStock , made an account with about 2 taps, searched for the headset, and BOOM. It showed me a site it was in stock. I clicked and it very quickly opened safari and took me directly to the product page where I was able to successfully order my headset.

Highly recommend to anyone looking to snag PlayStation items or any other hard to find items.

This is a good app to alert you when things come back on stock, I have been searching to find a Nintendo lite switch - Coral but it’s not in HotStock which was disappointing because I have been searching for many months to get this console this is the only problem I have however everything seems to be good :) If you have the time please respond on why this item isn’t here but other lites are. Thank you and keep up the good work!

A bit too slow for finding RTX 3080 or 3090 graphics cards in stock. By the time it notifies me, the card is out of stock again. Granted these graphics cards are an insanely rare commodity right now. I wouldn’t mind so much, except that it keeps notifying me another ~5 times about that same item that is now out of stock. Good app overall though.

I got HotStock about a month ago when I wanted a nintendo switch, because I saw it on a reddit post. Absolutely 100% recommend downloading this FREE app. No advertisement as far as I could tell, and I was able to get my switch the next day. You can pick a price range, certain stores you trust, and exact models. People restock more often than you think, multiple times a day in my case.

This was my comment when I got my item: “ I was a little sad everyone was out of stock. Turned on notifs and got one in a few hours. Places restock more than you would think, mine came today and I couldn’t be happier with HotStock!”

I still stand by these words and use HotStock as often as I need. HotStock doesn’t ping you to “come back” like other apps, so I will never have to delete it!

I hope HotStock gets the attention it deserves :)

After discovering it was nearly impossible to find a Nintendo switch on a whim, I did some research and found HotStock last Sunday. It is now Wednesday and I was able to buy one because of HotStock! You have to act pretty quickly because sometimes by the time you see the notification and open up the store’s website it is already sold out. Eventually however I was able to get one. 100% recommend

I tried HotStock to try and preorder a PlayStation 5 and found it extremely helpful. I particularly appreciate the feature that shows when retailers last had items available in stock, which gives you a better idea for trends of future availability. Also had good experience with the developers being responsive to implement helpful changes. 10/10 would recommend.

HotStock helped my husband and I purchase a Nintendo Switch! I’m so happy I decided to download it. We’ve been wanting one for so long, and could never find one since this COVID-19. I was frustrated in the beginning because even when we received notification one was finally in stock, I would quickly go on the store website and it would be sold out right away. Today I was lucky! Trust me, you will get one eventually using HotStock! 👍🏻

I rarely write reviews, but this app has an awesome support team and I felt I needed to let others know. I’m part of the mining craze and finding stock is nearly impossible. Their alerts are real time, faster than the other free options I was using. The paid for monthly service is well worth the price tag. The best part is they are willing to work with you to make helpful adjustments for the alerts if needed. Thanks this app!!

I had been looking for a Nintendo Switch Lite for DAYS. I was calling stores, checking online inventories and it got me no where. Saw that someone suggested HotStock online and I was skeptical but so desperate to get my hands on a console. Literally the next morning after having HotStock and the alerts set up I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO ORDER A CONSOLE! Save your time and energy and get HotStock. I was so surprised that this was free and actually worked!

I got HotStock to alert me for a Nintendo Switch, and after only about a day of having it I got an alert and purchased right before it sold out. One thing I would say is that you do have to be quick to buy something it alerts you for, and some online stores don’t save your item just because you have it in your cart, so buy quickly if you need HotStock to alert you.

I downloaded HotStock maybe a week ago. I’ve been on the hunt for a Nintendo switch. It hasn’t helped me yet. I get notifications that it’s in stock but when I immediately go to buy it’s always out of stock. I even paid the premium price to be the first to know and im still having the same issue. Not sure if it’s HotStock or bots buying up all the switches but I’m seeing reviews that people download HotStock and almost immediately are able to purchase a Switch. That has not been the case for me. Still on the hunt unfortunately. Will update if it changes.

I was able to buy 3 high demand Nintendo products with the help of HotStock. Thank you developer because I don’t have time to constantly refresh store websites and the emails and text messages from other services always felt like they arrived too late to be of any use.

It still took a while but I was able to eventually get everything I was looking for.
