eBay know about this but not sure when the problem will be solved. Hopefully they'll sort it out soon.

Hi superpeteman, thanks for your post.

Could you please confirm the device model you're using, the software version, and the eBay app version you have on your phone? If you could please upload a screenshot of the error you're referring to, I will be able to report this to our technical team.

Thank you,

Marco

I'm unable to access the app too, has been like this for some weeks. I use Google pixel 9 phone. I can't run searches, access my listings or inbox. I have different messages that come up, dependent on what I try to access.

A Community manager recently posted this below, recommends uninstalling and reinstalling the app and also.....

Check to see you have the latest app version as there has been recent updates.

Android version when updated needs android system 12 and up

IOS newest version works with IOS 18 or later

Ensure you have the correct update with the correct device.

Thank you, all resolved. I uninstalled and installed the app back.

All of this has been done multiple times. Nothing will make any difference because the App is completely unusable. Totally screwed. I have spent a fortune on Vinted in the last few months as I don't use the desktop version of eBay. If my stuff sells I won't know so I'll have to access the desktop version briefly & remove my items.

Same, it's stuck at loading all the time. All I can see is the loading skeleton. If I try to sign in it stucks at loading.

I solved the problem by deleting the app, then re installing.

gracehan000 — Mon, 04 May 2026 18:08:08 GMT

I did that twice (deleting the app then re-installing), it didn't work for me. Still having issues.

Thanks for the update. It seems like the issue is on the app or server side. Please wait for a while and try again later.

I've been having this problem all day today (16th May 2026). Inbox says there are 3 messages, tap on inbox and I get "Try tapping "reload" to try again". Attempting to read the messages in a web browser on a PC and they are not showing at all.

Uninstall and reinstall should fix it for you

trevorwood — Mon, 18 May 2026 12:55:03 GMT

I uninstalled and reinstalled the App, that fixed it. Bit, we shouldn't have to do that.
