Unable to list items from ebay app

Anyone else in the uk having this problem when trying to list items from the ebay app? Never had this before until today. I usually list all my items from the app but today ive been getting the error "your listing looks great so far, but a detour is required for items in this category "

If I try to list a mobile phone it works but when I try to list car parts then it shows the error. As something changed with ebay?

Hi All,

 

Thank you for your posts.

 

This seems like it might be to do with the car parts category.

@06holmesh customer support have logged a ticket with tech for your account for it to be checked. Are you able to provide a screenshot showing the detour message from your account so we can add this to the ticket?

 

Thank you,

Kat

Yep, getting the same message trying to list in vehicle parts and accessories. Same when I try to revise any current listings, it wants me to divert to the web browser which is a really slow way of listing.

My listing time is near double now with this problem.  The app is so much faster to list items.
