Bundle support in the mobile apps

Greetings folks,

We've just released version 1.6 of the iOS mobile app, which now includes full support for purchasing the content bundles that we've begun to offer. I expect that most of you have iOS set up to auto-update your apps, but in case you don't, I'd like to encourage you to update to 1.6. Now that the app has been updated, we'll be promoting future bundles in our promotional emails, app notifications, and on the app landing page, and older apps will unfortunately display an error message if you try to view a bundle.

We're also about to release version 1.5.2 of the Android mobile app. This app doesn't have complete bundle support yet, but it will display an informative message with the details of the bundle offer, and offer to send you to the store in your mobile browser. Full bundle support for Android is coming soon.

Incidentally, both of these apps also include a fix for the issue where movies that were on sale would sometimes incorrectly show a higher price if you had something like a disc-to-digital or upgrade offer for that movie.

Happy shopping!
 
Just on bundles in general, love how I can finally now select a bunch from a page without having to “buy all” and then manually uncheck one’s I don’t want. Maybe we’ll get ”buy x get y free” or something offers :)
 
FYI, the bundle feature on the mobile app is currently available only when we have a promotional bundle offer for that collection. On the web store, a "Build your Bundle" feature replaced the "Buy All" button -- it basically uses the same workflow as the promotional bundles, but titles are at normal pricing. As you mentioned, it's basically a convenient way to buy multiple titles at once.

We plan to bring this functionality to the mobile apps as well, so stay tuned on that front.
