We&#8217;ve made it easier to get alerts of deals on Canon gear and other popular photography equipment.<\/p>\n<h3>New Push Notification Feature<\/h3>\n<p>You can now receive your CPW alerts via <b>push notification<\/b> &#8212; these alerts will show in the &#8220;notifications tray&#8221; on your desktop computer (Windows or MacOS), or on your Android device.<\/p>\n<p><b>UPDATE:<\/b> For iPhone or iPad push notifications, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpricewatch.com\/blog\/push-notifications-ios-ipados\/\">follow these instructions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This can be in addition to, or even instead of, the conventional email-based notifications that you may already receive from us. Configure your notification methods in the &#8220;Notification Methods&#8221; pane of our newly redesigned <a href=\"\/notifications\/\">notification management page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>New &#8220;Watchlists&#8221; Feature<\/h3>\n<p>We&#8217;re making it easier for you to control which notifications that you receive. We&#8217;ve introduced <b>watchlists<\/b> &#8212; add items to your watchlist and we&#8217;ll notify you (by email or push) whenever there&#8217;s a deal on the item. You will also be notified of our occasional secret\/unpublished deals on items &#8212; deals so good that dealers don&#8217;t even want them posted! You can add items to your watchlist by clicking the bell icon on a product page (e.g. the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpricewatch.com\/product\/06700\/Canon-EOS-R-price.html\">EOS R<\/a>) or from the <a href=\"\/notifications\/\">notification management page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Use the watchlist when you only are interested in a couple products, or when you want to minimize the number of notifications that you receive.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to miss anything, you can still <b>subscribe<\/b> (use the bell icon on the main page, or via the <a href=\"\/notifications\/\">notification management page<\/a>) to receive notifications on all of the great deals that we post. On average, we post between one and two hand-curated deals per day.<\/p>\n<h3>Changes to Price Target Alerts<\/h3>\n<p>Our old notification system is still available &#8212; it has been renamed to <b>price target alerts<\/b>. This is still useful for advanced users who want alerts for used\/refurbished restock, or have a specific price target in mind. <b>In general, we recommend that you use the &#8220;watchlist&#8221; feature instead, as it will give you the most relevant alerts for that item.<\/b> Price target alerts are now sent via email and\/or push notification, according to your &#8220;Notification Methods&#8221; configuration.<\/p>\n<p>You can manage your price target alerts on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpricewatch.com\/notifications-advanced\/\">price target alerts console<\/a>. By default, price target alerts now expire 180 days after they are set. This is to ensure the alerts still remain relevant to you &#8212; you can renew or re-setup the same alert after expiry, if the price target is still of interest.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t Want Alerts? No Problem.<\/h3>\n<p>If email alerts or push notifications are still not for you, you can follow our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpricewatch.com\/blog\/rss\/\">RSS feed<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CanonPriceWatch\">Facebook page<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CanonPriceWatch\">Twitter feed<\/a> to keep up with the best of Canon deals.<\/p>\n<h3>Problems?
