Walmart makes iPhone web app for quick browsing but not purchases

0

It appears that much of the online world is accepting and adapting to Apple’s iPhone. Walmart is the latest to adapt their online store specifically for the iPhone. Just navigate to Walmart.com and you will be directed to an iPhone specific portal.

The site is very much like the regular HTML version, just adapted for the much smaller touchscreen. From the initial home page you can browse through products by category, current specials or even the list of approved $4 prescriptions. You can even create your own shopping list while physically shopping at the store for those items you have to wait for.

Want to search the local store? Just pull out your phone and look to see whether they have what you’re looking for for instant pickup. Unfortunately you will have to visit the actual website to purchase an item. The Walmart web app is basically only for browsing products and getting data.
