What's new in Inky

Every update from the Inky team, newest first — the same news we email, kept here so nothing gets lost in an inbox.

Inky is on Google Play

— Get Inky is now an Android app too. Same account, same Pearls, same Inky — on any Android phone.

Same Inky, on Android.

Take the front, back, tags, and flaws straight into Inky from your phone, and everything you already have is right there when you sign in.

Plans in the Android app.

A plan you start in the Android app is billed through your Google Play account, and you manage or cancel it in Google Play under Payments & subscriptions.

The website stays put.

Everything still works at get-inky.com on any phone or computer. The apps are the phone-sized front door, not a replacement.

A rating helps here too.

A new app on Google Play starts invisible. A short, honest rating from someone who actually sells with Inky does more for us than any ad we could buy.

One Pearl goes a long way

— Every job Inky does now spends Pearls — and the everyday work is batched so one Pearl covers a run of it. Nothing you have already done is charged; the meters start at zero today.

The batches.

Photo Studio: 64 photos per Pearl, and a photo you have already worked on never counts again. Inky Intake and Item Capture: 64 items filed per Pearl. Ask Inky, offers advice, where an item should sell, and drafted eBay replies: 16 answers per Pearl. Reading a tape measure or a photo on its own: 16 per Pearl. Writing a listing or checking a price is still one Pearl; the deep studio polish is still two.

You will see it coming.

Photo Studio and Ask Inky now show a running count — 40 of 64, 3 of 16 — so the Pearl is never a surprise. If a wallet is empty when the next one is due, Inky says so before doing the work, not after.

Plans, and the free eight.

A new account starts with eight Pearls and no card. When they are spent, the next step is a plan — Little Nudge is 50 Pearls a month for $4.99, and every plan includes the whole toolkit. Members can add Pearls any time, and bought Pearls never expire. We price all of it as fairly as we can; margins in this business are tight.

Inky Mall OS 0.10.10.

For shops: quantity deals — buy two, get one free, on one item, any items from a booth, or the whole store; the register applies it on its own and a cashier can take it off a sale with one tap. And the full user guide is one searchable PDF, under ⋯ → Help in the register and on your account page.

Inky is on the App Store

— Get Inky is now a real iPhone app. Same account, same Pearls, same Inky — she just lives on your home screen now.

Why it matters on a phone.

Most of the work happens where the items are: the closet, the booth, the back room. The app opens straight to the camera, takes the front, back, tags, and flaws without first saving a pile of photos to your phone, and the share sheet sends photos to Inky from anywhere. Sign in with Apple, and everything you already have is right there.

The site isn't going anywhere.

Everything still works at get-inky.com on any phone or computer, and shipping labels and in-store imports stay on the web. The app is the phone-sized front door, not a replacement.

If she's earning her keep, a rating helps.

A new app on the App Store starts invisible. A short, honest rating from someone who actually sells with Inky does more for us than any ad we could buy. Android: not yet, and we won't promise a date we can't keep.

Meet Inky: the whole app in five minutes

— One video, every room in the house. Inky herself walks you through each page and what it does — five minutes, start to finish.

A tour you can watch on the couch.

Listings, Photo Studio, pricing, inventory, every marketplace page, shipping and Inky Print, the books, Ask Inky, and the shop tools — page by page, in Inky's own words. If you've ever wondered what a room is for, this is the five minutes that answers it.

New members see it first.

It now opens the setup wizard, so everyone who joins from here on starts with the same tour. If you've been here a while, this is your copy.

eBay is live, bulk Poshmark, and our new Facebook group

— A big batch of updates — direct eBay posting, Etsy approval, bulk uploads, and a new place to talk to us and each other.

eBay is live.

Connect your eBay account and Inky posts your listing directly — photos, copy, price, the whole thing. If eBay changes a price outside Inky, one tap syncs it back.

Etsy is approved.

Etsy approved our app, so Etsy connections are live too. If you connected Etsy before, you'll need to reconnect once — it takes a few seconds.

Bulk Poshmark uploads.

Build a CSV of your items in Inky and upload them to Poshmark in one go — no more one-at-a-time. Whatnot sellers get the same CSV-first lane for show prep.

A better photo studio.

Background removal, a dedicated glass & ceramics mode that protects color, and one-tap “Use my last” to reapply your lighting and color settings across a batch.

Money tools.

Sales history and earnings, optional tax tracking (invisible if you don't want it), and CSV import for your existing books. Plus Print Your Label — free 4x6 shipping labels straight from your phone.

Easier to get around.

My Items got a facelift with multi-select, and you can now find any page by typing what you'd call it into search.
