Mobile Armory Guild Chat and Auction House Features Now Free

Mobile Armory Guild Chat and Auction House Features Now Free

It’s now easier than ever to stay in touch with your guildmates and access the World of Warcraft® auction house... wherever you go.

Starting today, all of the features that were previously part of the optional World of Warcraft Remote subscription service are now available for free to all World of Warcraft subscribers. These features include:

  • Remote Guild Chat – Stay in touch with your guildmates on the go using your mobile phone.
  • Remote Auction House – Bid on items, create auctions, and collect gold via your mobile device or through the official World of Warcraft website.

We hope this change will make it easier for players to stay connected to each other and to the game, and we encourage everyone to try out these powerful tools for themselves.

As a reminder, to take full advantage of these features, you’ll need the World of Warcraft Mobile Armory app, available for free for your Android™ device, iPhone®, or iPod® touch. The app also includes a number of other handy tools:

Features:

 Full Character Profiles

  • 3D Viewer
  • Activity Feed
  • Achievements
  • Character Stats

 Remote Auction House

  • Browse Auctions
  • Create Auctions
  • Bid on Items
  • Claim Your Gold

 Remote Guild Chat

  • Guild & Officers Channels
  • Saved Whisper Conversations
  • Guildmate Presence
  • Chat Push Notifications

 Other Features

  • Guild Profiles
  • Realm Status

To access the web-based Auction House, simply visit www.worldofwarcraft.com, log in with your Battle.net® account, view your character profile, and click the Auctions link on the left-hand menu of the profile page.

If you’re a current World of Warcraft Remote subscriber, you’ll receive an email from Blizzard soon with more information about the end of your subscription. In the meantime, you do not need to take any action.

come on bliz, lumia 900 please, i would happily pay for the app, why would you cut off so many people from another potential pay stream, almost all my mates are dumping ios for wp, i mean you sell plastic chars, tshirts and all manner of items, but your programmers cant change a few text lines to adapt it, once programmed its free money in the bank, this makes no sence at all.

Question remains: when will Blizzard release Wow for IOS / Android? Got the feeling that there are several wow clones in the app stores already. Should be possible to make a playable version for mobile devices...

I am extremely happy about this (free remote)!!!
But... I was very surprised that I got auction listings limit... I thought the full version didn't have limits... But sadly "In order to help prevent abuse of this service, there is a system in place to limit the total number of Auction House transactions (including bids, buyouts, and creating auctions) that a single World of Warcraft account can perform through World of Warcraft Remote each day. Currently, the limit is set to 200 transactions per day. Our goal with this system is to ensure that most players who are using the service will not reach the limit, and we will be continuously monitoring how the service is used and making adjustments as needed."
Well, this is really REALLY not enough.. Just listing some materials easily uses this limit :(
Any thoughts on changing this, now that You made it free and some people REALLY enjoy the ability to list auctions while not at home, and come back and PLAY instead of standing at mailbox/AH? :)
