Version 3.0 — September 15 2026

🆕 New Features

Messages & calls

  • Voice and video calls, straight from the conversation.

  • Send your location in chat (not live tracking) to agree where to meet.

  • A new Messages icon at the top shows your latest conversations without leaving the page.

  • When you press "Contact" on a listing, your earlier messages with the seller appear in the same window.

  • Like messages, and see the listing you're discussing and the member at the top of the conversation.

  • As a seller, mark a listing as "Sold" right from the conversation with the buyer.

  • Block a member from the menu on their profile: neither of you can send the other messages or offers, and you can lift the block at any time without losing the conversation.

Notifications

  • A new notification centre: the bell and the Notifications page gather everything that concerns you into Today / Yesterday / Older, with an Unread tab and one-click mark as read.

  • Notifications also arrive as push notifications on your phone, and in Settings you choose separately what you want: messages, offers, saved searches, sellers you follow, saves and reviews.

  • Sellers see when someone saves their listing (e.g. "3 people saved your listing").

Search

  • Smart search: describe what you're looking for in your own words (e.g. "warm jazz guitar under 800") and get a short answer with matching listings, plus filters, sorting and a "More" button.

  • Under every Smart search answer, tell us whether it helped (👍/👎) and what was missing.

  • The search box shows example searches and a "Trending now" row with what most members are searching for right now.

  • Save a search even when it has no results, so you're notified as soon as something matching is posted.

Posting a listing

  • A new 7-step posting form for everyone: choose whether you're selling, swapping or looking, type what it is, and the brand, model and category are recognised automatically. If something isn't in our catalogue, AI identifies it and you can correct it before publishing.

  • Drafts: leave as many listings half-done as you like and continue later with one button, and everything you type is saved automatically.

  • Video in listings: upload a file or add a YouTube link.

  • Audio clips: upload or record up to 3 clips of your instrument's sound straight from your phone.

  • Rotate and crop photos right in the form.

  • A subtitle of up to 60 characters under the title (e.g. "with hard case"), and bold, italics and lists in the description.

  • A new "Not working" condition for gear that doesn't work.

  • Right after publishing, see which promotion brought the most views in your section, with real figures.

Offers

  • Sellers can send a price offer to the people who saved their listing, to all of them or only the most recent, without anyone's identity being revealed.

  • If you made a counter-offer and changed your mind, accept the original offer with one click.

  • Every offer has a "Message" button to talk to the other person directly.

  • In list view, every listing has buttons to message, make an offer and save, without opening the listing.

Profiles, reviews & members

  • Redesigned member profiles: photo, "Member since", last seen with a green dot when online, typical reply time, how much they've sold and what they mainly sell, with Listings and Reviews tabs.

  • On profiles and at the top of the chat, see whether the member has a verified mobile (and its country), when they joined, and how many sales and reviews they have, so you get a better picture of who you're talking to.

  • Sellers can reply to the reviews they've received, and you can mark a review as "Helpful".

  • When writing a review, you choose the listing it's about.

  • A new Members page: who you follow, who follows you and who you've blocked, with suggestions from your conversations. When a seller you follow posts new listings, you're notified.

  • Change or remove your profile photo right from your profile page.

Account & privacy

  • Sign in with an email link: get in with one click, even if your account was created with Google or Facebook and you don't have a password.

  • Sign in with Apple.

  • Member pages no longer appear on Google unless you ask them to, and you can hide your last name.

  • Choose whether sellers see your name when you save their listing, and whether you want to receive offers on listings you've saved.

Payments

  • After every promotion payment, you receive the receipt by email.

Sections

  • New filters in dozens of categories for the specs that matter: guitar and bass amps, keyboards and synths, Hi-Fi and PA speakers, microphones, cymbal size, audio interface connection, string count and left-handed instruments.

  • A new "Condition" filter in almost every category, and a "Form factor" filter (19" rack, 500 series, desktop) for studio gear.

  • New categories: Tuners, Machine Heads, Tremolo & Floyd Rose, Bridges & Tailpieces, Pickguards, Electronics & Switches, Amp Accessories, Headphone Amps, Patchbays & Stageboxes, Hi-Fi Equalizers, Truss & Lifting, Video & Projection, Software & Plugins, Saz, and Lighting and Stands are now split into subcategories.

  • At the bottom of every category there are "By type", "By brand", "By region" and "By city" links with listing counts.

  • The home page has sections for Music Tutors and Bands & Musicians with the latest ads.

⚡ Enhanced
Search

  • Search forgives typos ("guitsr", "distorsion") and understands Greeklish ("mpouzouki", "thelo mia kithara"), singular and plural, and matching Greek and English words ("μαγνήτες" / "pickups").

  • As you type, suggestions show brands and models with their listing counts (e.g. "gibs" → Gibson (174)).

  • Smart search stays within the category you're searching in, suggests categories, and asks when a name could mean two things (Jackson guitars or CDs).

  • When you search for a musician you see musicians looking for a band, and when you search for a band you see bands looking for a musician.

  • The Saved searches page has been rebuilt: each search is a card with its filters, a "Results" button and a notifications switch, and you can add a new one right from the page.

Listings

  • Listings from sellers who don't answer buyers are taken down, so you don't waste time writing to listings nobody reads. A listing is only taken down when the seller genuinely ignores buyers: messages they never opened and no reply to our "Is it still available?" email. Sellers who answer their messages aren't affected, however old their listing is.

  • A new look for listing cards: a bigger square photo, titles up to three lines, a cleaner location line, the same card everywhere, and highlighted listings stand out with a soft gold border.

  • In list view, every listing shows one plain date ("3 weeks ago"), a more readable condition and a subtle divider between listings.

  • Listings with video or audio show a mark on the card; on the listing page the "Watch the video" button takes you straight to it, and audio plays in a new player.

  • The "price drop" badge only appears for a real cut of at least 3% against the lowest price of the previous 30 days, and disappears after 30 days.

  • Phone numbers and emails are no longer published in titles or descriptions; the form tells you as you type and reminds you that buyers reach you by message.

  • "Similar listings" are ranked by how similar they are (price, brand, condition, region), and featured listings get priority there too.

  • If you open a listing that's no longer available, you see whether it sold or was withdrawn, along with similar listings available now.

  • Wanted ads sit inside the category of the instrument being sought, marked "Wanted", and can include photos, video and audio.

  • Sharing a listing is now a compact row of icons, and on phones it opens your device's own share menu.

Posting a listing

  • The form asks for the specs that matter in each category (strings and handedness for guitars, watts and channels for amps, effect type for pedals, year of manufacture) and fills them in automatically when it knows the model.

  • The form adapts to your ad: Wanted ads aren't asked for condition or delivery, exchange-only ads ask what you're swapping, services aren't asked for a brand, and you're not asked for a price when looking for a musician.

  • When you pick a product, the form shows which category it goes in and opens the list at the right spot if a more specific subcategory is needed. The model is found however you type it ("TD-4", "TD4", "TD 4").

  • Your listing is published immediately, even if you enter a brand or model we don't have in the catalogue yet.

  • A price of €1 is no longer accepted; you're offered "Exchange only" or "Accepting offers" instead.

  • When you choose "New", we explain that it means sealed and unused.

  • Adding a video needs at least one photo first, so no listing shows an empty picture.

Offers & my listings

  • Offers notify you when you receive an offer or counter-offer, and when it's accepted (the chat opens straight away) or declined, with a "Make a new offer" button.

  • The My Offers page is a single list that shows whether each offer was sent or received, with counter-offers under the offer they answer.

  • A redesigned My Listings page: All / Active / Inactive / Sold filters, search within your listings, who saved each one, one-click copy link, and a cleaner layout on phones.

Profiles & reviews

  • You can review a member you actually did a deal with (a listing marked as sold plus messages between you), and the button explains what's needed if that isn't the case yet.

  • You're notified when someone reviews you and when a seller replies to your review, with an email that shows the review and a reply button.

  • The My Reviews page shows both the reviews you've received and the ones you've written, and a second review of the same seller within 30 minutes replaces the first instead of creating a duplicate.

  • Clicking a seller's name opens their listings first, and tapping their photo in the chat opens their profile.

  • If you haven't verified your mobile, your profile reminds you with a button.

Messages

  • Messages send instantly (with "retry" if something fails), a noiz listing link turns into a card with photo and price, and long conversations load much faster.

  • A new message from another member only shows on the Messages icon, not a second time in the bell; push notifications to your phone continue as usual.

  • Better scam protection.

Sign-up & sign-in

  • A shorter sign-up form: account type, location and a mobile number verified on the spot, with a single checkbox for the Terms of Use. Private sellers are no longer asked for an address, and the newsletter is your choice.

  • A redesigned login window with the Google, Facebook, Apple and X buttons side by side.

  • After signing up with Google, Facebook or Apple, completing your profile is asked once, before you send a message or post a listing, and only for what's missing.

  • A new design for noiz emails, in your language and with buttons that say what they do.

Payments

  • The checkout page is fully in Greek, explains what each plan includes, and shows the net amount and 24% VAT.

  • Featured prices vary by section: cheaper for pedals, parts and accessories, and service sections gain 180-day and one-year plans.

Look & navigation

  • The category bar under the logo has drop-down subcategory menus, Pedals by effect type, Brands, Services and Newest; on phones it scrolls sideways and opens subcategories with one tap.

  • On phones: a slimmer floating bottom bar with Profile, Messages, Notifications, Favourites and Sell, a centred logo, full-width search, and a "Back" button to return to your results.

  • The language selector and the light/dark theme switch have moved to the bottom of the page, and the footer on phones is much shorter.

  • A new typeface with full Greek support, one consistent orange, an easier-on-the-eyes dark theme and a less intrusive cookie notice.

  • Pages are about 28% lighter and load faster, the home page opens straight onto the categories, and region-filtered pages open faster.

  • The listing count appears in the category heading, the counts in the menu match what you see, and the save heart on cards is easier to spot.

Sections

  • Musicians Wanted is now a single page with an easy-to-read list of instruments, genres and city, and filters update the list instantly. Cards in Bands and Music Tutors show what the ad is about.

  • Music Tutors has new filters for lesson type (online, at your place, at the teacher's) and subject.

  • Acoustic-electric guitars are now part of Acoustic Guitars as a feature, wireless microphones sit under Microphones with a "Connection" filter, and guitar accessories appear in the Guitars menu.

  • Hundreds of listings and models were moved to the right subcategory (including over 100 amplifiers), over 100 duplicate models were merged in the filters, and pedal types were cleaned up so filters like Flanger show what they say.

  • The Computers & Software section has been retired; music software now lives under Pro Audio → Software & Plugins.

🐞 Fixed

  • Signing up with Google or Facebook works first time, cancelling no longer shows an error, your Facebook photo is imported, and Facebook no longer creates a second account.

  • Members wrongly blocked by the spam filter from signing up can now register normally.

  • "Remember me" no longer signs you out when you have two tabs open.

  • The site opens again on some Android phones (Chrome) that got stuck on the "offline" page.

  • Filters: the button no longer reads "Show 0 results", a selected filter shows its name instead of a number, the Brand and Location filters are no longer empty on search results, and region filters work on the English site too.

  • Searches with a slash ("AC/DC", "5/53") and short searches like "DI" no longer lead to errors or unrelated results, and new listings appear in Smart search again within minutes.

  • Listings you switch back on after marking them "Sold" stay active, and the "SOLD" badge shows correctly on your listings.

  • In the posting form: the price shows its €, photos from your phone no longer come out sideways, the location is saved and "Continue" tells you what's missing, the English version shows English, and the browser no longer autofills your email into the title.

  • When you edit a listing in the new form, the brand and model are saved correctly, price changes are recorded in the "Price history", and audio and video no longer appear as blank photos.

  • You can post in Musicians Wanted again, and the page no longer shows up empty for anyone who had sorted by price.

  • Reviews: the "Write a review" button works, submitting no longer shows an error, and offer emails arrive in the recipient's language.

  • If you pay for a promotion by card and close the page before returning, the promotion still activates.

  • Titles with quotes or symbols (e.g. 21" or &) display correctly, page headings no longer cut off Greek letters, and members with a Greek name and no photo no longer see "?" instead of their initial.

  • Text that appeared in the wrong language (at checkout, on Credits, on "Recently viewed") has been fixed, and the "Recently viewed" page no longer gets stuck on "Loading…".

  • The "Back" button on phones, the login window on phones with a notch, the noiz icon on the iPhone home screen and switching theme without reloading all work properly.

  • In dark theme the filter panel, payment buttons, message list and brands page are properly readable, and empty ad boxes no longer sit among the listings.

  • Security improvements to sign-up, sign-in, password reset, reviews and listing management, and your password is no longer sent to you by email.
