Chinese online retailer AliExpress launches a universal app for Windows 10

Launched in 2010, AliExpress.com is a popular Chinese online marketplace made up of mostly small Chinese businesses offering products to international online buyers.

Part of the Chinese e-commerce giant, Alibaba Group, AliExpress offers access to over 100 million products ranging from clothing, shoes and accessories, to car parts, electronics and baby care items with free shipping on over 75% of their catalogue.

WindowsTeca discovered that the online retailer has launched their official app on Windows Store. A UWP app, AliExpress Shopping App, is available for both Windows 10 PCs and Windows 10 Mobile devices.

The app is a refined web wrapper, but works well and offers a neat user experience. You can also dig daily deals, regular promotions, and a variety of coupon giveaways.

If you are an existing customer at AliExpress, the AliExpress Shopping app is a neat addition. I frequently order from the portal, and you might want to give it a whirl and see if you can find something interesting at a great price.
