Written by the checker for a first version. Paste it into Vibecode as is, or change it to make the app yours.
Build an iPhone app for people buying and selling used items in their local area. The main screen should show a photo grid of listings with prices, item names, and approximate areas. Add a search box and filters for category and area. Tapping a listing should open its photos, description, price, and sample seller details. A clear Sell button should open a form for photos, title, price, category, description, and area. Save new listings on the device for this first version. Use realistic sample listings for furniture, bikes, clothing, and household items. Keep the design friendly and simple, with white backgrounds, blue buttons, readable text, and large photos. Show approximate areas rather than exact home addresses.

Vibecode builds a first version from one prompt, and the checker would start with these parts: browse sample local listings with search and area filters; open a listing to see photos, price, description, and seller details; create a listing with photos and save it on your device. Plan on a weekend for a working first version with its real features.
Vibecode's first build is free for new accounts that sign up with Google or Apple on the web or the iPhone app, as the account's first project: one build of about 10 minutes with up to 3 features, on sample data. After that you need credits, from a paid plan or auto-reload. For your own version of Facebook Marketplace, the checker lists these costs: Vibecode Plus ($20 a month); Apple Developer Program ($99 a year).
Facebook Marketplace already has nearby buyers, sellers and listings, plus Facebook profiles that give people context about who they are dealing with. A version you build yourself won't have these: Facebook's nearby buyers and sellers; existing local item listings; established Facebook profile histories; accumulated seller ratings.
