The Motley Fool 4+

I like being able to access the MF info from my phone, and the app does a fairly decent job in this respect. I do notice that sometimes loading graph data seems to hang, and I have to kill and restart the app. One thing that needs immediate attention from the developers is the login process. It could be a lot smoother. There needs to be an option to use biometrics for login, and that process should be seamless. I’d give more than 3 stars, if this were fixed.

The app has the look and feel of something developed by a 12 year old. And yes, the picture in the App Store is not what I have. Stocks added to my portfolio don’t appear. When I go to add it again, the check mark is there by the symbol. Close the app and reopen. Still not there.

The basic subscription is the stripped down version they use to upsell you their way more expensive products. I know I paid just $99 for an annual subscription but they could provide SOME useful information. Very disappointed with their product. I was inundated with so many promotional emails and push notifications that I already unsubscribed from email. Don’t know if I will use this at all since Yahoo Finance and Stocktwits are 100% better.

I’ve been using this app for a while and I have not been impressed. For example, a new headline will pop up and when I click on it, the app either keeps spinning or it causes my iPad to freeze resulting in a hard reboot in order to clear it. I’ve reinstalled the app several times and I still get the same results. In addition, it is not as easy to navigate as the website—I always find myself going back to the website when I can’t find a particular item/article on the app. I was hoping that the glitches have been fixed with this app but I have recently deleted it after the last iPad freeze.
