Ratings and reviews

User friendly interface that changes every 6 months. Also they have not sorted out how to account for mergers, splits, spin offs or reverse splits. I have multiple securities the app does not display an accurate cost basis. After asking I was offers to have a spreadsheet sent to me with data rather than fixing their application and cost tracking.

This Robinhood app has a very messy liking platform and is confusing to use. I was trying to cover a deficit and it charges the same payment twice because I did not get any confirmation that it went through!! And you don't know what transactions you are completing with all the tabs, and options. It feels like it's on purpose and really needs to be revamped.

I've liked Robinhood almost from when it initially started. I do wish the limited research and articles were more relevant. There should be different levels of articles. a set for the beginning type young investor then progress to the expert type articles. Currently, they are not relevant to many using Robinhood. Articles should be made unlimited and more information available without having to get a subscription to see more relevant information. Robinhood can afford to eat these costs.
