Ratings and reviews

Used to love this app couple years ago. Over the last 6 months it's been one problem after another. First the log in issues where the app basically crashes on the juiciest trading days of the year. their tech team basically told me it'll keep happening going forward. Then started the "account not found" error as I hit the send button. Now It buffers all day and I miss trade after trade. This app has cost me thousands. Time to go

This app has progressively gotten worse with every update. This app is a slow decline into garbage from what it was formally with TD Ameritrade. Wishe, it is still under TD's team control. A perfect example of going from worse to worser. Very slow loading times. Unable to login. Now, with this latest update, it's telling me to contact tech support. as if there is an actual person on the other end and not AI or someone from India.

Terrible. Completely different experience from the desktop app. This should be thrown in the trash and replaced with something useful. No position tracking, only quotes on positions. P/L day is useless. P/L Open is needed. Interface is frustraring to say the least. Dynamic lists dont work. No scanning function.

What's new

Throw on your favorite jacket and head outside before it gets too chilly. We’ve got some new mobile updates we believe you will “fall” for. See what we did there?

- On our Overview screen, you can view your individual account balances to see how each is performing
- Introducing the Trail Stop Limit order
- You can now transfer funds in or out of your IRA accounts
- Adding Total Cost column and Margin Futures requirement to Watch List values

Peace, love, and happy trading.
