Ratings and reviews

Barchart will not load all the time with Android 7.0. Have to re-boot phone to get it to load only one time. Worked good on Android 6.0. Please learn how to "debug" before presenting software improvements. Another annoying item is the every couple of days (5 days or less) agreeing to the terms of using this software.

App has surprisingly good UI and no ads (my free edition). But I have not been able to figure out how to copy lists I've created from one phone to another, can't find dividend yield, and most annoying the Y price axis is too small to see on anything better than a basic smart phone. App has not been updated in years.

I have used the Barchart app for nearly 24/7/365 since 2013. It is definitely the best app for watchlists & portfolio(s). I used many other Market apps & none, except Yahoo's finance app, have the features of Barchart. The only drawback, IMHO, is the inability to use Samsung's Smart Switch app to copy my lists to a new phone, tablet or computer. This was discovered when I recently upgraded my phone & tried to copy my Barchart entries from old phone to new phone. I will attempt other options.
