Updated Review: (3 to 4) While the lag issues have improved a bit with logging in, there are still a few items that could see improvement. One is the issue of their selling of shares at a price that's basically unknown until they're sold. You cannot really sell at a price that you set yourself (no limit orders). I did receive the promotions as advertised. And I like that the app offers both stocks and crypto, but the crypto fees are just too much to frequently trade crypto. Overall, a good app.

Installed app. After 2 attempts of entering personal info (addr, ssn, etc), uploading pic of license & a selfie, I received error message in the app. I emailed their support team and the reply, "Unfortunately, we are not able to open an account for you on our platform. Your identity is unable to be authenticated at this time with the profile information you provided. This could be due to insufficient correlation with the name, address, social security number, and/or phone number.".

the ads I seen of this app say that the app is to help understand investing, and that no real money is used whatsoever, if thats the case why would you need a SSN? it also says its E for everyone but if an underage person wants to try this app, such as me, they cant, as they might not have access to their SSN.
