Ratings and reviews

Very annoying that they do not inform you that an app update is available. Rather than provide a notification on the homepage, you have to dig thru forums or app store to determine if you have the most current version. I disable "auto update" to prevent google messing with all my apps, but would certainly expect prompt notification when it comes to finance.

Easy registration. Simple to use UI. Fee is a bit high. Also I wish they would be more honest about the fees. Edit: they keep changing the rules of the shake feature it's named after. I understand they have to make changes sometimes, but the lack of notification is disrespect.

Latest version seems to have stalled the shake aern, it's not as responsive as it used to be. Tried clearing cache, no difference. I'm using Android 12, Samsung note 10. Is there a way to shake earn bt without having been referred?
