Ratings and reviews

Interface is very ugly as compared to other apps.... Whole design needs upgrade also rates don't update as fast as other apps huge app over hauling required.... Not expected this kind of cheap performance from an international investment app

A bit counterintuitive interface. I trade options and can see that desktop and Web alternatives makes trading scenarios more straightforward. Another surprise is that this app requires email for alerts (OK to have it as a feature) but CANNOT push alerts to Android notifications! Mobile app, seriously?? Otherwise, it's good to have it, particularly fingerprint authentication (authorising desktops too!) is cool modern way to login.

Pretty good app. I love the fact that I can find virtually every stock on any market in the world. I find it a bit difficult to use because the portfolio page shows daily losses and gains but doesn't show total gains and losses since the position was opened. I have to click on the actual holding to find that number.
