What does it do?
This app brings you up-to-date, daily commentary and analysis on stocks and shares.
What’s good about it?
The analysis is up to the minute and you can use the app to keep tabs on market trends, check out popular shares, look up company information and financials, keep track of commodity prices and global financial indices. The app includes free access to full-articles and analysis from the Investor’s Chronicle website, and the Chronic Investor Blog. The app is free and enables you to create your own personalised watchlist of companies ,so you can take this app and make it your own very quickly. You can also tap into and follow what other investors are viewing, which is pretty shrewd.
What’s bad about it?
The teething problems associated with the log-in process have been widely reported among iPhone users, particularly those with older iPhone models.
Verdict:
This app brings a wealth of financial information delivered by reliable sources and experts in the field. Usability problems have damaged its reputation slightly, but these issues seem to have been ironed out since the release of Version 1.1, which addresses the log-in bug reported among iPhone users.
Score: 8/10
