FRUSTRATING!!
I’m seriously thinking that the people that wrote the 5-star reviews work for Schwab. I opened an account alongside my Ameritrade account as the E-Minis are 20-50% amount if you day trade and are out by the end of the day. I’ll typically make 10+ trades a day (effortlessly with my other app) but Schwab would allow me to do 2 contracts for every 1. Unfortunately when there are so many errors and misquotes, it’s not worth it. I’ll keep my money in there for now but I’ll hold off on using the app until it’s come into this century!!!

Unusable at market open
Overall, it’s a solid app that is easy to use but it frequently is unusable at market open. Nothing but error messages, connection problems and spinning wheels. A good platform on the desktop but infuriating when attempting to trade the market open - which basically makes the whole app unusable because it’s not available for the heaviest trade part of the day. Completely unacceptable in 2019.Show lessDreamspace2
Needs a lot of work
Charts are very bad. You can’t see the daily range of the day I.e open high low close from the charts, and some of the charts especially the currency futures charts are totally inaccurate. My suggestion is to look at td ameritrade and model your app after them.John's me
Just waiting on Charles to upgrade :/
Charles schwab company should hire more developers to get this app running to top efficiency. To the guys that are working on the app and it’s problem keep going I’m not talking junk about you . What I don’t like is how I can’t even access this for my mobile and just reading these reviews I am kinda glad I can’t do I won’t get the wrong data or delayed data . Please fix I kinda like this corporation!Show lessbtp22
Has a long way to go
I recently migrated from Interactive Brokers to Schwab because I changed firms and I sorely miss IB’s mobile app. As an avid options trader, Schwab’s app is missing almost all the functionality a trader of spreads needs in the app. There’s no way to add spreads to watch lists, I can’t customize the watch lists, symbol
Search is pitiful, commissions are easily 3-4x higher, and not to mention Schwab needs to update their margining system. My margin requirement tripled when I moved over. Anyone who wants to be an options trader should choose interactive brokers if they have that option.Show lessCaliSavior
Best place to trade futures options
This is the best place to trade futures options in real time. Hands down the best at what it does. In terms of prettiness, it could be better. The all in one trading ticket is hands down the best in the industry for futures options.nickname74626277
Not available for Schwab customers
I rarely rate apps on anything but functionality, but I’m making an exception because of the branding. Why would they give this the same name as StreetSmart Edge and then not let customers who have access to that use this? Change the name or let us use it. Very frustrating.murraycs
Awful ! Crush frequently and display prices randomly
It’s definitely gone from Ok to unusable since optionxpress transfer. App loads slow, crush frequently and display prices randomly! How is this acceptable for a financial application with it’s size is beyond me. Just the last 2-3 days, I have submitted at least 5 app crush reports.SantoriniCat
Bad data feeds and always crashing
I’ve been using the app to trade futures and futures options. The data feed seems buggy as its giving incorrect prices for p&l purposes which could scare someone into thinking they’ve lost on certain futures positions. Needs massive improvement not just on the accuracy of their quotes but the stability of the app is just unreliable. I’ve had this app crash multiple times and to makes matters worse, it tends to hang up when trying to pull simple quotes.
I hope Schwab fixes these bugs. The integration with optionxpress is now complete and the question comes whether or not they want to continue supporting the futures segment of their business.Show lessrdp916
Doesn’t add up!
Have been monitoring my positions...options prices are streamed nicely but spreads don’t total correctly and/or refresh.
I really like the positions display because it groups all strategy options together as such but needs to title that grouping with the underlying stock. Also wish desktop version had this display format.
Still not totaling options correctly. Guess it’s not important to them. Will be using the app for gross figures but not a valid trading platform.Show lessExcessive_Thinker
