  • Partially featured

    1. Full screen view of saved graphs often glitches and does not show full screen

    2. Can only save and share as a low quality JPEG. Cannot export in multiple formats (PDF, Excel, ...)

    3. Cannot view saved dashboards

    5. Cannot use graphing editor tool
  • Poor search functionality

    Using the search bar to look up data series is essentially non functional rendering the entire user experience moot
  • Can't save location or toggle notifications

    I've tried uninstalling and re-adding on my iphone, ipad, and macbook, and location and notifications are still not working. Good info and content but it doesn't help me if I can't use the bulk of the features. I see an update hasn't been released in over 6 months so wondering if a big one is coming soon?

  • Crashes, flips aspects randomly

    This is a very poor app. It is difficult to find data (among waves of lists), the app has crashed every time (seriously 100% of the time) that I’ve tried to use it, and it flips between landscape and portrait mode on its own and seemingly without reason. I deleted it after a few attempts. No point playing with this app. It’s the worst app I’ve ever encountered.

  • The search bar doesn’t work

    The search bar doesn’t narrow down the list of things you’re looking for. When I want to look for “home price,” it’ll read the “h” and start listing suggestions starting with h, but it doesn’t do anything with the rest of the search term. I just need the series names to call data into MATLAB, but the website is 10x better. Y’all need to fire whoever is developing the app and hire someone serious.

  • Excellent App

    Brilliant vest of technology
  • Search is a disaster

    Doesn’t update doesn’t work
  • Sloppy outdated user interface with poor usability

    Text is too small and inconsistently sized, chart captions are impossible to read on the home screen, and there’s a lot of wasted screen space in my iPhone 13 Pro with the bottom third of the screen being completely empty. I feel unhappy, overwhelmed, and lost trying to get information out of this app. It feels like it was designed on a computer then shrunk down to a mobile phone screen. The user interface is out of date and does not adapt to larger screens. It’s time to completely rethink your strategy for this app.

  • App is buggy again

    5.2 is buggy with the search.
  • Buggy search

    The search function is quite buggy; it only works sometimes and other times is completely unresponsive to my input.
