## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — just dumb

*2023-07-14*

no qa
no quality
nothing but support tickets/emails

that what i wanna base a company on as a biz service?  lol. nay.

### 1/5 — Horribly designed app

*2022-12-18, version 3.0*

Even though they support crypto, good luck finding ETH or ETHUSD in the app. No simple buy/sell/cancel. To cancel you have to go to the emergency tab to stop an order. Now I can’t replace it. This is worse than Robinhood! Also their fundamanetal reason for being, accurate data, is questionable. The bar data often is different to polygon, tradingview etc. Reached out to them but support refuses to answer or if I am wrong explain how to get correct data!

### 1/5 — Glitchy, inconsistent, poor customer service

*2022-03-31, version 3.0*

App looks like it was made by an unpaid intern. The balance details pertaining to margin maintenance are inconsistent/glitchy. For example I was liquidated from a position despite having substantial “excess margin” cushion. Customer service is slow to respond. There are better brokers out there.

### 1/5 — Charges margin fees!!!!! Lots of them!

*2020-03-16, version 3.0*

This company is terrible. It has a super complicated maintenance margin fee. With an account of $2000 I was charged $340! It’s absurd. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Use anything else.  This should be illegal!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-11-15, version 2.2*

I have put in my keys but it doesn’t show my equity or any positions. It’s all just blank.

### 2/5 — Abandonware, not maintained, no bug fixes

*2024-04-25*

Hi can you change the position numbers to display the "Total PL" field not "Todays PL"? It's not obvious what you're doing and it's not useful at all if there are multiple trades per day or trades spanning more than one day. Basically it's just not a useful number. All you need to do is display the "unrealized_pl" field in the Alpaca API you're already using.

Update from 2024: it's probably safe to say this app is dead and not being maintained.

### 2/5 — Todays PL is a useless number in position list

### 2/5 — Unhappy with product

*2021-04-07, version 3.0*

Repeatedly been hung out to die from orders not canceling. Lack of ability to input a stop loss paired with a partial take profit is an inconvenience

### 2/5 — Messed up UI

*2020-04-25, version 3.0*

Please fix the UI. You’ll have to make it responsive for all the devices. Right now the buttons are not in the right place and it’s hard to reach them. Add a scrollbar maybe

### 3/5 — Needs a better UI + bugs

*2022-05-18, version 3.0*

Implement a better mobile UI for making orders. There are also lots of bugs where data is either not available or wrong. Once it showed I was down 100% when I clearly wasn’t. You guys got to fix that.

### 5/5 — Nice basic app

*2021-08-07, version 3.0*

Works great for tracking my bot trades done thru alpaca api
