### 3/5 — Works for bitcoin, but that’s it

*2014-07-14*

This is a slick app and I would love to see it support even more coins, but right now the auto update of wallets only works for bitcoin, and not any of the other currencies ( at least not PPC or FTR).

### 4/5 — Clean and simple

*2014-01-20*

Either the iOS version is still limited to the Mt Gox price only, or the option to change this isn't apparent. Also, needs to have the total coins per currency listed somewhere.

### 5/5 — Finally, something to track my coins!

*2014-01-13*

I've been looking for something like this for ages. Very happy with this.

I hope they add lots more coins!
