They’ve made the entire process fairly straightforward and smooth. There are a couple minor improvements that could be made. 1. Support Google Auth in the app just like is supported in the web version. 2. On your portfolio it would be nice to also be able to see not only the amount you invested in total but what the total in current valuation is (a projection based on the latest cap table entry). 3. Make it easier to invest with an IRA account (this is a harder one I’m sure). Other than that I’ve got no complaints. It’s a great way to get positions in pre-IPO companies. ### 2/5 — Cool concept, hardly works *2021-03-16, version 1.2* Applied to invest in a company and received an allocation. Unfortunately shares for sale were l repurchased by the company itself a month later and I never got the opportunity to buy. Conceptually this is a very good service, but you should expect that your deal will never close if you’re actually getting a good deal... ### 1/5 — Endless password reset loops back to their website. *2021-01-21, version 1.2* Incredibly annoying when the most basic of functions doesn’t work. Fix it! ### 1/5 — Usability and accessibility disaster *2020-12-31, version 1.2* It is clear that the developer did not spend five minutes considering navigation or user experience. The app is completely unusable for visually impaired users who use the iOS built inscreen reader voiceover. Buttons are not labeled correctly, the app is sluggish and unusable on the latest iPhone and most of the controls cannot be interacted with. Will take my money and invest somewhere else. ### 1/5 — Do not invest *2020-11-06, version 1.2* There are some serious issues with this marketplace. Zero customer support. ### 4/5 — Dark mode Please 🙏 *2020-10-22, version 1.2* The app works fine. The notification are limited but would like to know about new offerings Also would be nice to have faceid ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Full of bugs and substandard *2025-02-11, version 1.3.3* What’s the point of asking share price when gauging interest. We have absolutely no knowledge of the company valuation and the outstanding shares. It’s comical to ask that. ### 1/5 — Can't login with SSO in app *2024-11-17, version 1.3.3* The website allows you to sign up using Google SSO but the app doesn't. It's a huge oversight which makes this app completely useless for me. ### 1/5 — Can’t get past first screen *2024-10-16, version 1.3.3* I love EquityZen and want to use the app but can’t log in. I signed up with Google and the app only supports username/password. ### 1/5 — How do I login with google account? *2024-02-19, version 1.3.1* I login with with google account on the website. I don’t see that option on the app. Isn’t that a basic feature? ### 1/5 — New version is terrible *2023-09-10, version 1.3.0* Can’t scroll open listings. Bugs out on what you’re trying to click on. Every time I even try to give the frown face feedback on new layout it says “oops! We’ve encountered an issue” lol. Fitting. Need to be on desktop to do anything meaningful. How do you let something like this go live? ### 1/5 — No SSO *2023-08-21* You can only log in with username/password. I signed up for Equityzen with Google SSO so guess I cant use the app. Update 8/21: Even after they remade the app and put all that work into a UI refresh, still no SSO. Come on, this is basic app development. ### 1/5 — No SSO *2023-05-02* You can only log in with username/password. I signed up for Equityzen with Google SSO so guess I cant use the app. ### 1/5 — No Face ID support *2022-02-18, version 1.2* App is never updated. Have to log in every single time. Add Face ID please ### 1/5 — Have to log in every time I use the app *2021-12-22, version 1.2* Every time I use the app I need to re enter my login credentials ### 1/5 — Terrible App *2021-03-17, version 1.2* Not sure why the ratings are so high on for this app. Either the other reviews are fake or the people are blind. Offerings are extremely scarce and you rarely have a chance to actually get in on them. Almost every time I open the app I have to log in again. There are many other platforms that offer superior opportunities to investing in private companies. App is terrible and business model is dreadful. When you buy into an offering, you don’t even get shares. Because of this, it is extremely difficult to get your money back unless the company goes public. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Overall a great platform for fairly priced private equity at small buy in amounts. *2024-09-08, version 1.3.3* Customer service is limited and i hope has improvement in the future but from my personal experience with secondary market platforms and brokers the pricing for the deals are very good for small investments and the 5 percent fee is low in comparison. Docs are easy to access and it’s easy to check in to see the progress of the transaction. I’ve been using this service in conjunction with other platforms/brokers for about 2 years. ### 5/5 — FIVE STARS *2020-09-21, version 1.2* FIVE STAR APP ### 5/5 — Very high quality *2020-09-20, version 1.2* I’m blown away by the UI on this app. Well done EquityZen team. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Great app and great experience with Equityzen *2020-09-20, version 1.2* The app works great and I find it very easy to use. The company has been great to work with over my last year investing with them. They are very helpful, and when it was initially just interested they weren’t pushy at all and allowed me to take my time to do my own due diligence without them constantly calling me or bugging me. Now that I’ve invested several times, I’ve had the opportunity and need to call or email from time to time and they’ve been very helpful, courteous and responded quickly. Really happy with my experience overall with Equityzen and this app adds to that great experience. ### 5/5 — Better than the EZ web site *2020-09-18, version 1.2* The new EZ app is as functional or better than their .com site. An extremely handy way of exploring the pre-IPO space, with full and informative descriptions of many startups. And EZ offers investors pre-IPO shares for a select but growing number of the startups in their database. That’s real shares, not warrants or notes. ### 5/5 — Quality Expierence *2020-09-17, version 1.2* My experience with investing through EquityZen has been great! They are very transparent and when I had questions they were quick to get back to me. They really provide a high quality experience. ### 5/5 — Great app!!! *2020-09-17, version 1.2* Very easy to use and see the same information as the website. They did a great job putting the app together and find myself using it more often than the website. ### 5/5 — Great Opportunity for Private Placement Investing *2020-09-17, version 1.2* Plenty of great companies to choose from and the process is easy. ### 5/5 — Simple and Efficient *2020-09-17, version 1.2* Glad this out. I’ve been asking for an EZ app for years! It’s all the good stuff you expect from their platform in an app at your fingertips. Well done. ### 5/5 — Straight Buttah *2020-09-17, version 1.2* This app is awesome. Very intuitive and user friendly interface that will make managing my investments easier. Congrats to the team at EquityZen for putting out another quality product. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
