### 2/5 — Fee

*2026-07-30, version 1.7.7*

Don’t like that out of nowhere after being a member for a year I am blocked from acct until I pay for a membership

### 4/5 — So-So thoughts with the new upgrade

*2026-07-20, version 1.7.7*

I throughly enjoy my Grifin app, I like the speed in which deposits and purchases are made. Just wish dividends were reinvested instead of going into cash accounts

### 3/5 — Update

*2026-07-17, version 1.7.7*

Ever since the update I can’t see certain transactions. Especially my dividends.

### 2/5 — Glitches

*2026-06-29, version 1.7.7*

This app worked really well until the current update and changeover to the new broker. Now I am getting error messages or getting signed out and I am unable to sign back in again. I don’t know what is going on, but it needs to be fixed.

### 4/5 — Where is my money

*2026-06-26, version 1.7.7*

I can’t login and I can’t t access my account. No one from support will return emails. No phone support. Hope Im not out $400, but losing hope.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2026-06-26, version 1.7.7*

They take money but when you try and try to log in you can’t even with resetting the password change. I have confirmed the correct password and still nothing.

### 1/5 — DO NOT OPEN STOCK PORTFOLIO WITH THIS APP

*2026-06-23, version 1.7.7*

If I could rate this app 0 stars I would. App itself has so many bugs, I’m writing this while waiting for the app to stop crashing as I’m trying to sell my stocks and close my account after the company made the greedy choice of adding a subscription requirement for their ‘services’. They don’t even have a website, much less a good quality app that doesn’t fail to load after every click. I CANT EVEN LOGIN WITHOUT IT CRASHING, SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY AND DO NOT DOWNLOAD

### 3/5 — UI issues

*2026-06-14, version 1.7.7*

Kybd pop-up cover the input fields

### 3/5 — Pretty Simple

*2026-06-09, version 1.7.7*

It’s not a bad app, but it’s not going to be a platform where I regularly invest money. I don’t prefer it because I don’t want to invest in every company I spend money, and it only allows me to invest in stock where I’ve shopped. It was a good idea at first, but I’d rather have full control over whom I’m able to invest in.

### 5/5 — New Grifin User

*2026-06-09, version 1.7.7*

I am new and the app is user friendly.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — They don’t pay you!

*2026-08-18, version 1.7.7*

Be careful downloading this app. Everything works great until you request to withdraw your money.

I tried contact support about a payment that’s been pending for about a month now. But their support has not gotten back to me 

They still have my money and don’t want to pay!

### 1/5 — They won’t give me my funds

*2026-08-04, version 1.7.7*

I have emailed the support team multiple times over multiple days I have over $1000 in my account that it will not let me withdraw out of there would not recommend at all what so ever they will not respond to me and the only way to contact them is email griffin needs a way better way at getting support or help when you need it they say their team is available any time but ive been emailing them for days on end with zero response would not recommend to my worst enemy

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-07-23, version 1.7.7*

I would get the zero stars if I could. The premise of this app is really cool. However, the app randomly took my bank off and now I cannot add it back in. I’ve reached out to customer service on multiple occasions with zero reply. The app cost $60 a year as well. So now I’ve wasted $60 and all the money I’ve invested that I cannot get out.

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2026-07-14, version 1.7.7*

Not happy

### 1/5 — Unresponsive

*2026-07-07, version 1.7.7*

I am trying to withdraw money but my phone number has changed. No one has replied to my simple question on changing my phone number all day and my money is stuck until someone replies hopefully!

### 1/5 — Cancel

*2026-07-03, version 1.7.7*

I can’t get my subscription cancelled

### 1/5 — Unfair

*2026-07-01, version 1.7.7*

I want to cancel but don’t know how ! I didn’t want this last year & you people had the nerve to sign me up again & charge me for something I don’t want. Why can’t you let me out of your sight & stop charging me!

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-06-27, version 1.7.7*

I can’t even get into my account and I’ve had it for a long time. No where can I find how to log in. Or find my forgotten password. Useless for any customer service help.

### 1/5 — Unable to communicate with company

*2026-06-26, version 1.7.7*

I’m trying to cancel account. I rarely used the app and deleted it. They still withdrew funds and there is no way to get refund. There’s no way to communicate with them. Seems to likely be a scam.

### 1/5 — I have been charge without my consent

*2026-06-26, version 1.7.7*

They charge me for a subscription that I never finalized, as soon as they started with you have to pay to continue or that I was going to have a monthly payment, I stop the process and even deleted the app. Don’t recommend this app!!!

### 5/5 — So easy to use!

*2026-06-11, version 1.7.7*

I was hesitant about using Grifin initially, but now I can say that it is one of the best ways to invest in companies you support and trust. It is very user friendly and it makes investing beyond simplified. I highly recommend you get this app to help you invest.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-06-11, version 1.7.7*

I was amazed at how quickly my balance increased. The app is easy to navigate. This is just a little extra to have if needed.

### 5/5 — Review

*2026-06-09, version 1.7.7*

Super easy to use

### 5/5 — Grifin

*2026-06-09, version 1.7.7*

This system works on its own. All you have to do is keep up with when to sell. Works great.
