### 1/5 — Please add back continued resumption clock

*2026-07-21*

Make the halt clock continue to tick after the 1st halt , 2nd etc… like the older version.  Add that back and 5stars. That would be super helpful. After the 1st halt it now becomes a guessing game. I pay for time tracking on every halt . Please fix! Thanks you

### 4/5 — Good but could be better

*2026-02-18*

This app is great at alerting to halts, but needs more filtering functionality. I love trading small cap stocks but I can only filter in one direction with float and price. And on top of that I can’t sort float ascending

### 4/5 — Does exactly what’s it’s made to do. However, one thing…

*2025-07-01*

Great app. Works perfectly right out of the “box”. Super quick notifications in real time as halts are happening.

Why 4 out of 5 stars: 

My only wish is that there was a clear bold green arrow pointing up within the notification/UI showing when it’s a up-halt or a red one pointing down indicating a down-halt. 

I found myself checking many halted stock tickers today with a good handful that were halted down. Had I known via an indicator beforehand, I would not have checked out those tickers. 

If a green arrow/ red arrow was implemented, this would also allow the filter option be able to include only show up-halts and only show down-halts. 

Otherwise GREAT app, and I will update and hit the 5 star rating hopefully when an update like this rolls out. =)

### 5/5 — Best Scanner for halts

*2026-07-06*

Super reliable and convenient for tracking halted stocks.

### 5/5 — Nice and simple

*2026-05-12*

Appreciate the less is more with the simplicity of design

I would just ask for more filters (maximums, daily percentage)

### 5/5 — Alert request

*2025-05-15*

Can we have alert  instead of just halted it can say like AAPL halted

### 5/5 — Simple, effective, and no subscription!

*2025-04-01*

Really happy with this app. Helps me monitor my tracked halted stocks and provides notifications right before trading resumes. Does exactly what it’s advertised to do and I don’t have to pay a monthly subscription!

### 5/5 — Perfect Entry

*2025-03-31*

Love how fast this app updates. The resume alerts are incredible
— makes it
way easier to time my entries.

### 5/5 — No More Monthly Subscription!!!

*2025-03-28*

Finally a clean halt scanner that actually shows the resume time. Super helpful during morning volatility.

### 5/5 — Trading Halts Simplified

*2025-03-28*

This halt scanner is super clean and fast. The notification feature is clutch

### 5/5 — Finally someone built it!

*2025-03-28*

I love this app. I’ve been looking for something that is simple, but accomplishes exactly what I’m look for; to be notified when the stocks I am trading have volatility... immediately.
