Obnoxious level of ads. *2026-08-04, version 7.23* Clicking “no thanks” to their offers means nothing as the pop ups keep coming up every time you click on something. ### 2/5 — Not Very Good *2026-07-31, version 7.23* My stock list is always being deleted and I have to re- enter the information ### 3/5 — Need Full Screen View *2026-07-28, version 7.23* The content on the IBD app is great! However, on an iPad Air, the app opens as a tall, skinny app — about the shape of an iPhone. But why not display more on the full size iPad screen? There is so much screen real estate that IBD is not taking advantage of. It would be much better if I saw more info on a single screen. ### 2/5 — Stocks traded up. *2026-07-25, version 7.23* What’s the benefit of knowing what stock went up the previous day it should be ahead of the opening not after the close.!!!! ### 3/5 — Push notifications faulty *2026-07-16, version 7.23* Good app but the push notifications that come in never end up opening the actual article that they are alluding to. Instead it just opens the app itself and then you have to search for the article, often times unsuccessfully. Pretty annoying honestly. ### 4/5 — Fix the link from alert to app *2026-07-13, version 7.23* Great context, but clicking my alerts does not bring up the article - only takes me to the app home page. Used to be able to view the article to which I was alerted. ### 2/5 — Broken *2026-07-10, version 7.23* Notifications don't open to the article. Autoplay video interrupts your Audio on every open. ### 4/5 — App not navigating to alerts *2026-07-04, version 7.22* I get pop up alerts on articles that I want to read but then cannot find them. ### 2/5 — Seriously? *2026-07-01, version 7.22* …..they send out a email to end-users to update the app immediately for some alleged data improvement …. …and they still can’t display dividend info. I don’t see any improvement in anything. And, to use the App one must be a Digital subscriber, yet every dam time one examines a stock that is currently moving in the market, an advertisement pops up telling the digital subscription user about a digital subscription user discount - every dam time. I’ve been canceling IBD services and am very close to canceling this too. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Opinion *2026-08-31, version 7.26* Too often pop up ads. 9:48 no info on market on main page ### 1/5 — Broken buggy mess *2026-08-27, version 7.25.1* Things don’t load, the app forgets I’m a subscriber and will spam me with ads to buy what I already own. It barely ever works on open, the UI on the stock will bug out and get stock on “loading valid data” then never does and you have to switch to the daily or weekly then back to get it to maybe load. I will open the app and try to check my lists then it will suddenly say that I’m not signed in and I have no lists, then I sign out and sign back in and the error persists until it randomly will work again. Sometimes the chart will bug out and not show the current day’s candle Almost always will the percentages for the day be incorrect on my lists, it won’t load and it will even mix up all of them and show one stock being up what another stock in the list is actually up, refreshing will just shuffle them around When typing a stock ticker in to add to a list, if you type the full ticker it will not appear, so, for example, I wanted to add BE, I saw BE flash for a second when I typed B, but for BE it gave me everything but BE, I had to type just B then select it, this has happened maybe 100+ times I just don’t know why I’m even paying for this anymore. The desktop version is the only one that works. Do not use this app, it’s just a broken useless mess ### 1/5 — Worst app i have ever seen *2026-08-26, version 7.25.1* I don’t think i have ever seen an app this bad. It crashes continuously and sometimes doesn’t allow me to sign in. 2 of the links in the “lists” never opened since i started. Terrible ### 1/5 — Never ending advertising *2026-08-20, version 7.25.1* Even with a PAID SUBSCRIPTION they never stop trying to sell you more of their publications. Their customer service people are the worst I have ever dealt with. ### 1/5 — IBD App is CrApp *2026-08-19, version 7.25.1* Simple: Overloaded with Ads and provides little value. Longtime subscriber; like most businesses, went way downhill since the founder passed and sold to the Dow. Time late for most investors and investment analysis is pablum. Can’t access the digital paper, which I’m paying for and constantly begging for users to subscribe to some other worthless service. ### 1/5 — Love IBD But this app… *2026-08-10, version 7.23* This app blows. It is slow. It is hard to navigate. ### 1/5 — Still Broken *2026-07-25, version 7.23* This app is still completely broken. Notifications never open the linked article. The app also cuts your audio. Completely unusable app. ### 1/5 — Good information but too many ads! *2026-07-11, version 7.23* I’m subscribed but riddled with constant advertisements to subscribe. ### 1/5 — Annoying *2026-07-10, version 7.23* Multiple pop ups while in the APP are very annoying. I paid for access to the information to not be bombarded with silly advertisements. Also, the visible screen in the app is small and no where near the size of my Ipad screen. Hitting the expand arrows only increases the visible size slightly. I was a subscriber around 25 years ago when the digital version of IBD was in it’s infancy. Back then, the digital version was annoying and so was the nutty right-wing bias on many of their articles and editorials. Those issues made me drop subscription back then. 25 years later, the nutso right-wing bias is gone (thankfully)but the digital subscription issues are present but in a different way. ### 1/5 — Inefficient and cumbersome *2026-06-22, version 7.22* Open a message link and you may end up somewhere else. Annoying ads just keep popping up while you’re reading an article. IM A PAID SUBSCRIBER!!! Open a text message and go back to the app and your on another article from 3 days ago. This is the most poorly functional app. UHG! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ibd. A great source of data *2026-08-26, version 7.25.1* No other publication that I know of gives the customer so much data In an easy to read and understand fashion to help the customer make intelligent stock purchases and sales. ### 5/5 — SSA *2026-08-25, version 7.25.1* Thanks ### 5/5 — IBD gives the best current info *2026-08-19, version 7.25.1* As a retires person I need to support my SS and IBD allows me the resources needed to make quality decisions. ### 5/5 — Best Teaching App *2026-08-17, version 7.23* An overall good source for current market news and trends from easy to understand commentators. Offers a variety of free classes with basic to advanced trading topics. Daily news broadcast. ### 5/5 — I Depend Upon IBD To Keep Me Informed !! *2026-08-07, version 7.23* IBD Does A Damn Fine Job Of It !! ### 5/5 — Good *2026-07-18, version 7.23* Help to select the best stock. ### 5/5 — IBD sub groups *2026-07-10, version 7.23* July 4, 2026 I am still using MSFT Hopefully msft will move higher in winter Aug 16, 2023 I signed up again. I am now retired & did not think I needed IBD. BIDEN is wreaking the economy on 2023 with his inflation increasing policies. Everything costs more now a days. Fuel up to $3.48 in ALABAMA. Trump had it around $2.15. His policies worked. July 11,2018 Still love this app. I am using stock of the day and NH list. (This IBD APP IS EXTREMELY valuable if you get investor business daily newspaper from Los Angelo’s. You can sign up for the electronic addition which is delivered daily in morning. I enjoy this app. May 3, 2018 The more I use it the better I like it. I have created 5 watch lists for different time horizons. Short term Stocks to long term Stocks. ### 5/5 — Go IBD! *2026-07-09, version 7.22* Great! ### 5/5 — Investing *2026-07-06, version 7.22* Excellent advice ### 5/5 — IBD gives the best current info *2026-06-30, version 7.22* As a retires person I need to support my SS and IBD allows me the resources needed to make quality decisions. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
