### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-04-30*

I saw a friend playing and thought that it looked like a pretty fun game. Asked my parents for months get the game just to se that I can’t login. I didn’t immediately give up though, I reset the game logged in at least 5 times even deleted the app and redownloaded it and nothing worked. But I still decided to keep it downloaded in case it starts working and then I realize that I can just ask my friend how he logged in…  

My friend tells me that the game doesn’t work any more and shows me. He logs on and we see the normal loading screen for .02 seconds I immediately go on the App Store and get a different investing game

**Developer response:** For help accessing your Invstr+ account, or if you have any questions, please contact us at supportplus@invstr.com or +18334468787. For fantasy Finance questions, please email info@invstr.com

### 5/5 — Love the contests!

*2024-01-19*

I love this app because it allows me to simulate my options trades onto the fantasy finance game & then if I am able to get a high % return I am ranked and awarded for being in the top 10 within 3 leaderboards. 

It also has modules to teach you to trade if that is something you need and best of all they give you $1,000,000 initially so that you can make huge trades within the assets you are interested in.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the marvelous review Dybz!!!
It definitely is great being able to learn, practice, interact...while also having the opportunity to compete with other users and possibly win prizes.
We hope you will share our app with your friends and family so they can join the fun learning experience with you. Keep learning to invest smarter Dybz!

### 5/5 — Outstanding customer service

*2023-12-05*

I have been using Invstr for about 2 years and have to say that the customer service received when there has been an issue has been awesome 
James is the person who has reached out to me when there has been an issue is thorough and delivers on what he says he is going to do
It would be great if there were no issues but where in the world do you find a product or service that does not have the occasional glitch
Thankfully Invstr has James who has resolved the issues I have run across
Thanks for all that you have done James!!!!

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you so much for the 5 stars and fabulous review! Feedback like this is so motivating for the whole team! We are so pleased to know that you are appreciating our app & customer service and we hope you will share it with all your friends and family members.
Please let us know at info@invstr.com if you ever have any questions, more feedback or suggestions. Thanks again for taking the time to review our app. Keep learning to invest smarter!!!

### 5/5 — Customer service made simple

*2023-07-27*

I rarely leave reviews for anything and I was really confused about how to start investing for myself and for my child’s future. I’ve had the pleasure to work with James Mitchell and he explained everything and anything I had questions about. If anyone has questions or needs any assistance, I highly suggest reaching out to James. By far the best experience I’ve had and the easiest person to communicate with. Thanks James!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 5-star rating and wonderful review! This will definitely be shared with James and the rest of the team. Feedback is always appreciated as we are all working so hard to make Invstr the best app to learn about investing. We really hope you will tell your friends and family about our app and get them to join the fun learning experience with you. Kindest regards and keep learning to invest smarter!

### 5/5 — Loving it!

*2023-07-04*

Great app for beginners like myself. That being said, there have been some parts that I need a little more assistance. I was lucky to receive help from James Mitchell and he was simply amazing. The information provided is pretty simple but for someone like me who is fairly new to the investing world some areas need to broken down and James did just that. He definitely is knowledgeable not only about the app but finances, banking, and investing in general. Yes there are different aspects that could be better, but no app is perfect and honestly this has been the best I’ve found thus far. It’s just a major plus to have an app with employees, such as James, who clearly love what they do and are happy to help others - very rare these days. Happy investing everyone! Check it out!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 5-star rating and wonderful review! James and the rest of the team absolutely loved it! Feedback is always appreciated by everyone working so hard to make Invstr the best app to learn about investing...For anyone and everyone! For any questions or more detailed feedback & suggestions, please contact us directly at info@invstr.com (for anything concerning Fantasy Finance) or at supportplus@invstr.com (for Invstr+ and Jr). We really hope you will tell your friends and family about our app and get them to join the fun learning experience with you. Keep learning to invest smarter!

### 2/5 — Premium ruined the app for me.

*2023-05-26*

This morning I went to check my stocks as usual. I went to see the details of the company, particularly the news of the day regarding Microsoft, P&G, etcetera. 

However, I was met with a paywall. I had no access to any of the information I used before to trade my stocks and frankly, it made the app a turn off for me. I sold everything I had and will be withdrawing my money. The learning aspects of this app are wonderful, but after teaching us to think, use the information given to us and to pay attention to the market, they took away the tools in their app that we used while they already get to invest our money elsewhere as well. 

Also had a long term issue with being able to withdraw from the account; took three weeks to get any money out of there. 

Those two things sullied my otherwise un-bothered experience.

**Developer response:** Dear customer. We are glad to know you enjoyed the learning aspects of the app. We have made all Invstr Academy modules free so everyone can learn to invest, as well as our portfolio builder. You can play, learn, interact and practice on Fantasy Finance and still see the basic graphs of any instrument you have on your watchlist.  To enhance your experience and have access to more technical information about the instruments you need a subscription. Our subscriptions are varied and affordable for those who want to take things further (for just $3.99 a month or 13 cents a day). Please write to us at info@invstr.com if you have suggestions to make the app even better for everyone.
Regarding the delay to withdraw the money from your account, we apologize for this. Please write to us at supportplus@invstr.com with more details so we can investigate why it took longer than usual. We value all of our customers and your feedback is appreciated.

### 1/5 — Terrible platform

*2023-03-08*

This app doesn’t let you send and recieve BtC or crypto. You have a wallet but it only will store the currency. If you recieve a reward; invstr+ will not give you what you earned from them for at least 10 days. Once recieved; the newly acquired reward can’t be removed or withdrawn for 30 days. Not to mention this platform will permit instant deposits; however, if you use the instant the deposit- the investment will be pending for at least 10 days. For example, they recieve the actual transfer and then don’t reward you until it “settles” 5 days later. What’s with you old timers and stock market trade rules..? Don’t y’all understand that life is 24/7 and finance needs to be also- that’s why crypto is going to take over the stock market. Eventually companies that offer “stocks” will develope a coin and get on with their lives keeping the government out of their financial pictures…. Duh

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We understand your frustration with the limitations on sending and receiving crypto, as well as the delays in receiving rewards and withdrawing newly acquired rewards. Your Crypto is custodied by our banking partner, therefore you cannot send this as we're not a digital wallet. We also appreciate your passion for the 24/7 nature of finance and the potential of crypto to revolutionize the financial industry.
We want to assure you that transparency is a core value of our platform, and we strive to be upfront with our users about the features and limitations of our app. We understand that our current policies may not meet the needs of all users, and we are constantly evaluating and improving our platform to better serve our community.
We would be happy to address any specific concerns or questions you may have about our app, and we welcome any suggestions or feedback on how we can improve our service. You can contact us directly at info@invstr.com (for anything related to Fantasy Finance) or supportplus@invstr.com (for anything about Invstr+).  Thank you for choosing our platform, and we hope to continue to earn your trust and support.

### 5/5 — Made my day!

*2023-02-03, version 7.2.2*

I reached out to customer support to figure out how to get back in and Abby was really helpful and super fast in her response time. She has amazing customer service and was super friendly!

### 5/5 — Jr Investing

*2023-01-31, version 7.2.2*

Cool investment app for teaching kids the value of chores and saving money long term.  I enjoy the easy stock buying options, the tons of information the company provides for novice investors like me. A solid feature is the investment data that ranks your stocks and risk level! I would recommend getting and investing with INVSTR.

### 5/5 — Great app for beginners

*2023-01-30, version 7.2.2*

This is a great app if you’re new to investing or don’t know anything about it. I’ve learned a ton from this app, especially the academy and then practicing in fantasy finance. I highly recommend it for anyone who’s trying to test the waters of investing!
