Sad, I felt there was a lot of potential. ### 3/5 — Clunky, ineffective, dated *2026-01-28, version 3.1.1160* Could just talk to Claude. This app sucks, would not continue using. Not comfortable connecting my accounts. If I could short an app this would be top of the list. Good idea, horrible execution. ### 2/5 — Needs a lot of work *2025-10-21* Good at giving an overall view of multiple accounts and news about certain investments is ok. However, the responses are extremely slow and sometimes there is no response at all. It cannot rebalance a virtual portfolio, cannot recognize ETFs or mutual funds for what sectors they represent, and seems to forget the topic mid conversation. Just following the review thread, you can even see that the “developer responses” are canned ai nonsense. **Developer response:** Hey, Shawn. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review, and sorry your experience to this point hasn't been ideal. I've passed your feedback along to our product team. They're focused on speeding up the system and improving security analysis. Per your comments, I've also made a note to push for more virtual portfolio capabilities in upcoming releases. ### 3/5 — Good start but has room to grow *2025-08-12* I like that I can connect to my portfolios in different brokerages. I like that it explains my investments. It allows me to be more connected to my investments. However, the information is really nothing new and life changing. The system is very slow. Slow to scroll and slow to answer. Slow to create virtual portfolio and sometimes errors out. When I am looking at AI. I don’t want AI to just explain my portfolios. I looking for AI recommendations of stocks, IPO stocks or market recommendations. More specific alerts And recommendations. Otherwise, AI is basically confirming what I already knew. More specific alerts on a stock I am interested in or show me stocks that I may have missed based on my risk tolerance. **Developer response:** Hi mikeng, Thank you for your feedback. We’d like to learn more about your experience and help resolve any issues. Please contact our support team at support@magnifi.com so we can discuss this further. ### 3/5 — Work in Progress *2024-09-09, version 3.1.148* I wish it was compatible with Principal Financial. I wish it would give me a breakdown of my portfolio distributing the index fund into actual holdings but it only does this for individual stocks ### 3/5 — It’s not there yet *2024-05-29* The way to sum this app up is it’s a work in progress. Some things it does well, some things are a complete miss. It’s ability to answer questions sometimes leaves a lot to be desired. Example, if you ask it to project your dividend totals for all the linked accounts over the next 12 months, the response is not even about dividends. I ask this question about 10 different ways and never got close to a numerical response. Other questions can be quick and correct. Hope this helps anyone thinking about this app. **Developer response:** Hi Shadowbluz, thanks for taking the time to write a review.

Does not provide any analysis information. Does not allow me to create a virtual portfolio but only asks me to link my brokerage account. I dont understand whats the AI part of it!! It doesnot create charts/Trends even if i ask in simple terms. ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-04-01, version 2.1.860* Do not install, they get your info and won’t let you cancel after free tial. It’s a waste of time and money. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Buggy, So I Couldn’t Use *2026-01-16, version 3.1.1160* I tried to link it with my fidelity account and it did not work. I tried relinking, quitting the app and relinking, it says the acct is expired. ### 1/5 — Definitely Useless *2025-04-25, version 3.1.696* Doesn’t connect to most of my accounts, and if it does, the information is useless and doesn’t provide any major assistance other than what I can just do on my own. ### 1/5 — Just Comically Inept *2025-02-21, version 3.1.542* I love a cool AI application. This ain’t it. I asked it for my historical under performers, and got an answer. Great. “Any others?” Same answer. “No, other than ___, any under performers?” Same answer. Okay, I’ll stick the prepared prompts. “Sorry, that’s not within my capabilities.” What?!? I selected from your prepared prompts by pressing a button. Pretty rough design. Terrible performance. Already canceled my subscription and delete my account. ### 1/5 — Clunky *2025-02-02, version 3.1.482* Seems super slow, continuously gives me errors. I have to do things multiple times to get it to work like the watch list. Had to cancel the ap then go on a PC re register to my accounts to link. And when I did that was an unorganized mess. Not really impressed with anything yet. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2024-12-24, version 3.1.374* Waste of money. Better off just using chat gpt. Only got it because of the Amex offer ### 1/5 — Useless. *2024-11-25* I can’t connect to my brokerage account, since it’s not supported. There’s no way to add my assets manually - when asking the AI for instructions on how to *use the app*, after it told me that “adding assets manually *is possible*”, it gave, “I’m sorry I have technical difficulties fetching that data”. Also the “AI” is more like a GPT3 chatbot: Very limited range of answers. I practically never write reviews… But This App Is Trash. **Developer response:** Hi elletronyx, thanks for your interest in Magnifi. Please email us at support@magnifi.com so we can help you to get the most out of Magnifi ### 1/5 — Cant log in *2024-10-09, version 3.1.211* I signed up but i cant log in ### 1/5 — Unable to connect financials *2024-10-07, version 3.1.197* I have tried for 2 days to connect my vanguard and fidelity accounts. Continue getting error messages that say I need to try outside of certain time frames. Which I have. Still error messages. Highly recommend the free trial in case users experience the same problems. ### 1/5 — Nothing great to say here *2024-09-10, version 3.1.148* Don’t waste your time and money! ### 1/5 — DONT BUY! *2024-05-18, version 2.1.922* I wanted it for the “POWR30” and there is nothing about it inside the app. I just get stupid emails waiting to pay more to get info…save your $150 dollars ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Everything pretty much *2026-07-30* Everything’s going well my stocks are going well it’s easy to access and change and trade or whatever I need to do thank you very much and I really appreciate your help ### 5/5 — Got the bugs fixed *2026-01-29, version 3.1.1160* Got it linked with fidelity and the CTO reached out and apologized for it not working. Cool app ### 5/5 — Circular update messages *2025-11-07* I don't know why I continue to get the Update Required message after just updating 2 seconds ago in the App Store, which has the Open app icon, when clicked it takes me back to the Update Required screen. It is still the same when I try the website, instead of the app Also, I would like to be able to review all accounts so I am not a fan that my Ally account is not included in my performance or I need to enter it manually ### 5/5 — Works great *2025-04-09, version 3.1.664* I love the portfolio alerts ### 5/5 — Very helpful especially in these uncertain financial times! *2025-04-07* Being able to ask questions about my holdings without having to know how to analyze investments is great! I'm excited to see how they improve the AI going forward to make it even easier to use. ### 5/5 — Works well for me. *2025-03-18* Great app as a co-pilot to me investing needs ### 5/5 — Useful *2025-03-05, version 3.1.579* This app has been really good. It is well made with few problems, and has helped me a lot. ### 5/5 — Review *2024-07-25, version 3.0.57* Would like more dividend stocks for portfolio. ### 5/5 — Smart Tool *2024-05-30, version 2.1.943* Love this interface and the fees are very minimal ### 5/5 — Rapidly improving *2024-05-10, version 2.1.900* Love the new feature around portfolio health checks and what if scenarios --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
