Spot prices seem to be consistent with other apps. Suggestions add more metals copper aluminum ect... ### 3/5 — Perfect works just as described *2013-01-03, version 1.2.1* The app is Great just Missing one VERY important thing the refresh button, you have to close the app and shut it down manually in order for it to refresh, so if you have the app open from yesterday it will show yesterday prices so PLEASE ADD A REFRESH BUTTON VERY EASY. Thank you and will rate 5 StArS ### 4/5 — Love the push and email notification *2012-12-12, version 1.2.1* Pretty basic functionality but the only one I found with push and email notification. ### 5/5 — I love this App! *2012-10-23, version 1.2* I love this application, it's very useful. I can't wait for the upgrade! ### 5/5 — Great! *2012-06-18, version 1.0.1* I is very recoureful if you own good metal!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t see how you set alert *2024-05-09* This feature is advertised but I can’t see it on the app. ### 1/5 — Real time prices off *2021-06-08, version 2.6.3* The real time prices on this app are always lower from three others I check. Gold price is off by about 90 cents and silver is always off 10-12 cents (lower). Don’t understand how it can be off that much all the time. ### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD App. Version 2.2.4 does not work *2016-10-19, version 2.2.4* I can't delete app because the update doesn't work and gets stuck. ### 1/5 — Does not work... *2014-12-18, version 2.0.13* It will not update or send notifications...junk. Installed it twice, after it sent an initial notification, it fixed on last weeks price and would not update...for four days now...same price is displayed. No way to manually tell it to update. Big waste of time! ### 1/5 — Don't Download *2013-11-20, version 1.3* This app is useless.. Sure it gives you the "live" prices but it's notifications whether it's email or banner do not work at all.. Try someone else. ### 1/5 — Bogus *2012-10-19, version 1.2* I agree: doesn't work. "N/A" just doesn't cut it. ### 1/5 — Doesnt work *2012-10-18, version 1.2* Getting n/a for all prices ### 1/5 — WAS working great *2012-10-17, version 1.2* This app WAS working great but now all I get for pricing is N/A. Please fix. ### 2/5 — Too simple *2024-01-01, version 2.6.3* This app is three levels below basic. Will go several days without updating prices. ### 2/5 — Needs more *2013-02-01, version 1.2.1* Needs to show the how much the commodity is up or down. Just the price is okay but that would make it more worth it and a chart would be good ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Staff *2025-05-16, version 2.6.6* The staff at Manhattan are all very nice and personable. In there Own Way !!!!!! ### 5/5 — The best ever *2025-04-13, version 2.6.6* Forgive me but I’m finding your app very confusing. I’m 94 now and retired but years ago I did business with Mark. I’m Only interested to see what you’re paying for scrap metal but I just can’t find it on your app. Help! ### 5/5 — Best app for precious metal pricing! *2017-10-16, version 2.3.2* Tried almost all the apps and I was looking for one that had a nice historical chart. I like the ‘day view’ on the chart. Only improvement would be to be able to zoom on chart. ### 5/5 — Very useful, simple *2014-10-05, version 2.0.10* Nice app that provides basic price information without clutter or complexity. Price alarm feature is also a plus. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2012-12-20, version 1.2.1* Does what it says it does!!
