### 1/5 — Péssimo

*2025-05-23*

Nem ao menos consegui utilizar o aplicativo pois pediu pagamento antes mesmo de abrir o aplicativo então eu nem sei como ele funciona normalmente utilizo o aplicativo pra ver se compensa pagar

### 1/5 — Not Recomended

*2022-07-22*

Subscriptions are a rip-off, and 35€ for “lifetime” is way to much for it's limited functions. 
The prices that are in the discription are NOT what the app truly charges.
Values of Commodities are in US$ only.
Graph is useless.
There are free websites that do much more and are much better, don't waste your money.

### 1/5 — Subscription for Free information

*2022-06-18*

Gold price charts are free online, why would I want to pay a subscription for this information.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2022-02-22*

Limited charting, price updating is very delayed and behind real time price.

### 1/5 — Downloads but won't work on an Intel Mac Pro

*2022-01-20*

I downloaded it to my MacPro Intel running Monterey 12.1 but trying to launch is just met with an alert that the app quit unexpectedly. I suppose you can call it “quit." Except, I never saw it run for a tenth of a second.

### 2/5 — No bitcoin

*2022-01-18*

Very disappointed they did not include bitcoin/crypto.

### 1/5 — no good

*2021-10-17*

all this does is immediately say your subscription has expired, pay to renew. i didn’t bother. that’s a false prospectus in my opinion. 

would give zero stars if i could.

### 1/5 — Does not work on M1 macs

*2021-08-19*

It would be a very useful paid app right now if updated.  Adding widgets would be great as well.  Looking for live data feeds.

### 5/5 — excelente

*2021-06-09*

:)

### 5/5 — Widget Issue

*2021-06-08*

Had this app for some time and worked well. 4 Stars.
Used a 6 tile widget for commodities i was interested in.
Recieved the latest upgrade today and only offers 1, 2 or 4 tile widget. What happened?
I have iPhone 11, ios14.6
Rated too1 Star until this issue is resolved
Any help or advice appreciated.
