### 5/5 — A must-have. Pro Version

*2026-06-03*

Additional Ghostfolio overview display.
App is constantly evolving, and updates are implemented promptly.

I use Ghostfolio Selfhosted.
This app really makes sense as Pro Version.

### 1/5 — Unusably slow

*2026-04-22*

Takes 20 seconds or more to load when you click on almost anything in the portfolio tab. Unusable. You’re better off with the ghostfolio mobile site.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the honest feedback, and sorry for the frustrating experience.

The slow loading in the Portfolio tab is most likely caused by the app fetching and processing a large amount of portfolio data at once. Scaryfolio tries to update/conciliate all data with the data sources so that you don't see stale data, something that the web UI does not do. That should not make the app feel unusable, though.

I appreciate you calling this out. If you’re open to it, let's discuss your specific issue through support (at support@bittenapps.com), so I can better reproduce and check if there's anything I can do to improve the situation to you.
