### 4/5 — Excellent

*2025-04-13, version 1.148.0*

Très content de cette appli qui est clair et limpide, facile d’utilisation et intuitif. Quelques axes d’amélioration : il manque encore pas mal d’ETF, plus de filtres dans la recherche d’actifs (recherche par début d’ISIN, pouvoir supprimer des pays ou des secteurs dans la recherche, pousser les graphiques à 10 ans d’ancienneté).
Sinon, très satisfait 😃

### 1/5 — Arnaque

*2025-03-25, version 1.146.0*

Ils m’ont fermé mon compte avec aucune explication

### 2/5 — Impossible de fournir mes documents

*2025-03-15, version 1.144.0*

Je me suis connecté sur l'application, j'ai ouvert un compte, j'ai renseigné mes données personnelles, puis lorsque vient le moment de donner ma carte d'identité impossible de le faire.
Je tombe sur une page où il y a un seul bouton disponible " Télécharger le documents " mais quand j'appuie dessus rien ne se passe, et ça fait bientôt 4 jours.
Alors que faire ?

### 2/5 — Impossibilité de crée un compte

*2024-10-11, version 1.122.0*

Ayant eu de bon échos concernant cette application, j’ai donc décidé de la télécharger afin de m’en faire mon propre avis. Mauvaise surprise alors que le code reçu par sms ne fonctionne pas lors de la création de compte. 
J’ai donc attendu 3 fois 5 minutes afin d’essayer de nouveaux codes mais rien n’y fait. 
J’ai également essayer de désinstallé et réinstaller l’application mais le problème persiste. 
Si quelqu’un passe par là et peu me donner une solution à ce problème je suis preneur.
