Developer tournament reset

Some nitpicks with the app, no dividend returns, graph of portfolio shows what the current portfolio if invested from opening of the app would be worth but not the actual worth of the portfolio and changes over time.

But one very big issue, the weekly tournament is able to be reset by anyone, or at least me. I feel this should not be possible at all, I didn’t think it was but I was curious so I tried to and it let me without a hitch. This shoipd be fixed, I don’t even have premium on the app.

I do very much appreciate not having ads on the free version but wish I could save up my one trade a day and then do multiple trades on one day.

Overall best free app that I have found for this but still has many issues

Ideas

I really wish it had index funds like the S&P500 and Dow jones that would make it much better other than that great game

PLEASE READ THIS

You literally have to buy a subscription if you don’t you can only make 1 trade a day. That is insane minus well charge for the app. Don’t recommend if your looking for a free stock trading game

Doesn’t use real time data

This platform doesn’t use real time data from the market, so you can’t accurately time trades. Not very helpful

Free for wasting your time

I got to know this program through artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence said it was free, but it turned out to be paid. I wasted a lot of time like 🤡

Only if u know sim

Good

Finally an Investing App That Makes Sense

I’ve tried a lot of stock market apps, but StockSim is the first one that actually helped me understand what I’m doing without risking real money. The live market data feels realistic, and being able to place market, limit, and stop-loss orders makes it feel like a real trading platform.

What I love most is the combination of practice and learning. The bite-sized lessons are clear and not overwhelming, and the AI trading coach is surprisingly helpful when I want quick insights about a stock or recent news. It’s like having a guide built into the app.

The simulator helped me realize how much emotion affects trading decisions. Practicing here first gave me confidence I didn’t have before. If you’re new to investing or even just want to test strategies safely, this app is absolutely worth downloading.

Highly recommend for anyone serious about learning how the stock market really works.

Free trial

Don’t like how is only a 3 day but it’s helping me a lot with how the market works

Schlecht

Einfach schlecht

Just like all the other cash grabs

I used this from time to time to play with stuff and try to learn since it was free. Now, just like all the decent free apps, it’s gone the way of the ghost. You don’t need to do subscriptions for people that just want to play the game, you can use that as a separate tier, but instead you force people to subscribe or delete the app. Fine by me, there are enough greasy and greedy companies out there. Hopefully this one never makes it to light.

Don’t buy it, don’t subscribe to it. You can likely have ai build a better website you can access that does the same thing, for likely the same cost.

Response from developer

Hi luridminds The subscription helps us cover the high costs of real-time market data and continuous app development. It also unlocks advanced features and an ad-free experience. Thank you for your support!

Not free anymore

Was free and fun while it lasted. Used it only to pass time and for the dopamine hits. After recent update, stocks reset and I lost the 18M that I accumulated through app bug. Now, it wants me to pay for fun. Deleted.

Total waste of time

They let you trade for free for a few days, and then without any warning or notice, they try forcing you to pay for an expensive subscription. This was never disclosed at the beginning, otherwise I would not have wasted my time trading or paying money to add additional funds to my account. I only added additional funds because I thought the trading would be free, only to find out later that I can no longer do any trades without paying a ridiculous $20 a month. There are many other apps out there that don’t try to fool you, I would recommend going with something else.

Response from developer

Hi Kooner9555, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback — we truly appreciate it. We’re sorry for any confusion regarding the subscription. Our goal has never been to mislead users. The free period is meant to let everyone explore the simulator and experience real-market conditions before deciding whether to continue with the premium features. The subscription helps support the high development and data costs involved in maintaining live market simulations and unlocking advanced tools, analytics, and learning features. We try to make this as clear as possible in the app, and we’ll review how we communicate it to make sure it’s even more transparent going forward. We’re grateful you gave the app a try, and we hope you’ll consider that the subscription is what allows us to keep improving and offering a realistic, ad-free trading experience for all users. StockSim team

UPDATE

Garbage app

Response from developer

Hi, We've fixed the issue when searching for stocks. Please update to the latest version. Let us know if it worked. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you

Mostly good

I can’t get reward from ad it stuck on screen but overall good

This app should be delisted or banned

I bought some funds then found out that I couldn’t search any stocks from the search bar.
