StockSpy HD for iPad simplifies tracking stock market news for the companies you follow and allows you to VISUALIZE how the news affects stock prices with NewsCharts!

With StockSpy HD you can automatically load several top quality RSS news feeds for each of the symbols you're tracking. This provides you with more complete information when making your important investment decisions. Stop losing money because you're not getting all the important news & information about your stocks. Say goodbye to wasting time by manually checking several news websites and still not getting the whole picture on your stocks. Start making more money because you have the information to make smart trades.

NewsChart technology shows you how the news volume changes over time. As you flick through the news articles the NewsChart highlights the currently active bar for the visible news items in the news list. This means if you find a day which had interesting price change (like a big pop or drop) you can easily find out what news was "driving" the stock. We have taken this great innovation we call NewsCharts from Stock Spy for the desktop (available on PC + Mac! See more details at Stock-Spy.com) and brought it to the iPad! You always have access to NewsCharts with a large chart filling the right side of the screen and a smaller NewsChart above the news list for when you're viewing web content on the right panel.

StockSpy HD provides easy access to information from the top Investor websites with Symbol Specific website links. This allows you to browse detailed information about specific stocks having to type a symbol.

StockSpy HD allows complete customization of news sources. Our innovative feed template system allows you to setup a news feed once and use it for every symbol in your list. You can also add individual feeds to a specific stock. StockSpy HD uses the extremely popular RSS feed standard. Many popular financial news websites provide RSS news feeds free of charge. Blogs, investor relations sites even the SEC provide RSS feeds which can accessed using StockSpy HD! ... If you have never heard of RSS news feeds before don't worry.

### 5/5 — great tool

*2026-07-23, version 9.0*

Great app. I use on all my devices. Very happy with all the features. I have used it daily for years . Thank You.

### 2/5 — It’s ok BUT…

*2026-07-06, version 9.0*

If you want a stock chart app, this app does that - nice chart BUT

Once you build your list of stocks, it won’t sort, every stock you’re curious to check gets put in your list so your constantly cleaning out your list

If you just want to browser you stocks’ charts, every time you click on one of your items, you must backarrow to get to your next item.  That quickly becomes a pain in the azz.

There is a vertical line that lets you pursue one period in your chart but NO horizontal line to examine resistance lines.

In sum: this isn’t worth 20 bucks for a half-baked app.

### 5/5 — The best app to track one’s investments I have found, period.

*2026-04-07, version 8.9*

I have tried using many financial apps to follow my retirement investments and savings. This is by far the easiest, most consistent across my devices, and the most logical, unlike Yahoo finance, which I find inconsistent between my computer and my tablet. I use it every day. Kudos to the creators. I hope they keep it up-to-date for many years to come. The only feature that makes it not totally perfect for me is the inability to have an investment listed under more than one group listing. For example, if I were to have APPL in both Schwab and Vanguard groupings, there isn’t any way to do that. No, it is not a dealbreaker for me, but I’d love to see that in a future update. Otherwise this app is perfect.

### 5/5 — Found My “Lost Stock App” AGAIN!

*2024-08-23, version 8.8*

Why did I ever lose it? Carelessness! 

Its Great - features, current valuable info, et cetera!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2024-08-03, version 8.5*

It’s a great way to keep up with what with my stocks, you guy should add options as well that would be fantastic

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-07-30*

It is my go to stock app throughout the day.

### 2/5 — Incomplete Canadian ticker symbols

*2024-07-29, version 8.5*

For the price I would think there would be a complete list of TSX companies listed. Hard to track your portfolio when you can’t enter the stock symbol of a major company.

### 5/5 — I use it regularly

*2024-05-12*

The best on I have found over the years

### 4/5 — Great Tool to Monitor Stocks

*2024-03-22*

I have in built to group various stocks by industry as well as my own own investment lists over various  sources like Schwab and Sofi. It is my go to list every morning and throughout the day from my iPad or iPhone.  However since I use it to monitor over 100 stocks it requires more than an older iPad. In my case I use the M1 iPad Air to get immediate performance in realtime to monitor the ticker symbols as they change including the directional momentum. The detail graphics on any stock is also very good to give various options to monitor RSI, Volume, and moving averages along with a list of recent articles.

### 1/5 — This app has gone to the dogs

*2023-07-28, version 7.8*

I used to use this app religiously and bought each separate version for my phone, iPad and Desktop (all at additional cost). 
It used to sync perfectly
It doesn’t anymore
The developers used to respond to any issues via email quickly. They don’t anymore.
Now nothing syncs and, even worse, historical inputs of certain shares are have gone missing or are wrong. 
I’ve tried removing the app and reinstalling but then the next problem rears its ugly head. If you’ve forgotten your password there doesn’t seem to be any logical way to retrieve or renew it. 
I’m bitterly disappointed and angry about how this once awesome app, has completely gone to the dogs.
