### 1/5 — Stole my money.

*2023-03-12*

They stole my money. I couldn’t access my portfolio for the past 2 months. What a scam! No one is answering me. I need my money. I need to see my portfolio. It just shows history of the trades and dividend up until Dec of 2021. Nothing after and no info on what I’m holding.

### 1/5 — Fraudulent App! STOLE MY MONEY

*2023-01-06, version 1.20.0*

I CANT ACCESS MY PORTFOLIO AT ALL! I need to buy and sell! I can’t see anything I have.

### 1/5 — Needs to be removed !

*2022-11-24, version 1.20.0*

This app evidently is no longer functional, and has been replaced by the Stocktwits app. Don’t bother with this one!

### 1/5 — Garbage App

*2021-10-12, version 1.18.0*

Save yourself time and pick literally any other app. Think of the worst app, this will beat it for The Worst App Ever Created.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2021-08-06, version 1.18.0*

This app is the worst app I’ve ever tried. I say tried because I haven’t even been able to get it to work in two weeks of trying. I’ve been trying to get my password reset and even tried setting it up with a different email NOTHING works! This app is a total waste of time! Stay with Robinhood, at least you can set that up. I just tried again ( months later than my original review ) and it’s the same thing, it will not set up. I give up. If it’s this hard to set up what will happen with my money when trading? Forget this.

**Developer response:** Hi - We are sorry to hear you are having issues with the password reset. We would be glad to help troubleshoot if you can contact us at support@@tradeapp.me. Thank you for your patience!

### 1/5 — don’t bother

*2021-06-02, version 1.17.0*

As an active user of Webull and Robinhood, i’m generally fascinated by any new FinTech innovations and learned about the Trade App pretty early on, esp being a fan of the StockTwits platform.

while the apps i used at the time were more than sufficient, i decided to sign up for the TA waitlist anyway to see how the UX interface compares and whether it could become an additional brokerage to use.

well i signed up on 11/28/19 and i’m still on the “waitlist” 552 days later lol, without any communication about application status (tho they did send 39 marketing emails since then trying to convince me to create an account?)

—but in any case, i’d just suggest anyone reading this to trust their investment funds with a more reliable broker.

### 2/5 — Cant get past login

*2021-04-30, version 1.17.0*

I put in my phone number correctly and got the confirmation code but when i put the code in it says invalid phone number. The phone number is valid... pls fix thx

### 1/5 — Withdrawal

*2021-04-06, version 1.17.0*

I wish I could give them less then one start  It’s more then a week that I am trying to withdraw my funds but funds are still not available to transfer. They have no phone number listed to call customer support and I have emailed them several time but didn’t get any response.

### 1/5 — Robinhood in disguise

*2021-02-26, version 1.17.0*

They restrict trading and also make overnight purchase orders at the worst possible price

### 1/5 — Horrible and sketchy

*2021-02-17, version 1.15.0*

Typed in TD Ameritrade and this came up somehow. I downloaded it and it was horrible from the word go. Couldn’t link bank. Horrible Home Screen. Childlike. NO
