Really good to add/pair with tradingview or your favorite platform. My trades have been better and more profitable since acquired the app. Give it a try ### 3/5 — Great Service, Okay App *2025-11-11* Unusual Whales is a great service that delivers on giving individual investors necessary data to spot big moves. While their service is great and the website has a friendly UI, the app is a bit clunky. Not a deal breaker but wouldn’t mind seeing a refreshed app in the future with a smoother UI. With that being said, thank you for continuing to deliver where it counts, the data. ### 2/5 — Mobile alerts not working *2025-10-14, version 24.2.27* The mobile alerts does NOT work properly. Reinstalled 4x and nothing. Few customs alerts come through from the web app that I have set up. Please fix! ### 4/5 — Can’t save watchlist *2025-09-06* Try and add a ticker to a watch list but when I press create watchlist nothing happens ### 2/5 — Incorrect data *2025-02-18* It lists the 52 week high for Nvidia as $195 on both the mobile app and the website. Nvidia stock has never reached this price. If it can’t get the basic bare bones data correct, why am I supposed to trust the more advance gamma exposure and volatility charts? Otherwise, I like the interface and a lot of the features but I find it very off-putting that I noticed this one day after signing up for the app. ### 3/5 — Landscape View Please! *2025-01-05, version 24.1.90* Love you guys -- the data is great, but plz let's get landscape going. ### 3/5 — Decent but much room for improvement *2024-10-16, version 24.1.79* I want to be able to see the futures contract and options on the futures like ES and NQ. Also add some more features like gexbot. Being able to draw important levels that can act as resistance/support is essential. ### 5/5 — new update rocks *2024-10-07, version 24.1.78* can finally use market tide, awesome ### 5/5 — Notifications No Longer Working *2024-10-03* Update: I figured that I needed to adjust my Custom Alerts on the web first — I am getting notification on the app now, thanks! I somehow stopped getting all push notifications (for flow plus my custom alerts) on the app sometime ago. All notifications settings appears to be on on my end, so I am at a loss as to why I don’t get any notifications on iOS. Any help would be highly appreciated! ### 5/5 — Innovation & Exceptionalism *2024-08-13* These guys are committed to there costumers, and traders just like there users. They never stop innovating, and bringing the top of the line improvements to our finger tips. But the greatest part of all of this is there ability to keep it affordable, for starters, advanced, and in between. You have time to level up your trading while not taking a huge hit every month for the payment. And once you learn to use the info and flow provided, this app pays for itself. I cannot thank you guys enough. ### 4/5 — applicazione in costante aggiornamento *2024-08-03* migliora di giorno in giorno manca ancora la sezione volatility sugli stock ### 4/5 — Unable to view call premium info *2024-06-20* Net flow page second section call/put premium the blue border lines directly in site on the call premium # - unable to view on app. Same for mkt tide section. Also flow alerts unable to view info as it’s overlapping as well. ### 5/5 — Wonderful Service *2024-06-14* Appreciate the work that the devs put into developing the mobile app. It is definitely impressive considering they are a small company. With that being said, there is some room for improvement on the mobile app, but I am confident they will improve it as they are able. Huge fan of their web service and am grateful I can have access on mobile as well. ### 3/5 — landscape mode please~ *2024-06-02* I love unusualwhales app. but very very uncomfortable. please support landscape mode~ ### 3/5 — Landscape mode *2024-05-17, version 24.1.12* It would be great if we can get landscape capability on the iPad. App is great, market tide is a game changer for me. I would like to be able to have in landscape to customize it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — OxRank is better *2026-03-17, version 24.2.44* OxRank is just way more useful especially for options and market data including fear and greed indeces and portfolio tracking. ### 1/5 — Hard to use *2026-01-23, version 24.2.44* Bad app ### 1/5 — Monetizing retail traders curiosity *2025-10-31, version 24.2.30* Your just paying for color coded alerts and a clean interface there’s no secret edge just public data ### 1/5 — Forced account usage *2025-02-01* Any app that forces you to make an account before I can even see how it works is an instant delete from me. Adios ### 1/5 — Garbage *2024-08-18, version 24.1.65* Garbage ### 1/5 — Overall *2024-04-27, version 24.1.11* The app has great information but overall it’s trash. You can’t do as many things as you can online. Make it more customizable and also add filters to flow alerts on the mobile app ### 1/5 — Worst Options Data *2024-01-12* I wanted to try this software because certain people on Twitter make a big deal about it. The software is very glitchy, is missing a lot of information that does show in other subscriptions, it has way too much information, making it so complicated to just focus on option flow. It is the worst options data. Ridiculous and sad subscription I ever had to use in my life. No wonder they don’t accept refunds. They should be reported. ### 1/5 — New UI update *2023-01-30* Whomever thought of the new UI update, i just want to say you should find a new career. You made everything all “pretty” but functional wise it is more useless than ever before. Please before you make changes such as these, find someone with half a brain and ask them for a second opinion. I cannot stress how angry i am with the useless mobile and ipad apps now, let me try on pc. Hopefully your “talented devs” havent touched it yet and made it something much worse ### 1/5 — Terrible service *2022-06-20, version 23.0.41* Terrible service that is poorly designed and functions horribly. And the company is clearly run by immature, unfocused and misleading individuals. They are more interested in social media clout that providing good service to their clients ### 1/5 — bad service *2022-03-21, version 23.0.41* the company is immature I saw post from Unsual_Whales about how other news channels are using their data! bashing them for it? confusing behaviour! Team members bash and try to silence anyone they disagree with! making clients scared to voice their opinion’s it’s apparent they lack leadership but what company doesn’t in our modern day! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — New ai feature is great *2026-05-20* Works well ### 5/5 — Very smart *2025-10-20, version 24.2.30* The info is spot ### 5/5 — Great App! *2025-04-10, version 24.2.8* I use it daily, I love the new features. I pay for it and am very happy with the service. ### 5/5 — Worth every penny!!!!!!! *2025-04-01* Have been following unusual whales for a while. Decided to subscribe and try them out. Already paid for itself. On top of that you get access to so many tools and everything is very detailed it’s a no brainer!! Thank you unusual whales team. Keep up the amazing work you guys are doing!! ### 5/5 — Really really great *2025-02-04* This team does an amazing job of updating features and listening to the community. App itself is packed with features and is very slick ### 5/5 — Demasiada información *2025-01-22* En la PC tiene muchos ratios y especulación del precio Spot, además de todo tipo de ordenes que se ejecutan ### 5/5 — Outstanding *2024-12-17* UW is a game changer in helping to uncover the mysteries of the option world. The app is incredible, the development team just the best. I’ve been a subscriber for almost a year and literally not a week goes by with an improvement. They are incredibly responsive to requests that that makes sense and are achievable and waste no time getting them done. Ignore comments from longer than a year the app is almost completely remade and always for the better. UW is an incredible service that has paid for itself many times over by giving an edge on where and which way the smart money is flowing. ### 5/5 — Would recommend to everyone *2024-12-16, version 24.1.89* This app saved my portfolio. Great education videos to learn to interpret the flow. I love this app! ### 5/5 — The Very Best!! *2024-12-16* Unusual Whales is truly exceptional, and the team behind it is remarkable. They continually innovate with new ways to enhance the filtering process, and I can't express enough how wonderful it is to be a part of the UW community! ### 5/5 — Worth every penny *2024-12-16* The Unusual Whales app is fantastic! The information provided is incredibly detailed and insightful, the design is clean and user-friendly, and the community and creators behind it are truly exceptional. Highly recommend! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
