✓ Real good but a serious issue...Ok, this is a really solid program. There is 1 serious problem and another couple of issues that could make this much better. Let's deal with the "cons" first. First the serious issue: When reading what this program will do above it says, "Scrolling up the calculator displays the metal's common fineness measurements, priced in user defined currency, in ounces or grams. Gold fineness measurements include 24k, 22k, 18, 14k, 12k, 10k and 9k." This lead me to believe that one could calculate in any of those karat weights. This is not so. This program WILL NOT calculate in 10k or 9k gold. It is not possible to select either of these weights. It will on the other hand show you what the spot price is in each of the karat weights, but will not let you calculate in 10k or 9k. This is a very serious omission and that is why I deducted 2 stars. If I'm trying to get an idea of the value of something someone wants to sell and it is 10k, I have to use 2 programs - this one to look up the price per gram and another to calculate the price (multiply price per gram by number of grams of the piece being looked at). Come on programmers, it should be VERY easy to add at least 10k to the calculator. The next issue is that it does not include any latin american currencies. Again, a pretty simple issue that could be addressed in an update, I believe. (This company has another program called iCurrencyPad which is heads and shoulders above all others of it's kind. This is why I know they can implement other currencies into this program.) One more issue on the minus side - the multi day chats are not readable. Could you make it so we can pinch and expand them? And how about making this a universal app that at least takes advantage of the iPad's screen size. It would make viewing the charts a real joy. Ok, now to it's good points. Wow is it ever a great program. It is solid. And a HUGE advantage is that it is available in numerous languages. It works with IOS 4.0 (programmers need to insure compatibility with 4.2) which is a huge advantage. If you need to know precious metal prices, get this now. It is the best. And while it has been awhile since it has been updated, let's hope one is forthcoming shortly to address simple usability issues that would skyrocket the popularity of this program. To recap: Cons: * Needs to add the ability to calculate at least 10k gold along with the others. * Needs to include more currencies (latin american, please). * Multi day charts need to be able to be expanded so they are readable. * Need to make universal so it takes advantage of iPad too. Pros: * Can be used in numerous languages. * Rock solid. * Fast. * Very organized and a pleasure to look at and work with. * Great interface Note to programmers: With precious metals going through the roof right now, this your opportunity to make this a runaway best seller.

✓ No updateDoes not update. Become useless..Version: 3.8
✓ Do not update!!!!HATE the new style! Does not automatically show the list of prices of 24, 22, 18, 14, 10K; unless you press them to show the price difference. Before their was a list in which one could scroll down showing all the prices of 24, 22, 18, 14, and 9K. Now I have to individually press each karat to see the price difference. Not good! The blue background was a much better design then a plain off white. What I do like is the new "fee" button and alerts..Version: 3.0
✓ B- could do better!Besides not being able get a live price every now and then for whatever reason, most of the time this works. The graphs can be a little dodgy however. On the 3 dayer, it's showing prices 4 days ago, and isn't refreshing. All a bit dodgy....Version: 2.42
✓ Palladium & Charts?For 7.99, it should at least including PALLADIUM and LIVE & HISTORICAL CHARTS..Version: 0
✓ DisappointedI purchased this app only because it has a notification widget.but widget isn't working properly, everytime i want to check price it shows mein last price when i opened app.widget isn't getting refresh automatically.please fix it if u can (Background app refresh is switched on) Thanks.Version: 3.5
✓ Use to be a great appUse to be a great app when it had charts and for a while now chart don't work and it very important to see historical data. Hope they fix this It's been a while now.Version: 3.3
✓ 1 thing missing...No 10k in the calculator? The majority of scrap and broken gold coming across my counter is either 10k or 14k. I'm only able to use this app half of the time because the 10k fineness is not available in the calculator, so i have to hit a website. I has hoping this app would replace that hassle. Please, please, please give an update for this. Get rid of 9k if you have too, but in the US, we see a lot of 10k, and missing this in the calculator really cripples the app. Everything else is absolutely awesome. Again, I'm begging you.... Add the 10k option to the calculator..Version: 2.40
✓ App is dead since SonomaWas great for years but now it doesn’t work and the developer has gone dark..Version: 3.8
✓ AlmostPlease add 10k option. Also not displaying correctly on ipad 2. Please check and fix. Works great on iphone 5s..Version: 3.3
✓ Stopped workingHave enjoyed using for years, hasn’t come out of an update loop for many months now. Will have to find another app to reference, bummer..Version: 3.8
✓ IgoldLimited and poor value..Version: 0
✓ Currency option for Nz pleaseShame no option for Nz currency, otherwise good.Version: 0
✓ More metals pleasePlease just know that you are only getting an index on 3 precious metals and not all metal pricing.Version: 0
✓ This App has stopped workingThis was an awesome app, until it stopped working about three months ago. FIX YOUR PROBLEMS and you will keep selling this app..Version: 3.8
✓ DO NOT PURCHASEThis was a fantastic tool for me for a lot of years but… the developer stopped updating it back in 2020 and then it stopped working at the end of 2023. Apparently it is still available for purchase but Apple don’t have a department that deals with developers issues! Or that’s what I got told on 11 January 2024. Complain… use your voice to right wrongs!!!.Version: 3.8
✓ Close but no cigar!Jeez! U guys showed just enough screens shots to make a person think you knew what you were doing. I wanted something less cluttered than the free Kitco app so I DL'd your app. Very Disappointing! In a perfect world I would like to see the following: A separate screen for each metal in a currency or two of my choice, selecting each metal should be completed with the swipe motion similar to the home page apps. turning the iphone sideways switches to chart view of each metal with 1d to 5y timeframes. (similar to the very handy Bloomberg app).Version: 0
✓ Charts not workingCharts have not worked for the last week.Version: 3.3
✓ Only Gold Chart WorksJust updated and the only chart that works is for gold. Silver, platinum, and palladium say "chart not available"..Version: 3.4
✓ I feel cheated - not helpful at all.I bought this for the calculator, but was very disappointed. It only calculates 9, 14, 18, 22 and 24KT. What about 10KT? Not flexible - or useful - enough to justify $5.99. I buy scrap gold jewelry every day, and this seems like a pretty obvious gap. Also, the lack of information or screen shots on the calculator makes me feel cheated, like they were hiding something. Get the free Kitco or Bloomberg app instead. I wish there was a way to give zero or a half star - one star is more than I wanted to give this..Version: 0
✓ No refresh since last yearIs this app dead now?.Version: 3.8
✓ AwfulCharts and price alerts don't work and have not been fixed for months DO NOT BUY.Version: 3.3
✓ DeadNo updates.Version: 3.8
✓ Yes, alas, it is deadThis app is clearly no longer supported by the developer; prices don't update and the last time the app itself was updated was circa 2020. My suggestion would be to have a look at JM Bullion and/or APMEX for apps that provide the functionality that iGold used to, plus much more. 👍🏻.Version: 3.8
✓ Hell I bought it.I thought it would be worth it, if only it had the price of Copper. Which is what I really need!.Version: 0
✓ Don’t waste your moneyJust use kitco.Version: 3.8
✓ Please update!Good app, slightly overpriced. If you could please allow other countries to be featured on the home screen instead of just the US it would appeal to more ppl.Version: 0
✓ Calculator!?UPDATED! Why does the calculator STILL not work with other currencies apart from USD? How do I get my money back?.Version: 2.41
✓ MalfunctionThis I my normal “go to “ app, but it hasn’t updated for four days, showing as ‘no internet connection ‘ but , there is. Shame..Version: 3.8
✓ Charts still aren't workingThis has been a very good app until recently. Once the charts stopped working it became less good. Get the charts back (longer term trends would be a plus) and this app will again be very good or even great..Version: 3.3
