Yahoo Finance: Stocks & News for Positive User Reviews
✓ Most recent update displays wrong currencyThe most recent update converts my US watch lists into AUD (local) and I can’t change it back. I need to see them in USD, not have to take into account USD/AUD fluctuations as well as gain/loss on the actual stock.Version: 3.23.0
✓ Earnings reportPlease fix earning report page should only be earning report from watch list not every stock.Version: 10.0.0
✓ Yahoo FinanceGreat app and allows you to monitor your portfolio at a glance..Version: 4.10.0
✓ I am sick and tired of reviewsWhy does everyone want a review seconds after using a web site? Is it because suppliers think everyone has no life and that this can be enhanced by spending day after day writing reviews or am I the only person in the world who thinks this way Finally I know that you will not publish this even though I gave your site 5 stars which obviously is ambiguous without comments Alan Hynd.Version: 6.8.2
✓ Fantastic App Easy to useIt's easy to setup and updates your quote list quickly. News section is excellent. You can also customise the information shown against your quotes. Excellent app and the best I have used to-date..Version: 8.1.0
✓ Clean interface - easy to track stock performanceBasic information is sufficient for me. I particularly like the presentation of share info.Version: 8.3.1
✓ Garth McVicarLove Yahoo Finance, incredible tool!.Version: 7.1.1
✓ Yahoo FinanceWhat’s not to like? It updates all my stock values in real time and I can see these values wherever I have my phone. If I wasn’t I can deal wherever I am as I have all the information I need to do so. I have used it for many years and it just keeps getting better and better.Version: 3.17.0
✓ Great stocks appA graph comparison overlay would be an advantage..Version: 7.2.1
✓ Widget needs price change optionUnless I am missing something, unlike the Apple Stocks app widget, it appears the Yahoo! Finance app widget does not offer an option to see a stocks list by price change rather than percentage change. It would be great if one could press on the widget and when selecting Edit have the option to show the change in either percentage or price. I know its simple enough to open the app and see your portfolio set by price, or try to convert it in ones head for those visually gifted to do math in their mind, but if the widget could do it like the Apple Stocks widget that would be great..Version: 9.28.0
✓ Disappointed that alerts are now restricted to 100I was a fan of yahoo finance as its easy tool to manage your finances and keep a track of stocks you own and know next buy sell point using your techniques. One of the most lovable option I used was add price alerts. Today morning I found that they have restricted it to 100 only with unlimited on upgrade to $25 a month. Thats too disappointing. I don’t think yahoo should charge us for alerts for following reasons. Firstly we are not accessing any proprietary info from yahoo analysts. Secondly we are not interested in knowing research ideas from yahoo, I like to do my own research. Thirdly, you already have my data on stocks I browse and importantly the stocks I own. Searching for new tool that can offer free alerts..Version: 9.3.0
✓ Good app but a few missing thingsThis app is great for information and researching stocks, and is much better than most brokerage apps for those things. It has good app design and is like a good mix between Robinhood’s ease of use and Fidelity’s information. The news stories in the app could be improved a lot though, I would suggest making it easier to find and go through on the news on the stock quotes screen, a good example of this is making it similar to the Apple stocks app where the news stories are just a swipe away. Another problem I have with the news stories are that the ads are the same color and font as the actual stories which is confusing at best and misleading at worst. Having a tint around the ad could go a long way to discerning them from the rest of the news stories and is a chance to make it color themed, purple for the light theme, and a lighter gray for the dark theme. Overall this is one of the best apps I’ve seen for finance, I hope you can get back to me and address my concerns, thanks!.Version: 8.6.0
✓ All my finance needsLove this app. Allows me to track portfolios in different markets and the news content is excellent..Version: 9.23.1
✓ Very happy but Could be better 👍🏼Very comprehensive, just needs an alert feature and multiple watchlist options, good articles posted as well 👍🏼.Version: 7.6.0
✓ It’s all about credThe fact that Motley Fool dominates the news feed is a crying shame. This sleazy publication, screaming “buy this stock to get rich quick” -seemingly pathetic attempts to manipulate the market - is operating at the fringes of legality. An otherwise excellent app providing a good free service, and an outstanding subscription service.Version: 9.11.0
✓ Racist commentsI have reported many times racist posts on the NIO page yet theses people still post and the racism does not stop! So much spam that doesn’t get removed also.. yahoo should have dedicated people looking and removing such things.Version: 9.5.2
✓ Wow. Impressed!!!I have been using the app for a couple of weeks and would never have thought it was that good. Excellent and user friendly for retail investors..Version: 9.0.0
✓ Personalised ViewOnly thing I would add would be the ability to see my personalised views of my portfolio I have in the desktop within the app - otherwise every other feature I use is here.Version: 4.10.0
✓ Nice overviewI find it useful to quickly track my stocks and watch lists, but find the news articles from questionable sources i.e is it news or marketing? A lot of marketing. But then it’s free, and we expect quality for free these days, which is another topic. Somewhere, someone has to pay..Version: 8.8.1
✓ Rely on this - better than most othersI keep track of my shares easily with this. Works with different currencies and does not get into a muddle. I can keep the whole families shares tracked in separate folders and I organise them manually by market and sector which makes it easier to discern trends. Most of the user comments are inane, but not the fault of Yahoo Finance..Version: 9.1.0
✓ Old finance app better on iPadMust retract my comment below, after version upgrade functionality returned! Thank you Could customize to what I want to see. The Home Screen permitted me to list across the top, overall market status to include futures ahead of the open, this is exceeding helpful. The other feature was the holdings summary to show full value of investments being tracked. What I do not understand is I have these features on my iPhone app but less functionality on my iPad and less data displayed on a larger screen ? Yahoo has been great and I’ve used it for many years, yet yahoo and other financial services apps are providing less capabilities and calling it an improvement ? It’s not, IMO..Version: 9.3.0
✓ ExcellentAwesome app. Useful widget. Only feedback would be to allow setting currency of the overview. Can currently set currency for individual portfolios but not the overview of all portfolios..Version: 7.14.1
✓ GreatGreat.Version: 7.10.0
✓ Great appGreat app for stock watching, analytics and keeping track of your holdings. Highly recommended..Version: 5.1.0
✓ Easy to use with lots of info.Really easy and clear app. Love the live news, the charts are good and plenty of news to read as well as figures for quantitative analysis. It’s biggest downfall is the amount of news from Motley Fool. Honestly it’s way too much and you need to limit how many news stories come from them as it ruins my feed..Version: 8.8.2
✓ Yahoo Finance is informative!Yahoo Finance is quite informative and useful for its readers, observers and users. It is serving an incredible purpose to those having thirst for Finance related news and analysis..Version: 7.8.2
✓ Changes to appI don’t like the graphs that have recently been introduced on the price page. I like to see these by moving into the specific share page but it has made the numbers smaller and harder to see. The page is now too busy and I have to say I have to look more closely. I don’t like this and would prefer it moves back to how it was..Version: 8.5.0
✓ Horrible update!I loved this app But after this last update, no more "grid" view on iPad when in landscape mode. I used to be able to see all of my holdings and see all of the price quotes in three grid rows. It was a wonderful thing and so helpful in monitoring my portfolio. Now after this update, it is pretty much useless for me, unless they fix these issues ASAP. Looks like many others are having the same problem. Please return the grid settings as before, or many will be deleting this app and looking for a better platform. *Updated Review* Thank you for correcting the grid view! I can once more use this app daily as my go to! Thank you for addressing the problem and listening to the many users that were affected. Five Stars!.Version: 7.3.1
✓ New update with the side barI used to love this app very much. However, the latest update , the formate has changed. I tell you this change is like the new Coke, bring the previous formate. For example, if I have multiple portfolios built and I click on one of the them then on several of the portfolios, I won’t be able to go back to home unless I hit back several times. Additionally, the major indexes were always displayed on top, with the new format, once you click on a portfolio, the indexes are gone. I would have given this app 5 stars except for the new changes of format. It’s really an awesome app to track investment and it allows for multiple portfolios to built. Please bring back the old format..Version: 9.3.0
✓ Lee experience Of the introduction to Yahoo financeTo start off I would say that I like the layout of yahoo finance. I like the easy to understand structure of the page. It’s clear concise, and I like how I can type in a product and most likely find the ticker symbol. The only thing I would improve about Yahoo finance is actually teaching the client like myself the basics of finance for exampleWhat does market cap actually mean and how can we benefit, how can I benefit offered increase in market cap. If there was a small section about the different terms and definitions it probably would make Yahoo finance the place to get all your information about finance..Version: 6.11.0
✓ Best Finance AppI use this everyday and the interface and experience is definitely best. Only sad thing is where did the comments section disappear to????.Version: 8.8.0
✓ Yahoo Finance - your finger on the financial pulseYahoo Finance gives me up to date news on what is happening on US and global markets 24/7. Just what I need to stay informed and in tune. It’s my go to when I wake up and before I go to sleep..Version: 5.2.0
✓ Free!Excellent app! Much better than CNBC or Bloomberg which only offer a few videos as analysis but then force you to pay for a subscription if you want to watch more videos and get more information. I know Yahoo! Finance also offers a premium subscription but the regular version is already really helpful and full of insights. Videos just keep on playing, you don’t even have to click on another one. CNBC forces you to connect a TV provider to unlock episodes. Seriously? Who still has cable TV in 2020? Thank you so much Yahoo! and keep up the good work!.Version: 6.12.0
✓ Just not current dataNice enough app: too bad that so many prices are way out of date. That makes the app usable for some individual stocks but useless for my portfolio as a whole. I reported it but nothing changed. Shame, really..Version: 5.1.0
✓ Still one of the best ways of tracking stocksProvides news and premarket stock prices as well as their own video content. Still a great app..Version: 9.23.0
✓ A wealth of informationA wealth of real-time information set out clearly with a intuitive interface. Obviously a lot of time and effort goes into making and maintaining this app - bravo to the developers for a great product..Version: 9.28.0
✓ Easy to handleI like using this APP for periodically checking watch list. It also provides new on your selected watch list..Version: 7.13.1
✓ Updates for premium usersNow the app crashes - test it before release.Version: 7.13.1
✓ Intuitive AppI love the clear, clean interface and accurate information. It’s comprehensive and smooth, easy to use. I see myself using this app for some time, especially as I am beginning to navigate and access the various features much easier now and understand them too..Version: 8.10.0
✓ Yahoo financeMore information available and very intuitive than most .when using other sites I had to come back to Yahoo finance to get complete picture I would give five stars except so many times I click on a certain story when I get there I am asked to subscribe , even though the same story that needs subscription you can find it for free on another site. Public information should not require subscription. Very frustrating to click on story then it tells you you need to subscribe, I understand the reason behind it ,but if the story is public knowledge then it should be read without the annoying subscribe first ,if the story is exclusive to that site only then I understand someone need to subscribe. Most of the time it is not Yahoo but others who put the story on Yahoo then ask for subscription before finishing reading the news..Version: 7.13.1
✓ Everyday I lookingI enjoy this App; watch it most time & it with Facebook same time ; thanks for this service. Look at everyday With virus going around be safe & God bless.i like it has conversations to read what others find out in there research I hope it true not false , God Bless again & Be safe to all in the world we really are all visiting here to embrace each other of all colors when u really think abut it we are on inside the same with red love or red blood & I believe our GoD Watching is all actions are words I sure he disappointed when we if we go to heaven doesn’t separate by race I sure that a tough subject love all in ur circle of life all visiting here don’t hate outside it much better, easier to show peace go live . It SAD to watch on TV show HATE in NY & others states ..Version: 7.6.0
✓ Getting BetterOverall this app has gotten much more powerful with time, but is not quite at the place where I’d like it to be. First, while new features were added to make the app have all the content as its desktop counterpart, some small UI tweaks are needed to make the financials data and other in-depth sections easier to view on mobile devices because of the smaller screen and massive amount of information. And I would like to see a better news feed that incorporates a more varied amount of sources. Also, I’d like to see the font switched to the native iOS font as I think it is more appealing, and switch the advertisement system to have less intrusive banner ads instead of the way the ads are currently presented. Other than that, this app is an essential for keeping track of the market..Version: 4.7.0
✓ Exceeds EspectationsI installed the app but it had a bug that rendered it unusable. I contacted customer support, got an almost immediate reply and within a week an update was issued that resolved the issue. If only all software developers were this responsive. Now its working fine and is a first class app that exceeds expectations. A rare quality indeed..Version: 3.33.0
✓ Hate the new update!Best app for stocks overview, but please revert back to the previous version or at least give us the option! This update makes it very confusing at a glance and is not an ‘upgrade’!.Version: 8.5.0
✓ Informative , user friendly appI have been investing in the stock market intermittently for the last 15 years now. I can say confidently yahoo finance is one of the best apps that are freely available with credible unbiased quality information on companies, stocks and larger economy. Sometimes it makes me wonder how did I overlook this app before. Strongly recommend..Version: 7.9.0
✓ Capital Bank NotesBank notes have stopped updating price for a while now. Totally useless to anyone that have these in portfolio. Used to work before. Please fix this issue..Version: 4.12.0
✓ Great for portfolio monitoringMy computer skills are the most basic; I am so grateful that this app is v easy to use. I can keep track of stocks/funds I’m holding/looking to buy at lower levels, check price histories and basic financial parameters, organise my portfolio into categories..Version: 9.22.1
✓ Yahoo Finance BiasYour biased coverage of Tesla/Musk is beyond frustrating. I’m all for fact based arguments on both sides, but your negative flippant mocking angle is clearly one-sided and has been for a while. Over time your analysts are proven wrong, yet nothing changes. I’m doing everything I can to find a replacement app. When we find out 5-10 years from now that Yahoo Finance had a vested interest in Tesla’s failure, it will not surprise any of us who had the ability to sniff out your constant BS. There should be accountability, not to mention greater time allotted for those with a track record of accurate analysis, instead of opinion-only pieces from babbling heads with only a superficial knowledge of the subject matter..Version: 6.3.0
✓ Amazing app and love the redesignThanks for hotfixing the text size it looks much better now. App is great and nice new update. Glad this app is continuously improving.Version: 10.2.0
✓ Very good contentThese days , it is becoming more and more difficult to get quality/reliable content without subscribing to a paid news site . I find content from Yahoo finance very good and useful , keep up the good work.Version: 7.1.1
✓ Very Useful Investment ToolBesides providing a valuable means of tracking international and domestic portfolios Yahoo Finance presents links to good articles on stock you’ve invested in. I’ve been using it for years and it continues to improve. Well done Yahoo Finance Team..Version: 9.1.0
✓ ReviewVery useful five star for effort A good friend P.Version: 7.12.0
✓ More and more AddsUpdate required for “bug fix” and “improvements” when all that I see changed is more adds every update..Version: 4.14.0
✓ Real Time Prices & Comments On YF Rocks !Amazing value addition to investment community through real time stock prices & commentary. Would highly recommend the app for serious investors & traders..Version: 4.2.0
✓ AvisUn des meilleurs sites de suivi des titres en ligne Bravo pour le graphisme et la précision.Version: 10.1.0
✓ Simple and fastThis is how I check my stocks performance day to day. A ton of information, great international support, and a simple yet helpful portfolio holdings view. All we need is broker costs to be included in overall gain calculation..Version: 3.17.0
✓ Day to day, keeping stockThis is a great app for day to day use, on your mobile device, especially iPad. You could use it for serious research as well, but most of us already have that base covered. It has made me plenty of money by just checking the market and the portfolio..Version: 6.11.1
✓ Great ServiceI am not a person who can see above what’s around the next stock, or my typing skills for that matter. We will not even get me started with my grammar for God sake. I have really enjoyed the information that has truly helped me with my stocks, some good some not so. I am not in the best place to give an opinion as to how much it has helped me individually, I’m not that good so what I can tell you is that without the service that I have received is spot on! I have never been so happy with the all the time, and service I have received. All I can say is this is this, if you have it keep it, if you don’t have it get it as soon as possible you won’t be sorry, and last but not least, everything on the bigger picture it will not let you down. “Sis C”.Version: 6.5.0
✓ High qualitySnappy and intuitive to use . I wish they had alerts for Australian stocks show up as banners on home screen when not using this app and/ or could trade US stocks through Yahoo from Australia..Version: 7.9.0
✓ Very GoodFor someone like me who invests in dollar averaging etfs and who likes to keep a loose eye on the markets I think yahoo finance is very good.Version: 6.13.0
✓ Yahoo financeThe data is spot on and the notifications are leading edge news. Often immediately after the event had happened and on a number of occasions information. On what is thought to happen . Generally being correct a few hours or days later..Version: 7.14.1
✓ Yahoo Finance Corp & ConglomerateThe best money earner ever love using the app. Easy to learn and operate a friendly touch and at the forefront of financial news and marketing..Version: 9.0.3
✓ Trading historyCan you please show trading history by date. Currently it shows randomly. Would like to see latest trade at top and u can scroll down to see the previous ones..Version: 9.7.0
✓ Useful info and newsOnly problem : Can’t expand pictures /charts in news articles, so you can’t read the smaller text items..Version: 9.11.0
✓ All I oneAll the UDATED news, information and recommendations you need on your stock watchlist. Costs easy to enter and lists easy to organise. CNBC is out. Can’t add cost and shares bought. News are weeks old. Analysts are absent or useless. Important indexes such as HSI or Shanghai have been replaced by insignificant ones such as KOSPI or ASX on the front news page..Version: 9.18.0
✓ Yahoo FinanceNot bad. A lot more offered than any app I've tried. Just to keep up with what's going on and why. Other apps just gave data but no news. Found out about this app online, in an article about what apps seem best now that the stocks app that use to come pre installed on IPad no longer offered..Version: 3.14.1
✓ New ZealandAll the best from New Zealand Your app and the professional team you have is second to none we are very blessed to be able to track our stocks and learn lots from your excellent team Mark and Colleen from NZ👍.Version: 8.0.0
✓ Notifications problemMaybe due to an iPhone software update but pressing notifications does not work until you look in news, and then you can view.Version: 8.5.0
✓ Excellent for keeping trackOf share price changes via the widget. Easy to use and because you can add actual holdings it’s a great source for quick, real time updates across your portfolio..Version: 9.9.0
✓ PeterStock market tracking and share alerts are handy but the news articles are just rubbish or advertising.Version: 9.6.0
✓ RecommendThis app allows me to track my portfolios both local and international. It’s very easy to set currency for each portfolios. Easy to navigate..Version: 9.8.1
✓ Website of FinanceI love it..Version: 8.11.0
✓ Needs TweaksReally useful app with a couple of annoyances. On phones, screen is too narrow to waste on fixed columns. 1. Needs the ability to reduce column widths, especially symbol column. 2. Need to be able to switch off colour indicators. 3. Needs ability to set preferred default view. On phone, I want “Details” to be default, but it keeps reverting back..Version: 3.33.0
✓ InfoIdeal site very educative and helpful information across the bored. Except not possible to price the options.?? Some companies are out of coverage?? Always reliable source of business information USA options are great but EU not available will be a useful add indeed Thanks ❤️❤️❤️🥃🥃🥃.Version: 9.21.0
✓ Yahoo FinanceFor a free app this quite good. Perhaps I should have given 5 stars based on that. It has the basics for financial advice and I stress that part so I would recommend that you do your due diligence before committing to a share purchase. For a quick check and lookup, this app is good. If you buy shares this app will allow you to watch their progress..Version: 8.0.0
✓ FeedbackLove the app. But why is there not live updates in prices from the ASX. It seems to lag by about 20 mins. Also can we have commodities prices for Iron Ore, coal and gas. Thx..Version: 8.3.1
✓ This app used to be outstanding…Mid February 2022 - This app used to be outstanding on the iPad… Now I’m ditching it. The recent changes have destroyed the ‘all on display’ functionality..Version: 9.3.0
✓ Useful appOverall pretty decent app, but can you put back the actual price of the stock during pre market and after hours instead of just displaying the change. It was a lot easier to view the info before..Version: 9.25.0
✓ Love this app, but...UPDATE 1/17: Looks like the Holdings section is back, so I once again give the app 5 stars. I really do love this app and would give it 5 stars, but all of a sudden my linked holdings account no longer appears at the top above my stock symbols list. I have closed the app. Rebooted my phone. Deleted and reinstalled the app then rebooted my phone and nothing works. This morning I opened the app saw my holdings were back, but before I could get excited, the holdings disappeared once again. Not sure what is going on but until my holdings are permanently showing on my screen once again the app is useless to me. If this can be fixed I would gladly give it 5 stars once again..Version: 7.14.4
✓ Feature Request: Holdings ChartGreat app and very user friendly. Would be perfect if it shows a chart of total holdings over time a la Robinhood, and for individual stocks in your holding. Thanks!.Version: 7.6.1
✓ Very useful appVery usable, great to keep up with real time changes to portfolio and watch lists.Version: 8.8.1
✓ Quick and easy to useI’ve used this for many years. I like it for easy access, availability of over night market graphs and I always look at the news. It is reliable and has a simply format with other good functionality..Version: 9.24.0
✓ Problems when using other currencyWhen your profile is set not in Dollars as a default currency, then in a single stock page, under Holdings it shows complete nonsense.. the currency symbol is the one you chose for your profile, but numbers/amount is in dollars! This issue is in existence for so long, got tired of waiting for it to be fixed, hope this feedback will lead to fix this bug. Not sure how QA is testing it, as it's so clearly missed all the time for the last 2-3 years on this app. Would be good a bit more support and quality for other markets and currencies..Version: 8.8.0
✓ New update widget issuesGreat app! New update seems to have destroyed the widget function however. Any help would be great.Version: 10.2.0
✓ Amazing appYahoo Finance is simply an amazing app, I have used a handful of apps for stocks and market scans, the others don’t even come close to matching Yahoo Finance in quality. Hats off to the team that designed and built this app!.Version: 6.9.1
✓ Bad Changes to Important DataThank you for the response. I’m happy you at least responded. But you said you “are trying to figure out how to incorporate price & %” Guess my question is why do you have to figure it out when you already had it on old version? You had it perfect & had it figured out; but changed it for the worse. Bottom line, I’m glad you responded & sincerely HOPE you actually DO take it seriously & change it back ASAP! I won’t use (and I know many others that feel the same) until it’s corrected. Thanks again & I hope you return the POINTS along with % soon. Thank you!! You changed the “points” the Dow, S&P, etc from the main page at the top. Only listing the % up or down & NOT the POINTS up or down. WHY would you take that away?? You made an update , but TOOK AWAY data!? Financial Professionals use Yahoo finance app to see certain data at a glance. You subtracted data!!! Does that make sense? Don’t let programmers change things that your audience wants & needs! Your app used to be better than CNBC, now it’s worse. I will only use CNBC app going forward unless you change and bring back the +/- points. In case you don’t realize what you changed, it used to show -10% AND -200 points. Now, only the %. Bring the points AND the % back..Version: 6.4.0
✓ What's the fuss about, it's Great!I downloaded it earlier today to replace older version on my iPhone. It's full of data and all pretty easy to access on my device. You can watch indices from Asia, Europe & USA, Bond Prices & Yields, Currency movements, Commodity Prices for Gold, Oil Brent Crude, Soy, Wheat, etc. The App lets you create, edit, replace or rename your portfolio, gives you individual company's share data, financials & ratios, price action with graphic display, obtain quotes on stocks and so much more. It lets you read or watch financial news on CNBC or Reuters. Pretty sophisticated at no cost to the user! Bravo Yahoo..Version: 3.42.0
✓ Best source for finance newsMy finance teacher circa 2016 (the year I laughed at my barber telling me to buy Eth for .99) told me I should get a watchlist started on yahoo finance. Boy do I wish I believed in my convictions of that watchlist. From Snapchat to Chegg and many others I knew from watching people around me must have some value greater than 2-10 bucks a share and laughable market cap by today’s PE giants. The team is as unbiased a news source as I’ve seen. They talk real metics of valuation and the guest list is phenomenal because they put the time in to ask these folks to come chat. Way better than any of the eternally biased other big name networks..Version: 8.5.0
✓ Best App for Financial NewsIt has best UI so far i have seen, usually financial app are old looking and sluggish but this app takes UI experience to next level. Would love to have premium option so I don’t have to see ads. Regardless best app i have seen. Love it and would greatly recommend..Version: 7.14.5
✓ Font sizeI like the older font size before the update..Version: 10.2.0
✓ Extended hour chart?Is it possible to get extended hours chart on the detail view? And is it possible to have a toggle to turn on extended hours for all items instead toggle on one by one in the extended chart view?.Version: 10.2.0
✓ Great app but sneaky gotchaThis was a 2- star review I placed a few days ago: “The widget doesn’t refresh when you open it. Also the app doesn’t open when you tap the widget. Nothing happens. Frustrating and annoying.” Today I have realised that when you scroll widgets, they move and can be partially covered by other widgets. An overlap may not be easily noticeable but if it’s there, the widget does not refresh or open the app. So you get the situation I criticised above. Scroll the widgets to get them separated and all’s well. Have changed my score back to 5-star..Version: 9.31.0
✓ Great Financial AppThis app can track all types of markets. Really good app..Version: 7.14.3
✓ Very pretty and very usableThe trouble with many finance apps, no matter how hard they try, is they lack a certain “polish”. Then, the apps that do have polish don’t get very far in telling you about finance. This app does both, and is an absolute pleasure to use..Version: 7.4.0
✓ Simple and great UILove this finance app. The ui is really good and simple. I noticed few downside. It doesn’t show linked portfolio in mobile and ipad app. There is no way to update portfolio holding data in mobile and ipad app..Version: 8.7.0
✓ Good appThis app now works well. You can set up several portfolios which update quickly. You can read and post comments, there is a daily TV show on the markets and well sorted relevant articles on the stocks in your portfolios..Version: 8.0.0
✓ Just ok. But it looks greatIn addition to my previous review, I think it’s fair to say, that despite how much I dislike this app, It is in fact the best one available at the time of this writing. I’ve tried every other one. So while I really do wish it was sorted out, it also significantly better than ALL of the others. With that I have to bump it up an additional star to 4 stars. Don’t waste your time looking checking the others. — When you add in your holdings every time you create a list, it’s treated as other holdings. So if you organize by industry, like energy, biotech etc.. and you then have a list for all of your holdings, 1000 shares of stock a Your energy list, becomes 2000 shares in your holdings list because you have stock a in two list 1000 shares each. I definitely will not link to my brokerage account because yahoo, Verizon...Version: 8.2.0
✓ Decent, Could Be BetterI generally enjoy using Finance. I love its design and the content, but the functionality is just overbearingly poor at times. One can only love an app so much until its practicability becomes detrimental to the user. Among the app’s abilities is the quintessential feature of portfolio tracking. There are two ways to begin tracking your portfolio, either manually or by linking your brokerage. At first thought — I had found a panacea — an app that could solve my task of portfolio tracking along with decent news. The only problem that I have with their portfolio tracking, through the linked brokerage, is that my portfolio is inaccurately represented. The money in my account is noticeably off balance and fails to display my actual balance. The point of a portfolio is to track your assets, which this app fails to do accurately. That is my only complaint regarding the app and I hope my commentary is useful to interested users. 4/5. Decent app..Version: 4.3.0
✓ One of the bestI tried similar apps, but found yahoo finance suited my needs best. I submitted some suggestions to improve it, but the one feature which I found lacking in the app is the ability to edit the indices on the scrolling band at the top of the home page. To be able to add, remove and change position of any of those indices would enable the user to cluster the favourite indices on one page so they can be seen at a glance without constantly having to scroll back and forth. Four stars for the lack of this feature, otherwise it would’ve been five..Version: 4.1.0
✓ Great AppGreat app for anyone buying and selling shares. The big disadvantage is the 15 minute price delay. When markets are volatile the delay is a big disadvantage. Overall though it is a great help to manage and develop my portfolio. The news feeds and analysis are really helpful..Version: 7.0.1
✓ Perfect and freeLove all these features: chart, essential details, option list, news, even comment section..Version: 8.10.0
✓ Needs more filters to find TSX stocksThe app is great for NYSX but for someone like me who is looking for strictly TSX stocks, the app has no filter or screener for any specific search and under markets it does not let you choose which stock exchange you are under. Hopefully they add this soon..Version: 7.9.0
✓ Missing some featuresOverall great. But it would be great if you put in a purchase date in portfolio it allowed you to pick a price rather than just a blank cell..Version: 8.9.1
✓ Clear, concise, and completely comprehensiveI have been using yahoo finance as one of my trading evaluation tools for over 15 years. What I respect and enjoy about the site is it’s simplicity and ability for me to list and segment my various portfolios. The design and development team appears to be very active as they have updates and have incorporated several new, valuable features this year. I know there are several much more sophisticated and advanced platforms to choose from. However, any successful investor not only has a trading plan, but executes with as much simplicity and clarity as possible, yahoo finance provides that structure and outline..Version: 9.21.0
✓ Major likes and a couple items To Do Better.Hello: First and Foremost thanks for the great financial app. You are my home page for over a decade now, so that should tell you I kind of like you. we do need to discuss a couple things. The “news stories “ that are just subscription demands are a real downer. They are NOT demands from Yahoo, but from the authoring company of the story. You really do need to require those to disclose we will learn nothing more by clicking on the story. I cannot imagine anyone giving them money after such a mean trick, anyway. I realize these are not Yahoo’s ads, but it IS your site and you can require disclosure or cessation. I was going to say something about stock comments. But we have all pretty much got used to the rules and do not run afoul of the monitoring program very often. And as I am teaching young nephews about stocks, I thank you yet again for making the talk much more family oriented! Really when one thinks of all the content, the fact there is but one irritant says a LOT positive about Yahoo’s Financial Section! UPDATE: When a giant firm like Yahoo takes the time to read and respond to a review , that says they have not forgotten who creates their business ! It also earns that fifth star!.Version: 9.24.0
✓ Up to dateI like this site as the financial information is up to date and accurate. I find it a good way to see how the main markets are moving . Also tracking individual share prices Improving all the time . The new red/blue graphics on graphs are easy to read.Version: 6.3.0
✓ The best finance app ever. 1 suggestion/requestI just love yahoo finance. It is the best finance app, which is the know fact. I love it, use it, rely on it, read news from it, have my own portfolio on it. But I have one request. Please, I would live if you could make the graph more easily workable. Now when i click on the graph to check the prices of the stock in last couple days or week. It opens up a new page and then it is not very handy. Difficult to operate. This is the only part that I love of the ios Stocks app. Their graphs are very very handy and easy to work with. If at yahoo finance you could do the same, that would be just amazing and i will not have to go back to the ios stocks app for it. Currently i use the ios stocks app to move and see the rates of the stock on the graph, for everything else I use yahoo finance. Hoping you guys read the request and work it. I still gave 5 stars as i love yahoo finance, it is really really good with all the info and details. Just if you can fix this part, it will be a slam dunk..Version: 4.10.0
✓ Good appNicely done app, good charts, you can access pretty much all the data that’s on the website. It also doesn’t have the silly politicised news popping up where it isn’t wanted (which is why I deleted the default apple stocks app).Version: 8.8.0
✓ Don’t get too big for your shortsYahoo finance is a great new aggregator. But it is just that. When I click on a morningstar story, don’t tell me that I have to subscribe to yahoo premium to read it. I understand that you guys are trying to become more than just a news feed and find new revenue streams, but your playing in an arena that you are highly outgunned. Though I admire the shift in corporate budgeting and strategy, I feel that you will drive away people who just liked your app for the news, like myself. Find a better way to monetize than blocking public articles to incumbent users. Don’t alienate, extricate, extricate and monetize..Version: 7.9.0
✓ Great appLive updates and seeing your units grow couldn’t be easier!.Version: 9.30.0
✓ Decimal PointsI so wish some time is spent on getting the decimal point correct on values , cost , percentage changes etc Eg BaE is being shown as 104% increase when in fact it’s a 10.4% change And so on … Everything else is A1 and very useful and wouldn’t know what to do if Yahoo Portfolio wasn’t available !.Version: 9.28.0
✓ OmgI had been a user of this app for a year or more and a feature I loved dropped off I contacted the programmer and they not only apologised they returned the feature and better yet personally advised me it had been updated all within two weeks Best ever experience with an app.Version: 3.40.0
✓ Good service, average appClunky app. Why, when I tap a news story, does an unrelated video start playing at the top of the news article, delaying or even sometimes prevent the loading of the actual story itself? Who thought that was a good idea?.Version: 5.3.0
✓ Best FREE financial app hands down!!!The title says it all...best watch lists...amazingly fast real time quotes and with real tick charts.... no other app that isn't part of some brokerages in house program comes close to this... thank you Yahoo.Version: 8.1.1
✓ Recent updates have decreased functionalityI have used Yahoo Finance for over 5 years on my iPad for my Watchlist. Then I would rate it 4 to 5 stars consistently until the past month or so. For a Homepage, it should be a summary of the market indices and the Watchlist in spreadsheet form where I can quickly scan 30 to 40 stocks at a time which Yahoo Finance used to do. Then a week or so ago, the market indices would disappear when I would tap My Watchlist to see in spreadsheet form. Now I have the market indices, but my Watchlist is in a single column where I have to scroll down for 2 minutes to review some 200 stocks on my list. Before I could glance at the spreadsheet form and the blinking of the red and green tags of prices updating would give me some sense of how actively the stock is being traded. Then I could quickly tap on that stock for more detail. I cannot be constantly scrolling a single column list, and is nonsensical to get a feel of the market. Bring back the older interface. If you need to improve it, have the market indices row stay frozen while I can scroll a few times only to scan my entire watchlist. Give the user the ability to move or group our stocks in a certain order. Right now older inputted stocks are at the bottom and newer ones at the top. I would like to group certain stocks scattered throughout my list together without having to form another watchlist. That is all I have to say right now. Improve functionality..Version: 6.13.0
✓ Great stock trackerI’ve used this app for a couple of years and access it several times a day to track multiple portfolios… a few tricks but great once you get familiar with it you’ll find you’re a little addicted Couple of things that would make it better… 1 the ability to group multiple portfolios for total and gain/loss purposes. 2 an easier way to import. Currently I find it easier to manually enter any purchases and then cross check that everything is in sync 3 be able to handle day totals better. For example my AU day total for today (Monday) still includes my US day total (eg Friday). This is why point one would be nice that I can group portfolios at least by $ type.Version: 8.8.1
✓ Good appLike it, it is a good app. It can be better if it can update my news region every time I change my watch list..Version: 8.3.1
✓ Every dayI go to Yahoo every day and I rate it a 9 out of 10..Version: 9.16.2
✓ Transactions.Great information but wish it was much better at tracking transactions. Although you can add lots held and purchase price, no sensible way to record sales that I have seen..Version: 8.8.2
✓ Yahoo Web Site ReviewHave been using this website for several years. Very good source of stock research info. I do like to skim read the latest posts for current info about a stock. Also helps measure investor sentiment for a specific stock . I do find though that the post tab can be frozen for several hours at a time. I also use the news tab to see what is causing a big move in a stock. There can be a significant lag though. An example today is that all uranium stocks jumped on news the the government wants to stop buying uranium from Russia. That news is not yet available..Version: 9.10.0
✓ Great looking app but does not workThe app looks amazing and offers the potential to be everything that I need to manage my portfolios...but it simply doesn't work. The app produces different data to the desktop version. For example 'Market Value' does not reflect shares x price. Nor does it update. It's broken. Also, while the app allows for non USD portfolios it appears to simply apply a foreign current reference (e.g NZ$) to a USD amount. It's pretty basic. Come on Yahoo. This could be an amazing app but it's busted. Please fix..Version: 3.6.1
✓ ColoursWant the colour back.Version: 10.0.0
✓ ExcellentFantastic app. Lots of features. Very thought through and helpful. For both occasional and more advanced users. I use it on my mobile on daily basis. I find this one the best without any doubts. I’d definitely recommend this product..Version: 4.8.0
✓ Great App, But An Issue AroseI have been using this app for years and been very happy with it. Unfortunately, I’ve encountered a problem with it. I used to use the “home’ screen with stock market quotes, gold, silver, oil, foreign currencies, etc on the top of the screen and my stock watch list below the Home Screen indicators. Now I can’t seem to get both working at the same time. I want to see the my ‘basic’ holdings and the ‘home’ screen indicators at the same time. Has the app been updated or am I doing something wrong? Appreciate your help..Version: 9.4.0
✓ Terrible new update, just got slapped with a wall of textI love you guys. Your whole dev team, and I’ve been a fan of this app&data for a decade plus. But… The new update is painful for me visually, and is probably my least favorite update ever. It’s a wall of text, that’s impossible to scan in the same way that the more pronounced colors/boxes enabled. It’s much less compact, and the new fonts, visuals, and spacing are all just harder to read, especially after hours where you end up with 3 rows of tiny text next to a ticker price. This is not shock/awe due to a new UI..Version: 10.0.0
✓ Temps reel + Date ex-dividendeJ’adore l’ajout des cours en temps réel pour la bourse canadienne. Commentaire constructif: Il serait intéressant que la date ex-dividende soit indiquée dans les statistiques clés!.Version: 7.9.0
✓ Too many changesWhy did you change the main summary view?.Version: 3.34.0
✓ Column sort would be usefulThis has been my go to app for several years. I would love it if I could sort columns from high to low so I could quickly see the days stars and dogs. The icons at the top are useful, but I would love to know how to change/organize them..Version: 3.15.0
✓ Great app w some bugsGreat app. Please fix some obvious bugs. 1) calculated stock total value is different from the holdings view vs individual stock view, the individual stock view doesn’t calculate/track sold off stocks ( negative quantity), but rather ignores them as shorts. Totals are inconsistent, annoying. 2) when scrolling up the list, the bounce feature when list hits the top goes bizarre and jitters. It’s nauseating. Seems to happen when scrolling up slowly. Scrolling up fast works fine. It may be a refresh view related error of some sort. Doesn’t happen every time, but frequently. 3) Suggestion, not a bug. The new font is bad. Seems every thing is emboldened now, makes it difficult to read as the letters are less defined. 4) suggestion. Allow side swipe from a stock view to permit scrolling to next stock on the list. It’s more intuitive that side swiping is to see the next list item rather than more detailed info, like on dating apps. 5) suggestions. Make a dividend payout feature. Since you already have the purchase date and number of shares info. This should be a simple feature. And it increases user engagement to input their stock positions. 6) suggestions. Allow for users to exclude some stock lists from the total holdings info. I’d like to see what my total holdings positions is with and without including my retirement account positions, for example..Version: 7.14.3
✓ Version 10.0 GUI not clearLatest interface is a downgrade. Key information does not stand out like it did before. It’s nice and clean, but everything just blends into the background..Version: 10.0.0
✓ Great appIn my opinion this is the best finance app for news, the reports are straightforward and easy to understand, I also really enjoyed the watch list feature only showing you news relevant to your stock interests..Version: 4.1.0
✓ Needs improvementNews blips that get posted on the lock screen very rarely go to a news story when I open my iPhone by sliding the notification. This is a serious failure in the app implementation. Moreover when I go to the news feed list, the notified headline is rarely on the list. I think many of the news stories are useful but the navigation has severe flaws that could be easily fixed. Get the geek squad busy Yahoo! ********* Later: I’m using the app a lot to look at stocks and options information. I really wish it supported landscape mode for iPhone cuz it would be easier to scrutinize the spreadsheets for options prices. ******** Later: UI improved. The data feed can be flaky eg Details view sometimes doesn’t get the options information and the options link is not displayed. I would like to see an auto update for the options data. It doesn’t appear to be implemented at this time. Later…. Still quite buggy. Useful info and such..Version: 9.26.0
✓ Track sells?I LOVE this app, there’s only one thing that’s missing or I can’t figure out - how do I add my SELLs in my lots? I can add my BUYs just fine but what about when I sell a stock? I tried adding a negative quantity but that tracks it as a SHORT and it does reduce my quantity of a stock in the overview. I could just modify my lot to match my current qty and avg price but I want to see the profits I made from my sells individually. Also would be cool to make it support Crypto a bit better - allow for more decimal spaces in the qty and price when entering a lot. Also add a field for fees and maybe a small “Note” field. Otherwise this is the best finance app out there, Yahoo’s saving grace these days..Version: 9.0.3
✓ Good source of informationAs we know today our sources of information are bias and misleading however if you’re not here for headlines you can learn a great deal. Every article has numerous links so you can keep learning.Version: 9.6.0
✓ Don’t likeI prefer using the website. This app is limited and yahoo now disabled web access of yahoo finance. Can’t use my own created view; this app option is only basic or detailed. Can’t switch to landscape mode....Version: 3.17.0
✓ 5 starGreat platform to track your investment ..love it.Version: 8.11.0
✓ Get with the programme!!!Useless!!”” Innaccurate & a waste of time!!👎🏽 Why do you even bother showing the All Ords Index or the ASX 200??! Out of date and a complete waste of time Why can’t it be “live”????.Version: 7.2.1
✓ ExcellentGreat app. Always reliable..Version: 9.3.0
✓ Great App but needs a couple of more featuresA way to mark a stock as sold is strongly needed in the app. Its impossible to track actual portfolio performance is you can track the money that was lost or earned each time a stock is sold. The total percentage becomes irrelevant. Also (small but important): The previous way to hide the total number WAS MUCH BETTER BEFORE. It’s was super useful to just click on the total amount of the portfolio and have the numbers change to dots. Now it’s harder to click on the new eye button and also it shrinks the screen. Please bring that functionality back.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Thank goodness everyoneThank to take care of yahoo.Version: 3.29.0
✓ Best app to track overall portfolioI love this app as the easiest way to track my entire portfolio which works across all my devices. In the future I’d love to see more widgets for use on my homescreen and I’d love to see some sort of paid version so I can remove the ads. Thanks!.Version: 9.0.0
✓ Good but needs improvementsDear Yahoo Finance, I’ve been using your app for over a year, and while I love much of the Ui and the community on there, I’m surprised that in over a year, you haven’t updated the app to capitalize of the surging interest and growing amount of people getting into the stock market. Issue #1: there should be an increase focus on conversations and user interactions. How come I don’t get a notification when someone replies to my comment? How come it took me almost a year to finally figure out how to see my own user activity?? It took me a year to find out that I had to go in conversations, then as the bottom window pops up to leave a comment, I then have to tap on my user profile, AND THEN I can see all the comments I’ve made and liked, to then also be able to go back to where I commented to see if someone replied to me. This is such an unintuitive design and user experience. Can’t you see how so many user communities are being built elsewhere when yahoofinance could’ve easily been the central hub for everything? Look at your competitors, they all put a greater priority on user interactions than you do, and getting a general sense of what’s being discussed is incredibly important as we’re moving towards an age where fundamentals alone are not enough to predict the movement of a stock. Issue #2: There are a few bugs around the “conversation” section that need to be fixed. First of all, one of three times, it’s stuck “loading” infinitely, I learned that I had to hard close the app and then reload it, to then go back to the stock to then finally load the conversation... I’ve been doing this for a year now, ridiculous. Also, you need to rework your comment censoring algorithms, it is deleting way too many real organic comments and bleeping words that you guys deem inappropriate is just belittling, you should let users decide whether they care to have language censored or not, we’re all adults here. Issue #3: You have a few more design issues that need to fix, while overall it’s a beautiful app, which is why I love using it in the first place, there are a lot of functions and elements that aren’t intuitive, such as how if I want to “star” a stock so that it appears in multiple watchlists, well each time I “star” it, the menu disappears and I have to tap on the star again to open the menu... why can’t you just leave the menu open and let me dismiss it myself when I’m done adding it to my different watchlists?? Issue #4: Another design issue, but the most important one: setting Alerts... First of all, you should allow us to have alerts that don’t deleted once triggered. As an example, what if I want to know every time a strike price touches a certain price, on its way down or up? Especially when stocks are volatile, it’s going to touch certain price points multiple times, and it’s annoying that I have to go back and set the same alert again just to know if it ever reaches that price again. Also, and this is the most annoying part, after setting an alert for a stock, I can’t just immediately create a new one for the same stock, I have to close the alert menu which brings me back to my stock and then tap on the alert icon again to then be able to create another alert on the same stock. This is such bad design, because actually after you create an alert for a stock in the menu, if I tap to create a new alert right away, it asks me to search for the stock I want to create an alert for... That’s so unnecessarily tedious. So can you just imagine how tedious it is to create these alerts, only for them to maybe get cleared out and then having to come back and do it all over again? I’m getting really tired of doing all of this, I moved over from the bloomberg app over to you guys because of the nicer design and the conversation community that also has a user base that’s more mature than stocktwits, but if something else ever comes up, or if tradingview becomes more popular, I’ll naturally be moving elsewhere if none of the design elements are fixed. I took the time to write this lengthy review BECAUSE I want to keep using your app and so wish to see it get improved. I hope you’ll take it seriously and start working on not only fixing the flaws cited here, but also take an opportunity to brainstorm how to improve your user community experience, cause there’s really a lot of opportunities there..Version: 8.1.1
✓ Very helpfulYahoo Finance helps me track simple and complex purchases, trades and portfolios with real-time updates. I like the extensive charting tools and analyst reviews. I also like the news associated with each security being listed below the profile. They need to fix the bug in the chart comparisons: when you compare multiple stocks in a single chart and change the time period (1M, YTD, etc) the compared stocks do not show the latest trade price while the referenced stock does. This renders the comparison worthless because it is not a fair comparison. Beyond that, I wish I could move the data from one portfolio into another without having to manually re-enter. I like the phone app’s display of pre- and post-market percentage changes while in list view. It would be great be able to see charts of the prices in these sessions. Over all, a very helpful tool!.Version: 7.2.1
✓ Graph feature to view the price cycles of a given stockI was enjoying to look at the stock performance graph that shows how the price changed Day to Day by sweeping my finger from past dates to present and watching the stock value change. This provides us the minimum to maximum values in a given period. But this feature disappeared and I cannot track the changes in values. Please reinstate that feature. That feature is invoked when I hold my iPhone at 90 degrees where the long sides are in the horizontal direction. That would be a big help to enjoy the viewing of a stock performance for a given period in a graph form. Thanks.Version: 4.12.0
✓ InvestingPretty good app works pretty good could use a little tweaking giving more updates and more up-to-date news that’s happening now on companies instead of having to look somewhere else to get it otherwise you miss out on the news and what’s going on around the world US and can cost investors a whole Lotta money because they missed out on a small piece of information that you did not provide I wish you could just provide that little extra information instead of finding out secondhand the next day later thank you for your understanding.Version: 8.11.0
✓ It’s easy to useI like this app I’m able to follow my shares and follow the shares I’m thinking of buying. It’s easy to use and it gives a lot of news which is helpful also it lets you know when the results are due. It’s my 3rd favourite app on my phone.Version: 8.8.0
