It’s not intuitive
Brendan, I use Robinhood for my personal portfolio and IRA now. I’m setting up a solo 401k which RH doesn’t offer. Do you have a reccomendation for app with the best UI? (Fidelity is awful)
Thanks
Can i use this app in europe malta?
An advanced button would be nice to unlock a bunch of pro features. Keep snoring
Still no App available in the UK. WHY?
Has anyone noticed with the new updated app that you cannot make changes to existing orders. You can only cancel orders. The whole purpose of an app in my opinion is simplicity, speed of making transactions and convenience. Why would they leave this feature out. Going through the website on my phone to make changes to multiple orders in multiple accounts is frustrating.
Vanguard is a huge player in this hoax that is engulfing America and the world. Give all your money to somebody else. You're dealing with the devil.
I can no longer view my detailed stocks and their performances on the new app
Snoring
Such a SNORE!! Lol! Can we hope to get a rating spread for Vanguard? Love a good spreadsheet! !
I enjoyed your review of the updated Vanguard app. I agree that "boring" is usually good when investing (but your video was definitely NOT boring).
I tried to find the messaging function on this app to communicate with Vanguard or even leave a written comment, but don’t think it exists. I do not like this app.
Vanguard is my favorite for buy and hold. I detest the app. It is useless and I can’t find anything useful on there. Just today my frustration with the app hit a peak and I began to transfer all my non-index holdings to Schwab. The Schwab app is light years ahead. Vanguard app stinks for all but the most basic stuff.
Schwab needs to step up
Does anyone know where the watchlist went? Thanks
sleeping majic snoorrring away the minutes
I am interested in this app and I wasn’t snoring during this video.
Snoring. Thanks for helping me make a decision on which platform to go with. Happy New Year's. Health,wealth and prosperity!
Snoring. . 57 yo and do almost zero on the phone. Just scroll news, a bit of you tube. It's not really even a "smart" phone. It's something called a dumb smart phone. And good enough. So. I learn about who are the most secure and reliable mobile access vendors and I learn about the best laptop access vendors.
Might try one of the new savings accounts though, for kickititos. Better than absolutely zero interest.
It's on my list to switch carriers and get the plan phone, so I will be upgrading I suppose in 2022. Whatever is the latest equivalent of a dumb smart phone if my max is $99, which it TOTALLY IS.
wish you could see daily gains & losses like you can with fidelity mobile app. using the android app specifically, don't see a way to do this.
As an active trader, I hate the new app. I keep a separate phone with the old app just for trading.
