Investing.com: Stock Market Reviews

by FriscoCFP

I read about Investingcom a few times before downloading. At first glance it has a lot of neat ways to do things. Within a couple days you’ll pay more for “pro level” and to upgrade to “ad-free” version.
I don’t know from there because neither purchase enabled the desired function. I immediately submitted a service request. I have have received two emails in 32-days. One was the generic automated response promising faster priority service for “pro” users. The second was to ask what I needed. I was instantly angry because I submitted a detailed request so that we could begin working on the problem right away. I answered her email and explained I was really needed to get this fixed because I bought it to do a few specific things.
DO NOT BUY Investingcom UNTIL THERE ARE MANY SHORT TERM POSITIVE REVIEWS. If you do have an issue, remember that I warned you.

If you trade any security like a SPAC that starts out as units and then splits into common shares and warrants, do not expect that process to happen quickly. I have waited numerous times for more than 2 weeks or more to have a symbol added. I even try to accommodate how slow they are by sending them email through the feedback link to let them know ahead of time when these separations are going to happen and it still takes weeks. I would probably seek out another App if I hadn’t loaded all the securities from all the portfolios I manage into this one. It’s super frustrating- if I could rate this lower than 1 star I would.

This business is not operated in US and they charge you foreign transaction fee plus yearly subscription. Once you pay for the subscription. There is no differences compare Ad︅ version. They kept your payment information without any option to allowed you Change or delete your credit card information or give you option not to automatically renewal and I found they charged me on my credit card and I requested to cancel, they refuse to give me full refund.

No. I would not reconsider my rating. This support team and management are horrible and insist that I have agreed term for auto renewal because it was set by default by them. They collect my payment oversea and cost me additional foreign transaction fees. The support team admit they have office in US and still collect payment in Israel.
After few email communications and said it is management decision, they would not give me refund and said it has been passed two weeks although I told them I have not use their AD free version for at lease 6 months.

I have uninstalled this software entirely and never use this software again.
I do not use the software because the data is not updated on time and a lot time misleading.

Sadly I am having to edit my review from yesterday because my experience with Investingcom completely changed after creating an account. I am not able to use it at all with Voiceover. It is impossible to get past the ads. So I am now giving it 2 stars and (hopefully) deleted my account. My initial review is below.

I just discovered Investingcom earlier today, and I’m loving it so far. Let me say I very seldom write app reviews, but I wanted to take a moment to thank the developers for it being Voiceover accessible. It is a bit clunky to change information presented on the screen (switching to the technical data for example), but it is doable and certainly not a dealbreaker. I’ve only had a situation once where an ad came up and I could not get out of it so I had to close Investingcom and reopen it. Again, not a dealbreaker. I love that the values for all of the technical indicators are presented numerically. I only wish I had discovered Investingcom sooner.

Investingcom has all the real time data that I need, usually, until my contracts rollover then I have to wait or search, which is sometimes a bother. I can live with it since everything is FREE! Wish I could draw and map out my trades in app but it seems like I’m only able to load my charts and then tweak drawings from there. Can’t create a new chart and map out new drawings, but I hope that we can soon! As well as, be able to add notes to my alerts. That would be so handy since I set up multiple alerts for various possible trade plans I have in mind, and when I get an alert I sort of have to remember exactly why I set it. I do write it down but it’s a bit time consuming/inefficient. Would be really nice to see an alert pop up with my custom note to buy/sell +reasonings, or to pull up a certain chart I’ve saved, cause then I can analyze quicker and take the trade right away, ya know?

- App offers Apple login but web does not. Means you can’t log in to account on web if setup using Apple login. As Facebook and Google are well known for lack of privacy and Apple has taken a strong position on privacy protection … I will use only Apple login.
- App seems to blend holdings with a simple watchlist. I realize I can create another watch list but Investingcom seems to want to force me into adding a position.
- doesn’t seem to provide a simple method to address reinvested dividends. I suppose I could add them as a position. Easier if it was there as an option.

There is potential here… and at least they aren’t trying to force a subscription to remove ads (I’d be gone if they did). For now… I’ll have to sit on the sidelines. Not going to spend time adding holdings if I can’t log in on the web.

I downloaded Investingcom and tried it out for a bit before deciding it didn’t offer what I was looking for. It turns out the unsubscription process for their emails is suuuuuchhhh a hassle. First you have to go to their site and enter your email... so that they can send you yet another email that you click a link in to then unsubscribe. The best part is that the link in the unsubscribe email is only valid for a few minutes! So if you don’t sit there waiting for the email to come in, and miss it when it first comes through, you’ll have to do this all over again.

This kind of run around should be illegal.

by Jacksdayjob

App is okay. Nothing too exciting. Give me something like FinViz in a mobile platform. I’d get excited about that.
The worst part of Investingcom is the pop-ups. They cover the whole screen and there’s no obvious way to get out of them. I have to close Investingcom and open it again. That’s a pain. The user account itself...You have to have a login (no big deal) but along with that comes sooo many irrelevant emails. As if I didn’t already get the screen notification. Most of the emails, you get duplicates about 3 minutes apart. I have enough emailers already. This isn’t anything more that I can’t already get from Yahoo finance or the Wall Street Journal.
Just another finance app.

Just upgraded Investingcom to discover that the Alerts Feature is completely failing. The alerts are at least 25 minutes behind and are absolutely no use to me. At this point I’m not sure how Investingcom will be useful to me.

Update: tech support followed up a few days later and indicated I should completely uninstall and reinstall Investingcom . While I wanted to do that previously, Investingcom indicated I would lose my data which I relied upon so I simply kept updating Investingcom through my iPhone IOS platform. So I followed tech’s advice this time and suddenly Investingcom worked as it’s supposed to. I should note I have an account and once I logged into Investingcom my data was restored. It seems Investingcom was misleading me indicating my data would be lost if I uninstalled it. In the meantime I found another real-time stock tracking real quotes app to evaluate that offers SMS texting I’m now evaluating. Thanks for tech support for the follow-up.

Warning: comment section is unmoderated even though you can report comments. Examples:
“F Biden. Trump won. Nasdaq should've been 20k under Trump now”
“omicron is fake ,stop reacting to such fake virus which has been created by some big players and many countries has been involved in such type of virus business ,hope these scam come to an end!” -Data useful but not realtime -Ad removal pricey -Customer stock comments are generally off topic or advertising for 3rd parties.. You can report comments as spam but I don’t see any improvement. Here is a customer comment for the S&P 500 “how's all the redneck hillbillies in here doing today” Comment for US 30 “Border agents raising their voice to news reporters. Going way off script... “ “ Biden likes his hairy legs kisse kisse Biden sleeeeeeepy Joe leg more immigrants in raise taxes great job “. 6/2 comments on US 30 “arrest Dr fauci and Bill gates” “Biden's economy is a disaster” “Why Pelosi is not hugging Chinese in Chinatown?” You get the point.

This generally does what you want it to, but it really falls down hard in two areas: 1) when you click into your portfolio summary page it shows the overall value of your portfolio, but it doesn’t show the value of each position. You have to click down into the position page to see that. So on the summary page you see net profit and even leverage on the position, but not how much you actually have tied up in it. I am really curious who cares more about tracking leverage than how much they have tied up in a position. 2) you can’t edit the widget very well. I would like to have the widget expand to show me all of the quotes i care about, but it only shows three now

Investingcom is a good market info/news/resources app BUT it will not clear the red “1” notification bubble on Investingcom button on my home-screen, no matter what I do. I have checked every setting, read every screen and option, and still that little red 1 on the corner of the application button will not go away. That’s annoying and I will be deleting Investingcom to reinstall in hope that the process will clear that stupid notification bubble on Investingcom button. Otherwise, I’d give 5 stars, but annoying me with an impossible to find notification is a 2 stars deleted kind of dealbreaker. To the Developer: make clearing notifications easier!!

by MRW In WNY

Purchased upgrade and was favorite stock app until recent update. Reinstall unsuccessful. Freezes...No longer displays futures, currencies, etc. Have contacted support and await a response.

Update: Received a response within 48hrs and solved what was apparently a temporary issue. Customer service apparently still exists. Thank you.

However, It would be great to see the ticker symbol displayed adjacent to the name in watch lists. This would prevent having to leave that page to find it on occasion.

by Jrluq

I like just about everything about it - ESPECIALLY for one thing and EXCEPT for one thing.
I especially like the fact you can "Close" any transaction individually. In other words, if you buy a security several times at different prices (ie: cost averaging) and you decide to sell in lots over time, Investingcom will let you chose which transaction to sell from and then it will recalculate the average price that you are still in for. I really like this function and I have downloaded just about every other portfolio app looking for this - and, this is the ONLY one that I found.
What I really don't like is the cluttered "My Holdings" page. Just give me a good, clean summary with the ability to drill down into detail - without the clutter of all these "News" articles that are, in some cases, months old. They just seem to be there because there is space to fill up. At least make this optional. I would have given it 5 stars if it hadn't been for this.
Orherwise, great app and thanks for all of the useful data and functionality.

by Stv125

Great app , though it takes forever to load, there is one easy to solve problem that shouldn’t be the at the first place, the day is missing when stating the date , like when you are on the weekly economic calendar they mention the date but not the day . even worst when you are on “today “ events, they didn’t even state either the day or the date , so depending on where you are in the world, you don’t know if you are looking at today or yesterday or tomorrow .... what a mess !!!
Pls mention clearly the day and the date together on the economic calendar.... it causes a lot of confusion on what day am I really looking at .... this issue shouldn’t be there when it’s so easy to fix

by Bdburton

Honestly, this is a great app. I work in Finance and I love using Investingcom to stay updated on the markets when I am out of the office. It’s got some great stuff, especially the news section and calendar features. Really top of the line data that is easily accessible.

My big critique for Investingcom comes with its focus on crypto currency. I don’t mind that it has data on crypto, that is useful. My big complaint is that it focuses so much on it. There is no reason to have one of the main tabs be about crypto when the markets or currency tabs could contain the same data. The small market cap and loaded hype isn’t enough to justify the focus that they have put on this asset. Please stop following fads and give me useful data without crypto as an important asset class. Or at least give me the option to customize the tabs I can see. That would be appreciated.

by USAFSOC

Downloaded twice to give it a shot. The portfolio tab is broke. When I tap it, the search feature comes up but there is no way get out of it. No “done” button or a way to go back. I have to close Investingcom each time and restart it. Please fix so I can give it another try.

UPDATE
Thanks to the support staff for the reply back. Third time downloading it and now it appears to be working perfectly. Updated review and like Investingcom so far. Thanks for the good work.

by Diddycarter

Update: widget has been fixed. Thanks for listening. Back to 5 stats !

Can you guys please stop tinkering with the widget? Please? The new ios 14 widgets are useless. The old one was better and way more functional. But you guys keep removing it and then adding it back and then removing it again. What's going on? You guys are gonna make me stop updating Investingcom completely or find another app. This is such a great app but by removing the old widget you guys are literally making your app worse not better.

by D-W-1

I have been using Investingcom for a few years now - enjoying it very much .. & I have only to say great things about it..
I just want to say this for Investingcom maker ( whoever made the new version) that there’s a problem with the comments section- it keeps on jumping around up & down & it’s very annoying .. thanks again . Just saying it so you know & im sure you guys will fix it ( as it was before the new version & had no problems )

by Audy13452

Investingcom blew me away honestly and I’ve never written a review on anything before but I had to for Investingcom. Investingcom deserves way more attention and appreciation. It’s basically a glorified Morningstar mobile mixed with various FactSet features. It encompasses literally everything. You can really do it all with Investingcom, research, economic calendars, watchlists, screeners, alerts for price drops. Simply wonderful app. Phenomenal job!

by Paulie_From_Chicago

Careful what you post, if it’s bullish and they are leaning bearish and your comment is informative and precise they will delete it. Same applies with bearish posts, it depends on the moderators view. I’ve never posted anything that would violate any terms. However, moderators have deleted my comments. Also many many news articles are very bias as well. Basically agin leaning towards what they feel. Will I recommend it, nope. My coworkers and other trading partners all agree and have been shocked to see my comments deleted. So for that, I will be deleting Investingcom. Go download TOS and set up an account. At least the traders there are educated and don’t post ridiculous worthless information.

by AW Bugs

I loved Investingcom and used it frequently, but recently it began playing ad videos when I launched it, and even when I switched out of Investingcom to use another app, and then back... another ad video. And the ad videos cannot be stopped or skipped and they are lengthy! This is a recent change, and it makes an otherwise excellent app very frustrating to launch. I can tolerate the static ads, but launching it with a LOUD VOLUME video ad playing is causing me to search for another app to replace this one. Please get rid of the ad videos and go back to static ads, and I’ll revise my rating to 5 stars!

by Conan444

Please change the news feed back to its list format without full screen pics and videos, or give the option in settings to go back to the list format.

Loved your app precisely because its news feed screen was a list and was not filled up with whole screen pictures/videos. At least leave your mobile website alone, one can still scroll through the list-formatted news there. Thank you

by Scooter Mcgroovy

Investingcom has awesome analytic charts and indicators, along with sections of news, comments, and trend analysis info. It is hard to find an app that covers all those bases.

WHAT WOULD MAKE IT GREAT, would be to sign up, gaining access to setting notifications and such, WITHOUT having to divulge email and cell phone info to do so. As many other commenters reported, spamming of email and phone. The safety of that information is basically at nilch.

I WISH they would let you utilize all the great tools which would advance Investingcom from a good market display to a great marketing tool - by LOOSING THE SIGN UP with email and phone number. Honestly if there weren't so many complaints about the integrity of where that info goes, I would probably pay to use it. But considering the former, I wouldn't trust giving cc info at all.

So good app potential to be great.

by Pratap Paruchuru

Nice to have sticks , ETFs and crypto portfolios on one place and is very useful. Good coverage of financial news and tops for a novice like me. But the portfolio part of Investingcom is very basic. Only shoelws the ticker symbol and price or with a change of screen the profit/ loss. Prefer the Yahoo interface which way lot better which provides lot more info in the portfolio view. Hope investor. Com will update this soon. Enjoying Investingcom .

by Michaeljs28

My go to app. However, I cannot get the moving average default changes to save. Also, I would like to change my default chart to be candles, not area, but there seems to be no way to do this. The icon to change the chart settings is TOO TINY to use with my finger. It would be great if I could click on "chart" and have my custom chart come up. I even paid for Investingcom .

by Rokii77

The economic and earnings calendars are great resources. Investingcom has a better interface than web for the phone and push notifications are better than the on-website notifications. $30 or $23 (on sale) to remove ads is a bit steep. I have not pulled the trigger on that yet. I would pay $12 without thinking. Cheers and I’ll keep the ads for now.

by Yasharino

I am using Investingcom for a year and found everything I need for trading. It alerts me about important events, and has lots of good news, analysis for many international instruments. Besides one can be aware of whole economic happening which helps you decide about your economic life. Investingcom doesn’t have any bug and is easy to use.
Thanks for the team.

For those of us with iPhone X devices, there are some usability issues. It’s not just that the screen is cropped—that would be fine—there are UI elements that are out-of-place and/or just not responding to touch. I’m hoping that the next update will resolve the issues.

Updated: the most recent update resolves all the iPhone X issues! Five stars.

by Charlie Chart

If you want to track markets around the world on a real time basis and see the results graphically from minute by minute to month by month, Investingcom is the best I have found. Charts switch easily from arithmetic to log, which helps when looking at trends on a longer term point of view.
