By far the most expensive platform to trade crypto that I have used. Not only do they charge a hefty fee per trade, but if you use the "instant" option for trading the percentage difference between the price of the crypto and what you are paying is the most out of any of the other platforms. They might be ok for long term trading but definitely not for high volume, even if you pay for the plus membership. Will pull my money out as soon as it's profitable, after all the fees.

Enjoying this app! I've not had any issues! App runs and operates smoothly and consistently! Just like it should. UPDATE: App consistently freezes. Absolute terrible time trying to get the app to operate. I've tried force stopping and clearing the cache. no help. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. The app then functions the way it should for a few days and back to the original issue.

This app has many hidden fees and won't tell you. For example when placing a trade they add a hidden surcharge of which they don't tell you. On top of the 0.4% (which is understandable. But there is no reason that they should hide the fact that they are charging a fee on the account I bought solana at $83.08 and they charged me about $84.40 for 1 solana and I didn't realize this till after. If you want to stay profitable do not use this app. Also the desktop download crashed twice in an hour.

The only things I would like to see improved would be abilities to change your home screen to default to your portfolio page. it would be nice to have that portfolio page also show the current price next to your average buy price with your totals all on one screen. that way you don't have to tap each one to see them. It also would be excellent if you could create a widget that would display your portfolio and or watch list.

Prices are not always accurate. The fee is tied to the purchase or sell price. It's to expensive. The charts are not fast enough. If you want to just buy and sell crypto outright, it's to darn expensive. The fees eat a lot of potential profits. The app works. If you link your bank account you can deposit fast and easy but to withdraw you have a long waiting period. You know "for security reasons"....
