User Reviews

Users praise the app for providing essential FRED data and graphs on mobile, plus useful blog content. However, recurring issues include unreadable/cropped graphs, frequent crashes, login/verification problems, buggy search, and a clunky UI that doesn’t adapt well to different screens. Overall, the data is valued, but the app needs major stability and UI/UX improvements.

Pros

Easy access to FRED data on iPhone for quick econ discussions.
The app centers around the data and graphs users rely on; data and visualizations are the core value.
Blog posts and related content add value and are interesting components.
Underlying FRED data is strong and valuable, making the app worthwhile for data needs.

Cons

Graphs and charts are unreadable or cropped, appear miniscule, and can be off-screen or cut off in portrait/landscape views.
The app is unstable, crashing frequently (especially when comparing graphs) and feels unreliable.
Login and account verification issues (e.g., Apple sign-in failures, Bad Request errors) hinder access.
The search functionality is buggy or non-functional, making data discovery difficult.
Poor UI/UX and responsiveness: small text, non-adaptive layout, and generally outdated design.

Recent reviews

The app is non functional, viewing graphs you would think would be the main benefit, but it’s very broken experience. This is just web slop or react native shoved in an app.

Graph Images are cropped, making it impossible to use for months. Never used to be like this.

Very excited to use this app. Had no idea that Fred put this together. However, the graph images are being cropped so only the top half is visable. This affects the image no matter, so when saving a photo it only saves the top half of the graph. Once this is resolved, I look forward to changing my rating to five stars.
