User Reviews

Reviews praise the app for its intuitive, easy-to-use UI and the ability to quickly monitor and trade your portfolio, especially on mobile. However, recurring problems include reliability issues (downtime and poor synchronization), unclear portfolio metrics (returns and tickers), and weak customer support. Overall, it shows potential for active traders but stability and feature gaps hinder usability.
Pros
  • Intuitive and easy-to-use interface
  • Quick, simple portfolio monitoring and trading
  • Strong mobile experience for on-the-go access
Cons
  • Frequent reliability issues including app downtime and syncing problems
  • Poor portfolio visibility and metrics (difficulty viewing returns and ticker movements)
  • Weak customer support and slow or unresponsive follow-up

Intuitive, very best

Having a standard bank online share trading account is a waste. It’s unnecessarily expensive (R110 a month), they charge you over R100 for every trade, and you can’t easily see a long list of your previous transactions without needing to click multiple times to get the dates right. I’m more a fan of easy equities for my investing needs. I guess this is worth it if you’re an active trader because then the fee is less (I think). They also have a decent educational and analysis resources.
