Doesn’t update
The app continues to advise dividend payments for securities that were sold a while back. Very frustrating. Emailed customer support. No response. Not worth the money. Won’t renew

Crash
Too simple
DANGEROUSLY INACCURATE
miscalculates total profit. double counts transferred assets. GUI regressions in each release. no expense ratio. NEW: logging broken
Not good for manual imports
The two main issues I’m having with this:
1) With newer IPOs there’s seemingly an issue with the app detecting the correct ticker. This seems to especially be true with recycled tickers which are more common than you’d think. Reaching out to support they basically gave me the instructions for swapping a holding which I already explained to them I did those steps and it’s still not showing the right holding.
2) importing functionality needs a lot of work. With all the data breaches going on I don’t want to link my brokerages directly. I’d prefer to download a CSV and upload it so I can protect my account info. The spreadsheet they provide makes it to where it’s a royal PITA because it’s almost like they’ve never downloaded files from brokerages before and the way they want the headings and fields structured makes for a lot of work. For example my brokerage typed out the event You bought xyz. You sold xyz. Those are fine but then I also have events where I received dividends. That’s fine too but what about reinvestments? I guess that’s considered a buy? It just seems like they need more experience with what’s these look like and how you could make this process have less friction.
