Stock Wars - Virtual Investing App Reviews

It is a great! App I love it the only thing is that it would be much better if you could make trading groups or a friend list because my friends and I want to compete to see who can win also at least make it so when you star a friend it stays for more that 3minutes its probably a glitch I understand but it would be awesome if it was fixed

Dont waste your time this app got ruined by Apple!!

If your looking to understand the real world stock market then this is the game for

This app was great, but it doesnt recognize stock splits. I invested in Nike a while ago and had over a 45% return. Then Nike did a 2-1 stock split and now I have a ~40% loss!! Stock splits are basic. Fix this ASAP!!!

Great app, but it needs stock splits.

Its fun! No adds now!

I cant even open up the game before it crashes

In the app, I got a notification asking me whether I wanted to allow Stock Wars to access Twitter. I tried pressing "Allow", and now I cant even get into app. It just crashes every time I try. I shouldve just pushed "Dont Allow", and I wish I had known to do that. If I had known, maybe the app would still be working fine. The app seemed to work fine until this happened, and I would like to get back into it without losing my investments. Please fix it.

Main problem: when buying a Mutual Fund, youre buying at yesterdays price. Stock splits skew your performance. NKE split and it said I lost 48%, didnt increase my share quantity. Dividends and Cap gains are not paid out on time, if at all. And $10 commission? Cmon, who pays $10/trade?

Crashes whenever I open the app and it asks me to rate it on the app store. unplayable

Loved this app but i hace time that i cant open the app and i cant even see how i have done have 2 years playing :////

The way stock splits are handled is annoying. It takes too much time. Otherwise, nice and easy way to teach the stock market or track stocks.

Im so glad an app like this exists. I have a few things I would like to see in a future update: 1)as far as I know, currently theres no way to delete/remove companies on my watch list. I want to be able remove companies. 2) In addition to Tweets, I would like to see Google or Yahoo finance news+stats 3) incentives to play--I forgot I had this app for months. I would like the option to receive push notifications that say, for example, SKS price just went down, its a good time to buy up some shares. Also, the colors of the app are stereotypical "boy colors" Not only is the green against the black an eyesore, from a marketing standpoint, if you used more neutral colors it would appeal to more people.

Im really disappointed in this app and the developer. They havent updated it since 2013, so it has lots of issues. I personally felt compelled to write when Acadia Pharm stock went up almost 150% within the last week or two because of a stock split. I had made approx. $15k in a day. However, this app did not recognize the pricing so when I sold the stock high it registered it at the same price as bought, both at a price that wasnt even shown in the app as the current stock price! Some stocks wont even refresh! You can see this by viewing the charts and noticing some stocks have frequent gaps in price line. Not to mention the frequent crashing. I was so happy that this app was available, I tried a couple others but this is best. It was simple to navigate and read (small learning curve), more so than the other apps. But after not been given what was rightly mine, even after having this happen several times again (several $1200k gains were registered as $100 gains, or even as a complete $1200k loss!) I decided the delete my account. Emails were sent to the developer with no response. Avoid this app if you take stocks seriously. If you see the stocks as a lark and dont care about gains/losses, then give it a try. Dont bother to try and get to top leaderboards… something seems sketchy about how most got there.

Getting a feel for the market with this app and sensing the possibilities to discover quick returns. Much thanks to the author.

Super laggy, needs to be updated. Ads are very distracting. I want to use this app a lot more but the interface just isnt friendly enough

This app is awesome. A great way for people too broke to actually play the market to still get some of the action. However, the app crashes every 5 minutes or so. Really wish we could get an update to fix this issue. Hell, thats what is holding me back from upgrading. iOS ver. 9.2.1 iPhone 6 Verizon network

The game is no longer works !! App crashes at open

I love this app a lot and it has been very good for practice in the markets which is the purpose I assume it seeks to serve. The only downside is the inability to buy short on a stock. Being able to buy short would get the app to five stars for me for sure!

I dont like it. Do you have to buy tokens?
