Comments on MarketWatch for Android

★★★★★ David Byrd · Sep 3, 2026
Update 09/2026: Still using every day. Update 01/25/24: Great app for following financial information and commodities. I track oil prices and use the app at least once a day. Update 11/01/23 Great App Update 06/05/23: Excellent, informative, and easy to use app. I definitely recommend it. I have used this app for 3+ years and track stocks every day. Great app and very easy to use and understand. I definitely recommend as I have tried others and found Market Watch to have the best information.
★★★★☆ Johhny · Oct 5, 2026
Very straight to understand, and with no complicated jargon, please. Nothing much has changed. L still like your app / Market watch. This is because, from time to time, l happen to check for some financial news and investment news too. The only thing that Market watch removed from its investment/ trading platform without consulting your clients was about, getting lid of one of the most liked free chart, that you used to refer to as(BIG CHARTS). Kindly bring it back for subscription
★★★★☆ Bird's Eye · Oct 22, 2026
Helpful info. Easy to navigate. Current market news and lots of financial advice. A bit pricey after the trial runs out.
★☆☆☆☆ Joe Garbaravage · Sep 10, 2026
This app sucks tons and tons of good articles. But they want you to pay for. So it asked me to rate the app again. It still sucks. This app still absolutely sucks. You keep asking me to rate the app, and it still sucks. They asked me to update my evaluation of this app, and it still sucks. I keep getting requests to rate this app. So here I go again, this app still absolutely sucks
★★☆☆☆ SW Kwie · Sep 9, 2026
Can be better if the technical charts are live. Finally, DELETE all news on stocks that are no longer relevant. I can still see old news that do not matter any more as parameters have changed and the old news are not deleted. Why make readers of Market Watch pay to read? (new) My comments are of no use if contributors are not taking action. 9 September 2026.
★☆☆☆☆ Joe Miron · Oct 6, 2026
Article limits are frustrating. I can get the same information on Google
