Update 04/2026: 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.

One issue is that the watch list corrupts itself, and you have to refresh it over and over. I read many of the articles and find them accurate.
★☆☆☆☆Carolyn Samiere· Apr 1, 2026
Impossible to cancel. Market Watch does not inform you that the app will be managed by Google, and they refuse to help you cancel. Deceitful business practice.
★★☆☆☆Michael Terry· May 2, 2026
App is great when it works. Having to constantly log in and have the password sync can be a headache at times
★☆☆☆☆David da Silva· May 15, 2026
Opening a notification just gets you to the main page and not the article (xhen it does cause if you try it twice you just have a black screen)...
