I am kind of new on this one but so far it seems to have a great way to invest and grow with, just hope I don't have any issues with this investment... so far it seems a great source

I installed this from the beginning of their service to me. I have never had an issue with the app and absolutely love vanguard. I have a high interest savings and also use their brokerage service. I had no problem doing a bank to bank transfer or purchasing etf's.

Used for 1st time 4/20/2023. Easily purchased stocks. Search engine for stock symbol wasn't great, but everything else was flawless. Liked cost basis being an option on main page. For a while, I couldn't chose to view by cost basis on the website. I would recommend this app 👍

Make it easier to see the breakdown of your 401k and Roth IRA in the info graph. Maybe a button on the time breakdown that will split the 2 up, so you can see both account graphs independently.
★★☆☆☆Will L.· Jul 10, 2026
Super glitchy. When you touch one of the quick links at the bottom of the page they just disappear, and you have to restart the app. Super annoying I'm sorry I went with Vanguard as a brokerage because of it. I'm rethinking my whole account.

The app works fine, but biometrics login doesn't work. When toggling it on, the message comes up "To enable biometrics disable facial recognition and enable fingerprint verification in your device settings". There's no such device setting, and I have fingerprints enabled and working in all other apps, except Vanguard. Please fix this

Biometrics don't always work. Login page doesn't load properly. This is the most frustrating app. Lot of bugs. Throws errors most of the time.
