Hargreaves Lansdown (HL) for Android
Not impressed with this. Cannot design my own watchlist to how I want, for example indices and companies on one page. Deleting.
New look is great. Can easily trade, monitor socks and funds. Feels fast and smooth running. Accurate prices and now has a vertical axis on charts. Amazing.
Very good app! Would love to see widgets as I have to use MSN money for these at the moment.
Pretty good login could be improved.
The app makes everything easy, from dealing to monitoring stocks. I love the fast fingertip authorization. However there is a problem with wishlists. I spent a great deal of hours this weekend researching stocks and saving them into several wishlists by industry. Said wishlists disappeared twice, wiping pretty much all the progress I made in the research.
Excellent app! HL account is too expensive for me to use, and I've lost more money following HL advice than any other so it's good to find this. Bet it won't be long before they charge for it though! :-)
Since new layout of app has been launched, I cannot read any company news using Samsung Galaxy S 6. It really disappointing.
Great app. Stable, real time FTSE shares and dealing. Yahoo finance is now secondary for my portfolio monitoring.
Massive improvement! Could still do with y-axis numbers on the graphs and some client side caching though.
Don't usually like it when they change an App but a vast improvement
nice update. now i have to fully authenticate every single open. pain in the butt.
Good app but needs day Hi/Lo prices for shares. This is a must have and its missing. Please add.
The charts are meaningless without a vertical scale
Would be my go to app if markets screen was configurable and if wider range of probably non HL funds were available in watch lists.
I great to be able to access Hargreaves Lansdowne on my phone
All works well. Does what I need.
Cannot screenshot
Cant even log in... says connection error.
Fingerprint yes very nice!
Easy to use
#update.. Still won't let me log in. Waiting 9 days. Also won't let Android take screenshot. ###The new app didn't keep logging me out like the old one. But you can't see a shares high/low of the day. There's no axis on the chart, the watch list is frustrating. WORSE OF ALL..when I now put in my password it takes me back to the log in page. It recognises me as a user but not my password so I can't use it. HL are investigating
Utter garbage. The previous version was absolutely fine. Now, everytime I wish to look at my watch list it says the connection is lost. Totally unusable. Rubbish!!
Login is painful. I understand there's security concern but my banking apps are much easier to login. HL should step up the effort and learn from those big banks.
This app was basic and slow but an update Q1 2017 really improved things. However the app is nowhere near as slick and functional as say the IG markets app which has quick graphing and watchlists.
I was never a member and only used the app to watch my shares. After the update they all disappeared so no use to me anymore. They seem to have sorted out the, previous problems now. Thanks.
No y axis on the graph making them usless and Won't display company announcements either I found the old app more user friendly than the new app I would go back to the old app if I could it was far easier to use and had more information definitely a half assed attempt this is now a very poor app Hargreaves lansdown you have messed up Hargreaves lansdown please sort this app out
I like the new app however I have a few issues. The graph is no longer interactive and doesn't contain a price axis which makes it ineffective. You used to be able to click on the graph to see price highs and lows, etc, and you could also drag the the graph to zoom in. Certain displays are incomplete, e.g. the 'recent dividend' and 'Annual dividend history' displays are missing the bottom line of information. And finally mine keeps crashing or becomes unusable if I have been to another app and then come back to the h-l app. I then have to force close. If I crash or force close I then have to log back in fully using my password to get access to my watchlists even though the app says 'Welcome Charlie'. It had crashed so often in recent days that I received a pop-up asking if I wanted to unintstall. I am using on a Galaxy S5. Am I missing something but how do you remove single stocks from watchlist? e.g. ryanair, bg, hertz details no longer show in my watchlist. I can add back in new entry but not remove old entry. Why does this happen?
This app has been vastly improved. Login is easier, much more utility in terms of what you can do and info you can access. Watchlist utility is better. Very pleased with updated version.
Just loops from login to t&c's. I click 'accept' which takes me back to login screen. Yes my credentials are correct (It's fine on the desktop), I've cleared the cache, & reinstalled it. Still the same.
Would love to see a widget created for the watch list feature rather than having to open the application all the time. Would get 4-5 stars with the above feature. The new version of the application is way better and easy to use.
Nice update, thanks devs ! One happy loyal customer...much improved over the old app. Upgraded to 5 stars
Can get passed first stage of logging in to account using fingerprint but then asks for characters of my password. It has 3 characters I need to fill in but doesn't tell me which 3 characters of my password it wants.
Keeps crashing, and now won't let me login. Watchlists keep disappearing, and fingerprint login failing. Considering the amount I'm paying per trade, not the smoothest of apps. Please sort it out.
Says my phone is compromised hasn't been rooted no trouble with any other apps, any ideas
Login issues for me too. Unusable.
Useful for viewing your portfolio and trading and love the fingerprint login but the charts are totally useless.
Really nice. Great UX + UI. Can I ask, when will I be able to manage alerts through the app?
It's the worst, I don't normally review but it's that bad, changing the look did not fix the problems
Initially worked well but can no longer log in.
by U####:
A vast improvement with new update today. A lot more stable. Now no problem with search page and no crashes if I bring a share up to view closer. Overview, financials and news now showing.
