Zacks Mobile App

authentic rating

Behind the app is a respected source of stock research and ratings, and people trust the content. But the app itself lags well behind the website: it glitches, hangs on the loading screen, has no back button, and on iPad only supports portrait mode. There's a worrying complaint about a personal-data breach.

About the rating

The 4.2 storefront and 3.17 text are close, and the picture is honest. People value Zacks' research and ratings but slam the app itself: it glitches, hangs on loading, has no back button, and is portrait-only on iPad. There's a complaint about a personal-data breach, which is an alarming signal. But most gripes are about the interface, not deception, so the content is seen as useful.

Strengths

What users love

  • Valuable research
  • Ratings and stock lists from a well-known source. Helps make buy decisions and plan returns in retirement accounts. Easy access to rankings and data.
Weak spots

What users hate

  • The app glitches
  • Hangs on the loading screen and crashes at startup on some devices. No back button
  • Portrait-only on iPad
  • And notifications won't open. There's a complaint about a personal-data breach and trouble cancelling the trial.

Who it is for

Zacks subscribers and people who value its research and can tolerate the app's awkward interface.
