This app has worked well for me over the years. You can also see from the version history that the dev has made a lot of very useful updates to this app over time. Aside from automatic transaction download/entry (which would likely be a very heavy lift), there probably aren't too many additional features that most users could ask for. The missing fifth star is just for those of us that paid for this app in its earlier days and helped the (very responsive) dev work through issues. New users and previous paid users pay the same subscription price - even though some of the features the previous users already "paid" for (so we have to "pay" for them again). It's not about the money. Just the consideration. I have no doubt this app will continue to be very competitive in this space. I haven't come across too many apps that do all of what it does — especially at this price point.

A great, simple app - delivers exactly what it promises, with a very small memory and CPU footprint. I used to leave Quicken open just to get a quick glance at what this app offers at a much smaller system resource footprint. The only thing I'm not terribly fond of (but not enough to remove a star) is the interface. It's intuitive and pleasant looking, though I'm more of a table/spreadsheet person. I'd prefer the option to observe, add and remove stocks on a single table/spreadsheet. It's not a huge deal though.
