Awesome Crypto Trading Experience! I recently started using the Kraken app for cryptocurrency trading, and I must say, it's fantastic! The interface is incredibly user-friendly, making it easy to navigate and find what I need. Whether you're a beginner or more experienced, this app has something for everyone. I highly recommend anyone interested in crypto to check it out—you won't be disappointed!

Update. Now I can't even add a debit card. They can't keep up with volume. Not a good sign for the future. Constantly Freezes. My phone is 100% up to date. I have excellent Internet service. The app is going down hill fast.I have to close out and reopen after every transaction. App updates only make it worse. I did not have issues 4 months ago. Now, issues every time I use it.

Prices are not always accurate. The fee is tied to the purchase or sell price. It's to expensive. The charts are not fast enough. If you want to just buy and sell crypto outright, it's to darn expensive. The fees eat a lot of potential profits. The app works. If you link your bank account you can deposit fast and easy but to withdraw you have a long waiting period. You know "for security reasons"....
