| 2024-10-30 |  | | Confusing app, hard to find the most relevant functions due to the mix of different UI concepts. |
| 2024-08-20 |  | | every other button leads to website which is not mobile friendly |
| 2024-08-06 |  | | I don't like this bew version. Bring back the pie chart overview that also shows my savings account and not just my holdings. |
| 2024-08-02 |  | | Updating the previous app to a new version was completely unnecessary, especially since the new version doesn't work properly 😑 |
| 2022-01-04 |  | | Many improvements in the last year, but still no integration with the DNB markets. While another development team may maintain the mobile web pages, it is, unfortunately for Spare users, part of this user experience. Those mobile pages have updated, but other than looking more modern, the user experience may actually be worse than before. The numbers in the Spare app are still lagging far behind those found on the website. Heading in the right direction though. |
| 2021-08-17 |  | | The app doesn't work with google pixel phones. Waited a year for any update -- but so far nothing. After 17 error messages i can occasionally log on with my full username and 2-step verification protocol, but biometric log in never works. ...and then I close the app for 10 seconds to reply to a message, and I have to spend another 2 minutes (with authenticators and log-in names/IDs) logging back on -- just not worth it currently. Have heard from other pixel users with similar issues. The few times I do (and do manage to) log in I enjoy the available features. However, functionality of buying and selling stocks could be improved significantly. |
| 2021-07-03 |  | | It's a cool app. Has nice use case. Shows nice graph/overview as well. But it's not stable. Sometimes it doesn't even work and other times you have to relaunch multiple times. |
| 2021-05-27 |  | | Pensions section completely buggy. Shows 0 payments total. But then shows detailed payments. Shows 0% return but correct return in NOK. Complete mess. And has been for months. Reported to your customer care twice. To no avail. |
| 2021-03-29 |  | | Good connections. Really wish the "return" on finds was annualised return. Every time you add money to a find it decreases your rate of return making it a bit meaningless. |
| 2021-03-17 |  | | So low rating because the app has been released over a year ago and it's still barely useable. Crashes half of the time, sometime it maximizes vertically so it gets overlayed by android menu buttons and it gets almost impossible to press any of the app bottom tab buttons. When i start it, it often doesn't load some of the accounts, so it lies about the current status - so it's actually worse than no app. The overview pie charts are not a great UX decision, they are there just for the effect |
