CoinCap

This app is awesome. Not only does it support tons of different cryptocurrencies and update in real time, the altfolio feature is hands-down one of the most useful things for someone who wants to know the value of ALL of their cryptocurrencies at once. It’s easy to add and subtract from your holdings, or even have a couple different altfolios if you want to separate them out for whatever reason. The alert feature is also VERY robust and can even integrate with your altfolios. A couple of critiques: when you first reopen the app, it’s sometimes frozen for a few seconds while it catches up, the alerts don’t always get sent out like they should, and the prices can sometimes fluctuate pretty aggressively pretty quickly (~+/-1-2%). I’d like to know where the app gets its data. It usually seems to be right around where coinmarketcap is, so it seems to be accurate, but the fluctuations just invite some curiosity. I would also really like to see a 1hr graph on the price charts, and this app would make for an *awesome* Apple Watch app, should the devs decide to be ambitious :D As it stands now, though, the app is just about perfect, and I would recommend it to any holder of crypto who wants to know the value of their holdings in a simple, visually appealing, easy to use way.

I’ve recently hopped on the crypto bandwagon. It’s been about two months now, and overall, it’s been a hectic ride. There’s a unique emotional thrill that comes with watching your coin assets fluctuate throughout the weeks. A feeling I’ve been lucky to experience a handful amount of times. This app, CoinCap, adds the cherry on top. No other app on the market offers such a clean and simple UI to describe the chaotic nature of cryptocurrencies. CoinCap allows the user to quickly add/remove/edit (from a wide range of various coins/tokens!) your exchanged assets into a personal “altfolio.” This live-fed mechanism allows you to keep track of your asset values second-to-second. Lastly, you’ll have the ability to set alarms of various kinds for any coin you wish. This allows the frequent traders to be notified when to buy/sell/exchange to achieve your highest profit. This app was exactly what I was looking for, and I’m very glad I found it. 5 stars, two thumbs up, 10/10.

I had downloaded an update that prevented use of the app, but now that things are back to normal, it’s working good again. I do seem to have issues with price high/low notifications not occurring, despite all settings checked/tried. Makes trading considerations a manual job. Additionally, it would be nice to be able to remove gain % from purchases made, if that makes sense. For instance, one of my altfolios shows significant gains during periods I purchased coins, but the gains are not directly related to the price of the coins over time, the percentage is higher because I added in, not because the market caused the gains. I would like to see overall market gain/loss % for an altfolio, not just altfolio balance change %. Once those work, it’ll be a 5-star app, for sure.

Overall the updated version is not bad. However there is no option in the settings for FaceID/TouchID. Also, if you choose option to Hide balances and then while checking your altfolio choose not to hide by clicking on the eye icon and then scroll down through your coins it will hide again automatically when start scrolling. Quite annoying to un-hide it again and again if you already deliberately open it once. I would expect it to show balances until you either exit this particular altfolio or switch it back to hide. The previous version behaved like that. Hope this will be fixed in the next update. Thanks

Had to change my review because I have learned how they count Ripples escrowed xrp against the circulating supply. All things being fair than the Tulip escrow fund of 1.1 million bitcoin should not be counted along with the other escrowed bitcoin out there. Also can’t get passed the 4 million bitcoin that have had their private keys lost never to be retrieved ever again. Another 2 million bitcoin have been stolen. There is not 17.4 million bitcoin circulating on the open market. Also found out about taking the Korean exchanges out last year during the bull run to drop xrp’s price. If that’s not manipulation, I don’t know what is. Since you only accept donations in all the variations of bitcoin. It looks like you have a vested interest in their success when you should be agnostic.
