AJ Bell does have an investing app, which is a good way of checking on your investments when out and about. But, I have to say, it’s a bit clunky compared to full-service brokers like Interactive Brokers or even new apps like CMC Invest. It’s not as good as the main website, as you don;t get the full screeners or research, plus it’s an absolute pain to log in to as for some reason it seems to always wipe my login info.
AJ Bell Investing App Review
![AJ Bell](https://goodmoneyguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/AJ-Bell-Logo.png)
Name: AJ Bell Investing App
Description: AJ Bell’s investing app is a good choice for anyone who is more interested in keeping costs at a bare minimum whilst still having access to a huge range of markets and account types. It’s not quite as suitable for very active investors as II and HL due to the lack of execution order types, but for those who just want to build a portfolio without trying to time the market too much, it is a very good option.
