  • App Freezes and Lags

    As others have stated, the app seems great but is poorly (or not at all) optimized. I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max that has never had any issues before. The game freezes and lags horribly, making it almost impossible to operate within the app. Once I backed out of the game, the rest of my phone was also unusually laggy and I noticed it was beginning to overheat. Needless to say that as soon as I deleted the app, all these problems immediately disappeared with it. Hopefully the app is optimized for operation once again because it’s definitely got potential. It’s simply not practical (or likely safe) for use as of right now (March 6th, 2025).

    I thought this is something fun I could suggest to my clients. Maybe they could learn about investing and have fun at the same time. When I finally got to the part where I could actually start playing the game, the app told me that I was blocked. There’s absolutely no reason I should’ve been blocked. Neither I nor my clients have time for this. Figure out your algorithm, and maybe I’ll download this again... Until then I won’t be suggesting it to anyone.

    This app just block my iPhone as soon as the app starts. This app apparently doesn’t even work. Waste of time.

    I’ve been playing this game on my browser and thought downloading the app would be a good idea but the app won’t even let me in. I hit get started and it immediately sent me to a screen that says you have been blocked. Apparently my browser is suspicious or something? The point is I have literally done nothing except download the app and hit get started and it won’t let me in. I’ve tried deleting it and re-downloading it several times and it’s the same every time. The game is fun so I guess I’m gonna have to stick to using the browser, but the app itself does not work.
