   Pdt rule change. They’re gonna take a year to change the PDT rule horrible customer service

4. ★★★★★a needed feature is missing

   Shaming small accounts. Absolute joke.. IB LLC implemented the new FINRA Rule 4210 but decided to roll it out in "waves," prioritizing large accounts that already have over $25k and don’t even suffer from PDT restrictions. Small retail traders who actually need the PDT ban lifted are left stranded and restricted. Other brokers like Webull and Robinhood fully released this on June 4th. IBKR might have a massive asset scale, but their treatment of smaller active traders is petty and pathetic. 1 star😡😡😡😡

   Great broker, unusable app. Interactive Brokers is a solid brokerage, but this app is a UX disaster. When I switched to a new iPhone, there was no self-serve way to log into my existing account. I spent two days troubleshooting every option available, consulting their outdated knowledge base, and even getting AI to help me. In the end I still have to phone support just to get into my own account. The UX copy, interaction feedback, error messages throughout are cryptic and unhelpful. When something goes wrong, you have no idea what happened or what to do next. This is one of the most basic tenets of usable software. It is clear that either there are no product designers working on this app, or the ones they have are not being listened to. Hire UX designers and copywriters, or if you already have them, let them do their jobs. Your product deserves better.

6. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Not a good experience. I use trading view and as compared to other brokers when I tried to integrate it did not give me the real market data always gave a caution info icon. First impressions are the last they say so …I am out of here..

7. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   Incredibly buggy / laggy. Just incredibly buggy and laggy and there’s not much support

8. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   GLITCHY APP AND SLOW SERVERS. They claim fast speeds and up to date quotes but their main flaw is app is constantly buggy, it’s slow and when you want to close a position it takes forever to load. Constant disclaimer messages also get in the way for everything you do. Nobody got time to make trades on a computer every day to use their proclaimed trading platform. My internet is fine, my phone internet is fine. I NEVER HAD THESE ISSUES WITH Charles Schwab, Fidelity or Robinhood. This platform caused me a bad P&L on my trades because of a time wasted loading their quotes. YES I HAVE PAID SUBSCRIPTION for networks A B and C real time quotes and yes I had OPRA subscription. Even their website is SLOW during market hours. Constant delays with loading pages. Horrible experience. I’m transferring my funds back to my favorite broker that IS NOT interactive brokers.

   Terrible. Worst app I have ever used

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    App became inaccessible after iPhone restore. I had an issue with my iPhone so Apple told me to reset the iPhone and do a restore. I had backed up my ib app but I still lost access to the app because my ib key was deleted. Without the app I can’t access the website either. I do not have these issues with Tastytrade or Fidelity their apps actually work.

11. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    If you are wanting to trade on this app don’t plan on being in a hurry.. Don’t plan on being in a hurry. It takes about a week for your funds to clear from when you deposit directly from your bank acct. I also heard it was a good app for options but it’s the first app I can’t get approved for options. Go figure. I thought paying for a broker instead of a free app would be better but so far I haven’t found it the case.

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Attention. It is not secure my ssn leaked, I expect more data breach to leak from this app and that company.

13. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Available fund LOST after deposit. It said $1000 was credited immediately to my account, but I waited for two days and it still shows $0. Fraud platform? Live agents are useless too. WHERE IS MY FUND???

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Terrible service + insane fee structure. Terrible service + insane fee structure (especially for market data). Nickel and dime for even ACH out. Poor UX. Only benefit is SPX after hours trading which is obsolete compared to other methods. Waste of time company.

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    App UX Is From 2010. Connection state management is finicky at best. Order entry and management is cripplingly bad.

16. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Signup is impossible. Cant get pass the income page of signup even though I completed it, support didnt help at all get a new app this ones broken

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Account can not be processed. I am a respected somali citizen who live in Kuwait, although my several attempts to open an account for over 10 years i was not able to do so as per their company policy which lead me to lose 11 k USD on untrusted broker. I am very frustrated

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Terrible bugs, no support. All my Orders got cancelled for no reason more than once, they take no responsibility.

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Doesn’t even open. How can I review something that doesn’t work?’ The app is garbage.

20. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Communist. Won’t allow me lvl 2 options but will let me gamble on the forecasting the weather lol

22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Not powerful, terrible UI/UX. For a brokerage of this size I think there’s no excuse for this app to be so low quality and limiting in features. Even basic things like logging in are a chore with this brokerage and you will jump through many hoops to do simple stuff you can easily do almost everywhere else. The stuff it lacks is genuinely crazy, this is not a “professional” platform. The absolute only redeeming quality this brokerage has is international stocks but if you only do US I would NEVER put your money in this brokerage or touch with a 10 foot pole.

23. ★★★★★accessibility and assistive-technology issues

    Latest update and font size. I updated to latest and now I can’t adjust the font size in app. Why did you remove this option? Everything is massive now

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Glad I didn't fund account. I set up an account. Was ready to find account for trading. Had problems verifying security to IBKR satisfaction. Numerous attempts to contact customer service not successful. Of last 100 reviews, 60 have been rated 1 star. I think I'll pass. Extremely poor customer service.

25. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Abysmal UI. This has to be one of the worst user interfaces I’ve ever used! Everything is abysmal in this brokerage app! The charting sucks, transferring funds is atrocious (am I transferring from or too? Who knows!), dashboard is none existent, good luck finding your account and balances, want to see what you own vs what you paid for it… You better have it written down because you won’t find it! This UI is littered with none important information and endless articles of BS! The management team for this app needs an overhaul!! LESS IS MORE!! Stop littering your customers with garbage UI, 19 taps just to do one thing, and 4 logins just to make a trade or transfer funds!

26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Rubbish. Can’t even sign up to the app. Many errors even after I confirmed the account form the email. Simply rubbish.

27. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Forced Compliance. I am required to install this app to continue to access my IBKR account. I do not want to have to install this app to access my account. I do not want one more app in my life. This goes in the “con” column when assessing whether to maintain my IBKR account into the future. UPDATE: I have now downloaded this app and, while allowed to trade on this app, I am still not allowed to trade at my desktop because I have not set up fingerprint or Face ID on my phone. I do not want to trade on my phone. I want to trade at my desktop. I do not want to set up fingerprint or Face ID on my phone to trade at my desktop—nor for any other reason. I will be withdrawing my funds and discontinuing my relationship with IBKR.

28. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Had enough of them. They’re the only broker I use where I consistently lose money long term. Every other broker I use I’ve been able to recover somewhat, but these guys seem like they have a related party trading against you. And today, they randomly and without warning removed my trading permissions across all markets. This includes the ability to close my EXISTING positions. I’m not just foreign but my domestic market. Who the hell does this? I can’t trust any significant money to these jokers any more. This is the last straw.

    Worst Broker Ever Worked with in 20+ yrs of trading. The data is unreliable, the customer service is abysmal. Also trade execution is questionable.
