I just drop the app and go with a private listing provider they are free as well.

Does anyone know of an iPad ap that does that as simply. I checked yahoo finance and it doesn't as far as I can figure out.

We do not share other things like pictures, texts or anything else that I know of. Any ideas other than just love each other's stocks? I just added AMED and she is at work and it changed on her phone as well, so proximity apparently has nothing to do with it.

Since March 3, 2012 the headlines have not updated except for a couple of times when current headlines suddenly appear and then a quickly replaced with the ones from Mar. 3. I have tried the soft resent to no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks My 4S iphone stock app has a MarketWatch list of headlines below the list of stocks.

Now, the stock page just shows a - beside the stocks instead of a number and it shows 2.05B beside one of them, instead of whether it is up or down. Do I need to do something to this new phone to get the up or down piece to work or what does those codes mean? My iphone wasn’t working right, so I got a new one under warranty.
