Dividend & Portfolio Tracker

Hello everyone! I’m excited to share a project that’s been my focus for the last year—a portfolio and dividend tracker app specifically designed for Trading 212 users. As a computer science student with a passion for mobile development, this project is a perfect opportunity for me to hone my skills, support my studies, and potentially lay the foundation for a future business.

The app is currently under development, and while the dividend history feature is fully functional, other aspects still need improvement. I’m dedicated to the ongoing development of this app, ensuring regular updates. I’m inviting a select group of users to participate in its beta testing phase. Your feedback on bugs and desired features would be invaluable and can be easily submitted via email through the app.

For our beta testers, the app will be free of charge.

If you’re interested in beta testing, please let me know by sharing the email associated with your Apple Store account. This will allow me to grant you access, as the app is currently not publicly available on the Apple Store and is exclusive to iPhone users.

A key feature of this app is its direct integration with your Trading 212 account through an API key. This means your portfolio is automatically updated, reflecting your account in real-time, eliminating the need for manual data entry.

I’m keen to hear your thoughts and answer any questions you may have. Your support and feedback could play a significant role in enhancing this app’s development journey.

If you are interested please, click on the link below to start testing. There is a limit of 100 users for now, because it is very early stage.

Thanks :blush:

Amazing to hear of such an app being developed, firstly wouldn’t it easier to use testflight so you can just give a link which would allow us to join the beta and also could you add these features if they aren’t already there:
Widgets for iOS
Chart showing value of entire portfolio rather than just invested, I trade quite often so the graph of invested looks like i’m losing money or gaining when it’s just me buying or selling.

Good luck on your project :slight_smile:

I would like to give the link but there are some bugs that I’m working on fix so having a limited amount of people testing is better in the current stage. But it is something I will do 100%.

Regarding the features, there are some other features I’m working on currently that has been requested previously, so I can’t give you a time frame but an iOS widget is definitely in the plan. Would you be able to clarify more regarding the chart idea ?

Thanks for your support I really appreciate it :slight_smile:

Yeah so the chart on the website of trading212 shows the amount you have invested, so if i had a portfolio of 1000 dollars and only 800 is invested in stocks for example the graph shows 800 and doesn’t include the free funds I have, now let’s say I sell one of my stocks for 100, the chart now shows 700 instead, so it looks like my portfolio has gone down in value when it’s actually just me selling a stock. What I’m asking is if you could add a chart that showed the history of the whole portfolio (amount invested+free funds), I’m pretty sure to do this you’ll need to see trades and deposits and then use stock market data to calculate the past portfolio values and then put in a chart.

I really like what you’ve done here. Happy to help with testing. I have installed and will provide feedback. Thanks

I like where this app is heading. It’s early days but it’s producing some nice data with the API.

The developer is very responsive to feedback and sorted some initial bugs with my data very quickly.

Looking forward to helping and seeing this effort develop.

Hey everyone :waving_hand:

I’ve been working hard on this app, and while the project has evolved a bit, I wanted to share where things stand and get your input. I’m not a professional software engineer—just recently graduated—but I’ve been doing my best to build something useful and intuitive.

The idea started from my own needs: I wanted a simple, cost-effective portfolio tracker that didn’t rely on expensive APIs. As many developers know, accessing data like dividend calendars, company profiles, and price history can get pricey fast, which is why many platforms end up charging high monthly fees.

To keep things free, I’ve built the app using only the Trading 212 API. It’s somewhat limited, but it allows me to avoid external API costs and offer the app at no charge. I’ve also made sure that all your data—portfolio info, API key, stock details—is stored locally on your device. The only thing saved externally is the stock icons.

The Android version is nearly ready for testing, and I’ve just submitted the iOS version to Apple. It should be approved by tomorrow, and I’ll share the link as soon as it’s live.

Functionality is intentionally limited for now to keep things lightweight and sustainable. But I’d love to improve it with your feedback. You’ll be able to contact me directly through the app and even attach screenshots to report bugs or suggest improvements.

No login is required—just enter your API key to get started. I’m also thinking of adding a voting feature so users can help prioritize new functionalities. If something isn’t useful, I can remove it. The goal is to keep the app simple, purposeful, and easy to use (I’m trying to make the UI nice too :sweat_smile:).

Looking ahead, if we want to expand features without relying on costly APIs, maybe we could build a community-driven system where users contribute company info that syncs across devices. Just an idea—but I’d love to hear what you think.

Hey guys, If you want to test it, feel free to provide me feedbacks, and maybe I will build a simple community in the app just for discussions of what I could implement next. You will probably have some icons missing… in the settings you have the options to request missing information and it will automatically send me an email with the instruments you have missing information so i can update it.

Really nice, slick app. Couple of points for feedback:

  • Dividend tab does not load

  • Portfolio statistics tab - find the dip does not identify which stock has dipped

18

Hey :slight_smile:

Thanks for testing the app. Regarding the find the dip chart it is most likely because the stock you own has no icons assigned to them because the chart display the icon for each stock under each bar. I’m also updating the app to display the name of the stock when you tap on the bars. Could you go in settings and tap “Request missing information”, it will automatically create an email with the stock icons missing and I can update them for you.

Regaridng the dividends tab, I’m not aware of any problem, doesn’t it simple not show anything ? Do you get any error or something ? Please send me a screenshot via email as well if you can.

Thanks :slight_smile:

With a little patience the dividend tab has now loaded. Maybe this was slow due to the amount of historic info.

I can see a couple of icons now. And sent email of the missing ones. My only thought are that the Fiona are quite small and possible hard to identify without a label

I will update the icons for you soon.

Regarding the dividends tab, unfortunately Trading 212 API has limits on how many calls we can have, so specially the first time you load the app, it might take a few minutes to load all the information.

Also, regarding the chart, the next update will be better, it will display the name, ticker and logo of the company once you tap on a bar.

Thanks

By the way, your icons should be showing up now :slight_smile:

Hey @s.voltolini

It’s every time I open the app, the dividends screen has to load, it does eventually but it seems the data isn’t being saved locally so every time you open the app it is fetching a new version of the information rather than presenting last saved, if that makes sense.
