Option to turn off social and community feeds

šŸ’” Feature suggestions & ideas

Hi Can we have the option to turn on / off:
Community feeds
Hot conversations
Social etc

Reason being like many people who are using the trading212 platform this is for investing short or long term etc and do not wish to see peoples comments or suggestions or advise all the time every time you open different tabs or pages .

I have a normal high street bank account and a savings account etc but I donā€™t want peoples comments or advice popping up on that .

An option to disable or enable this feature would be nice .

So you have the choice to use trading212 as a trading / investment account rather than feeling like a social media account.

Hello, @Ace111 :wave:

Itā€™s possible to opt out of all or selected notifications and emails from the 212 Social and Community Forum.

The in-app notifications for the 212 Social can be adjusted from Menu ā†’ Settings ā†’ Notifications.

Many thanks , yes done all that . I mean the tabs etc for example if you click on the social tab or the home tab the (hot conversations or communities ) is visible can this not be hidden in the future ?

Or even just the social tab itself made hidden /unhidden

Youā€™re most welcome. To answer the last question, itā€™s not possible to hide the Social tab or specific elements within it (hot conversations, communities, etc.).

I agree I canā€™t see why this option canā€™t be implemented itā€™s just a tab button make it hidden/unhidden etc .

I just want to trade and buy stocks without feeling Iā€™m on Facebook .

Especially as this App involves my money and stocks etc , seeing other members posts popping up on the screen , seeing posts and comments etc it just makes it feel to intrusive , and unsafe.

@Veselin.V , @Bogi.H Trading212 please Just give the option to hide this button would work

Hot topics are in the Communities tab and didnā€™t use to be in the Feed.
There is no need for them to be in both.At least let it be collapsible.
Trading 212 donā€™t appear to understand the premise of ā€˜If it isnā€™t broken donā€™t fix itā€™

Would be amazing to opt in/out of the social tab. The place is a mess. Canā€™t t212 just be a trading platform for those who want it that way? If people wanna chat about Tesla stock then they can opt in or do it elsewhere

I was going to start a new topic to say that the number of push and email notifications that are on by default for new members is quite spammy. But it falls under the same problem as this post, there is too much kind of tacky social and marketing stuff on by default.
