What it’s for: Trading in a range of investment products
Why it’s useful: David Curry describes Freetrade as “the best zero commission stock trading app available, which offers stocks and shares, ISA and pension SIPP account.”
Pros: Commission-free, easy to use and set up. Unlimited trades. Good for beginners. Links to your bank account to allow you to make withdrawals and payments.
Cons: Basic version only provides access to limited selection of products.
The app other than Freetrade I can vouch for is Planta - it has helped keep my plants in the house alive for the last couple of years. I only use the free service.
I have 6 mushroom apps on my phone. Plus some apps for wild plants in general. In the case of the latter you photograph the plant and the app attempts to “name that plant”. Oregano is feral in the UK. So no need to buy it… according to the app. In fact it covers an embankment near me about 50 metres long. So definitely not buying.
I think I’m the one they watch to see what recycling goes out.
