A Forex trading app is an application you can download to your phone or tablet that allows you to trade Forex and other financial instruments. Forex trading apps are usually offered free by Forex brokers. Some apps are proprietary, which means they are developed in-house by a broker. But many popular apps are developed by third-party companies. Proprietary Forex trading apps are usually easier to set up and use by beginners.
Forex trading apps will let you open a demo or trading account with the broker, buy and sell instruments, deposit and withdraw funds from your broker, provide real-time market data, display news and analysis, and provide price alerts and other tools to manage your risk.
Forex trading apps are available on mobile devices, while Forex trading platforms run on desktop computers. Otherwise, they perform the same function. Both allow you to trade on financial markets and will connect to your broker’s trading system. Desktop trading platforms tend to have more features and tools than trading apps and are favoured by experienced traders who require more in-depth technical analysis and advanced order types.
To test these mobile apps, we downloaded and installed them on Android and iOS devices and connected our live trading accounts. While trading on the mobile apps, we tested the platform’s stability and execution speed. We also compared their fees and checked how easy it was to deposit and withdraw money from our trading account. We only work with well-regulated brokers with a good reputation for treating their clients fairly. Want to know more about our in-depth review process? Click here to find out.

All Forex and CFD trading comes with a high degree of risk of losing all the money in your trading account.
