Mobile wise, I'd say Webull is good for both. Most brokerages are zero commissions. Their customer service might be limited to chats and emails though.

Lots of people using Robinhood for mobile, but IMO it's a little too basic. it doesn't have the charting and features Webull has.

I trade a lot of options, and Etrade is good for that. Not the regular etrade mobile, which sucks, but the so called "power etrade" app (which doesn't cost extra) is great for options (they bought it from a firm called optionshouse who knew what they were doing). God forbid you need customer service though, be prepared to wait over an hour.

Interactive Brokers is the best app out there for entering and exiting trades quickly I think, but it's a little advanced unless you are manically trading penny stocks or shorting.

TD Ameritrade, and specifically their ThinkorSwim app (also bought from outside) is fantastic for mobile trading. The best mobile charts out there. I have a small account there, but I rarely trade in it, and usually just use them for their charts.


I use Fidelity for my IRA, but the mobile app sucks. But if you are just trading some major S&P type stocks it might be ok. Their customer service is very good though.

Schwab mobile app is not very good in my opinon. I think they have an alternate version but I've never tried it.

I used to use Ally Financial for options, it's pretty good for that too. Decent mobile app and decent customer service. (used to be Tradeking-specialized in options).

Just some thoughts.
