Fidelity Investments gives you a practical way to manage your money without being tied to a desktop. From the app, you can check your portfolio, research stocks, place trades, move cash, and follow the market throughout the day.

It works well for long-term investors who want to keep an eye on retirement and brokerage accounts, but there are also enough trading tools for people who follow the market more closely.

How to install Fidelity Investments

1. Open the Fidelity Investments download page.

2. Tap Get.

3. Confirm the installation with Face ID or your Apple ID password.

4. Open the app and sign in.

5. Complete any security check shown on the screen.

New customers can also open certain Fidelity accounts from their iPhone.

Keep your investments close

The app brings your accounts, positions, watchlists, and recent activity into one place. You can quickly see how your portfolio is doing, check an individual holding, or look up an investment before deciding what to do next.

Fidelity includes research, market news, charts, analyst information, and detailed quotes. The amount of information can feel like a lot at first, but it is useful when you want more than a basic price chart.

You can trade stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, and options from the app. Fractional share investing is also available for supported securities, making it easier to invest a specific dollar amount instead of buying a full share.

Recurring investments are handy for people who prefer a steady routine. Choose an amount and schedule, and Fidelity can invest automatically according to your instructions.

More than a trading app

Fidelity Investments also handles many everyday money tasks. You can transfer funds, deposit a check with your iPhone camera, manage eligible cash accounts, and use Bill Pay.

Fidelity Crypto is built into the experience for customers who have access to it. Supported users can buy and sell assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum without moving to a separate crypto app.

Price alerts and notifications help you follow investments without checking the market every few minutes. Set a trigger for a stock or ETF, and the app can let you know when it reaches the selected price.

One important detail: workplace benefits such as an employer-sponsored 401(k) may be handled through Fidelity’s separate NetBenefits app rather than the main Fidelity Investments app.

Is Fidelity Investments free?

The app is free to download and use.

Fidelity offers commission-free online trades for many U.S. stocks and ETFs, but some products, options contracts, managed services, and other transactions may include fees.
