Schwab Mobile puts investing and everyday banking in the same app. Whether you're checking your portfolio over coffee, placing a stock order during the day, or depositing a check from home, everything is easy to reach without opening a desktop browser.

If you already have a Charles Schwab account, the app gives you quick access to your investments, bank accounts, retirement savings, and market information wherever you are.

2. Tap Get.

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

Invest with confidence

Schwab Mobile makes it simple to monitor your investments throughout the day. You can check your portfolio, review gains and losses, follow watchlists, and see how individual positions are performing.

Buying or selling stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, and other supported investments takes only a few taps. If you prefer more control, advanced order types and real-time market data are also available for eligible accounts.

The app works equally well whether you make occasional long-term investments or actively follow the markets.

Banking and cash management

If you use Schwab Bank, everyday banking features are built into the same app. You can review balances, transfer money, pay bills, deposit checks with your iPhone camera, and view recent transactions.

Having investments and banking together makes it easier to manage your finances without switching between different apps.

Research before you invest

One feature that stands out is the amount of market research available directly inside the app.

You can read analyst reports, follow financial news, view stock charts, research ETFs, compare investments, and monitor market trends before making a decision.

For long-term investors, these tools are often just as valuable as the trading features themselves.

Security and account alerts

Schwab Mobile supports Face ID on compatible iPhones and offers security alerts that notify you about important account activity.

You can also customize notifications for price movements, completed trades, deposits, and other events, helping you stay informed without constantly checking the app.
