Apple Stocks is a clean, straightforward way to keep an eye on the market from your iPhone. You can follow the companies you care about, check how major indexes are moving, and open a chart whenever a price change catches your attention.

The app is made for tracking and research rather than trading. You cannot buy or sell investments inside Stocks, but it works well as a quick market dashboard.

How to install Apple Stocks

1. Open the Stocks page on your iPhone.

2. Tap Get or the cloud icon.

3. Confirm the download if asked.

4. Open the app and add your first symbols.

Stocks is included with iOS, but you can download it again if it was previously removed.

Build your own watchlists

You can create separate watchlists for different parts of the market. One might contain companies you own, another could follow major indexes, while a third keeps an eye on ETFs or currencies.

Each list can show the latest price, daily change, percentage movement or market capitalization. This makes it easy to scan the market without opening every symbol individually.

Charts, company data and earnings

Tap a symbol to see a more detailed page with an interactive chart. You can switch between different time periods and compare how the price has moved over a day, week, month or longer.

The app also shows useful figures such as trading volume, market capitalization and earnings information. Upcoming earnings dates can be added to your calendar, which is handy when you follow several companies.

Business news in the same app

Stocks brings relevant business stories into each company page. Instead of searching the web every time a stock moves, you can quickly check whether there has been an earnings report, product announcement or other important news.

News availability and sources vary by country. Some Apple News+ stories require a subscription.

Use Stocks across Apple devices

Watchlists sync through iCloud, so changes made on an iPhone can also appear on an iPad, Mac, Apple Watch or other supported Apple device.

Widgets can place selected prices on the Home Screen or Lock Screen, while Siri can answer simple questions about companies and market indexes.

Is Apple Stocks free?

Yes. The app is free to download and use.

It does not require a brokerage account because it does not handle trades or hold investments.
