excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.

Frequently asked questions
Operating Systems Pioneer
Microsoft Corporation is a global technology company that specializes in the development, licensing, and support of a wide range of software products, services, and devices. Its portfolio includes operating systems for computing devices, servers, cloud-based services, business solution applications, software development tools, video games, personal computers, and much more. Microsoft is headquartered in Redmond, Washington, and its shares are listed on the NASDAQ.
Bill Gates and Paul Allen
The story of Microsoft begins in 1975, when the two friends Bill Gates and Paul Allen started a company that would develop and sell software for microcomputers. They had a vision of putting a personal computer in every home, and they believed that software would be the key to making that vision a reality. Their first product was a BASIC interpreter for the Altair 8800, a microcomputer that was popular at the time. The success of this product led to the founding of Microsoft and the development of other programming languages and software.
One of Microsoft's most significant contributions to the tech industry is the development of the Windows operating system. Windows was first released in 1985 and quickly became the dominant operating system for personal computers. This success was due in part to the user-friendly graphical user interface that Windows offered, which made it easier for people to use computers. Windows is still the most widely used operating system for computers, with Apple's MacOS being in second place.
