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
Over 100 Years in Oil and Gas
Royal Dutch Shell, commonly known as Shell, is a British international energy company that has been part of the oil and gas industry for over a century. Shell's vast operations include the exploration, production, refining, distribution, and marketing of oil and natural gas, as well as the generation of renewable energy. The company can be recognized by its distinctive logo featuring a scallop shell.
A Long History in the Oil and Gas Industry
Royal Dutch Shell, more commonly known as Shell, was established in 1907 through the amalgamation of two separate entities: Royal Dutch Petroleum Company (founded in 1890 by Dutch entrepreneurs) and Shell Transport and Trading Company Ltd (started in 1897 by British businessman Marcus Samuel), and the merger was intended to compete against the then-dominant American oil company, Standard Oil. The name "Shell" was derived from the seashells that Samuel's company initially imported from the Far East.
In its early years, Shell capitalized on the burgeoning automobile industry's growing need for petroleum. The company expanded its operations worldwide, drilling in Venezuela, Russia, and the Middle East. By the mid-20th century, Shell had become one of the world's "supermajors" in the oil industry, and the modern company has existed in its current form since 2005.
Products and Services
Shell's product range is vast, encompassing various forms of energy. It is involved in the extraction of crude oil and natural gas, refining these resources into usable fuels and chemicals, and distributing them worldwide. The company also operates a network of retail service stations and supplies lubricants and bitumen. Moreover, Shell has branched out into renewable energy resources, venturing into biofuels, electric vehicle charging, and carbon capture and storage.
Market Presence and Impact
Shell's operations span across the globe, reaching customers in over 70 countries. Its products fuel vehicles, power industries, and heat homes, meeting the energy needs of millions of people every day. Shell's retail network is one of the largest in the world, supplying fuel and services to motorists and businesses. The oil and gas industry is competitive and filled with massive multinational companies like BP, ExxonMobil, and Chevron, to name a few.
