How can we help?

iOS Watchlist Widget

See how your favourite stocks are tracking – right from your home screen. The Stake watchlist widget makes it easy to monitor daily performance at a glance.

You can:

  • Sort by biggest movers, most up or most down

  • Toggle between watchlists

  • Switch how you view price changes – by percentage or dollar value

 

To get started:

  • Update your app and iOS – Make sure your Stake app and device are both up to date.

  • Enter edit mode – Tap and hold an empty area of your home screen until your apps begin to jiggle.

  • Add a widget – Tap the ‘+’ icon in the top-left corner.

  • Find Stake – Search for or scroll down to the Stake widget.

  • Choose a size – Pick from three available sizes, then tap ‘Add Widget’.

 

Customise:

  1. Tap and hold the widget

  2. Tap ‘Edit Widget’

  3. Adjust the following settings:

  • Watchlist – Select from your custom watchlists created in the Stake app. If nothing appears, open the app and create one under the Watch tab.

  • Sort by – Choose how stocks are displayed:

    • Biggest movers – Largest daily movements (up or down)

    • Most up – Largest daily gains

    • Most down – Largest daily losses

    • None – Follows your custom watchlist order

  • Price change – Display changes as a percentage or dollar value

 

Want multiple iOS watchlists?

You can use Apple’s Widget Stack feature to view more than one watchlist:

  1. Add your first Stake widget and set it to one watchlist

  2. Add a second Stake widget with a different watchlist

  3. Tap and hold the second widget, then drag it on top of the first

  4. You can now swipe between them
