Blockfolio vs Coinmarketcap app

[dbc23]

I recently saw Coinmarketcap rolled out their own portfolio tracking app (not sure how new it is) but it appears to have the same functionality as blockfolio, and I'd wager the same information hoovering (tracking your portfolio and using/selling that data to others).

Just curious if anyone out there has used both and has seen any clear reason for one over the other.

ALSO, does anyone have a FOSS/private application or system (besides excel) for tracking their portfolios outside these two apps or the few major websites that do the same thing?

I don't use coinmarketcap application but I'd like to share things I use.
I'm always using portfolio at cryptocompare.com. There are several reasons:
1. Synchronization. I can't use Blockfolio just because it's not convenient when you have more than one device. Moreover, there is no cloud backup.
2. Many portfolios. Blockfolio can't manage different portfolios while cryptocompare can.
3. Desctop version. I like to manage my portfolio via desctop - it's much more convenient than at smatphone.
Cryptocompare has cons too. For example, the lack of small cap coins.
But I use Blockfolio app too, for price alerts.

Totally agree.
BTW cryptocompare has very nice UI design.

Personally, I use Coinmarketcap for half a year and I love this app. There's a lot of coins and they promptly add a new one every week. I would recommend you Coinmarketcap.

I use both, coinmarketcap and blockfolio.
blockfolio I use to see the development of all the value of my assets, up or down and I install his app on android.
coinmarketcap also always i use in smartphone or on desktop to see price, volume and market an alt.

but for the blockfolio there are still some new alt which is not yet available.

[JayO88]

Blockfolio still the best!

[Koloulinger]

this now coinmarketcap still popular and above blockfolio
about altcoin price information, volume transaction and more

and blockfolio only can use in android  and apple application(itunes store)

I used both Blockfolio and Coinmarketcap app
In My opinion both are good applications but Blockfolio is a lot more user friendly and has a better UI
But I like the Graphs Better in Coinmarketcap app
Also adding coins to Blockfolio take a little more time then coinmarketcap and you have to add the number of coins you bought more this can be difficult if you are mostly concerned with your total amounts.

Oh! I didn't know coinmarket cap had an app! I'll have to check that out. I like blockfolio, but I hate how the graph is based on the price of BTC. So, if BTC is pumping, it drastically affects the coin's graph.

I did not know about Blockfolio. I will give it a try. I have used coinmarketcap for years.

[disam]

just love blockfolio, and also very good support team with quick responses

[Tony116]

Blockfolio is the best for me. This app is wonderful for fast review of portfolio. Very user friendly interface, alerts and graphs are the main features of the app IMO.

[gogo1903]

blockfolio is better. I tried both app but decided to keep blockfolio

[Willitivity]

Basically these apps provide almost same functionality.
I have been using blockfolio for months now and it's pretty cool.
It provides easy functionality and accessibility.

Spent the last couple of days putting this together: MyCoinTrades.com.

It currently only works with coinbase but integration with other exchanges coming soon and mobile app as well.

Check it out >> MyCoinTrades.com

I don’t think the coinmarketcap app is legit, I read it somewhere in this forum that they don’t run any app nor do they have anything to do with a created app but on the other hand I have been using the blockfolio for a couple of months, it works fine but sometimes they do have glitches from time to time.

if there are two platforms competing to get the attention of consumers, then they will do various ways to make consumers comfortable

these two platforms compete, but ultimately we as a society that benefits

Damn, blockfolio prank me once when I checked it and saw that my coin had pumped and i was so happy and immediately open ether delta but just found out that blockfolio had some glitches. So better to check it in the actual platform to avoid misleading info.
Btw, I didn't know that coinmarketcap had an app but reading the comments here I think it's not worth a try.
