Do you need a $50-a-month trading app?
Some trading apps do a lot. They connect to your broker, score you, coach you and send you notifications. If you have the budget and use one of their supported platforms, that might be worth it.
But most traders don't fail because they're missing features. They fail because they skip their own plan. AQX does one job well: it puts your stop, target and reasoning in front of you on every trade, then shows you, honestly, whether you followed them.
