Get the app
The same end-of-day workbench as this site — News, Markets, Screener, Portfolio, Lab and Glossary, plus Compare, Heatmap, the earnings calendar and price alerts — on the phone in your pocket, in a window on the desktop, or as a card in a Telegram chat.
Android
Built for arm64, which covers every phone from roughly 2018 onwards. Android asks you to allow installs from your browser the first time — that prompt is normal for an app installed outside the Play Store.
iPhone & iPad
Mac
Signed and notarised with Apple, so it opens instead of giving the “damaged” warning macOS shows for unsigned downloads. Universal — Apple silicon and Intel. It is a window onto this site rather than a separate program, which is why it is small and why it never goes out of date.
Windows
Installs for the current user, so it needs no administrator rights. Like the Mac build it is a window onto this site rather than a separate program — small, and never out of date. It uses the WebView2 runtime, which ships with Windows 11 and current Windows 10.
Windows may warn that the publisher is unknown: the installer is not signed with a Windows code-signing certificate, which is a separate purchase from the Apple one. Choose More info then Run anyway, or use the browser install below, which carries no warning at all.
Or install from the browser — any desktop
Open the site in Chrome or Edge and choose Install AlfaCat — the icon at the right of the address bar, or the browser menu. You get a real window with its own taskbar icon, no browser chrome, and what you have already opened keeps working offline. This works on Windows, macOS and Linux, and needs no download at all. Safari has no such command, which is why the .dmg exists.
Telegram
Send a ticker, a company name, or a plain word like gold,
oil, wheat, euro or
bitcoin, and get the close with the numbers behind it —
the 52-week range, RSI, distance from the 50-day average, and
Bollinger, MACD and moving averages behind one button. It will also
watch a list and send a summary each weekday morning, or tell you when
something closes past a price you name.
In any chat, type @alfacat_ebot AAPL to drop a card into
the conversation.
