Squirrel, the easiest and more secure way to track your Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Altcoins has been released!

We are happy to announce our first public beta.

We’ve put a lot of love into this app, and we hope you will use it as your primary portfolio tracker!

This app was built and designed on our core principles: simplicity, accuracy, and security.

Download Squirrel for iOS and Android Here → http://app.getsquirrel.io

Problem — Unsafe Trackers

We wanted to solve all of our concerns with portfolio trackers, and also dedicate ourselves to transparency, so users can have piece of mind.

We’ve used all of the portfolio trackers, and we never really feel comfortable doing it. We don’t know who might be reading our data.

Other portfolio trackers left us with these worries that are hard to ignore:

  • Are they using our data to make trades?
  • Are they sharing our data with governments?
  • Are they getting hacked? Are hackers more easily able to target me because of the tracker’s lax security rules?
  • Do they know who I am?
  • Who are the teams behind these apps?
  • If I delete my data is it really gone? Can I even delete my data?

Solution — Privacy and Security First

Squirrel is dedicated to solving these concerns in this way:

  • We never use your data for anything, we can’t even read it because it’s encrypted.
  • We will never share your data with any 3rd party, your data is your data.
  • We dedicate ourselves to modern encryption and security practices to safeguard your data
  • Nobody will ever know who you are, where you are, or how many assets you have.
  • Check out our team on our website → https://getsquirrel.io
  • You can delete your data at any time, and we never keep any of your data.
  • Only you can gain access to your portfolio data.

Squirrel Features

Charts — Dynamic, Beautiful Charts

Pie Charts

See what percentage of crypto pie each of your holdings makes up in your portfolio or in any location (wallet / exchange).

Line Charts

Explore by pinching and tapping to see historical prices in your portfolio. (There are also candlesticks deeper in the app for hardcore traders.)

Real Time Price Updates

#NeverRefresh

You don’t need to refresh the app every 5 seconds to see prices. Give your thumb a break.

Leave it out on your desk and never miss a movement in the markets.

Locations — Track Your Acorns

Squirrels always know where their acorns are, this is why the Squirrel is our spirit animal.

As you snatch up ICOs like Pokemon, you’re going to need to know what you have and where you have it. Knowing locations has been baked into our app from day one along with security features.

A squirrel that doesn’t know where it’s acorns are, isn’t really a squirrel. Don’t be that squirrel.

Import Holdings

Entering your portfolio manually is tedious, is more likely to be inaccurate, and it’s more challenging to keep up to date. In Squirrel, you can import easily with your public key from these exchanges and blockchains:

  • Binance
  • Bitflyer
  • Bittrex
  • Coinbase
  • Ethereum Address (includes ERC-20)
  • GDAX
  • Gemini
  • HitBTC
  • Huobi
  • Kucoin
  • LiveCoin
  • Poloniex
  • Wex
  • Yobit
