Disclosure: SmartFolio is ours, and it is listed first. It gets the same four fields as every other app, including its drawbacks.
Short answer
If you want your holdings kept on your own phone, our pick is SmartFolio — FIFO cost basis and tax lots, free, with no brokerage login. If you want dividends and earnings dates front and centre, Stock Events.
Delta is now “Delta by eToro”. Its listing keeps Delta Basic free forever, with Delta PRO and PRO+ adding auto-refreshing prices, news explanations and more Delta AI uses. It syncs with 200+ exchanges and brokers.
That syncing is the main reason people love it — and the main reason some people leave. This guide covers both kinds of tracker.
Switch to SmartFolio if
- You don’t want to connect your brokerage accounts
- You need tax-lot cost basis
- You don’t want AI summaries
Stay with Delta if
- You hold crypto across many exchanges
- Automatic sync matters more than privacy
- You use Delta on the web

Synced or private?
There are two kinds of portfolio tracker. Synced trackers (Delta, getquin) read your accounts for you. Private trackers (SmartFolio) never see your accounts at all — you enter trades, and in return nothing leaves your phone.
If tax season is why you track, check for FIFO cost basis and tax-lot records first. SmartFolio does both, with CSV export.
Common questions

What is a private alternative to Delta?

Which Delta alternative tracks dividends best?
