excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.

Frequently asked questions
Consumer Financial Services
Synchrony Financial is an American consumer financial services company, primarily focusing on the U.S. market. Synchrony provides a range of credit products through its partnerships with retailers, manufacturers, healthcare providers, and other businesses. These products mainly include private-label credit cards, dual cards, and general-purpose co-branded credit cards. Additionally, Synchrony offers promotional financing, installment lending, loyalty services, and more. The company is headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut, and its shares are traded on the NYSE.
Spin-Off
Synchrony Financial originates from GE Capital Retail Finance, which was founded in 1932 when General Electric began offering consumer financing. Over the decades, GE Capital expanded its services, evolving into a key player in consumer credit. In 2014, GE restructured, leading to the spin-off of its North American retail finance business as Synchrony Financial. This move was part of GE's strategy to reduce reliance on its financial arm and focus on its industrial core. Since then Synchrony Financial has become an established player in private-label credit cards, store-branded cards, and consumer financial services, offering similar services and products as companies such as American Express and Capital One.

In addition to credit card services, Synchrony Financial specializes in promotional financing and installment lending. The company also owns and operates a banking subsidiary.
