StockTouch is a visual stock market analysis and tracking app for iPad and iPhone offered by Visible Market, Inc. Jennifer Johnson is the founder and CEO of the New York-based company. StockTouch is noted for its intuitive, vibrant, game-like interface, is consistently rated in the top finance apps for iPad, and is one of the top 5 stock market apps. ==History== StockTouch was created to give users a visual picture of the overall state of the stock market. It merges real time financial information with data visualization technology.〔 The concept for the app was based on a desire to clarify vast amounts of financial data.〔 Johnson noticed a trend among business professionals to move away from desktop tools and towards mobile ones.〔 In response, she initiated the creation of a different, non-linear app which would visually track stock market trends.〔 Johnson also hoped that StockTouch would “democratize” financial information and make the stock market more accessible to the general public.〔 To that end, Visible Market was a forerunner among tech companies to use game engine technology and animation in the design of its mobile app, with the goal of helping users to visualize and navigate financial data. StockTouch debuted on June 29, 2011 at a cost of $4.99.〔〔 It spent several weeks as the most downloaded paid financial app.〔 In order to reach an even wider audience, Johnson announced that with the launch of StockTouch 1.9, the app would be available for free beginning in April 2013.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「StockTouch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
