Bloomberg App Question

I have the Bloomberg app on my Iphone and my Ipad. The phone version allows me to see company information and company news about the stocks I follow in My Stocks. On the Ipad under My Stocks it only gives me company news. I've tried to contact Bloomberg about this but haven't had any response. Does anyone know where I can get individual company news on this app? I know they also provide basic news but I am looking for the individual companies I follow. Thanks!

is it a universal app? Meaning is there one download for both ipad and iphone? If not, then you could load the phone version instead until the developer gets back to you.

There is one app for each.

Seems to work OK for me; I correctly see pricing, not news, when I tap "My Stocks". If you don't have version 1.01, update and see if that makes any difference. If not, or you already have that version, you might try removing it and reinstalling.

Hope this helps.

Pricing isn't a problem. I am looking for news like the Iphone app receives.

Sorry, but in your first post you said you only got news:

"On the Ipad under My Stocks it only gives me company news. "

It doesn't show news when I tap on My Stocks on my copy either. I don't get news until I tap on one of the stocks and then I get the screen as shown in the screen shots:

Does that not work for you? Or were you expecting some other functionality?

Uggg, sorry about that! I flipped the screen to mirror the image you posted and if works just fine! If you look at it wide angle it doesn't have news. Thanks so much for your help!

No problem. Glad it was something that easy to fix. Would be nice if Bloomberg's "support" page would include such basic information, wouldn't it?

Cheers.
