Pocket Option Mobile App — Complete iOS & Android Guide

Pocket Option mobile app overview

The Pocket Option mobile app brings nearly the full desktop experience to iOS and Android. You can trade binary options and CFDs, manage deposits and withdrawals, run technical analysis on charts with indicators, participate in social trading and tournaments, and apply promo codes — all from your phone.

The app is genuinely well-built for a binary options platform. Charts render smoothly, the trade panel is touch-optimised, and biometric login (Face ID, Touch ID, fingerprint) is supported. Most active mobile traders use the app for monitoring and quick trades, while doing deeper analysis on desktop.

Download for iOS (iPhone & iPad)

Pocket Option is available on the official Apple App Store. To download:

1. Open the App Store on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Search for "Pocket Option".
3. Verify the developer name shown matches official Pocket Option (be wary of fakes).
4. Tap Get to install.
5. Open the app and either log in with your existing credentials or create a new account.
6. If creating a new account in the app, paste promo code DFE359 in the promo field at signup.

The iOS app supports both iPhone and iPad. On iPad, the layout adapts to take advantage of the larger screen — making it a viable alternative to the desktop platform if you prefer tablets.

Download for Android

Pocket Option offers two ways to install on Android: the official Google Play app, or an APK file from the Pocket Option website.

From Google Play

1. Open Google Play Store.
2. Search for "Pocket Option".
3. Confirm the developer name matches official Pocket Option.
4. Tap Install.
5. Open the app, log in or sign up with promo code DFE359.

From APK (some regions)

In some regions where Google Play restricts trading apps, Pocket Option offers a direct APK download from their website. To install an APK:

1. Visit the official Pocket Option website on your phone's browser.
2. Find the Android download link in the footer or downloads section.
3. Download the APK file.
4. Before installing, enable "Install from unknown sources" in your phone's security settings (required for APKs not from the Play Store).
5. Tap the downloaded file to install.
6. Disable "unknown sources" again after installation for security.

Features in the mobile app

The mobile app includes nearly everything from the desktop platform:

• Live trading — binary options and CFD trading on all supported assets
• Charts with indicators — full set of technical indicators including RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, Moving Averages, and many more
• Multiple chart types — area, candlestick, bars; switchable from one second up to one month timeframes
• Drawing tools — trendlines, Fibonacci retracements, and basic shapes for manual analysis
• Deposits and withdrawals — all the same payment methods as desktop, including crypto with QR code scanning
• Social trading — see other traders' positions and copy their trades
• Tournaments — enter live trading competitions for cash prizes
• Push notifications — price alerts, trade results, deposit/withdrawal confirmations, tournament updates
• Demo mode — switch between real and demo with one tap; same $10,000 virtual balance as desktop
• Biometric login — Face ID, Touch ID, or fingerprint for fast, secure access

4. Type or paste DFE359.
5. Complete signup.
6. When you make your first deposit through the app, the 60% bonus credits automatically.

Existing users on mobile

2. Tap the Deposit button (usually a wallet icon at the top or bottom).
3. Choose your payment method.
4. Enter the amount.
5. Find the Promo Code field and paste DFE359.
6. Confirm and complete payment.

Trading effectively from the app

Mobile trading has trade-offs you should be aware of:

What works well on mobile

• Quick trade execution when you're away from your desk
• Monitoring open positions and account balance
• Receiving price and economic-event alerts via push notifications
• Making deposits and withdrawals on the go
• Following copy-trading positions

What's harder on mobile

• Running multiple indicators on a small chart — gets cramped
• Drawing precise trendlines and Fibonacci levels with fingers
• Multi-screen analysis (looking at multiple assets/timeframes simultaneously)
• Detailed news and economic calendar review

Most successful mobile traders use the desktop platform for analysis and strategy planning, then use the mobile app for execution and monitoring during the day. Treat mobile as a complement to desktop, not a replacement.

Tips for mobile traders

Enable biometric login

Face ID, Touch ID, or fingerprint login are faster than typing a password and more secure than auto-fill. Enable them in the app's security settings on first login.

Turn on price alerts, not just trade alerts

Set price alerts for the assets you trade frequently. This means you don't need to keep the app open — you'll get a push notification when an asset hits your trigger level, and you can open the app to assess and trade.

Use demo mode for new strategies on mobile

The first time you try a strategy, do it in demo mode. The mobile interface is different enough from desktop that placing the wrong trade size by accident is more likely on first use.

Lock screen orientation

Most charts work better in landscape. Lock your phone's orientation when you're actively analysing to prevent accidental rotation.

Watch your data usage

Live charts use significant mobile data. If you're on a limited plan, monitor charts on Wi-Fi where possible. The app's data usage is reasonable but adds up over a long trading day.

Common mobile app issues

Can't find the app in the App Store / Play Store

App availability varies by region. If Pocket Option isn't in your country's App Store, try the mobile website (which has most of the app's features), or download the APK from the official site if you're on Android.

App keeps crashing or freezing

Standard fixes: (1) close and reopen the app, (2) restart your phone, (3) update the app to the latest version, (4) reinstall if all else fails. If issues persist, contact Pocket Option support with your device model and OS version.

Charts loading slowly

Usually a connection issue. Switch from cellular to Wi-Fi (or vice versa) and refresh. If on Wi-Fi, check your internet speed — the platform needs at least a stable 1 Mbps connection for smooth chart updates.

Can't deposit on mobile

Some payment methods are blocked or restricted on mobile in certain regions due to in-app purchase rules. If a method works on desktop but not in the app, use the mobile browser version of Pocket Option to deposit.

Push notifications not arriving

Check that notifications are enabled both in the app's settings AND in your phone's main notification settings for the Pocket Option app. iOS sometimes silences notifications for trading apps in Focus modes.
