A summary to help you read. The sections below are the full text.
One section for crypto and stocks
#Markets is Perchy’s finance module. Open the notch and it shows one price large, with a chart you can scrub, over a row of everything you follow: coins, stocks, ETFs and indexes, mixed in the order you pick. Close the notch and a price can stay beside the camera.
One search finds both. Type a ticker or a name: “BTC” finds Bitcoin, “Apple” finds AAPL, and “tencent” finds 0700.HK in Hong Kong. Tap the bell on any of them to set a price alert.
Crypto
#Coins listed on major exchanges, priced from Perchy’s own price service, and tokens that trade on decentralised exchanges, priced from their on-chain trading pairs. Charts go from the last hour to a coin’s whole history on Pro. A converter turns your coins into 30 currencies and back.
Stocks, ETFs and indexes
#Stocks, ETFs and indexes from US exchanges and many others, from London and Frankfurt to Hong Kong and Tokyo, each in its own currency and with its company logo where there is one. Prices follow each market’s hours, and the page says Closed, Lunch break or Delayed when that applies.

Questions
#Can I follow crypto and stocks at the same time?
Yes. Coins and stocks share one Markets section, in the order you choose, and count apart: Free follows 2 coins and 2 stocks, Pro up to 30 of each. To keep them apart, turn on Separate crypto and stocks in Settings › Finance; Crypto and Stocks then get a section each.
Are the prices live?
Coin prices refresh every 5 minutes on Free and every minute on Pro. Stock prices refresh at the same pace while their market is open, and keep the close after it. Most exchanges outside the US reach Perchy about 15 minutes late, and Perchy marks those prices Delayed.
Do I need a brokerage or exchange account?
No. Perchy reads public market data. It never asks for an account, a login, an API key or a wallet, and it cannot trade or move money.
Is Perchy investment advice?
No. Perchy shows prices and charts so you can glance at them. It does not recommend anything.
Not investment advice. Market data may be delayed.
