“Hide amounts” is Stokk’s privacy feature: when it is on, your friends do not see any absolute euro amounts from you. It is on by default.
What friends do not see
- The amount you invested in euros
- Position sizes (quantity and value of a position)
In the app, hidden amounts appear as “•••”.
What friends still see
- Which positions you hold (the symbol)
- The make-up of your portfolio in percent
- Your return in percent
- The shape of your value chart, without euro values
That way you can keep comparing without giving away amounts (Compare your portfolio with friends).
Protected on the server
The protection is not only applied in the app. The real amounts are replaced before they leave our database. Your portfolio history is also delivered in a way that does not let anyone read off euro values.
Hidden from you too
While the feature is on, Stokk also shows your own amounts as “•••”, in your feed and profile. To show amounts again, you confirm it on purpose by typing a confirmation text.
Amounts in posts
Posts that show a position or a savings plan carry no amount while the feature is on. Notifications to friends about your investments never contain an amount.
Frequently asked questions
What does "Hide amounts" do?
When it is on, your friends no longer see absolute euro amounts, neither the amount you invested nor position sizes. They still see the make-up of your portfolio in percent and your return in percent.
Can friends still work out how much I invested?
No. It is protected on the server. The real amounts are replaced before they leave our database, not hidden afterwards in the app.
Is "Hide amounts" on by default?
Yes. In Stokk the feature is on by default.
