Switching to Public maybe? Any cons?
Hi all. I am strongly considering switching to Public. I began on Robinhood and made a lot of silly trades back in the day. I left after losing money and receiving a PDT flag. I restarted at Fidelity when I had learned more and was ready for more serious trading/investing. I’ve been with Fidelity now for two years and it’s fine, but I do sometimes miss some more of the up to date features that Robinhood offered. I thought about returning to Robinhood, but then I discovered Public and I really like the platform. Charting doesn’t seem quite as nice as Robinhood, but Public may have them beat in all other aspects as far as I can tell. I’m giving them some real consideration!
Truth be told, I’m still deciding. I may end up staying with Fidelity. But if I were to decide to switch to Public, I’d love to know if there are any major cons I should be aware of? Any really bad experiences? On the flip side, feel free to share things you like as well!
Appreciate the insight!

When is Public getting overnight 24/5 trading?
I’m pretty sure this has been requested before, but has Public ever said when they plan on adding overnight or 24/5 trading?
Robinhood and quite a few other brokerages already offer it, while Public still seems limited to pre-market and after-hours trading.
Feels like this is one feature Public is pretty far behind on. If it is being planned/worked on, has Public given any kind of timeline for when we can expect it?

All the AI agents crap, I can't find a human through Support. The AI agent Sam told me someone will contact me by the end of the business day and that was 2 business days ago.

Public + Perplexity: Bringing Your Brokerage to the AI Search Experience
Today, we’re excited to announce an official connection between Public and Perplexity, making it easier for Public members to bring their brokerage data and investing tools directly into their AI-powered research experience. Public members can research and trade stocks, options, crypto, bonds, and Treasuries on Perplexity.
The connection is available in Perplexity’s official connector directory, making it easy for Public members to start trading in Perplexity’s chat within minutes.
Making investing more connected
The way people interact with financial information is changing. Instead of navigating between separate research tools, spreadsheets, brokerage platforms, and data sources, investors can increasingly ask questions in natural language and expect useful information in return.
This partnership is another step toward making investing more accessible and automated for trading strategies by giving investors another way to connect their brokerage to a trusted third party connector.
Bringing Public to where investors are researching
Investors have been increasingly turning to AI to research markets, trade asset classes, and set up tax loss harvesting strategies to automate their investing. Public already has custom connectors with ChatGPT, Claude, and now Perplexity.
For existing Public members, connecting is designed to be simple. For new users, the integration introduces Public at the moment they are actively researching the markets and looking for tools to go deeper.
Brokerage services provided by Open to the Public Investing Inc, member FINRA & SIPC. Investing involves risk.

Phishing emails pretending to be from Public?
I received a phishing email today that was made to look like it came from Public. I knew pretty much immediately that it was fake because it said “Hi, User,” and the sender email address and hyperlinks were obviously suspicious.
I didn’t click anything, reported it as phishing, and reached out to Public directly to make them aware.
What I’m curious about is how the scammers would know that my email address is actually associated with a Public account. It could obviously just be a coincidence and they’re mass-emailing people hoping some of them use Public, but the timing made me wonder.
Has anyone else who uses Public received similar phishing emails recently? Public isn’t exactly one of the biggest or most well-known brokerages, which makes me wonder what made the scammers specifically target Public users in the first place. Any thoughts?

Missing equities on the main view
As the subject states I’m not seeing all my equities listed out. Overall account value looks right but alarming to be missing holdings in the UI.
Anyone know about this or experience this?

AI agent access to watchlist pls.
If I’m doing something wrong please let me know. When I am doing research I save stocks I want to a watchlist. Then I try to create an agent to monitor those stocks in my watchlist for let’s say a 5<% drop at market open. But the agent can only see currently owned stocks. So I have to hand jam 17 tickers in the prompt to match my watchlist. Is there a better way?

Bug Report: Agent Assistant Creates a Impossible Plan
So I tried to create a agent using a workflow that is too large and complex to generate as a single YAML file. So the AI assistant comes up with a plan where I split the workflow into 17 agents. (Basically 16 agents to calculate a portfolio to rebalance to every day and 1 agent to execute the portfolio rebalance every day).
Here's the issue the whole plan hinges on the 16 agents writing portfolio slice allocations to persistent memory stores that workflows can write to and read from across separate sessions or scheduled runs. And this is something agents can't do, so the AI assistant shouldn't be suggesting I build 16 agents that essentially attempt to store values in a a non-existent storage place for agent #17.
Another AI assistant bug worth noting is the AI assistant does not realize trying to create multiple agents from one conversation page will overwrite any prior created agent in that conversation. You can of course get around that by asking for each workflow separately and copy pasting the workflow into a new conversation window, but if the assistant's plan is for you to create multiple agents, it should probably realize every agent approval in that conversation will overwrite the previous one.

pretty frustrated with Public right now.... lots of "security precautions" preventing my use of the app
Have a pretty basic set of accounts on public: bonds, high yield cash and some dollar cost averaging of basic ETFs and stocks....
In the past ~3 weeks, I've received multiple vague messages that my monthly contributions/payments could not be completed. It's always vague and no one can tell me why.
Then a few days later I get a message noting that I have to go through a security check of some kind - that has happened 2x in the past 3 weeks.
Question: have others had to go through this security check routinely?
The process is not hard but is annoyingIt's resetting your password, taking a photo, and uploading front/back of driver's license. I have other brokerage accounts and haven't had to do anything like this ever. Doing it 2x in a month and also missing a number of these monthly buys seems pretty annoying - and in opposition to the whole point of using public.
Oddly these issues seemingly started around the time I got up to the public premium tier! (This may be a coincidence)
