> Index funds are basically set it and forget it, so why would I want to continuously use this app? Just buy some $SCHB, $SPY, $VTI, or whatever combo of index funds you want and that's it.

Because of re-balancing. Say you invest in three index funds at a 70/20/10 split. One of those funds performs much better than the others over time, leaving you with a distorted ratio. So you re-balance to get back to your original 70/20/10. Typically you'd re-balance one or two times a year.

Ideally you want to avoid selling to rebalance, so if you're investing regularly (once a month, for example) you want to know exactly which funds to put your money in to each time to maintain your percentage split.

Fair enough, that being said, I'm not sure I need an app/community for that (i.e. a Stocktwits clone for index funds).
