Crypto price alert apps compared
CoinPriceAlert is for people who want alerts on more than crypto: coins, US and Indian stocks, gold, oil and forex in one watchlist, delivered by push, Telegram or email, with 3 alerts free and Pro at $6.99 a month. Each service below does something it does not, and each page says what.

Which is the best crypto alert app?
There is no single best crypto alerts app, and any page that names one is selling you something — including this one, which is written by the developer of one of them. What there is, is a right answer per use case, so here is ours stated plainly. If you want alerts on more than crypto in one place, or Telegram and email delivery on a free plan, CoinPriceAlert is the strongest fit. If you live inside TradingView's charts, its alerts are already where you work. If you need only a single email when one coin hits one price, Coinwink does that with less setup than anything here. The table below is the evidence rather than the claim.

How these were checked
Each competitor's column was read from its own pricing page and help centre, on the date that page states, and each page links those sources. Review sites and memory were not used. CoinPriceAlert's column is generated from the app's code: the free alert limit the server enforces, the markets it prices, and the plan prices the paywall reads. Services whose own pages could not be read, or did not state their limits and prices, were left out rather than guessed at.
