Investors can get access to IPO shares through Robinhood, as well as to commission-free fractional shares so they don't have to buy a entire share if they want in on a pricey, big-name stock. Users will also have to look elsewhere for IRAs as Robinhood does not currently offer tax-advantaged retirement accounts. Investors can easily make stock, options, ETF and cryptocurrency trades, but it doesn't offer mutual funds and bonds, so you may need another investing app to better diversify your portfolio. Like the other apps on this list, Robinhood also has no minimums to open an account and users don't need to reach a minimum to start investing, either.

The Acorns Invests account is a robo-advisor, which suggests managed portfolios (made up of various ETFs) based on an investor's risk level. You can also set up a recurring transfer (daily, weekly or monthly) from your linked bank account to your Acorns investment accounts starting at as little as $5 a month.
