MEXC Mobile App Review 2026: iOS & Android Trading

The MEXC mobile app is available for both iOS (iPhone and iPad) and Android devices. It can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, or directly from the MEXC website as an APK for Android (useful in regions where Play Store access is restricted). The app receives regular updates typically every 2-4 weeks, adding new features and fixing bugs.

The app size is moderate — approximately 100MB on iOS and similar on Android. It requires iOS 13.0 or higher, or Android 6.0 or higher. The app is localized in over a dozen languages including English, Chinese, Turkish, Spanish, Vietnamese, Indonesian, and others relevant to MEXC's user base.

After downloading, existing account holders can log in directly. New users can register directly through the app. The login process requires email/phone and password, followed by 2FA verification. Biometric login (Face ID, fingerprint) can be enabled after the first login.

The MEXC mobile app covers all core trading features: spot trading with full order type support, futures trading with leverage adjustment, copy trading with lead trader browsing, the Earn ecosystem (savings and staking), Launchpad participation, and P2P trading. The feature parity with the desktop platform is high — most actions that can be performed on desktop are available on mobile.

Charting on mobile uses TradingView's mobile chart component, providing a reasonable range of technical indicators and drawing tools. Switching between candlestick, line, and bar charts is available, as are common indicators like MA, RSI, MACD, and Bollinger Bands. While not as full-featured as the desktop TradingView integration, the mobile chart is adequate for most traders.

Notifications are a significant mobile advantage. You can set price alerts for specific coins, receive order fill notifications, security alerts (new device login, unusual activity), and Launchpad event reminders. Configuring relevant notifications makes the mobile app a useful passive monitoring tool even when you are not actively trading.

The MEXC app performs reasonably well on modern devices. Login and navigation are smooth, and the order placement process is fast. Real-time price updates and order book refreshes work without noticeable lag on a standard 4G or WiFi connection. During periods of extreme market volatility, the app occasionally becomes slower as server load increases — this is common across all exchange apps.

The user interface follows MEXC's signature dark theme, which is easy on the eyes during extended trading sessions. The navigation structure is logical: bottom tab bar for main sections (Home, Markets, Trade, Assets, Profile) with deeper features accessible through each section. The home screen provides a customizable watchlist of favorite pairs.

Compared to competitors, MEXC's app sits in the middle ground. It is not as polished as Coinbase's app (which prioritizes simplicity) or Bybit's app (which has more advanced futures tools), but it is more feature-complete than many alternatives. The main UX criticisms are a somewhat cluttered home screen and occasional inconsistencies between the app and desktop interface layouts.

The MEXC mobile app supports all account security features available on desktop: 2FA via Google Authenticator, biometric authentication (fingerprint/Face ID), and withdrawal address whitelisting. It also supports in-app security alerts and displays your anti-phishing code in email notifications triggered by app activity.

For mobile-specific security: always download the app from official sources (App Store, Play Store, or MEXC website). Never download APKs from third-party sites. Enable biometric login as a second layer after your PIN. Set up withdrawal confirmation emails so any withdrawal attempt requires email approval — especially important on a device that could be lost or stolen.

Be cautious of accessing the app on public WiFi networks. If you must trade on public WiFi, use a VPN. Avoid trading on jailbroken or rooted devices as these disable some OS-level security protections. Enable remote device management on your phone (Find My iPhone, Google Find My Device) so you can remotely wipe your device if it is lost or stolen.
