Should we check our portfolio & net worth(NPS+ EPF + PPF + Gold + Equity) in daily basis? Is it a good idea or shall we uninstall those apps & check quarterly or in six months?

Quarterly or half yearly

NPS, EPF, PPF yearly once will do. Gold and Equity - perhaps once in a quarter or half yearly.

half or annual i would say for nps/ppf/epf. we would be getting sms notification too.

Depends on how you use this tracking. I have a google sheet with live update of equity and gold prices. I get a good feeling when I see the outcome of tears of slogging.

If I have a bad day, seeing that google sheet makes me feel better
