There are all sorts of ways of abusing being a limited company so it's very heavily regulated and as an accountant I've seen the law on this - it runs to thousands of pages! Only your problem if you actually start your own company, though.
Meanwhile you can't buy shares until you're over 18, because only a legal adult can enter into a contract to buy or sell them.
But for the future, bear in mind that there are transaction fees. Stockbrokers charge for buying and selling shares and it's not worth it unless you can afford a few hundred pounds a pop - then the fee starts to look reasonable. Buy one share for ￡5 and it might cost more than that to process the purchase! So you also really don't want to be buying and selling too often.
Investing in stocks and shares really is for when you have a decent amount of spare money to play with that you can afford to lose. Until then, stick to savings accounts.
And because of the risk of companies going bust, the usual advice is to have a good spread of shares. Given what I've already said, you need several thousand pounds to even start to do this in an economical way. This is why unit trusts exist. Your money gets pooled with other people's, and that gives the fund manager the ability to buy and sell at minimal cost because they'll be buying or selling thousands of pounds worth at a time. You have units in the fund rather than shares, there's a small management charge each year to pay the fund manager and transaction fees, and you get distributions instead of dividends - different name, same thing. And the value of the units goes up and down in line with the shares the fund has bought. There are hundreds of unit trusts so you can pick what kind of companies you want to invest in.
The funny thing is though, about 75% of the time, index tracker unit trusts do best. What these do is just buy shares in all the companies on the FTSE stock market index, so there's no thought involved (which makes the management charges cheap!) and your money goes into all the biggest companies in the country, who on the whole aren't going to go bust. If you want to invest in shares when you're old enough, it's a good place to start.
I can't imagine there are any apps that would do any of this - you would need an account with a stockbroker, and then you can manage things online on their web site if they allow this.

Not if you just buy shares for cash. There are certain markets, especially options and spread-betting on share prices where you could easily end up owing many many times what you originally stake. However, if you keep it simple and just buy shares for cash, then your maximum loss is limited to what you invest, plus your buying expenses.
You are protected when you own stock. For instance, if your company gets sued and loses more than it can pay, the law cannot come to you the owner, and confiscate your house or other property. The shares may become worthless, but that is all you can lose.

I'm 16 and I want to make a little money, I want to invest in stock! What I want to know is can you lose more than you put in say for example I buy a share for ￡5 and that company goes bust or something could I potentially owe ￡500,000 or any sum over the ￡5 in invested or would I just lose the ￡5? Also I don't fully understand which stock would be good to invest but one last thing is are there any Apps I can download that I can buy/sell or manage stocks from my iPad or iPhone?
