  • Really Bad Update

    I don’t know why we’re updating something that was great. This past update broke a lot of functionality. I switch between TradingView and Tradovate which requires me to get off one app and into another. I get constant syncing issues now with the new update - price chart freezes, if I’m trading on demo it sometimes switches me to Live, and one time I wasn’t careful because I move quickly but as a result lost a lot of real money when I was testing a strategy in demo. Very frustrating.

  • Update made it worse

    Tradovate was bad before the most recent update, but this is just worse. How do you manage to make it worse with an update? The app has always been buggy, but it’s far worse now. The app logs me out every time I leave the app, and it doesn’t keep track of price accurately. I have to close the app and reopen and re-login each time just to update the price, and it also doesn’t save any of my settings. I guess really the only positive thing about the app is that is gives you the ability to place trades, everything else is very disappointing.

  • Why?

    Honest review from a heavy daily user: not a great update, team. LOVE Tradovate mobile and have used it extensively. With all the bugs inherent in this current version, my only question is, why? It worked perfectly previous to this. This version is maddening: if you navigate away from the app, when you return, the app is now not updated and totally off in price and PnL. You must now completely quit the app and restart to get an accurate account of where you stand during a trade. And small details are now changed and not for the better: Enable Brackets tab on/off switch is now a grayed out color as opposed to the previous turquoise when you enabled it. Again, why? Those details make a big difference. I can only think the bugs of this version are because it’s supposed to be some amalgam of Tradovate and NinjaTrader mobile? Ugh. C’mon, team, you can do better. Huge fan and want to keep it that way. Why?

  • Chart auto refresh

    Perfect app, but the new update got rid off the auto refresh feature. When navigating away from the app, then coming back to it, the chart used to auto refresh, not anymore! Disappointing that in this new era of technology, I have to manually make it refresh missing out hundreds of dollars.
  • SEVERAL BUGS IN LATEST UPDATE

    Since the last update, I have noticed many, many bugs that were not there before, such as;
    - Unrealized P/L frozen. When I am in a position, Unrealized P/L stays frozen when I switch back and forth between apps on iPhone. For example, if I switch from Tradovate to Think or Swim then back to Tradovate, my Unrealized P/L will stay at the last number before I switched apps, every time.
    - Logging in. When faceID fails to recognize me, there is no button to press to retry faceID.
    I have to manually re-enter my password. (even though I selected the “remember my password” feature)
    - Logging in Part 2. Once I am able to login to my account, I have to press the 3 bar icon at the top left of the screen, press ‘Switch to Another Environment’, then press ‘Simulated Trading’, whereas before, once I pressed the ‘Sign In’ button after entering my password, the app would prompt me to either select ‘Live Trading’ or ‘Simulated Trading’.
    - Function bugs. For example, when switching between the Orders and Market tabs (or between any tabs), the app will frequently undo the last command. For example, if I am on the Market tab and switch to the Orders tab, the app will reverse this function, and take me back to the Markets tab, requiring me to do this process twice or sometimes even three times.

  • Recent Update Keeps Logging Me Out

    I’ve never had issues with this before until the recent update. Almost every time I close out of the app. I have to log in again. That’s incredibly annoying when you’re day trading and need to make quick decisions.

    Had a great experience for many months using this app before this recent update. Please fix and I will bump the rating.

  • Update freezes, random “no account” issue

    New update is freezing data flow when app is in background. Candles would not load on return to app!! I can still navigate around the app, but candles do not update. Randomly won’t find my accounts when after returning from background. Every time I switch apps then return to TDV, I can expect frozen candles or “no account” status even tho I’m logged in. I have to log out and log back in to fix, or relaunch app to fix frozen candles issue. Quite irritating!

  • New update - major flaw

    The new update has a push notification feature that cannot be disabled. It displays 3-5 messages per minute while you are in a trade. It is so distracting, you can’t focus on trading. According to tech support, this was an intentional addition by the development team to alert users about their trade. The information displayed covers news, price action, and many other details unnecessary to trading.

    Please fix this Tradovate. You are killing the user experience.

  • You guys have to fix the latency issues.

    I had no problems before with delays, and now the app wont load the candlesticks for minutes at a time. This didn't happen before I updated the app. It used to be simple and functional. This is what happens when devs decide we need an update every week
  • Latest update is lagging and glitchy

    I’m using iPhone 15 Pro Max. The latest update is very glitchy. While in the charts and in a trade, the candles stop moving and the screen has to be refreshed in order to get current candles. Very glitchy when switching between different apps not go to the correct location it should like the previous, this needs to be fixed ASAP
