Slow to log in the apps.

iTrade needs to improve about the application login, because after logging in the application I need to login again, always need to login twice. Then after the application update, using code from the email for log in a bit slow because need waiting 6-digit code sent via the email. For me using biometrics such as face and fingerprint is secure enough to log in the application.

Defeats the Purpose of Face ID

Face ID is enabled but the app still forces email OTP every login. This completely defeats the purpose of Face ID and shows poor authentication design. Adds unnecessary friction and wastes users’ time. Fix this.

Unable to log in

Always unable to log in properly. Wasting of time if using this app.

Ancient

Archaic security rules
Terrible design
Constant pop ups
Logs you out every time
We live in 2025 with passkeys and biometrics but the login feature is from 2015 where you have to manually wait for an email EVERY SINGLE TIME. I will switch to a new app in a heartbeat if i could transfer my shares

Login by email OTP

Pls canceled this in practice , very inconvenience

Bad

Very fxxx apps. Always sign out itself and some time need log in few times.

Prefer old version, face recognition, that time no this kind fxxxk problem

OTP nuisance

The app logs out and keep on sending OTP to login. Please allow the OTP to login once or twice a day enough not every time to login, annoying!!

App inconvenient

After update each time log in require email verification . it is inconvenient at all.

Poor Apps

Having some frustration beforehand, CGS keep sending back to login page after 30s. Have to log in twice every time. The new F2A, I have to login more than twice because the OTP have to send to email for verification.

connection bad

need log in few times ... connection very bad

Customer service

Got issue with the account and their customer service is not supportive keep asking me to visit their office. Worse trade platform ever

No out recalculate average price

Under portfolio the average buying price is not automatically re-calculated when you sell some of the shares. All other international platform has this capabilities. Also you cannot choose the stock that you bought at higher price first. It is always first in first out.

Keep Disconnected

Keep need to re login at least 1-2 times … the apps keep disconnected and jump out from the portal

Lousy App

Forever crashing and showing blank page whenever I try to click on watchlist

Unable to estabilish connection to the server

Landing page to an error message, unable to estabilish connection to the server, please try again later. This app does not work.

Stock alert not working

I’ve set up a few stock alerts but it did not notify whenever it triggered the price

Default Account Setting

After setting up the Default Account, when checking portfolio, it will not show default account..

App loading problem

I can’t even loading into the portfolio page to check my unrealised gain/loss.

Unable to display watchlist or quote list at all in mobile app
