### 1/5 — Constantly crashes

*2021-02-04, version 2.0.0*

The platform is great on computer but this app is horrible.

### 1/5 — Terrible app, terrible UI

*2020-12-23, version 2.0.0*

I’ve been complaining about their mobile app, their terrible UI for almost a decade now, nothing changes. When I was in college, I met a recruiter from Questrade, and was told that they outsource their core engineering to other countries, while keeping all the suits domestic. Classic losing strategy, instead of keep hiring useless sales and passing out bonuses for your self congratulatory sessions, why don’t you invest in your app that has been terrible for so long? Where is the money going?

### 1/5 — Very poor quality app

*2020-12-15, version 2.0.0*

This app needs an update. Very poor quality and often times it doesn’t open for me. App UI is also very ancient. Other competitors are doing much better and their apps are much more advanced.

### 1/5 — App continues to freeze

*2020-09-15, version 2.0.0*

I love to using Questrade; however, recently the app consistently freezes, the trading page does not load. The same issues also occur in their desktop /web browser app. It very frustrating, because u can never make trades on time. Hopefully it’s fixed soon.

### 1/5 — Inferior phone app

*2020-09-14, version 2.0.0*

Serious problems that have caused me losses in trades

1. Sign on page doesn’t lead to home page after putting in login credentials. Gets lost somewhere. Killing app and relaunching also doesn’t help. 

2. Once inside, the orders page showing the list of orders doesn’t show up well. The order you have in mind disappears to end of page or beginning of the page when you’re about to go click it. Highly annoying. 

Both these problems have severely hampered my trading experience. And you charge $5 per trade. Shame!

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

So many better more reliable alternatives.

### 1/5 — Any other broker

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

Questrade will call the cops if you complain about them.

### 1/5 — 🐌🐌🐌

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

Word on the street is that they make customers with poor experiences sign NDA's. 

Good luck if you decide to use them 👍🏼

### 1/5 — Appallingly bad.

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

Horrific customer service, user interface is constantly unresponsive and having issues, lost over $14000 due to outages, for which they have offered nothing. Do not download this app, do not trust this company with your money. I have been attempting to withdraw funds for over three weeks, to no avail. I have no other words to describe the innumerable shortcomings of this service. Simply appalling. Ineffable.

### 1/5 — Constant technical problems

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

Will never use thier service again and suggest you do the same

### 1/5 — WSB got shooters

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

Questrade supports nazis

### 1/5 — Quest trade will call the police on you if you talk bad about them online.

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

Seriously. They sent the cops to a guys house who posted a negative Reddit post about an outage that cost him money.

### 1/5 — Go elsewhere

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

Poor Customer service, unreliable brokerage during heavy trading periods. Would recommend one of the other big brokers

### 1/5 — Never use Questtrade

*2020-04-03, version 1.2.0*

absolute garbage customer service and an enormous amount of technical issues. Worst brokerage ever. I would stick my money in a dirt hole and set it on fire before trusting it with questtrade

### 1/5 — Unreliable and unprofessional

*2020-04-02, version 1.2.0*

Very bad app UI, Lots of technical issues. Don’t trust your money to this app.

### 1/5 — App that doesn’t work 80% of the time

*2023-06-15*

I have been using the app for more than a couple years now. For 80% of first year nothing would load, I would just encounter a white screen and that would be it. This year things a little different, it makes me log in with Face ID 5 separate times and then it’s a coin flip whether it loads in 20 seconds. I have not used a worse app.

### 1/5 — Terrible .. very slow and not an easy UI to navigate

*2022-10-31, version 2.0.0*

Please address the performance issue and the UI

### 1/5 — Slow and terrible

*2022-03-09, version 2.0.0*

Slow and terrible app. Tales forever to open. Useless app. Why can’t you guys upgrade it asap.

### 1/5 — review for Questrade itself

*2022-01-28, version 2.0.0*

the company itself is changing alot and has hidden fees (example, they told me international wire fee is 40$ but I received 60$ less, and they blamed it as a receiver fee- which was not true, anyhow, end up just getting tired of them and closed my accounts)
the app is ok, down sides are 
1- some times a lot of lag and it keeps waiting to receive responses
2-sometimes asks for credentials to log in and after few seconds it says "you successfully logged out!" -> dude, I was already logged out and needed to log in! seriously!?! and it happens few times in the row so I have to kill the process and load it again!

but the company it self is not recommended, many hidden fees

### 1/5 — App isn’t great

*2021-10-21, version 2.0.0*

The app logs you out multiple times after asking you to enter the password. It also just doesn’t load the UI half of the time. Prob one of the worst banking related apps out there

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2021-10-13, version 2.0.0*

The software too slow to login

### 1/5 — Terrible app performance.

*2021-05-31, version 2.0.0*

Slow, slow, slow. Where it isn’t slow, it’s unresponsive. No apparent effort at design.   Now, it’s making me login twice, insisting that I logged out in the first instance. Hey Questrade - wake up!!

### 1/5 — Canadians deserve better

*2021-04-11, version 2.0.0*

I wish we had Robinhood and less protectionism.

### 1/5 — Ridiculously slow

*2021-02-24, version 2.0.0*

Your app is terribly slow and its UI is horrible. Upgrade it or I will move to other brokers. You collect commission fees and this is what we get?

### 2/5 — Terrible

*2017-06-16, version 1.0.1*

It's a slow, unresponsive app that isn't even native iOS. No touch id, the loading spinner comes on every time you move between menus. They have miraculously managed to make the app worse than the IQ app.
