Best for Options Trading
Best app for trading options
SPX issue
Every time I open an SPX options position , doesn’t show up in my list of positions until I restart the app. Can you fix this?
Feature Request
I love price execution and overall format of mobile app.
Can you add feature to have a graph tracking price of an option overtime?
Also add a feature to make an alert on equity persistence even after being triggered so you don’t have to go set the alert after it gets hit the first time?

Trading restrictions on many stocks
I actually like the app and everything works well for me, except for the restrictions they place on trading many stocks that are otherwise perfectly tradable. It’s frustrating because no other broker does this—examples include WEX, LKQ, and many others. I was able to trade PS recently, but this week only closing orders can be executed. It’s ridiculous; they claim you can trade whatever you want, but in reality, you can only trade what the executives decide. I hope they change and improve this situation. Apparently, it’s due to liquidity issues—but only at Tastytrade.

Trade Notifications and Price Updates Need Fixing
Two long-standing issues remain unresolved:
1. Desktop platform: Watchlist and Recent Symbols often show stale prices. The red/green movement indicators update, but the actual price gets stuck, suggesting a caching/refresh issue. I’ve reported this multiple times over the years and usually get told to reinstall the application.
2. Mobile app: I do not receive push notifications when orders are filled while the app is closed. Fill notifications only appear after opening the app, which defeats the purpose of notifications.
Both are basic reliability issues that significantly impact the trading experience.

Orders don’t update
I see multiple pending orders that I changed and that were either canceled or filled. This bug is only on the iOS platform.
Slow refresh rate
When an options contract is purchased, the app is often very slow to show the update in Positions. App doesn’t seem to support cash transfer from one internal account to another, which is possible via browser version. Also, it is very cumbersome that app doesn’t update remaining settled cash BP during the day making it very inconvenient for intraday trading.

Last update broken
The last update broke the app. It doesn’t get past quote streamer now.
Non functional app on iPhone
The app requires a third part service Junior to verify identity when opening an account. iPhone won’t allow access to Julio to upload verification documents. Complete fail.
The only platform for options
Really the best platform for trading options. It’s great. But the fills super suck.
Best broker
I tried so many brokers and tasty is best, I am upset for many years I did not use tastytrade and used other brokers
Terrible on every level
This app and the website constantly has issues. Don’t keep any serious amount of money here because at some point you won’t have access to it and they will provide no help whatsoever
Bugs
They just updated the app and couple days ago and now it’s acting weird. The p/l open now shows all zeros. It is very annoying that when they update the app, sometimes it has more bugs. Thinking of switching
Not showing individual PL day sum for each stock symbol

Something wrong since the update on 5/12/26
I cannot see my positions and P/L since the update yesterday. I installed the app and reinstalled it and it is still the same. Please fix it asap! I cannot see my positions!
Update broke it
Prices missing from the app under Mrk and Trd Prc, fix required asap before trading day begins
Please test your app before publishing
It happened once again after today’s
update. Almost all columns show zeros for geeks if you collapse the columns but work fine if you expand them. It’s a so obvious bug. Please test your app before publishing. Traders don’t need the flashy new features but a stable trading platform

Bitter sweet
Although a great app for visual analysis of options trades, the IPad & Desktop apps lack any decent charting , trading tools. It also crashes a lot when you use the ACTIVE mode. Lastly, the watchlists disappear randomly when changing them . Honestly cant understand how it’s rated so high. It’s really nothing special compared to Think or Swim mobile or motive wave .

Timeouts
This a great app, however the constant session expiration and forced re-authentication is crazy. Despite requesting a session timeout of more than 4 hours multiple times, the developer has never seemed interested in making the change. Even with the 4 hours max setting there are often times where you are prompted for credentials before that time has expired. TOS gives you a full 24 hours and works.
The brokerage is another reason I only gave it 3 starts. When Tom and Scott departed, users lost a customer facing part of the business that cannot and has not been replaced. They were human, they were touchable and they were always available to help.
Example, Tasty consistently has higher buying power requirements vs other brokers for products that we all trade every day. When Scott was around, I could reach out to him and explain the difference. He would work with the risk team and Apex and get it resolved. Since Scott has departed, I’ve attempted the same. Now, I get a response that says there is nothing that can be done and blame is shifted to Apex. Something can be done, you just don’t want to or don’t know how to fix the issue.

UI is terrible, so unfriendly to beginners
I have never seen UI designed more poorly than this. This is the most unfriendly user in interface. I think I’ve ever laid eyes on or tried to interact with. If you aren’t a freaking expert, please do not download this app. Go with something like WeBull instead.
