Upstox on iPad Excellent charts, but the chart screen wastes the iPad's space
The problem: When I'm analysing a stock on the chart screen, I can't move to the next stock directly. I have to go back, open my watchlist, tap the next stock, and then open its chart again. When screening 10-20 stocks in a session, this wastes time and breaks my analysis flow. Meanwhile, the iPad's wide landscape screen has plenty of unused space.
My request: Please add a collapsible watchlist panel on the right side of the chart screen in iPad landscape mode. One tap on any stock in the panel should load its chart instantly, keeping my timeframe, indicators, and layout. A swipe or arrow to jump to the next or previous stock in the watchlist would also help.
Why it matters: TradingView and Zerodha Kite already offer this on tablets, and it's a standard feature for serious traders. It would save time and make Upstox's iPad app a true trading workstation.

Overcomplicated redesign is ruining a once-simple app
In the name of "upgrading," they have made basic navigation unnecessarily complicated. Finding standard services and essential portfolio details takes way too much effort now. The home page is crowded with irrelevant features that many of us never asked for:
Unsolicited F&O & Strategy Tools: Pushing complex options trading strategies and trade ideas directly onto the homepage clutter is useless for long-term investors. Anyone who actively trades F&O already knows what tools they need; forcing it on everyone else just creates noise.
Intrusive "Expert Advice" & Mutual Fund SIPs: Putting aggressive recommendations front and center makes the app feel cheap and chaotic. If someone wants to start a Mutual Fund SIP, they will intentionally navigate to the MF section—it doesn't need to take over the main screen.
Upstox needs to realize that adding more clutter isn't an upgrade—it's bad UX. Making the app hard to understand for simple, long-term investors will only drive customers away. If this bloated interface continues to prioritize pushed features over clean usability, I will consider closing my Demat account and shifting my portfolio to a simpler competitor.
