Just too basic

I only use this app because I trade a lot and paying AMC on zerodha comes out to be lower overall per year than paying per trade on groww. But god, this app is so frustrating. The UI is not user friendly at all, and everything leads to a redirect to browser. Basic information isn’t displayed in orderly fashion, and basic features like history of cancelled orders are missing. If you have been using groww, using zerodha is like downgrading from an Audi to a kia. The QoL and the whole ecosystem is just worlds apart. The day groww implements an AmC option for frequent traders is the day I will dump zerodha. Even now I only use zerodha to book the trade, all the actual R&D is done on groww before hand and all my MF are on groww too. This company is so pretentious with all its “honest” marketing, maybe they need the same energy to actually listen to their customers and implement features instead of pandering to people on social media on pseudo morality.

Response from developer

Hi, we're sorry to hear about your experience. We're continuously working to improve the user experience and appreciate your feedback. Could you please share your customer ID at https://support.zerodha.com so we can reach out?

Cannot handle volumes

This is one of the most frustrating apps I’ve used. The system shows an error saying “your order could not be placed” even though the order actually goes through. This can easily lead to duplicate orders or complete confusion.

To make things worse, customer support is no help. Instead of acknowledging a clear technical issue, they repeatedly ask for screenshots — as if users are expected to document every second of using the app just in case it breaks. The problem is on their end, yet the burden is pushed onto customers.

An app that handles orders should at the very least be reliable and transparent. This one fails at the most basic functionality. Extremely disappointing experience. Needs serious technical fixes and much better support.
