You login with password and the app asks you whether you want to enable biometrics (Face ID). Upon enabling that it never sticks. Every time you log out or get logged out, it never recognizes the saved Face ID but prompts for password and keeps asking you questions on login to enable Face ID again. It’s a joke that this simple engineering problem has not been solved since 2 years now. **Developer response:** Hi Gaurav, this can happen if the device is in low power mode. Please go to settings > battery > Turn off the Low Power Mode, and check. If the issue persists, please create a ticket at support.zerodha.com so we can check and resolve it at the earliest. ### 4/5 — India’s most Fooling App *2025-07-30* I’ve never seen such poor compatibility from a trading app. The developer of Kite seriously needs to rethink their approach — the app is not even properly optimized for iPad 10th Gen. While I’m able to use apps like Angel One (MStocks) without any issues, Kite remains overhyped and underperforming on iPad. If the development team can’t fix such a basic issue, maybe it’s time they consider doing something else. Please stop misleading customers — including Nithin Kamath — by releasing an app that clearly lacks compatibility and polish.

She call to many time customer she submitted all the document but still she didn’t get access. We ware planing to make portfolio in zerodha. But this application don’t know what more document they want. ### 1/5 — Worst support *2025-07-03* Not recommended **Developer response:** Hi Vajid, we’re sorry to hear about your experience. We're continuously working on adding new features and improving your user experience. Could you please provide us with your detailed feedback? You can also write to us at https://support.zerodha.com/. ### 5/5 — Hassle free platform *2025-07-02* We are enjoying very much happy after opening an account with Zerodha Kite. Everything is going well and fine. But the only lacking is proper guidance. As the entire holding is available readily, what are the stocks continue to be hold and what are to exit. Except this, there is nothing to comment. I request you to analyse the portfolio and provide guidance even on some nominal fee basis. It is nothing but portfolio management to its long customers. I hope you will understand the importance. ### 2/5 — Chart view drawbacks *2025-07-01* In the chart view, user should have an easy way to go through all the companies in the list similar to how TradingView does **Developer response:** Hi, we are continuously working on adding more features to make your experience better. Thanks for your feedback. ### 1/5 — It has been non-interactive *2025-06-20* Having to stick to zerodha since 3+ years and being to trust over heavy volume trade. But now ticker datas sent by zerodha kite connect has weakened , due to which my automated orders are getting calculating to the old stagnant data and my algo is not able to calibrate accordingly and placing orders with the old value and hence executing at different price with the current data . When asked zerodha they are saying 3things 1. Check the forum or my coding calculation error , which I don’t have coz I was happily using since 2020may 2. There might be some delay in sending datas from NSE to Zerodha to MyTerminal 3. If still problem , go to NSE Co-location office and subscribe to them . Question is if there is a delay or some kind of undue problem when why charges 2000₹ monthly and giving hope Anyways we are slowly shuting down zerodha holding and moving to other discount broker. Update : if you think you can move into HFT , kindly choose the NSE co-location and pull dedicated NSE line and a raw C , C++ script to run your programs , and you don’t have to rely on any broker when u will have direct access to NSE HAPPY INVESTING , TRADING , ARBITRAGING ### 5/5 — VERY VERSATILE APP AND SERVICE *2025-06-18* Thank you for such Service and Support. Really appreciated ### 4/5 — Good but not a best. *2025-06-16* Everything is fine and well tuned in app as well as on laptop too. I have no any issues in last 3 years. But I have a suggestion that These days many platform are launched. And they r providing fully integrated Treding view integrated charts. So tha drawing and trendline is fully synchronised in different phone. One we ll draw line, it will remain even after used in another phone. Here Zerodha is actually lacking in this feature. So request to update this fully integrated treding view chart. Otherwise we have to switching to Dhan and Fyres app. Especially for FNO trending. Where traders use only technical trading. Hope you will seriously think over this. And thanks too. For such a beautiful and smooth UI app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Very worse Experience to Open Account *2026-08-18* I am opening Demat account with zerodha. I questioned for Bank verification. I got email that i need to give Bank statement to verify Bank Detail. And at below in email there is button called “Fix Issues here” i click on that so i got OTP which i verified and then it show me Application form i Ok it and then it asking me to put adhar number and verify i have done it and getting notification that they will review my application and get back yo me. Then again same process happening. Then in 24 hr they again email me the issue with Bank details verification and “Fix Issues here” and then same thing happening. There no option to upload Bank statement then why they giving me button like fix here . And I don’t know what i do there is no proper guidance for their query. It’s worse thing like they just query if you got resolve then they just asking adhar verification and then done. No proper system to resolve their own query. **Developer response:** Hi Aarati, this is not the experience we want you to have. Please create a ticket at support.zerodha.com so we can have this resolved at the earliest. You can also contact us on our account opening helpline: 080 4719 2020. https://zerodha.com/contact ### 1/5 — Serious order execution *2026-08-11* Extremely disappointing experience with this broker. I have lost thousands of rupees due to what appears to be an issue with order execution. Orders are getting executed even though the price shown on the chart and the market depth does not appear to have reached my placed order price. This is extremely concerning, especially when trading involves real money and even a small difference in execution can result in significant losses. I have personally suffered thousands of rupees in losses because of these executions. When the chart and market depth show that the specified price was not reached, an order should not be executed at that price without a clear and verifiable explanation. A trading platform must provide accurate, transparent, and reliable order execution. Traders cannot be expected to trust a broker when their orders appear to be executed at prices that are not reflected in the displayed market data. I strongly recommend that the broker investigate these executions, provide complete order/exchange execution details, and explain why the orders were triggered despite the displayed price not reaching the specified level. **Developer response:** Hi, this is not an issue. The price of your order might sometimes not show on the charts due to the unavailability of tick-by-tick data. You can also verify order details on the exchange website. We've explained how to here: https://support.zerodha.com/category/trading-and-markets/kite-web-and-mobile/holdings/articles/the-price-on-charts-and-depth-of-market-never-hit-the-price-at-which-i-placed-my-order-but-my-order ### 1/5 — Why hide time? We can’t see tge current time while using this app on top? *2026-07-15* Why hide time? We can’t see tge current time while using this app on top? **Developer response:** Hi Loknath, looks like you have enabled fullscreen mode; please disable it from app settings by tapping on your Client ID > Settings. ### 1/5 — Just too basic *2026-03-25* 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. **Developer response:** 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? ### 1/5 — Cannot handle volumes *2026-02-04* 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. ### 1/5 — Basic features missing *2026-01-25* Never saw such a app where basic features are missing where it doesn’t show how much %age change in stock today bring how much amount profit and loss for that day. Always show total percentage loss. Its crazy.. lots of improvement needed.. **Developer response:** Hi, the day’s percentage change is already shown on the Holdings page, next to the LTP. To see the absolute P&L change for the day, tap on the stock name. ### 1/5 — Bug in your current version for apple app *2025-12-24* After adding ichimoku indicator in chart if we pintch the chart with fingers indicator stay as same placed while candle chart you can move any direction in daily monthly cahrt! correct it! its shows wrong interpretation! **Developer response:** Hi, we’re sorry to hear about your experience. Please help us understand the issue you are facing in depth by creating a ticket at https://support.zerodha.com or contacting us at 080 4718 1888. We'll ensure to look into it with the utmost priority. ### 1/5 — Worst app glitches when the market is volatile time frame can’t change. *2025-12-05, version 3.10.2* Latest 04/12/25 2:50PM IST worst glitches in mobile app you can’t change time frames and can’t exit position. Sensex is extremely volatile from 85110 to 85300 the app stops responding. You can’t do anything. ### 1/5 — worst *2025-12-05* not working while using **Developer response:** Hi, we’re sorry to hear about your experience.

Its interface is clean, intuitive, and extremely easy to navigate, even for beginners. Everything is arranged in a simple and well-organized manner, which makes the overall user experience smooth and efficient. The app is also very stable — it doesn’t crash, lag, or freeze, even during peak market hours. All features are clearly laid out, and the fluid design ensures that every action, from placing orders to checking charts, feels effortless. Whether you’re a new investor or an experienced trader, the Zerodha app offers reliability, simplicity, and top-notch performance. It truly stands out as one of the most user-friendly trading apps in the market. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, Lalit :) ### 5/5 — F&O: A stable and very responsive platform *2025-11-09* For F&O, clearly one of the best. Never had problem with stability and basic features always functioned flawlessly. Tickers are quite fluid. GTT is also good. It can’t trigger upon very short price spikes. Apart from that the app is quite a good one. No bloating of features. It’s simple and robust. Keep it up. Trading by charts is like any other broker. I love how trade by charts in trading view is. You can set everything ( stop loss, target and order price) on chart and also visually see it on chart. Please get this feature to kite. ### 5/5 — Great job great app *2025-10-28, version 3.9.1* Great customer service and seem less process ### 5/5 — User friendly *2025-10-10* I appreciate the kite app as it is user friendly and any lay man can also easily operate it… hats off to the makers ### 5/5 — N *2025-09-18, version 3.9.1* They charge zero brokerage on delivery in equity and provide tremendous customer support. ### 5/5 — Best trading app ever *2025-09-11* Excellent platform for trading.

It is similar to make folders and put selected stocks in that folder. It will help tracking the stocks which have been invested through a particular strategy. Hope my suggestion is clear to you. **Developer response:** Hi, we are continuously working on adding more features to make your experience better. Thanks for your feedback. ### 5/5 — Share transfer query *2025-07-07* Appreciate the quick turnaround --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
