The improvements in the App has been great. Using this app is easy. Suggestions that could make it even better. On the Buy Sell page, it's good to have the current trading pair's Balance at the Top. But on the Orders & Order History tabs, it will be nice to have a default filter, to show only the current pair's open Orders/completed Orders, with sub-filter for failed orders. If you want to see all Orders you can remove the filters.

The help services or support services on VARL are pathetic. I requested that my account be deleted I sent 3 emails specifically asking my account be deleted yet that was never done. They have a delete option but the option just takes you to their useless support team. There is not even an option to check which cellphone number you are registered with and they won't even check on their backend what cellphone you are registered with also if you are having issues with receiving the OTP.

I have using the app for some time now and a few things that I see. 1. a good point I think it will be good for a beginner to use depositing is easy. 2. staking would like to see more crypto coins in staking. at the moment there are only 3 coins available for staking. 3. I see that even if I have not bought any coins it adds money to coin or if I see a coin there is a little amount left be hind. but I must say good app. if these points are looked at I will give 5 stars.
