Zomato’s New Update Lets You See All-India Live Order Count
A cool new update for everyone –
You can now see the LIVE order count on @zomato for the day, right after you place your order. I just placed an order at around 11am, and the count was already over 250,000.

Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to share a “cool new update” for Zomato users. This update is an “All-India Live Order Count” that gives you an insight into Zomato’s real-time order data. You can, however, only see this after you have placed your order on the app.
This new feature has been live since yesterday on Zomato’s app. It aims to provide you with real-time data and statistics about the food ordering behaviour of Indians. Calling it a “cool new update,” Deepinder Goyal also shared that the all-India order count this morning around 11 AM was already over 2,50,000. He even added a screenshot of his screen to give users an idea of how the interface of the app looks with this new feature.
Internet Reacts To Zomato’s New Update
Netizens had a mixed reaction to this “cool new update” by Zomato that lets you see all-India live order count. Some showed enthusiasm about this new feature and mentioned how it will help provide real-time data and statistics. On the other hand, a lot of people asked how this feature is helpful for the customers or if Zomato plans to add some incentive to this new feature.
It was about 13 lacs yesterday at eod. Mind blowing adoption. India is literally feeding itself off zomato.

Makes the app interactive ig.
Also Zomato is trying to show how many people are trusting Zomato by ordering their food online on their app.— Ashwin 🇮🇳 (@Ashwin02YT) June 21, 2024
I saw 20.something yesterday. So cool. Stats are always interesting.

This will 10x in the foreseeable future, wait till tier 2 & 3 cities catch up..
I am sure @zomato is already working on a rural model as well.. Like a super app for villages..

Helps in reducing the guilt, at least to some extent

From your plate to the stats board! Watching orders fly in real-time adds a whole new flavor to your Zomato experience.

It should be available at all times, why is it available only after ordering food?
— Uttkarsh Singh (@Uttupaaji) June 21, 2024
Super interesting. Maybe each 100k, 200k, or 300k order could have some incentive for the user, and the experience can be super gamified!

Bring some offers like every 100000th order will get some free item & your order size will increase.

The rest of us are still trying to decide between pav bhaji or a Greek salad for lunch. Is there any way to know what’s the most difficult of the options of meals people struggle with to choose from?

Very cool on a fyi basis, but do you expect it to add value to user exp. or zomato business?
— Neer Varshney (@neer_varshney) June 21, 2024
What value does it add to the end-consumer?
Genuinely curious..
— Ruchit G Garg (@ruchitgarg) June 21, 2024
People receiving non-vegetarian food after ordering vegetarian.
Food orders getting delayed.
New charges being introduced daily: platform charge, packaging charge, restaurant charge.
Meanwhile, Zomato: Look at our order numbers.
