Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal recently took to X to announce a new feature of the food delivery app. As per the post, the company is working to enable customers to delete their order history. The feature is currently not available to all users, but some may already be able to access it. Deepinder Goyal replied to an old post, from December 2023, by an X user who tagged Zomato with a specific concern. The user, Karan, had claimed that he would be stopping his late night orders because his wife came to know about the same by checking order history. He added, "And the worst thing is I cannot delete order history. Bye bye Zomato or make me delete order history as when I order things."

He wrote, "For Karan and many others - you can now delete orders from your order history on Zomato. Use it responsibly. Sorry, this took us a bit of time to prioritise and build. This touched multiple systems and microservices. We are rolling it out to all customers as we speak."
