Great job
Love this new app! I did get a fraud alert seems everything is fine. Thank you for checking it and sending me an alert!
notifications settings wiped
after the latest updates, my notifactions settings were wipe and i did not receive any alerts about an overdraft. they charged me over $200 in fees. i was on vacation and had no idea there was even an issue. and now im having an awful time trying to get these charges reversed. it’s about enough to make me want to leave this bank.
Much better
This app is much faster than the previous one. Everything works and it’s quick! Thanks for the improvement.
Unresponsive
I was on phone with WFED discussing lost card with app open and looking for the last charges. Pop up came on asking if I was still there. I responded with Yes, need more time! I was signed out anyway! TWICE, this happened!!
Does not update daily
I have had transactions for a week and the app does not update my account. Checks, payments and deposits have not been posted for a while, what good is that? I don’t have my actual account balance when I need it.
More options
The app is becoming easier to navigate and more efficient. Thank you!
Antiquated confusing technology
Their new app feels like they bought someone’s second. Their old app felt like they were letting some college kids beta test at building for them. Edit, now they would like me to call them, to tell them more about what is wrong. It would seem that they may find their answer in their own logic.
It’s a Banking App. What more can I say.
There’s update after update. Most of the time, it’s fine. But some things are just not great. The bugs aren’t as prominent as they used to be, but things get moved around, or things are redundant. Also, my biggest gripe is money going in and out. If it’s drawn out of your account, can it show a minus and be in red? And if money is added to your account, can it show a plus and be in green? That just makes sense. What it is now is just silly. Other than that, it’s fine. It’s not perfect, but it’s a banking app. It does the job.
Problems
I cannot get the app to work on my iPhone. It used to work! Deleted app and reinstalled….same thing, just a blank very dark green screen. Frustrating! Same thing on my iPad. I wanted to do a mobile deposit. Suggestions?
Linked feature now missing
I enjoyed the feature where I could link my credit card accounts. This appears to not be available since the last update . What gives?
WAFed App
App is easy to use and navigate! User Friendly and makes my life easy!
Unacceptable
This is just ridiculous; simply unacceptable! There’s one update after another and each brings new issues. It’s made me change my password twice in less than a week, and still won’t accept my password; making the app not just annoying, but absolutely useless! Time to find another bank.
Needs improvement
The app wasn’t working for 3 weeks. It would get to the login screen but then after login it would say it can’t get into the banking information. There are a lot of glitches and it’s not a very good app. Needs some work.
Errors
Got an error message in the app before I could even log in. Had to delete and reinstall the app. Of course it forgot all of my settings.
UPDATED MOBILE APP
I love the new mobile app. It is much easier to access and use. Thank you!
Terrible app and costumer service
Made and account and it’s been taking up to 3 days to even open it when it’s finally opened they’re having issues “on their end” when I tried to log on , just a waste of time and money since they charge you $25 to open an account , I’d suggest a different option even Wells Fargo is better
No rotation
This new app doe not rotate with my IPAD to the landscape position. It is the only one that I can use to actually see the page. I have deleted the app for the uselessness. No thanks for the improvement. The tech team said they would fix it. Hopefully, they will make it expand to the full size of the IPAD screen.
Screen orientation
I do love the app….but PLEASE allow for landscape orientation on IPad screen! I hate that since the update that you don’t have the option.
Great Features
The system seems to come online much quicker than it used to. It used to be a bit of a lag signing on now it’s much quicker.
Update screw up app already set up
Last update deleted my face id log in set up, the code took a while to arrived and then blocked me, and now i need to call customer service
Why remove current balance after each transaction???
For years the app didn’t have the ability to show your current account balance under each transaction. Then a few months ago they finally updated the app to include that ability which was super awesome and long overdue. Really helps you neatly keep track of your finances and what is coming in and out of your account. Then just a week or so ago they removed that feature. I can not even begin to guess why. The app is so much worse now without it.
It’s not the best
Never had a bank with so many technical difficulties. There has been way to many times where I can’t even use the app or log in because it says that there’s a problem on their end.
Mobile deposit
It’s so very easy when you are always on the go and very convenient.
I’m switching banks.
The mobile app as well as the browser website are always crashing, glitching, or so slow that they eventually have to restart. This is the worst banking app I’ve ever seen, and worst app in general that I’ve ever had to use. Completely useless and makes day-to-day like exponentially harder.
Slow
Very slow to open.
Much faster
Wow. Thank you for the speedy update.
No working
Is no working
Excellent update!
Face ID is smooth and quick.
Slow, clunky, unreliable
This app continues to be slow and unreliable on an iPad. Sure hope they fix it someday.
5 STARS!!!!!
New and improved app is awesome. It’s fast, organized, and super helpful for all your mobile banking needs. Appreciate the fixes - works great!
Terrible
I’ve tried for several months on my iPhone and also on my husbands android and both can’t open the app on either. They both pop up saying error. Terrible. No updates available and deleting the app to reinstall didn’t work.
FAST
It took a long time but holy cow this new app is fast thank you. Keep building great tools
Updates don't work
Updates don't allow you to use the app. Tried reporting the issue. The page for reporting issues doesn't work either. Do not use app.
