User Reviews

Many reviews praise the app for easy balance viewing and Face ID quick access, but a majority report reliability issues: ongoing login loops, Face ID failures, credentials not accepted, and frequent outages or connectivity errors (including status 400). This has made the app almost unusable for many, with frustrated users noting poor QA, confusing navigation, and missing key features like performance data. Overall, the app is easy to use when it works, but its reliability and UX need major improvement.
Pros
  • Easy-to-use interface for quickly viewing balances.
  • Face ID login provides fast, hands-off access to balances.
  • Great for simply keeping up with balances without extra clutter.
Cons
  • Frequent login problems, including Face ID loops and credentials not accepted.
  • Frequent app outages and connectivity errors (unavailable, status 400).
  • Overall unreliability: freezes, loops, and failure to load or connect.
  • Usability gaps: lack of key features like performance data and confusing navigation.

This app is very basic. I would like to see more detail in investment performance. If you want to change your investment type (risk level, etc.) you can’t do it from the app; This should be an added feature, at minimum.
