Ratings and reviews

Some annoying problems with this app. If you minimise the app, to use a calculator for example, it forces you to login again when you return to it. Particularly annoying if you're in the habit of double-checking figures. Text alerts from the app are unreadable. If you tap on them it takes you to the login screen. After logging in they're impossible to find, rendering text alerts pointless.

The app works well most of the time. I do have difficulty viewing a secure message without downloading. Also since installing the app on a new android phone it will not allow me to log in using fingerprint, although I have set it up in the app settings. Inconvenient having to enter memorable information every time. It always worked fine on my iPhone.

Application stopped working altogether. It just hangs on the initial screen and never goes beyond that point when the spinner/loader appears. Tried clearing cache, then clearing all data, then reinstalling - none of it helped. Nothing obvious had changed in the device. P.S. Good app overall. I'd really like the ability to reorder layout of the main screen (e.i. shuffle around different account 'cards').

What's new

We've been working on bug fixes and performance improvements, to make our app work even better for you.
