Ratings and reviews

Overall, this is a really good app. Especially since the last update that requires users to unlock to use Google Pay. I wish they made access to the wallet a little easier. Currently, pay and insights are on a menu at the bottom but to access wallet you have to go to the menu at the top right, then open wallet. Wallet really needs to be at the bottom where Pay and Insights are located.

Definitely a nice feature if you forget your wallet,purse,debit card,etc., and absolutely have to have gas or something important! Only thing I really wish you could add as a feature would be that it would show you the balance/amount able to spend on each of the attached card accounts. Just a thought, idk if that's something you could even implement into the app, but I'm sure I'm not the only person who would benefit from a feature like that.

Had really loved the app. Recent August update really screwed up though. Cannot get past login, just get a blank white screen when it opens. Even more frustrating that it happens every once in a while, even when internet is good. Very frustrating when at the register. Several times had to have someone else pay because I didn't carry my wallet in. Lessons learned. 😒
