Ratings and reviews

I downloaded the app to submit a rollover check, as is advertised all over the website. Absolutely nowhere on the app can I find a place to submit it. I found more references to the ability to submit on the app but there was no link, no button, no place to actually submit the check. I ended up giving up and mailing it. Very frustrated.

Just started using this app. Easy to use, easy to interpret the numbers with graphs, seems easy to transfer funds and setup external accounts. One thing I don't like... Should be able to run/download reports for balances/fund performance! BTW, I don't know why so many are complaining about speed. There are a couple of functions that take a couple of seconds, but it's not tragic like some are saying. I work in IT; this app could be much worse. Im wondering if certain phones or net speeds are why?

UPDATE: Very responsive team! Fixed issue from my rating and feedback. App is working again & it gives me the info I need to see! Thanks for the responsiveness! On S10+, used to work nicely, but now doesn't even work! After logging in, takes you to page with gray bars that just flash until you're greeted with an error message that says, "Here's some info you'll want to look at" on an otherwise blank page.
