Truist Mobile
Truist Mobile is generally worth using for its convenience in daily banking tasks, but some users experience significant issues with check deposits, transfers, and app stability, making its value inconsistent.
Truist Mobile offers convenient banking from anywhere, allowing users to manage accounts, pay bills, and deposit checks easily. However, issues with check auto-capture, slow transfers, and frequent app maintenance can detract from the overall user experience.
Free vs paid
The app itself is free to download and use for all banking functions. However, some users report a $3.00 fee for transferring money to another bank, which also takes several days to process R25. There are also complaints about overdraft fees R57R102 and general bank fees R55.

Based on the reviews, there is no explicit 'paid tier' for the app itself. The in-app purchases listed are likely for bank-related services or fees, not app features. Therefore, it is not worth 'paying' for the app, but rather understanding the fees associated with certain banking transactions.
You should skip using Truist Mobile if you frequently need to transfer money to external banks quickly and without fees, as a $3.00 fee and multi-day processing time have been reported R25. Also, if you rely heavily on mobile check deposits and expect seamless auto-capture, you might find the app frustrating due to frequent issues R72R198R221.
Evidence note: The reviews are heavily skewed towards positive ratings (4.8 lifetime rating), with many generic 'great app' comments. Negative reviews often highlight specific functional issues or fee complaints. The in-app purchase price points are listed on the product page but are not directly linked to specific app features or subscriptions in the reviews, making it difficult to assess their value.

- [R25] Transfer: Not happy that it cost $3.00 to transfer money to another bank to make a truck payment, and it takes a few days to transfer, if I’m paying for it, it should be by like next day or immediately
- [R57] Truist Mobile App: Love this app can check my balance anytime day or night and transfer monies between accounts to cover myself before overdraft charges are issued. Only thing I HATE is you charging $5.00 over limit fees I was unaware of just for transferring monies from one acct to another and at CHRISTMAS!!!!😡😡😡😡Otherwise it would have been 5* rating!!
- [R102] Overdraft: I've been having some medical issues and there's been a couple times in the last month where my check didn't go through in time to cover other Medical? or other bills that I paid and I've been hit with overdraft fees. I think if you're gonna go into negative they should give you like a heads up the app if possible to give you like an hour or two to transfer money if you're gonna overdra

- [R34] Mobile Deposit: I’m really enjoying the convenience of mobile deposit. Thank you!, I would like it even better if Autocapture worked more often. For me it rarely works.

It works all the time and I’m satisfied.

So I remain grateful and v
- [R264] Not fit for overseas customers: It is impossible to make anything but small transfers from Truist unless you have a wire pin. Unfortunately, when Truist took over from SunTrust they stopped sending out wire pins by post which means the only way to get one is to call in a local branch. It is almost unbelievable that customer reps don’t seem to see the problem for a non-US resident, do they seriousl
