USAA Mobile
The USAA Mobile app is worth using for its banking and insurance services, despite recent complaints about rising insurance costs and app functionality issues.
The USAA Mobile app offers convenient banking and insurance management, with many users praising its ease of use and excellent customer service. However, recent reviews highlight concerns about increasing insurance premiums and various app glitches, including login difficulties and slow performance.
Free vs paid
The app itself is free to download and use, providing access to USAA's banking, insurance, and investment services R45. Users can manage accounts, make payments, and access customer support without any in-app purchases R9R13R16. The 'paid' aspect comes from the cost of USAA's financial products, such as insurance policies and loans, which some users find to be increasingly expensive compared to competitors R4R75R116.

- [R4] USAA banking and insurance: Banking is great, insurance is getting to expensive. Most large companies can easily beating their pricing. I will be dropping my homeowners soon because they are 1.5 times higher than Progressive.
- [R75] Disappointed: Was looking for a personal loan. Was turned down been with USAA for many years. Don’t feel so appreciative. Plus there auto insurance keeps going up for no reason. AI has better rates and for full coverage. Yes I’m disappointed.
- [R116] Young Drive Coverage: I’ve been with USAA for more than 20 years. I am adding a new young driver and the cost for insurance is more than the note on her vehicle. $3500/6 month. I’ll have to get coverage from another provider. I do not want to change, but I cannot afford this cost….which means I’ll move all of my policies.

- [R23] Slower since last update: I’ve been using this app for years and haven’t had any issues with it. It ran smoothly and loaded everything fast until the last update. Now, transferring money between accounts has become painfully slow. It takes a while loading the accounts transferring from and to. They used to show as soon as you selected them, but now it takes anywhere from 4-6 seconds. It might not
