What the developer says changed (the verdict above weighs this against what reviewers report):

This version includes minor updates and bug fixes

Recurring themes

Recent Update Issues negative
Many recent reviews, particularly from July 2025, express strong dissatisfaction with a new update, calling it 'terrible,' 'atrocious,' and 'user unfriendly.' Users report that the app is now cluttered, difficult to navigate, and has lost functionality compared to the previous version. This contradicts the developer's notes of 'minor updates and bug fixes' as users report significant regressions.R6R22R25R27
Biometric Login Problems negative
A recurring issue is the failure of facial recognition, Touch ID, or fingerprint login. Users report having to enter passwords despite setting up biometrics, or the option disappearing entirely after updates or phone changes.R6R43R81R94
Mobile Deposit Failures negative
Numerous users report problems with mobile check deposits, including inability to process check images, accounts being inaccessible for deposits, or the feature simply not working.R11R19R49R67
Ease of Use (Pre-Update) positive
Many positive reviews praise the app for being easy to use, intuitive, and convenient for managing accounts, transferring funds, and paying bills. However, these positive comments often predate or are in contrast to the recent negative feedback about the July 2025 update.R1R4R9R10
Performance & Stability negative
Users report the app being sluggish, locking up, crashing, or experiencing 'system errors' during login or transactions.R2R75R90R91
Customer Service positive
Even among negative app reviews, many users consistently commend Commonwealth Credit Union's customer service as excellent, friendly, professional, and helpful.R4R5R51R52

Who it's for

This app is for existing Commonwealth Credit Union members who need to perform basic banking tasks like checking balances and transferring money, especially if they are comfortable with potential usability issues from recent updates R6. It might be less suitable for users who rely heavily on features like facial recognition, fingerprint login, or mobile check deposit, as these are frequently reported as problematic R6R11R81.

Evidence note: The recent reviews show a strong negative shift, largely attributed to a specific update in July 2025. This contradicts the lifetime rating and the developer's notes, indicating a significant recent decline in user experience. While positive reviews exist, many appear to predate the problematic update or refer to the credit union's service rather than the app's current state.

Mobile check deposit is a feature of the app, and some users praise its convenience and speed, even reporting immediate access to funds R105.

  11. [R20] 5/5 · US Mobile app: At first I was hesitant about putting a banking app on my phone. Once I saw all the multiple authentication features and instant alerts on activity that I could set up it gave me the security confidence I need to use the app.

  13. [R5] 5/5 · US The best Customer Service ever!!: Whenever I’ve called the Service Reps have been patience, professional and kind. They take the time to solve all of my concerns without rushing me. I’ve been a client for 30 + years and will remain there FOREVER‼️
  14. [R51] 5/5 · US Commonwealth: Good service, I love this bank
  15. [R6] 2/5 · US Facial recognition: No matter how many times I log in and set up facial recognition I still have to put in my password each time. It never works. Also I can’t make a deposit from my account to the joint checking account I share with my husband. I can only do it from the joint account and am constantly having to log in and out. I’ve gotten used to this new app but I still don’t like it. Things jus
  16. [R22] 1/5 · US The new app is very user unfriendly.: Very difficult to use. The old app was easy to navigate
  17. [R25] 1/5 · US Awful: Terrible! Loved the old app so much better
  18. [R27] 1/5 · US Don’t like it: Hard to view and understand. Last one was much more simple
  19. [R43] 3/5 · US Log in: I would rate the app 5 but because it tries to log me in with Face ID when I got Facebook ID turned off! When I first started using app, it was always a problem logging in but I got better and now it’s trying to log me in with Face ID and I say no! But it stays stuck there!
  20. [R81] 2/5 · US Needs improvement: Why there’s an option of face id to login the app as every-time we have to enter the password????
  21. [R94] 1/5 · US Touch ID Gone: Called bank and they have no idea of a fix. Please bring back. Just updated phone and had to reinstall app and no option for it.
  22. [R11] 1/5 · US Taking photos for E-deposit: “Unable to process check image. X Please try again or contact supp the problem continues.”
  23. [R19] 1/5 · US frustrating: Hey! i can’t deposit my checks from the app or see my account details! what’s the point of even having an app?
  24. [R49] 5/5 · US Won’t let me mobile deposit: When I try to deposit a check with my phone, my account is no longer accessible. This is after years of use.
  25. [R67] 3/5 · US Deposits: Too difficult to make mobile deposits. It will not correctly read the check.
  26. [R2] 3/5 · US Sluggish: Not a bad app but it is sluggish. It frequently locks up.
  27. [R75] 4/5 · US Glitchy: Kinda glitchy at times
  28. [R90] 1/5 · US This App crashes at the WORST times!!!!: Every time I am needing to transfer money from my savings to my checking, if I am trying to buy something at the store, if I am in line at a restaurant, it just keeps loading on and on until it shows a time-out error!!!! This is RIDICULOUS!
  29. [R91] 2/5 · US System Error: I’ve never had an issue before with this app. For the most part it’s simple to use and reliable. However, I need to access my account and it just continues to say system error every time I try to login. If there’s anything that can be done to fix this, that would be much appreciated.
  30. [R56] 1/5 · US Don’t like it: Very hard to use. Every month when I sign in to make a truck payment I have to go through multiple verification steps. Also, it won’t save my external banking information so I have to enter the routing and account number again. I’m likely going to refinance because it’s such a pain. It’s by far the most cumbersome finance app I use.
  31. [R62] 4/5 · US Too many login issues.: Even after I called Digital Banking. Annoying because every time I try login to my account I’m forced to enter a new pin. Never had problem like this before with any financial institution. This problem was resolved later but information provided was not transparent, but I figured it out. Effective communication is best serve with common sense simple advice, so that even a f
  32. [R89] 1/5 · US Awful Update!!!: Don’t update your version unless you want to lose your info and not be able to login!!!! Worst update ever! No way to reset anything password or any part!
  33. [R8] 3/5 · US VPN issues, limited viewing of transaction history: Two issues. 1) I use VPN all of the time. CCU clients that are security minded should not be encountering these issues. The CCU go mobile app struggling to work with VPN in and login process is problematic since my VPN blocks trackers and 3rd party activity requests. This needs to be fixed. I don’t have any VPN issues with other banking apps,
  34. [R33] 1/5 · US New Update July 2025: The new update is very frustrating. With the old app I was able to receive balance summary notifications without delay but now with the new update I never get any notifications from the app, there’s way too much going on and feels cluttered, and they decided to get rid of all my notes I had on previous transactions so all of that is just gone! The old app was way better and a
  35. [R79] 5/5 · US Notifications: Just wish there were notifications for deposits etc
  36. [R87] 4/5 · US Love this app! One suggestion.: I love the convenience of the CCU app. In future updates, I would love to see a notifications option added. That way you’re aware of when deposits occur, transfers, etc.
  37. [R36] 2/5 · US New update: I have been frustrated with the new look and updated app. It uses dynamic text which means I cannot see my accounts or transactions on my phone screen without adjusting my text to pre-bifocal size. Then I cannot read anything else on my phone because the text is too small. I preferred the old app.
  38. [R39] 3/5 · US July 2025 Update: The new update is terrible. Everything is so large, it looks messy. I’ll be going back to web version I guess. What a shame.
  39. [R82] 1/5 · US Mobile deposit never works: When I try to do a mobile deposit it goes straight to an error with no opportunity to enter the information or take a picture
