  1. [R9] Apple Federal Credit Union 3/5 · US Modernize: This app could be 100% much better than what it currently is. To me this app feels behind the times. It seems like this app would have been just OK the way it is now about 5 years ago. Come on APPLE FCU let's catch up please!
  2. [R12] Apple Federal Credit Union 3/5 · US Mobile deposit: The mobile deposit feature is bad. Every time I try to us this function I have nothing but “photo errors”. I go to my other bank app and it all works flawlessly. PLEASE FIX THIS
  3. [R52] Apple Federal Credit Union 2/5 · US Why I Use A Different Bank: This app has historically been very frustrating. Although not a real app (glorified web browser), there have been some usability improvements. But, the root problems remain. The app operations remain clunky like a web page and the simple action of finding your member number.. (try, good luck). The user experience has improved but not as good as others. Many get co
  4. [R65] Apple Wallet 5/5 · US 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ app. VERY convenient: I keep all my cards, tickets etc here and it has been very helpful because I don’t have to have my physical card with me anytime I need to pay. Would definitely recommend.
  5. [R1] Apple Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US Too Many Faults: For 2 weeks it has been failing a lot! It doesn’t open the application and I’ve already had to uninstall it several times. This is unfortunate. 06/20/2026
  6. [R4] Apple Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US Awful: I’d rather roll naked through a pile of broken glass than have to use this app. My god. Half the time it doesn’t load and the other half you go into the wrong area because nothing is where it should be. I’ve used Key bank for most of my life and their app is made by competent people. Maybe try that.
  7. [R13] Apple Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US Crashing nonstop: Keeps singing me out and not saving log in info. This app is garbage ! It crashes every 5 MINUTES! FIX THE APP
  8. [R68] Apple Wallet 5/5 · US Love it!: Apple Wallet makes life easier. I love the notifications when purchases are delivered.
  9. [R10] Apple Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US Terrible bank: This bank is literally the worst and has failed me time and time again. They have terrible service, long phone wait times, a terrible app that barely works, and such limited services. Jsut recently they canceled a credit card I was using abroad without my consent and refused to make it work again even after calling several times. They also barely work with Zelle. I genuinely hate th
  10. [R18] Apple Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US Horrible Useless App: Trying to pay my bills and as always “oops something went wrong “ msg appears. Always problems with this site, never fails! Very disappointing dissatisfied. Time to go to another Credit Union. Tried again today 11/14/25 and still same issue.
  11. [R48] Apple Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US horrible app: ever since the app was updated a year or so ago the app has been HORRIBLE. constantly logging me out while using it, never remembers my device or password, constantly crashing, very buggy and lagging. also the face ID is useless it never works same with the quick view. I had never had an issue before with the app until they did the huge update and changed everything. now whenever i o
  12. [R62] Apple Wallet 5/5 · US No cap!!: Hells reliable
  13. [R24] Apple Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US Just Awful: Bank at your own risk! The technology at this bank is seriously lacking. The app isn't an app, its a dashboard for their website, which also barely works. Zelle never works. Customer service is only available during business hours. If you want to dispute a transaction you have to print a form and hand deliver it to the branch. They process transactions when THEY want not when you swipe
  14. [R54] Apple Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US This app doesn't work well: It's a pain in the neck every time I have to make a mobile deposit. It always says it's a problem with the cropping of the picture of the check. If I could give zero stars, I would. No other app does that. I don't recommend this app.
  15. [R74] Apple Wallet 5/5 · US Me encanta: Muy práctico para hacer mis pagos rápidos y muy cómodo me encanta este método de pago felicitaciones.
  16. [R80] Apple Wallet 5/5 · US Convenience: Always there for you
