Great way to try new features

Great way to try new RBC functionality. I can’t do all my banking on this app though.

Chicken & Egg Issue with this & RBC app

i’m not sure what’s happening, but when i try to login to this app with the credentials i use for my standard RBC banking app, it says invalid credentials. So i update my password in the RBC launch app, and i’m able to login, but now i’m unable to login to my RBC banking app again with those newly created credentials - again, due to ‘invalid credentials’. So i say i forgot my password in the RBC banking app, i update it to the same password i just created when making a new account in the RBC launch app and it says that i can not re-use an old password. i create a new password in the RBC banking app, login, but then receive the message saying ‘invalid credentials’ when using these new credentials in RBC Launch. Even if i reset my password from the desktop site, whichever app i access first is the one i’m able to access - the other will say ‘invalid credentials’. there’s no room for error as i’m inserting the passwords from the same profile in my password manager, it seems like a chicken & egg issue.. can someone please resolve this so i can be logged into both apps at the same time with the same credentials?

What is this app for?

Not sure what the purpose of this app is, I don’t see anything apart from what I already see in the main app. There is FaceID but the feature doesn’t work, just greyed out. Other parts of the app show error messages. Like much of the RBC IT infrastructure it appears they lack UAT before cleaning up glaring errors.

Update, following RBCs “sales pitch” response:
I deleted the app, these bells and whistles are useful especially as I bank across multiple institutions and countries. It’s a pity that RBC can’t fix basic issues with its website ie login area not working in Firefox, online appointment booking down for a week, and much more.

What’s the difference between RBC Mobile and RBC Launch? RBC Mobile is the primary banking app from RBC for your banking needs. RBC Launch provides you access to new and innovative features we are working on before they go mainstream. Currently, it provides features like the ability to forecast your upcoming income /expenses, splitting costs among friends and family and review your financial history. We are constantly evolving this app by introducing new features, so make sure you have the latest version installed from the App Store to be among the first to try it out!

Application inutile

Elle ne donne rien de plus que l’info qu’on a déjà! C’est une application complètement inutile! J’ai enseigné sur les tableaux de bord pendant 25 ans et le vôtre est vraiment un échec! Je vous recommande de consulter des experts ou les vrais besoins de vos clients pour améliorer votre outil.

Your voice recording still calls it RBC Wallet

I called for support and your intro message says to download RBC Wallet from the App Store and use it to add cards to Apple Wallet. This is very confusing as it is now called RBC Launch as I’m sure you know.

Response from developer

Hi Brad, thank you for bringing this to our attention, we apologize for any confusion this has caused. We will make the proper teams aware to have this updated.- Chris
