Updated right out my iPad

Your upgrades have made your app useless on my iPad. And no options to choose a compatible version. I can't afford a new iPad. So I'll have to stop using AARP. Boo!

Not as Advertised

This app is not user friendly or easy to navigate. The pages take forever to load and often freeze the screen. The print is very small which I find ironic as AARP is typically associated with Seniors in mind. The settings menu was incredibly difficult to find and upon arrival it would not allow me access to customization options. In frustration, I attempted to downloaded the app on my iPad. That experience was even worse as the app has frozen within the initial setup sequence and I can’t access it at all. I was looking forward to enjoying the additional benefits offered with my membership but I have only wasted an entire afternoon without any real progress. Unless the developers make additional improvements, I don’t recommend wasting your time or storage space on this app.

Very very informative! Thank you AARP!

Severely Broken

This app doesn't work. 1. It does not render correctly on iPad, the screen gets cut off in landscape orientation. 2. It keeps bugging the user to enter their phone number and says it is sending a code, but the code never arrives. Yes, I did double check my phone number was entered corrrectly.

Horrible over complication!

What should be a very simple process is made intentionally over complicated, and a major frustration! You have developed multiple applications with slightly different titles, which only adds to the confusion and unpleasant experience!
Apparently, AARP Now, is the first place to go, but is almost impossible to locate! Why, the big secrets- be more forthcoming, and simplify the process and directions!
