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!

Sometimes its over whelming it just keeps coming.
There are not enough hours in the day to read it all.
I love this app
This is how I keep informed on so many topics not just Social Security and Medicare but many other topics that we may not think about every day but have an effect on our daily lives. AARP helps to me expand my knowledge about things l need to enrich my life as a senior citizen. Thanks AARP.
Crashes a lot and features don’t work
AARP has never been able to get an app that consistently works. It crashes all the time, logged me out and then won’t let in, and many of the menus do not work. Even when it does work it’s very slow.
Travel Center hard to find info
Good deals, but finding your bookings on Expedia is a process and frustrating.
Worse app ever
I created a user and password verified through my email and then could not get on to the app.
Great content. Poor functionality.
The app has a lot of interesting and useful information and resources. The functionality leaves a lot to be desired. It’s very glitchy and the navigation is not intuitive. I signed up for the 30-day fitness challenge and have to search for it every time I want to do a workout. Signed up for a free AI course— good luck trying to find and launch it! When I did find it, it didn’t recognize that I was enrolled — until I enrolled again and it said “it looks like you’re already enrolled!” Umm…thanks? On that note, it keeps the annoying “enroll in auto renewal”banner persistent and it often follows your progress down the page, blocking content. It should recognize that I’m enrolled and leave me alone. Lastly, you can add another member to your account, so I added my husband. Or tried to. When I submitted his info, I got a message saying the name couldn’t be the same as mine. Huh? Closed that window of nonsense and tried again next day — his name was on the account. Sigh….
All in all, if you can tolerate and navigate around the nonsense it’s excellent content and worth the membership. Some things work better on a desktop or laptop and I’m sure the app will catch up eventually. I just feel bad for those folks that aren’t tech savvy because it’s gonna get old fast — no pun intended.

iPad
Tried to log on,took my password but it got to a screen that wants a 4 digit code but it will not let me access the keypad to put a code in
Too many ads
The app works fine and has good information but has way too many ads
Confusing
So many misdirects I felt like I had fallen into a Click-Bait website. 10 minutes to find and hit the right renew button that actually worked. Lots of good stuff overlooked for now because of this.
Games
I thought this site was for seniors, but they replaced a lot of the games for seniors with kid games.
Not User Friendly
The app has a My Inbox feature full of junk articles and useless emails. My Inbox LOOKS like it was designed to imitate your email inbox with a notification number at the inbox icon ~ don’t be fooled ~ it’s 100 of the same fluff articles you already ignored.
And , the video games are not working properly on your phone or laptop. It’s just a gimmick to get your attention and force you to watch ads after each round of play.
The entire AARP app has been designed to be a time-suck, making you think you’re productive; but you’re just stuck wasting time with pop up ads and unnecessary notifications.

Learning everyday!
So many varied topics offered every day! Love the short clips that peak my interest & curiosity…. To dig deeper into a topic I didn’t know I was interested in!
John
This app has a lot of issues with the earning points for rewards very hard to earn points anymore
Can’t get to AARP App
Keeps cycling between AARP Now, and OPEN. When I hit OPEN, it goes back to AARP Now. Frustrating.
My AARP apt
this is a great apt i'm glade i down loaded it.
Not iPad Enabled
App is definitely not iPad enabled which is ludicrous. Attempting to use app on an iPad is an exercise in frustration. Suggest updating this to both iPhone/iPad ASAP.
Problems loading games ads never stop
I have this app on my android phone and it works beautifully there. On my iPad I get endless ads while opening games and the games will not open. It seems to be stuck in a loop.
The other aspects of app seem functional. The informational articles can’t be beat.

Nice app, but no longer updates on my iPad
Disappointing that developers keep “improving” apps even when they’ve worked well all along, and suddenly no longer works on my iPad without the required update. Seniors don’t need ALL the bells and whistles to be happy with an app designed for the over 55 crowd.
It’s fine
Easy
Enough to use. Can track points and see benefits l.
