### 5/5 — Solid App = Bullish Coin

*2025-11-18*

The new Aave app launch is a massive step forward and it’s sleek, fast, and incredibly intuitive, it finally gives the protocol the polished user experience it deserves. You can tell the dev team was ahead of the curve on this one. Everything feels intentional, smooth, and built for the next wave of adoption.

### 1/5 — Can’t login code isn’t coming to me to change password

*2026-06-18, version 0.2.2*

Want to get code to change password I got a new phone and can’t do nothing it will send code to login but not to change password and now I’m locked out. Someone help me

### 1/5 — Suspicious link from my VPN

*2026-04-17*

It looks like this app was promising from the beginning now that I have checked on it and tried logging in my VPN has flagged it as malicious blink, possibly gathering and taking information I would second guess or question about using this app until things clear up but for right now, I would not trust it

### 1/5 — ITS A PYRAMID SCHEME!!! You have to invite alot of friends to get higher %

*2026-03-01*

You wont get 9% its actually 5% then everytime you refer someone like a pyramid scheme you get an additional 2.5% i rather stay on dapaint. DONT ADVERTISE 9% THEN ON YOUR APP SAY 5%

### 1/5 — Doesn't do anything

*2026-02-16*

It is basically just an app that tells you to invite friends.

### 1/5 — Not actually Aave

*2025-12-23*

So this is not a functional app, no you cannot get 9% on Aave, and yes this is some Avara Tradfi bs, and not actually an App for Aave. 

First of all, without referring anyone, you’re simply giving up all your personal information to get a lower rate than stkGHO. 

If you somehow manage to convince *24* people to sign up & fully verify their identity, you get on a waitlist, that’s says you will get 9% for 90 days.  

Of course this requires disclosing everything from your home address to social security number, to Avara labs, presumably who you are actually depositing with, as Aave is a permisionless protocol which would never require this information, and would be a huge risk to user if they did. Avara is likely then in turn sourcing yield from Aave + their own funded incentives for the bonus. 

The other key part here being that for anyone who doesn’t refer the full 24 people, they are paying you less than they are getting from Aave.

### 1/5 — Fraud?

*2025-12-20*

Took my social security number then app started to bug out and wont let me continue sign up process.

Sketchy.

### 1/5 — This is a SCAM

*2025-11-21*

Aave NEVER offers 5%–9% fixed savings rates

Aave is a DeFi protocol — rates change every second.
No fixed savings. No referral bonuses. No waitlist rewards.

2. Fake “verify identity for +1%” is a common fraud tactic

Scam apps push you to upload:
	•	ID
	•	SSN
	•	Selfie
	•	Bank info

This allows:
	•	Account takeover
	•	Credit fraud
	•	Identity theft

3. The UI has nothing to do with Aave branding

Aave always uses:
	•	👻 ghost logo
	•	Pastel gradient colors
	•	DeFi terminology
Not this “savings booster” style.

4. Aave does NOT run waitlist programs

Scam apps often create waitlists to make it look “exclusive.”

**Developer response:** You can verify the authenticity of the Aave App by visiting aave.com/app. By clicking the "Early Access on iOS" button you will find that the official website links to this official app.

Aave App is introducing brand new features which, while still powered by the Aave Protocol, will allow users to earn steady earning rates rather than the variable ones offered by Aave Protocol.

### 1/5 — Not live

*2025-11-19, version 0.1.4*

Why???

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2025-11-18*

No way to use email to sign in

**Developer response:** Sorry you're experiencing issues. Please try updating the app and let us know by contacting wecare@aave.com if you keep having issues.

Thank you!

### 3/5 — Referral System Buggy

*2025-11-28*

App is nice and the savings rate is very attractive. The referral system is very buggy. I’ve referred multiple people who have verified their identities and the app still won’t credit me an APY boost. The referrals are all Us residents and have completed all sign up tasks but only some are credited while others aren’t. Hopefully developers fix this.

### 5/5 — AAVE app

*2026-08-28*

Savings Made Easy. Incredible way to make yield on your dollar. Perhaps the only way to keep up with inflation.

### 5/5 — Stacking USDC

*2026-03-30, version 0.1.8*

Good return on my investment

### 5/5 — What Avve

*2026-02-20*

The only coin lower than btc

### 5/5 — Clean user friendly App

*2026-02-18*

Setup & Registration was smooth and app user interface is super clean 🔥

### 5/5 — Future of banking 9%

*2026-02-10*

Real yields no risk, been a user on defi for years love it

### 5/5 — Can’t wait to get off the waitlist!

*2025-11-29*

Finally an app my whole family can use to save money.

### 5/5 — Can’t wait for full release!

*2025-11-26*

The app is beautiful and has nice features to calculate the growth of your savings over time if you save with Aave. It’s awesome that the team who has built the biggest and most robust onchain financial platform is the same team building this app. I can’t wait until they start accepting deposits for the high and steady APY.

After a bit I figured out that if you refer friends you can stack up APY boosts that will get applied to your savings when you deposit.

### 5/5 — 👌👌👌

*2025-11-26*

Such a clean design by a top tier team!

### 5/5 — Yield to match

*2025-11-21, version 0.1.5*

Slick onboarding process and promises a lot. If the UX in the app is anything like the onboarding it’s going to be incredible.

### 5/5 — Setting up was really smooth

*2025-11-21, version 0.1.5*

It has a really smooth UX nice design
