### 2/5 — Old app was better

*2024-04-16*

Don’t know why they changed the app. Old app was easier to use. New bill pay is a pain in the a!!

### 2/5 — I Prefer the Old App

*2024-03-17*

It was ugly but intuitive. Prettier doesn’t mean better.

### 1/5 — New App.

*2024-02-21*

The PREVIOUS version was user friendly (intuitive!). The new one is NOT…..and it took weeks to get it going!

### 1/5 — Horrible Update

*2024-01-26*

The latest update is so slow theres no point in mobile banking anymore.

### 1/5 — Just awful

*2023-05-02, version 2023.3.0.1 Branding*

This app is near impossible to use if you’re paying a loan with them. It’s literally all I need the app for and this feature has ceased to work. Definitely a waste of time for me.

### 3/5 — What happened to the Home Screen

*2023-03-26*

The Home Screen as disappeared from the app. Instead I now have two “more” buttons, one on either end of the display options at the bottom. Both are identical as far as info. I now longer can check the balance on my accounts when I log in or view recent transactions please fix this.

### 2/5 — Frequent outages and limited functionality

*2022-04-08*

The app is commonly down or just won’t load account information. Individual features are also frequently down. The app doesn’t give the robust functionality and features as compared to other banking apps.

### 2/5 — App works but missing info

*2022-03-30, version 2021.11.0.53*

The bank has VERY SPECIFIC things that need to be on each deposit endorsement and will reject it for not being exactly right. One letter is enough to kick it back. No other banks have this level of scrutiny.

### 1/5 — Auto Loans

*2021-11-14, version 2021.6.0.50*

Worst app if you want to pay your auto loan, always says contact customer support

### 4/5 — Perfect for what I need it for

*2018-04-02*

I don’t bank with Arsenal. Only have my car loan with them so for what I need it for, it’s perfect! Just go and check my loan amount and make sure my payment posted. It would be nice to be able to make my payment on the app with my debit card which is the only downside for me. I live far from the branches so I have to mail in my payments or drive a distance to make my payment. It’s an inconvenience but hey, what can I do about it 🤷🏾‍♀️

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Unfortunate

*2026-04-01*

This app is awful and glitches constantly on a brand new iphone 17

### 1/5 — Lock Out

*2025-09-03*

I have to continuously reset the password just to log in. Then, every time I log in with the new password it locks me out again. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Application crashes every day

*2025-08-29*

I appreciate the effort but releasing an app that freezes and fails when transferring money is unacceptable. This is a constant issue. Since I can’t rely on this banking application, I will be transferring my money somewhere else.

### 1/5 — Consistently Unreliable

*2025-01-20*

Consistency unreliable and slow. The old app was wonderful. I had used it for years without a glitch. New features being added to this app such as a useless “are you a human” checkbox that errors out half of the time, app loading in to different account overview screens, transfers not successfully going through. This app makes me fearful to do any online backing anymore.

### 1/5 — Consistently Unreliable

*2024-10-11*

Consistency unreliable and slow. The old app was wonderful. I had used it for years without a glitch. New features being added to this app such as a useless “are you a human” checkbox that errors out 50% of the time.

### 1/5 — Mobile deposit is horrible

*2024-09-23*

The app will crash 4-5 times to make 1 deposit. If I have multiple checks it can take 15-20 minutes to get through them. Very frustrating. This has been happening for more than a year. You’d think they would have it fixed by now.

### 1/5 — Accessibility

*2024-05-18*

Won’t open on my I-14. Keeps timeing out

### 1/5 — Getting worse with every update still

*2024-04-07*

I really wish they would just stop with this app. Bring back the old app. This is providing such a horrible experience for the bank users that it’s causing me to avoid this app whenever possible. As with every other update since the new app, the login screen is terrible and no longer does Face ID, any transaction within the app is inconsistent and unreliable. Slow loading screens all around. this is all on an iPhone 15 Pro whether I am on cellular or on Wi-Fi.

### 1/5 — Constant issues. Miss the old app.

*2024-03-29*

Constant issues with this new app. This new app is terrible. Give it up and go back to what we had. I dread having to do any kind of online banking now mainly due to the lack of consistency and overall unreliability of this app. I am having to call in to the bank, now, every time I make a transfer just to make sure it worked. 

Downright horrible.

### 1/5 — No stars. I wish i can give it 0 stars the updated app version is pointless & dumb

*2024-03-22*

Whoever decided to update the app & remove the option to pay our credit card bill online was stupid. Now i have to call in (which i did call in but the money has still not been taken out of my account) or wait 5 days to make a external transfer into my checking account then another transfer to my credit card account. Im never late on my payments so all these extra loops to make payments is ridiculous.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2025-01-13*

I love the new app! It’s loaded with way more features than the old app was, and it’s faster and more reliable! I love how my cards are in the app, and monitoring my credit score, and the real time notifications! Depositing a check on the go is a breeze!! Thank you ACU for the new app!!

### 5/5 — Great update in user interface

*2024-06-21*

Zelle is easy to access now.

### 5/5 — Best app!

*2024-06-21*

This new app is so easy to use and love the credit score feature! I also like how I can see all my accounts in one place and it shows me my spending “budget.” I would recommend to anyone I know.

### 5/5 — Great way to manage my money

*2021-10-07*

My last bank didn’t have a app. Having one now makes money management so easy

### 5/5 — Best CU around!!

*2021-06-27, version 2021.3.0.49*

Best app and locations for a cu ..If u want a cu that takes care of you, ACU is the way to go!

### 5/5 — Great bank

*2020-02-18, version 6.2.1.44*

I’ve been with Arsenal since I was 16 I’m 47 now I’ve never had bad service and I’ve always had good experiences with them!

### 5/5 — Aresenal credit union banking app

*2019-03-12, version 5.11.0.29*

Love this banking app it’s amazing ❤️

### 5/5 — Very pleased.

*2019-01-12, version 5.11.0.29*

Arsenal credit union app not only runs smoothly but professional. Would highly recommend using the convenient app.

### 5/5 — Just fine

*2018-07-03, version 5.9.1.27*

Occasionally buggy, but solid.

### 5/5 — Overall the app serves its purpose

*2018-03-08*

The only thing that would help, if i can see my purchases on my credit card through the app. Other banks that i have credit cards with, allow me to see the purchase which makes life very easy. Once I’m able to do that, I’ll definitely give it 5 stars.
