### 2/5 — Welcome to 2026!

*2026-08-23, version 26.1.10*

Austin Bank, I’ve been banking with you all for over 20 years. I’ve had auto loans and personal loans and borrowed money to fix up our home. I want to provide some constructive feedback. Austin Bank’s mobile device experience is well behind what it should be for 2026. Your app is dated and could us a refresh.  More times than I can count, I can’t even sign into the app. In this day and age we should be able to add our debit cards to our mobile phones wallet. Yet Auston Bank does not allow that. Ridiculous !!

As a long time and loyal Austin Bank customer I really hope you consider joining the current trend and offer more services for your customers. 

I hope my feedback was honest and allowed for a more honest conversation within the company. 

Wishing you all the best !!

### 4/5 — Mobile depository

*2025-11-30, version 25.1.32*

Takes too long to hit the account when deposit is made

### 3/5 — Can’t log in

*2025-03-02, version 24.2.60*

Will not let me log in. Over and over I continue to have problems with this app, not letting me login

### 2/5 — Have to log in twice

*2024-10-31, version 24.1.70*

Every time I log. I get a message that the app doesn’t recognize me. I have to hit ok then log in. Also the app is so elementary. Other banks have programs to save for Christmas funds that are automatically deducted. We need that. The alerts also don’t work as the should in every account.

### 3/5 — App unreliable

*2024-03-03, version 23.2.30*

Works pretty good for awhile, then suddenly makes me try to login twice. Usually the 2nd time I get app to work. However, 3/1/2024 app didn’t work for me, most of the day. I think Austin Bank ought to be more concerned about their app working instead of wasting money on a new logo!

### 4/5 — Does the job but needs updated

*2024-01-04, version 23.1.81*

While yes this app does the job, it needs to be updated. The layout of the app is old and needs a new look. The banking app has issues connecting to Zelle and does not connect to Apple wallet or anything like that. Not only those two problems there is glitches within the app. It might not be the apps fault, but when ordering things it will show me the wrong amount in my account. I have overdraft protection, but it caused me to be in the negative. I’m a young adult so I don’t have the best income. Luckily I got more money in my account now so I’m no longer $20 in the negative, but it showed I had $60 when I only had $8.50. That caused me to spend more than I had so when it glitched back the next day I was just tired of the glitch happening multiple times.

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2023-12-09, version 22.2.210*

Only thing I would like to see is where I could pay extra on the principal in the app and I would give 5 stars

### 1/5 — What’s wrong with it

*2023-12-06, version 22.2.210*

App quits as soon as I open it

### 4/5 — Convenient for most things

*2023-10-05, version 22.2.210*

I love this app. It has the instant balance feature which I can’t say I’ve used very much because of how quickly I can log in with Face ID. I especially love the card alerts so I can know any time my card is used and determine asap if my card has been compromised. 

One improvement I would recommend is the ability to view all my statements from the app. It is more of a hassle to have to login on the webpage to find all my statements.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2023-09-14*

It keeps shutting down as soon as I open it. 
Then allot of times it doesn’t recognize my face. 
That’s not agrivating. Can we have an update?

### 3/5 — Can’t open the app

*2023-07-26, version 22.2.210*

I initially could not open the app.  It did not give me an option to update it. Just closed out.  After coming to the App Store to figure it out, I saw it needed an update.  Very weird

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2025-12-16, version 25.1.70*

It’s constantly down

### 1/5 — Horrible app!!

*2025-09-05, version 25.1.32*

We have regretfully tried Austin Bank for our new LLC. Their app is an absolute nightmare. You will never know how much is due if you have a loan or LOC, unless you can login from a desktop computer. Even then, a password reset will be necessary every. single. time you login. You will need to call your banker with every payment, and make sure your payment was properly applied. It will NOT be properly applied (to interest & principle) unless you do this every single time. They will charge you a late fee if it is not properly applied, and it will be placed on your credit as late. Seriously!! I highly recommend Altra FCU, Bank Of America, and Vera Bank. Their apps are so customer friendly. Everything is what you would expect from a banking app. There are no surprises! I do not recommend Austin Bank!! I’ve jumped through my last hoop trying to make a payment correctly with them.

### 1/5 — The worst

*2025-03-15, version 24.2.60*

Idk how hard it is to make a properly functioning app but this one ain’t it I can count on one hand how many time this terrible app has worked with out issue

### 1/5 — Overall Experience

*2025-03-03, version 24.2.60*

My overall experience with this app hasn’t been great. Every so often I will receive a message stating the app is having technical difficulties. The app has been convenient at times, however all the bugs and issues with logging in and having to set my quick balance on has become a nuisance. If Austin Bank truly cares about their customers, they should begin with having a better app for convenience. Do better.

### 1/5 — app rarely actually works

*2025-02-19, version 24.2.60*

i thought you’re supposed to be able to use apps you download, maybe i’m wrong idk

### 1/5 — Authentication error

*2025-02-18, version 24.2.60*

I get the same authentication error literally every single time I log in. I never log in on the first try because of the error. It’s been present since I got the app several years ago. I don’t understand how there hasn’t been a fix for this…

### 1/5 — No Apple Pay

*2024-08-23, version 24.1.70*

Been banking for years with Austin bank and we still can’t get Apple Pay or even Zelle. We need to step it up.

### 1/5 — 🗑️

*2024-06-16, version 23.2.30*

🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️

### 1/5 — doesnt load transactions

*2024-03-04, version 23.2.30*

fix it

### 1/5 — Crashes!!

*2024-01-27, version 23.1.81*

One of the worst apps I have. This thing crashes more than cars at a NASCAR race.

### 5/5 — Excellent customer service! Thanks for 20 years of service to us!

*2026-03-14, version 25.2.100*

We have been customers since 2007 I think a year after moving to Texas. We love the small town service of Austin Bank and the attention to detail to keep our accounts safe!  We appreciate yall so much!

### 5/5 — Great Bank

*2025-10-10, version 25.1.32*

I love the easy banking app. It makes banking so efficient.

### 5/5 — Your Bank App

*2025-04-01, version 24.2.60*

Please update this app.

### 5/5 — Review

*2024-12-13, version 24.1.70*

Don’t work to hard

### 5/5 — Great App! Again isn’t letting me log in!

*2024-10-24*

Your app isn’t letting me log in. I keep all of my user names and passwords written down at home. So when I’m on the roads, running errands it makes it inconvenient when it won’t let me use my face to open the app. This happens WAY TOO OFTEN LIKE EVERY WEEK. I like to look and see how much $ is left in my account allot. It’s not keeping my user name or pw stored on my phone which Is locked all the time. Why?
Update: It started working again but now it’s not showing it needs an update. I have elected to use my face id… again. Now it’s acting up again. Grrr!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2024-09-20*

### 5/5 — Sometimes makes you re-log in often even with keep logged in on

*2024-06-23*

I understand once in a while for fraud purposes to log in random times. But lately it has been a few times in a row. Sometimes the password sometimes both user name and password. I don’t use the same one on all apps so I have all my stuff written down at home. Makes it very inconvenient when you’re not at home to have this happen. You have no updates at the moment. But now it isn’t letting me log on at all due to whatever message you have thrown up. I’d like to know what is going on with my account. Also do you give the option to add our cards to the wallet app yet? Other than that, great app.

### 5/5 — Constantly not working

*2024-02-29, version 23.2.30*

There’s always something going on with this app. It rarely works. I wish it would be fixed permanently to make it easier to use consistently. It’s down 2-3 times per week and frustrating to use.

### 5/5 — Dealva Mingus

*2023-09-05, version 22.2.210*

Thank you ! Austin Bank Emory tx! 😃🤩🤠

### 5/5 — App

*2023-03-09, version 22.2.30*

The app it’s great and work most of the time I will say 9/10. I would love for the app and the bank to work with zelle and have zelle already install with the app, will make life more easy for some of us :)
