### 1/5 — Another separate app? Really???

*2026-05-25, version 4.59*

.

### 1/5 — Force update

*2026-05-24, version 4.58*

The force update led to loss of saved face id login, and i cant remember my password and now got account locked when i tried. Such a bad user experience!!!

### 1/5 — Security code not sent when I signed up

*2026-05-17, version 4.58*

Is there another way to check points?

### 1/5 — Impossible to link Triangle card

*2026-05-10, version 4.10*

Good luck to any who bother to try.  Sounds good - then it’s an absolute quagmire.  
Silly me - I admit to trying a few times.

### 1/5 — One of the worst apps I have ever used

*2026-05-09, version 4.57*

Unreliable, crashes often.

### 1/5 — Les points

*2026-05-09, version 4.57*

Je n’arrive pas à échangé mes points. Le payement additionnel pour la marchandise n’est pas accepté - mention carte non valide, malgré le fait que la carte est valide ( RBC).

### 1/5 — Login stopped working

*2026-04-27, version 4.56*

Previously it would log in when you clicked on ‘Avion’ in the RBC app. Now it doesn’t. App is now useless. Fix it.

### 1/5 — An embarrassment

*2026-04-26, version 4.56*

Unusable. Not that the rewards website is better.

### 1/5 — The app works inconsistently

*2026-04-19, version 4.55*

This app is bad. Most of the time it doesn’t apply points (which is the sole purpose of the app). Also search parameters are limited.

### 1/5 — Avion App

*2026-04-17, version 4.10*

Won’t work with my phone. Says I need to use the updated version, won’t load, can’t open it, app is a waste of time. Don’t bother even downloading it!!

### 1/5 — Why is this a different app?

*2026-04-02, version 4.54*

Why can’t it just be included in the RBC banking app?? Useless.

### 1/5 — NE RÉSERVEZ PAS AVEC EUX

*2026-07-24, version 4.65*

À deux reprises les hôtels ne correspondaient pas DU TOUT À la description et même en demandant l’annulation un mois avant et leur prouvant que les récents avis démontrent clairement une arnaque, ils refuseront de vous rembourser. Pire service client. Pire site de réservations. A fuir. Si vous le pouvez, passez par Amex plutôt.

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2026-07-18, version 4.65*

This app is impossible to book on now since they’ve changed it.  This app is now useless if you want to book a for a travel package which is very disappointing.  A bank like RBC should be able to do better than this.

### 1/5 — Beyond reason

*2026-07-09, version 4.64*

The worst . Without fail password  recovery never works . ..excessive promos flood my inbox are a sham ..this feels like exactly what  it is : ruthless brain -dead marketing with zero responsibility to the unprotected  RBC client who deserves a loyalty program that functions …Shame on you RBC for lowering the bar .

### 1/5 — No good anymore

*2026-07-06, version 4.64*

I agree completely with the other comment. Now all you get are ‘opportunities’ to buy stuff, not get as many gift cards. So sad.

### 1/5 — Barely works

*2026-07-05, version 4.64*

Update: latest update broke the travel feature; can’t get to the section to book flights at all - none of the “book now” buttons or any others are working. Terrible.

### 1/5 — No app

*2026-06-30, version 4.63*

Cannot get app update just keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-06-30, version 4.63*

This app most of the time does not display the points required rather only displays the cost of the ticket in dollars . It is utterly useless and should be trashed.

### 1/5 — Horrible update

*2026-06-16, version 4.61*

App now completely useless, you cannot look for a specific reward with keyword, forcing you so go through HUNDREDS of unwanted rewards looking for what you specifically want. HORRIBLE update. People, bring back the search bar!!! DO NOT UPDATE IF YOU HAVE THE OLDER, BETTER APP!!!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-05-28, version 4.59*

The app is terrible. The call center is worse.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2026-05-26, version 4.59*

Nearly every time I try to use this app to look at tickets there is some type of glitch or technical issue. Rendering it useless. You would think an organization like RBC could get it together enough to have a functioning app. Similar experience with their online banking site - not quite as bad as this app, but regular technical issues resulting in inability to use them in a reliable way.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-19, version 4.65*

I’m updating my review. The recent update has made navigation this app liquid smooth and a pleasure to use. Stick to one format and perfect it: less problems that way. This new version is awesome.

### 5/5 — Quality you can count on

*2026-05-28, version 4.59*

Great rewards program with a simple, easy-to-use experience. The team genuinely cares about getting it right for members.

### 3/5 — Need favorite stores

*2026-04-27, version 4.56*

Their cash back rates are hard to find. To many clicks in between, not like Rakuten where it’s right when you log in. I would suggest having a favorites section where all your favorite stores and their cash back rates are displayed up top. When your estore has 100+ stores nobody wants to scroll for minutes each day  to check the rates because we are also checking aeroplan store, WestJet store, scene store and Rakuten store. Make it simple and Avion rewards will be more useful.

### 2/5 — Requires way too many updates

*2026-06-29, version 4.63*

Every time I open this app I have to update it, even if it’s been a couple weeks since the last time I checked it!

### 2/5 — Poor

*2026-06-26, version 4.63*

App routinely crashes. I’ve never been able to browse longer than 15 minutes.

### 2/5 — Kee

*2026-06-26, version 4.63*

It used to work fine then I’m not sure what went wrong. Bring back the old IT guy, this one’s weird

### 2/5 — Convert to Ba points

*2026-06-03, version 4.60*

The connection to convert from Avionics to BA Avios keeps failing…

### 2/5 — Extremely slow

*2026-04-29, version 4.56*

Everything from searching rewards to ordering them and actually receiving them is extremely slow. Even e-gift cards take multiple days to finally be received- and physical cards… forget about it!!! Give yourself 2 weeks (at least) for any physical cards/ item order as these guys will move at a glacial pace to fulfill anything you want.

### 2/5 — Still doesn’t allow login through the RBC app.

*2026-04-28, version 4.56*

After numerous tries to login through the RBC app typing in the CORRECT password it still wouldn’t allow login. Tried it through the RBC website and it worked for a bit and then kicked me off both sites.

### 2/5 — Never works

*2026-03-07, version 4.52*

Terrible. I’ve never used an app that had so many glitches and only works 20% of the time. It requires constant updates, and I’m not sure what they do, because I still have to go onto the website in order to actually get a trip booked!
