### 3/5 — Financial plan zones broken…

*2023-05-25*

There appears to be a problem with the app and financial plan zones. In the screenshots for the app on the App Store, it looks correct. In reality, once you drop below 91% you’re not ‘In Confidence Zone’ anymore, but you’re now ‘Below Confidence Zone’. It feels bad to drop 1% and go from Above, to Below. :(

### 3/5 — Great update but lots of bugs

*2023-04-11*

I get “Unable to load” after login 5 of 10 times with the latest release. The updates are great but only when stability is improved.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-03-16, version 5.0.2879*

The updated version is fantastic!!

### 3/5 — Limited

*2023-02-05*

Face ID is handy, and overview is easy to see, but trying to go deeper is a problem.  Specifically, if I want to see checking account/activity/money (and this is exact what I’d like to check on frequently), I can only see a few transactions.  I can refresh and maybe see more, but they literally disappear before my eyes, and before I can read them.  Not worth keeping on my phone at present.

### 5/5 — App no longer works

*2023-01-31*

The App used to work fine but now it no longer opens. I’ve reinstalled it several times. This last update seems to have a glitch.

### 1/5 — App Will Not Open

*2023-01-31*

I’ve had the app for quite a while now, but about a month ago the app will not open.  I have deleted it and reinstalled several times and that does not solve the problem.    Until the bug is fixed, I have to use the web to access my account.

### 1/5 — App won’t open

*2023-01-29, version 5.0.2843*

App won’t even open on my iPhone after downloading a half dozen times.

### 1/5 — Broken App

*2023-01-28*

They fixed the glitch with Face ID, but now the app won’t launch at all. I deleted  the app I had on my phone, and downloaded the latest version to be sure. Sadly, the problem remains even after restarting my phone.

 Complete Failure to Launch.

### 1/5 — New app

*2023-01-25, version 5.0.2843*

Not working right

### 5/5 — Face ID needs to be fixed

*2023-01-12*

The Face ID works great to open up the app, but when you close it, the app redoes the Face ID and opens the app up again - not able to just log out and have the app open again.  Update - January, 2023 - Working great since the Face ID function has now been fixed!

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-08-04*

I feel this must be one of those amazing apps that walks on water and shines light all through the night
 However, I feel bad that I’m not smart enough to figure it out and to try to figure out what you were trying to serve me with? I guess that

### 1/5 — ALL I GET IS A BLANK SCREEN

*2025-09-04, version 5.0.5640*

Latest update shows nothing but a blank white screen on my iPad. Please fix this.

### 1/5 — Numbers too large

*2025-04-02*

Latest update broke the app. Numbers are such a large font they don't fit the screen. Need to fix that. Need to fix the adaptive text feature. The numbers are way oversized. Roll that back until you can get that fixed please.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2025-03-08*

There’s been a problem with me being able to see my connected accounts so I cannot control any transfers in or out of my Baird account. It’s caused a lot of problems and it seems crazy that it’s been weeks and they haven’t been able to fix this.

### 1/5 — Won’t load activity

*2025-01-24, version 5.0.5278*

When trying to view recent activity, it won’t load. Only receiving “something went wrong” and has been like line for the week of Jan 20-24.

### 1/5 — You gotta give me am update if you tell me i need n update

*2024-09-12*

My iPad  says I have the latest version of your app, but when  try to open it it takes me to the App Store were there is nothing available beyond the version that is already been updated. I can’t open it, there is no version for my computer. You need a bette beta run, guys.

### 1/5 — Watch list & app not user friendly

*2024-06-29, version 5.0.4955*

To whom this may concern

Can you please put the watchlist on the home screen or the minimum make it a "Quick Action"... Having it buried in the
-> More Tab-> Research is really defeating the purpose of investing. Someone in the tech department really needs to review other investing companies to see how this app is not a good app!

App is no where near user friendly...but thank you for the option now to transfer in! Much easier that making phone calls!

### 1/5 — App is broken

*2023-12-07*

The app has been broken for some time. It's possible to log in, but the Home tab is blank and the Portfolio tab displays an error message "Something went wrong" over and over.

This has been happening for a few months, now, and isn't just intermittent.

The website still works fine.

### 1/5 — Awful app and they never improve it

*2023-10-12, version 5.0.4288*

Half the time I can’t log in and once I do it doesn’t display my account info just locks up and says “unavailable”. What a joke for a company that manages literally billions in investments.

### 1/5 — Worst App in the store

*2023-06-12, version 5.0.3471*

Quite possibly the worst app available in the store. Extremely buggy, can’t access info, and constantly says “something went wrong”. Hire some engineers to take care of this. Need to become a 21st century company already…

### 5/5 — 2024 seems to be better for Baird Online

*2024-02-02*

I had been experiencing some issues in the app here and there. Since 2024 January feels like there were a lot of improvements done. Login and overall app experience looks much better. I liked my experience. It was smooth and up to the mark.

### 5/5 — New release is amazing!

*2023-09-21*

The mobile deposit worked great along with redesign.  This is a decent app with good support and great security.

### 5/5 — Improved

*2023-05-24*

A big improvement from the last application
