The app doesn’t show all of the financial, cards and payments information most of the times, I have one credit card that I pay for through the app every month but it doesn’t show in my cards tab, also I have a finance account that used to show in previous versions but not any more besides the lagging when switching between pages

*2023-05-16, version 2.9.1*

For sure you guys have come a long way and some features are absolutely great and thoughtful 
The problem I am having is the UI is broken for iPhone 14pro max. The. Menu options at the bottom of the screen are now inoperable like payments transfer. This has been the case for sometime and recently it has gotten worse. Hope you can fix this quickly

### 5/5 — Cpr Card ID

*2020-03-12*

Wonderful app and easy to use it for sending and arranging between accounts, but the only thing is try to fix the Cpr Card ID expiry date update I’m trying to update my Cpr Card ID by using the app and it’s give me an error at end of process.

Please make transactions notifications possible along with the SMS notifications. Sometimes we don’t have signal coverage or we don’t use the same SIM card while abroad to receive SMSs but we have Internet data or WiFi to receive the notifications through the app.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2022-12-12, version 2.8.8*

Your app is so bad every time I have to log in by typing the password although the password is saved but the app says it’s incorrect and I have to wait for a message to confirm because for some reason the Face ID doesn’t work also.
And also I made a PayPal account in the app and I can’t use it because it always says error.

FIX YOUR APP

### 1/5 — Won’t let me create an account

*2021-04-06, version 2.7.5*

When it says Reason for opening account it doesn’t show any options. It won’t let me click on anything and I can’t proceed to the next step without it. Does anyone bother testing these apps before putting them on the App Store? SMH

### 5/5 — Apple Pay

*2021-10-05, version 2.8.1*

Thanks for the update .. your last update ability to add cards on Apple Pay please advise how ?
Thanks

### 5/5 — The app has come a long way

*2021-09-09, version 2.8.0*

The first version was a total flop. But this bank is determined to make things better. As of 2021, the app is quite solid, feels snappy and is very stable. 
I only wish third party app authentication was an option. Like Google Auth or Due. I travel frequently and my Bahraini phone line won’t be necessarily functioning to recieve OTPs over SMS. Besides, SMS authentication is less secure due to the possibility of “Sim Jacking”. 
Other than that, this is one of the best Banking apps in Bahrain.

### 5/5 — شكرًا

*2021-06-03, version 2.7.8*

اشكر الله اني في مملكة البحرين على الدعم المتواصل لرفع راية الوطن الغالي
