### 4/5 — Works good

*2026-08-09, version 4022.0.0*

The app has been randomly logging me out and asking for a password lately. Then Apple won’t let me auto fill it in. It’s kind of annoying. Over all the app is great and very useful. I love Canvas as a bank and will not go anywhere else.

### 3/5 — Issues

### 1/5 — Deceptive app behaviors

*2026-08-01, version 4022.0.0*

This app moved money from both me and my partner’s account into an account that was negative causing us a financial hardship. Both of us are disabled. We can’t pay rent now and that will cost us the money that was negative and some. Thank you so much for putting us into a financial hardship! You’re doing gods work!

Oh wonderful, they just did it again! Are we retaliating further because we dislike being held publicly accountable? What a petty game your bank is playing. 

Transactions post latent and don’t show pending, causing transaction misinformation with balance and what has and hasn’t been processed. The system that’s being used is really bad. Most banks post pending the moment it’s run through. Most CC processors are networked and aren’t processed manually so this argument is moot. 
Overall the experience with this bank and especially its app which feels vibe coded at best…I’m going to suggest taking your money elsewhere.

After a recent experience where the bank refused to process a non approved charge. I definitely suggest not using this bank nor the app that reports poorly.

Now I’m being charged overdraft fees while having a positive account balance? I’ve never experienced anything like this with a banking institution. This feels like I’m being retaliated against for leaving reviews over concerns about the poor app functionality.

And now I’m being charged random holds for the same amount nearly every week for a “general hold” this only started happening after I experienced app devs or management retaliating against this concern.

### 1/5 — Nightmare

*2026-06-05, version 4021.0.2*

Making a payment from external accounts is nearly impossible. App’s features are close to none.

### 1/5 — Check deposits don’t work

*2026-05-19, version 4021.0.2*

Doesn’t take check deposits even though pictures are clear

### 1/5 — probably my least favorite installed app

*2026-03-11, version 4020.1.1*

I really wish I could support a local institution more but the experience is just so inferior to any major bank that its hard to justify keeping more than a few dollars here. Its 2026 and the zelle experience is still the worst I have ever used.

### 1/5 — Joint account nonsense

*2026-03-05, version 4020.0.0*

Me and my partner have a joint account and the app NEVER reports our transactions properly. Fix your app.

### 1/5 — LOCKED OUT OF ACCOUNT

*2026-02-26, version 4020.0.0*

This app has the world’s stupidest password reset UX, and it means your account is NOT safe.

Unlike literally every other web account on the internet, they do not use two-step verification. Instead they require your email, social, and account number. ALL THREE of those items are details that anyone could possess.

I called to try to get my account unlocked and I was asked 1) which job I had when I created the account and 2) when the account was created. I do not know either of those answers.

Now I’ve been told to go into a bank location to have it resolved, but that makes no sense because they will just ask me the same questions!

CANVAS: I NEED YOU GUYS TO UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD RESET PROCESS TO A MODERN STANDARD UX SO I CAN REMOVE MY MONEY FROM YOUR BANK. VERIFICATION VIA EMAIL AND TEXT IS ALL THAT IS NEEDED TO SECURE ACCOUNTS. YOU ARE NOT OUT-THINKING GOOGLE.
