### 5/5 — No nonsense

*2026-06-23, version 17.4.0*

This is the most no nonsense consumer banking account I have ever had and I will never give it up. I’ve had accounts at the big banks. No comparison on vanilla, out of the box account features: balance protection, fraud protections, transfers, and bill pay. I’m not a VIP or anything. This is just how they roll.

### 2/5 — Business account and lost checking account rewards

*2026-06-23, version 17.4.0*

Upset

### 3/5 — Simple to use but could use some tweaks

*2026-06-23, version 17.4.0*

The original app allowed for subtotals when transactions were filtered. That’s a great feature. I’m not sure how a new App did not include that feature.

### 3/5 — Liked old access system

*2026-06-23, version 17.4.0*

I can not get into my business account from my personal acct and have face ID I hate this new system

It’s great very helpful love it

### 5/5 — App needs update

*2026-02-19, version 17.3.1*

Months of issues with bill payer not functioning and no updates to app. Needs corrected!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-02-17, version 17.3.1*

App is always reliable. Love the credit score feature, super helpful. Deposit a check has saved me a ton of time. The pause card feature has come in handy a few times.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-02-16, version 17.3.1*

Keeps me updated and on track

### 5/5 — Convenient and user-friendly

*2026-02-11, version 17.3.1*

I’ve been with Citadel for quite the number of years and moved away from the area where I could do in person banking. This mobile app has made managing my funds, easy and accessible. I love how they keep us informed on any outages or potential scams. Keep up the great work, Citadel!

### 5/5 — Great Functionality

*2026-02-10, version 17.3.1*

The Citadel mobile app provides logical functionality and great information.  I was having trouble with mobile check deposits, until I learned that my camera had been disabled in my settings; all fixed now!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App crashes too often

*2026-06-16, version 17.4.0*

Gets stuck on a screen and have to close and open again.  Or I have to delete it and reload on my iPhone.

### 1/5 — Annoying Verify Identity Feature

*2026-05-29, version 17.3.1*

I really don’t get this feature. It ask you verify your identity but all it does is cause you to have a longggggggggg wait before the  “yes it’s me” pop up. A code is supposed to be sent, but that never happens.  This code doesn’t make sense, I’m sure a tester called it out but was ignored.

### 1/5 — Mr Burch

*2026-01-27, version 17.2*

Recently was contemplating moving my banking to another facility. Citadel had I.T. issues with mobile banking forI-Phone users. It took far too long to correct however they seem to have resolved the issues I was having. For the time being I intend to remain a customer.

### 1/5 — App needs update

*2026-01-04, version 17.2*

Months of issues with bill payer not functioning and no updates to app. Needs corrected!

### 1/5 — Update information

*2025-08-28, version 17.2*

For the last month, every time I try to use this app there’s a request to update my information. My information is accurate. The only way I can use the app is to keep changing my address from “Road” to “RD” and back again. Each time, I must verify it is me making the change. Calls to my local branch and to the 800# have been zero help. No one seems to care. I wonder if they will care when I move all my money to another bank.

### 1/5 — login

*2025-08-09, version 17.2*

Since the update I can't use the app on my phone to login. I get a message saying it needs to verify I'm human. Then it just keeps buffering and never moves past that screen. Used to be great I used the phone app all the time with no problems.

### 1/5 — App Notifications Push Ads

*2025-06-04, version 17.2*

Notifications for purchases and usage of account/card also push advertisements for outside services (restaurant subscriptions). This feature cannot be disabled; all notifications must be turned off.  Fraud detection is now more difficult….very disappointing move from the Citidel

### 1/5 — GPS issue

*2025-03-27, version 17.2*

17.2 grabs GPS and keeps it active even when the app is in the background. Have to kill the app to make it stop. I had to block location access to the app to stop it from happening.

Downgraded from 3 stars to 1 star after reading the developer response. Which was unhelpful and does not even acknowledge the issue exists. 

I will just leave location access blocked permanently.

### 1/5 — Needs update

*2025-03-12, version 17.1.3*

The app shows a busy while using it.  Please update.

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2025-01-29, version 17.1.3*

Whenever I tap on Pay Bills, it crashes. I asked at the bank, but they were useless. I called their tech support, they were useless. I have recommended Citadel to friends and family for almost twenty years. This app will change that.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — A great way to Bank

### 5/5 — 🫪🥴🫪

### 5/5 — Love

Love it

### 5/5 — Mobile app

*2026-07-02, version 17.4.0*

I enjoy using the mobile app so convenient

### 5/5 — It does what it does

*2026-06-29, version 17.4.0*

The mobile Citadel App is easy and convenient. My wife and I used it to set up and pay for our HELOC, and now I monitor all of my accounts in one stop. The only thing that is strange is asking for a bigger line of credit. Most banks have something quick you can apply with right through the app. With Citadel, while it may start with the app, you will swiftly be notified by email and have to go through a lengthy approval process. At least this was the case for me when I increased the limit on my credit card i have with them. User experience may vary?

### 5/5 — Great job!

*2026-06-28, version 17.4.0*

I love the app! It is indispensable! I felt the same way about the video connect and am very sad that it is nit in operation😢

### 5/5 — Mobile banking

*2026-06-27, version 17.4.0*

This banking is fantastic. It allows you freedom to advance your time.

### 5/5 — Rating app

*2026-06-26, version 17.4.0*

Easy, quick, and convenient. Big help!

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-06-26, version 17.4.0*

Able to obtain any information I
Need on my accounts and perform any transactions I need to
