This app is useless. ### 1/5 — 1 star is too many *2026-01-21, version 8.0.9* Have annuities against most advice from colleagues and although its worked well for me the app is useless. Fortunately can still access directly online. ### 3/5 — Verify, verify, very *2025-12-28, version 8.0.9* Every single time I started to hate this app and the owner, please fix it ### 3/5 — UI leaves something to be desired *2025-12-10, version 8.0.9* I mainly use the app to log in to check my account balances. I realize that two-factor authentication is for my protection but it’s a PITA and I particularly dislike that the “resend code” option is right below where you type the code and the “verify” option is below that (sometimes way below that). It’s easy to get confused and tap resend when you meant to verify. ### 1/5 — Unable to login *2025-10-23, version 8.0.7* The app’s validation system is not working so unable to login. What good is it at this point? Please fix this problem. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2025-10-10, version 8.0.7* Just updated this app and it’s horrible! Font is like 70. Please go back! its horrible!!! ### 2/5 — Still lacking *2025-10-10, version 8.0.7* Everything loads really slowly. Face ID doesn’t work. Can’t enable/disable it and it won’t work when you go to sign in. Education tab doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — New App *2025-08-27, version 8.0.6* Fire your app developer. It is terrible.!! ### 1/5 — Corebridge is Terrible! *2025-08-27, version 8.0.6* Terrible app ### 1/5 — Updated *2025-08-27, version 8.0.6* After recent update as of 8/26 and 8/27 today app won’t open, before update I had no issue opening up the app ### 3/5 — The app doesn’t work after update on August 26 *2025-08-27, version 8.0.6* At least they try to fix it ### 4/5 — App fixed!! *2025-08-27, version 8.0.6* Thank you, Corbridge for updating your app quickly! It now opens in iOS 18.6.2. ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2025-08-26, version 8.0.6* Was directed by the app to download an update a day or so after I was required to update it. Worked then. Today, upgraded, click on app nothing. Starts to open then doesn’t. Has happened many times. Tried deleting and updating. Never opens. Infuriating. ### 1/5 — Terrible App *2025-08-26, version 8.0.6* App worked fine until update required. Now it closes as soon as you open it. Can’t access my information. Deleted and reinstalled, restarted phone, nothing works. ### 1/5 — Kept crashing after the update *2025-08-26, version 8.0.5* Updated today and the app keeps crashing. Can't open it! ### 1/5 — Won’t open *2025-08-26, version 8.0.5* This update won’t open on my iPhone ### 1/5 — Not working again *2025-08-26, version 8.0.5* The app had me updated and as soon as I did, it won’t open even to let me sign in. I constantly have issues with the app not logging in or pulling up my accounts. Frustrating. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-08-26, version 8.0.5* New update will not open - has not opened on my IPhone 14 since I updated to iOS 18.6.2 ### 1/5 — Core failure *2025-08-26, version 8.0.5* Updated today, no longer works. Cannot open, just disappears. Tried deleting / restarting phone twice, nothing. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Please *2026-07-21, version 8.2.0* Fix your app ### 1/5 — Can’t log in *2026-07-10, version 8.1.3* Same as others, I can only use the website to access my account. App is useless. ### 1/5 — Login challenge *2026-07-06, version 8.1.3* Wish the app was more reliable.. always logged out and needs a new password ### 1/5 — Have to reset password every time I log in! *2026-06-14, version 8.1.3* This is crazy! Every time I want to log in I have to reset my password. And the password can't be even remotely similar to the last one. This has to be the most annoying app I've ever used. I get requiring periodic updates but this makes me want to throw my phone out the window. And please at least put a prompt saying to update password, not that you're entering the wrong password! Once you're on the app you can't even make many changes to your account. Horrible! ### 1/5 — Unable to log in *2026-06-11, version 8.1.3* Website works, so it’s not my credentials. App is terrible. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-04-30, version 8.1.3* Can’t get in on my phone ### 1/5 — Useless & out of date data *2026-04-29, version 8.1.3* Other than end of day account values, this app is useless! The YTD percentages a month or more out dat and incorrect. There is nothing that the app offers functionally. Recommend deleting this embarrassment representing a company like Corebridge (Valic) and hire competent professionals to totally recreate an app of value and function. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-04-26, version 8.1.3* Absolutely useless app. Gives no information other than a balance. I would give it zero stars if possible. ### 1/5 — Can’t Even Sign In *2026-04-03, version 8.1.2* I was originally told to download your app to easily manage my account/policy and make me monthly premium payments. To my surprise, my login doesn’t even work through the app, I can only use the webpage via browser. At this point, the app is rendered completely useless if I can’t even log into my amount. I’ve called in twice for assistance to try to figure out why I cannot log in through the app to no avail, with the only recommendation being uninstalling and reinstalling the app which changed nothing. ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-02-07, version 8.0.9* App shows nothing but account balances. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easy to Navigate *2025-11-20, version 8.0.8* Very good app ### 5/5 — Useful app to view retirement accounts *2023-04-14* Helpful and easy to use. ### 5/5 — Great company *2023-01-26, version 7.0* Great company, occasional hiccups ### 5/5 — Much improved!! *2021-03-03, version 6.2.0* Thanks for updating the app. Works great! Looks good too! ### 5/5 — Wow - THANK YOU! *2020-01-10, version 6.0.0* Really like the latest app design. It’s much easier for me to find my retirement details. Thanks and keep it up! ### 5/5 — Nice modern update *2019-12-31* The new interface is a major upgrade from previous versions. All of the information I look for is quickly accessible. The calculator is a quick way to see how I could potentially hit my savings goal and the Plan Snapshot gives me an interactive way to view details related to my statement activities **Developer response:** Hi ohanacrew67, thanks for the review. We have worked diligently to upgrade the app experience and added a few new features. We wanted to provide a quick way for you to see how small changes in your investment profile could make impacts on your future. Please keep an eye out for updates in the near future, and we greatly appreciate your continued feedback. ### 5/5 — Cool new facelift from JBG *2019-12-22, version 6.0.0* Very clean looking app. Love the Touch ID. Hoping to see more new cool features added to this app. Love the plan snapshot in version 6.0. This allows me you view my gains/losses in that period. ### 5/5 — Nice Modern Update *2018-12-15* This is a big improvement from the previous version. Really like the FutureFit results. Glad to see Touch / Face ID and multi factor added - much needed security features. Hoping this is a sign of bigger and better things to come - how about adding ability to modify FutureFit and account profile? Great step forward! ### 5/5 — Great App. Clean and Easy to use. *2013-11-01, version 3.0* Great to see my employer plan on my iPad. A clean design that is not overly complex. The summary view is well done. I can view my employer plan and all my financial accounts in one place. Nice videos ### 5/5 — It works *2012-02-17, version 1.0.0* A must have --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
