### 4/5 — Login Error has been fixed

*2025-01-11, version 12.6.1*

I had the same loop error with not being able to access my  account, just emailed support and a “reset” fixed it

### 3/5 — Good

*2024-10-09, version 12.6.1*

Yeah

### 2/5 — Can’t get past the set-up

*2024-10-06, version 12.6.1*

When I was first setting, I had to change my password (I’ve had an account before but was never able to get into it) and the same thing happened this time too, except my password was wrong…so I changed it…and it still said “oops something went wrong”. 

I then created a whole new account with my second email and the same thing happened but except this time it said “oops something went wrong” when I was putting my birth date in the app. 

For some reason it won’t let me past the sign up part where you out in your birth date, I’m 22 years old so there shouldn’t be any issues there at all. 

I don’t understand why anytime I try to use Douugh, it seems to be near impossible to get past the first stage which is literally just signing up…

First my original account never let me log in, so I changed the password and it didn’t help. 
So I created a second account and I wasn’t able to s finish signing up because..well I’m not sure..? 

I’ve never had luck with this app. And I honestly don’t think I’ll be returning to try again.

### 1/5 — Don’t use. Hard to get money out.

*2024-06-18, version 12.6.1*

Clunky app with numerous processes that slow you down from pulling money from the app. Often takes 5 or more days. Don’t use it, plenty of other apps that Are much better!

### 1/5 — Absolute SCAM

*2024-03-16, version 12.5.0*

Be Careful, Douugh is an absolute SCAM!

I had sold some shares and had some money in my wallet. Now they have deactivated my wallet and all the money and remaining shares have disappeared.

Total scam!!

### 1/5 — Terrible Customer Service

*2023-10-24, version 12.2.3*

Paid my Spot out early and due to an unknown ‘bug’ I have not been able to use this in nearly a month. All attempts to resolve the issue has resulted in either being ignored or told that they are working on it.

### 1/5 — Disgraceful

*2023-09-29, version 12.2.2*

I signed up, had issues from the get go so I requested my account be closed. It was and then 3 weeks later they have taken $51 from my bank and I don’t understand why

### 1/5 — Broken

*2023-08-24, version 12.1.1*

Can’t get past the sign up stage. Just hangs after entering all of my personal information. Even force closing the app sends me in ‘sign in’ loop that never actually works. Complete waste of time.

### 1/5 — Seems dodgy

*2023-08-21, version 12.1.0*

Asks for all personal information and identification details, then it says you’re not eligible. They won’t tell you why you’re ineligible and can’t see how they can determine this just by putting in personal details.

Seems like a phishing scam to me, not recommended.

### 1/5 — Wants my bank number

*2023-01-27, version 11.0.10*

Unlike other accounts that give me an account number to send money to from the bank, this one wants my bank account either entered in the app or through Basiq. Because of this i have not and will not use the app until that changes.

### 2/5 — Needs wallet funding via payID

*2023-01-16, version 11.0.9*

I want to start investing but having to link my bank account is a barrier.

### 1/5 — Help desk issues and no transaction history

*2022-12-26, version 11.0.7*

Looks flash, but no one responds to help desk issues 

 Needs options to view transaction history, and to view account details 

Great idea, but needs a lot of work. Still waiting for my funds to be transferred 2 months after selling, with no help from their “support” team.

### 3/5 — International Passport support

*2022-12-21, version 11.0.7*

Could you please provide a timeline for when International Passport as an ID will be supported, or alternative means to provide said ID (including other government issued IDs for those who don’t have an Australian drivers licence or passport). Can’t wait to give Douugh a go though!

### 1/5 — Locked out of my account without reason.

*2022-12-14, version 11.0.6*

I have been unable to log into my account and access my accounts for about a week now. I emailed about it and they responded that my account was locked and asked for all kinds of verification. I asked why my account was locked and provided the verification documents requested. They did not tell me why it was locked and responded with “I don’t know when the account will be unlocked again.” I’m sorry but does that not count as holding my money hostage?! Absolutely unacceptable. I won’t be using Douugh for this reason and many others.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-07-15, version 12.6.1*

Untrustworthy scam app. Takes your details and then nothing happens

### 1/5 — 👎

*2025-06-13, version 12.6.1*

You can’t log in, you can’t reset ya password this app is not good. Don’t bother with it.

### 1/5 — Login error

*2025-03-02, version 12.6.1*

Like others have mentioned, having trouble creating an account -telling me I already have an account. Use same email and reset password and keep getting error message

### 1/5 — Poor execution on a app run company

*2025-02-13, version 12.6.1*

So many errors with this app constantly failing and always having to reset when everything only runs through ur app you would think u would at least try to have it work for everyone

### 1/5 — FREEZES WHEN SUBMITTING IDENTIFICATION

*2024-12-29, version 12.6.1*

CANNOT LOG IN. App completely freezes every time I try to submit all my personal information. I can’t go any further then that.

### 1/5 — NOT taking new subscribers

*2024-12-20, version 12.6.1*

DO NOT DOWNLOAD.  They collect your data and scan your bank statements but do not tell you they are not taking new customers. Apple needs to remove due to misleading conduct and I have advised them of same today.

### 1/5 — Was unable to withdraw funds. Poor Quality app with Poor Customer Service.

*2024-10-07, version 12.6.1*

Was all gravy until I wanted to withdraw my money. 

Persistent bugs in the app meant that I was unable to pull my money out. At best it’s a poorly built app at worst it’s been designed cleverly to hold onto your cash. What’s worse is that the support team are aware of the issue, had no workaround and were very unresponsive. Ended up getting resolved more than three weeks worth of my ongoing persistence and threatening to report the matter to the regulators.

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2024-10-03, version 12.6.1*

DOUUGH is always having technical issues with logging in and money disappearing from your Account, it takes Days even Weeks of communication via email only to try to resolve it. I would not recommend this App at all, go with someone else!!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2024-07-11, version 12.6.1*

Cannot get a spot to work.

### 1/5 — Privacy issues

*2024-06-26, version 12.6.1*

Read the reviews not only here but on trust pilot too, not a legit company, report it. They capture all your data and then ban access

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2024-12-17, version 12.6.1*

Best App

### 5/5 — Great Investment tool

*2024-07-21, version 12.6.1*

This is a great app to help people invest in diversified options.
Easy set up and user friendly...   recommend this to anyone just wanting to start small with minimal outlay

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-08-25, version 12.1.1*

Douugh makes it so easy for me to setup a savings plan by investing in shares and smooth my cash flow with the Spot product. Love it!

### 5/5 — Fantastic Money Management & Education App

*2023-07-28, version 12.0.1*

This is a fantastic app for investing, money management and education! Constantly improving! Go Douugh!

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2023-03-02*

Simple to use. And takes away the hassle of having to think about which stock to invest in, but you can also invest directly with stock if you know what you’re doing. Very impressive. Highly recommend.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your recommendation! We are stoked that our approach is making it easier for you to grow your money. Thank you for sharing.

### 5/5 — Simple, Easy to Use

*2023-02-20, version 11.1.0*

Simple app, easy to use. Will refer to family and friends.

### 5/5 — Impressive App

*2022-12-07, version 11.0.5*

Extremely impressive and perfect for new investors or investors that just want less stress when investing. I’d love to see spending tracking integration with banks so I don’t have to manually track my spending. 

Great start though. Onwards and upwards!

### 5/5 — Amazing idea, more people to invest

*2022-11-25, version 11.0.3*

This is one of those companies like what happened with Amazon, PayPal and internet before, there was 100 of them and only 2-5 survived the market. Hoping it survives as it is nice and easy to use using some great ideas to maximise your portfolio. It will either be here for a long time or die out in the next 5 years

### 5/5 — Great so far

*2022-11-21, version 11.0.2*

Simple interface which makes navigating stocks easy. Solid portfolios. Will only get better as it evolves

### 5/5 — Looks good and is just what I wanted

*2022-11-18, version 11.0.2*

The app looks good, works well and has some helpful advice on it. I can’t wait for more investment options like, Australian shares/ crypto, they should be along soon I’ve been told. It’s a good start and a thumbs up from me👍
