### 2/5 — Awful and Slow

*2026-07-28, version 26.1.2*

This app is one of the worst.  It’s sooo slow.  And it’s hard to logout.   Just a poor design

### 2/5 — Minimal functionality

*2026-04-24, version 26.1.1*

Cant do half the things we can online, description says we can do ACH transfers but that is a lie

### 2/5 — Can't log in anymore

*2026-02-22, version 26.1.1*

App says "Network Error"

### 3/5 — Need improvement

*2025-12-07*

Since last update, when logging off, FaceID will immediately be active and log me on again. I have to purposely turn my screen away from myself to complete process. Never did this before. 

Network Error, when logging in, way too often. Normally during weekends.

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your feedback and letting us know about this. We would love the opportunity to learn more and try to help resolve the issue - will you please reach out to our Online/Mobile Banking Team at eglinfcu.org/contact? Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you!

### 2/5 — Oh god

*2025-09-29, version 24.1.0*

Works fine most of the time, but it has the habit of suddenly logging you out and leaving you with a ‘Network Error’ message when you try to log back in at the most INOPPORTUNE times. Absolutely impossible for urgent transfers.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-08-19, version 24.1.0*

This app will work with my IP.  Not using a VPN or anything.  No other apps have issues.  I can log on from 5G , not WiFi.

### 1/5 — Something happened

*2025-08-12, version 24.1.0*

The app constantly kicks me out and forces me to log in only to claim that my password or pin are wrong and then I have reset my password and fight with the system all over again. It didn’t use to do this. It’s so frustrating!

### 1/5 — Frustrating beyond measure

*2025-08-05, version 24.1.0*

This is the worst app I have ever dealt with. Always fails when needed most. Cant login, access error, network issue, can’t transfer money, you name it it’s happened

### 1/5 — Access Denied

*2025-08-05, version 24.1.0*

The new app is appalling.   It does not allow me to sign into my account via pin or faceid.   All it states is Access Denied as soon as the application opens.   I have even deleted the app and reinstalled ( I work in IT 😉), and still receive the same error banner.    I’m over it!😡

### 1/5 — Never works

*2025-06-30, version 24.1.0*

Can not sign in or if you do it will sign you out in middle of banking.    Terrible

### 1/5 — Trash app

*2025-06-26, version 24.1.0*

The app devs are terrible. Locked out of my account after an update and i cant get an email to refresh my password. Face recognition somehow broken. Get new devs for this trash app you cheapskates

### 3/5 — App will not open.

*2025-06-12*

There have been more times this app will not open when I use my debit card and need to verify my settings.  It is very frustrating.

**Developer response:** That does sound frustrating and we're so sorry about that! Will you please reach out to our Online/Mobile Banking Team at eglinfcu.org/contact, so we can learn more and try to help resolve the issue? Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-05-14, version 24.1.0*

App is not working. It keeps saying access denied while the webpage is working fine.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2024-12-30, version 24.1.0*

Every icon I tap I get an error notice.

### 1/5 — ACCESS DENIED

*2024-09-02, version 24.1.0*

App was working fine for months…now I get “ACCESS DENIED”   Cancelled app and reloaded…NADA.

### 1/5 — Access Denied Error

*2024-06-13*

Was using the app just fine for quite awhile. Then one day unable to log in due to an access denied error. I’m using my proper credentials. Thankfully the CardControls app still works for me. I’m disappointed with the lack of quality in service here. I should not be having problems accessing the main app as a member.

**Developer response:** Oh no! Will you please contact us by going to eglinfcu.org/contact and selecting the “Online/Mobile Banking” option? We'd love to investigate further and help you regain access to the app. Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you soon!

### 2/5 — App needs an overhaul

*2024-05-13*

I like the bank, however; their app needs a serious overhaul. The credit check part I do like, but the rest of it is non-intuitive and lacks ease of use and flow. I’d recommend they re-develop the app and take a look at the online banking that companies like Wells Fargo have with their streamlined nature of the app.

**Developer response:** We're so sorry you aren't enjoying the app. We appreciate and value member feedback, and will be sharing yours with the Development Team. Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any specific questions or suggestions, by contacting us at eglinfcu.org/contact and selecting the “Online/Mobile Banking” option. Thank you!

### 2/5 — Access Denied error

*2024-05-13*

Tried the app this morning at 7:30am May 13, 2024 and facial recognition gives me an Access Denied error now. Removed and reinstalled the app tried logging in without the facial ID with the same Access Denied. Went to the website and logged in just fine. This app is suppose to make life easier not more complicated. Please post on EFCU’s website if the App is down or if there are network issues for the App. If the App is not broke, stop fixing it! It was working just fine. Bugs, security concerns then fix it. This app stops working at the worst times!

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're so sorry about this and apologize for the inconvenience and frustrating experience. If you're still having this issue, will you please reach out to our Online/Mobile Banking Team, at eglinfcu.org/contact, so we can learn more and help resolve the issue?

### 1/5 — Mobile app has gotten awful!

*2024-05-13, version 24.1.0*

Constantly getting Access Denied when trying to log into mobile app. 
EFCU, get this fixed ASAP!!

### 1/5 — Scheduled Payment Issues

*2026-08-03*

This app is very frustrating to use, especially lately. I have been having issues with my scheduled payments not going through. The most recent one, I had three payments scheduled but only one went through, and then two days later a new scheduled payment showed up that’s scheduled for 2027, I have had this issue a few times now and it is extremely frustrating when I believe my payments are good because they’re scheduled for the right amount on the right time and then they don’t go through and now my balance is past due, this has now caused me to pay a late fee because of this negligence. It is beyond frustrating, especially when I message them and get told I need to ensure that I select the correct date. I guess it’s my fault for not taking screenshots of my scheduled payments as proof that I selected the correct year.

**Developer response:** We're very sorry for the disappointing and frustrating experience you're having with scheduled payments. We absolutely value your feedback, appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will be sharing these details with the development team. If there is any other information you want to share or if you're able to provide screenshots of the issue, please contact our Online/Mobile Banking Team at eglinfcu.org/contact. Thank you!

### 1/5 — Does this app EVER work?

*2026-07-16*

This app used to be fine - never great, but could at least access the information I needed. Now I’m lucky if it even pulls up account balances. I don’t know what happened in the last year or so, but it seems like they’ve given up on it. Unfortunately, it’s likely going to push my money to another institution, which is unfortunate as I’ve been a member for quite a while.

**Developer response:** We're so sorry you're having such a disappointing experience with the app and we would love the opportunity to learn more and to try to help resolve the issue. Will you please reach out to our Online/Mobile Banking Team at eglinfcu.org/contact? Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you!

### 1/5 — this app sucks

*2026-07-02, version 26.1.1*

this app buggs out everytime i get on and try to use it

### 1/5 — App is rarely fully functional.

*2026-06-13, version 26.1.1*

This app is honestly terrible, it’s slow, unresponsive, and a lot of the time just flat out doesn’t work, reactivates things without permission. Like this app is complete and utter slop

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2026-05-31, version 26.1.1*

Sometimes it works, then freezes. Now it don’t even open. Zero quality control.

### 1/5 — Terrible app, thinking of switching banks

*2026-04-26*

The app is terrible and has several connection issues where half the time if feels like I can’t even look at my account. I constantly have to uninstall and reinstall and on top of that, trying to connect your Eglin account to almost anything else is always a nightmare and won’t connect.

**Developer response:** We're so sorry for the inconvenience and disappointing experience! Will you please reach out to our Online/Mobile Banking Team at eglinfcu.org/contact, so we can learn more and help you resolve the issue? Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you.

### 1/5 — Application issues

*2026-03-05, version 26.1.1*

Application does not work. Even with autofill, the application denies me access to my account. Couldn’t buy travel tickets because it’s connected to the card controls application.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-02-27, version 26.1.1*

The app is horrendous to navigate other than the main screen. CardControls barely opens up/ works when you make changes to it.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2026-02-23, version 26.1.1*

No wonder it’s so lowly rated. Can’t even log in. Each attempt the app states there is a problem with account validation. And yet, I can log in just fine on a computer. Don’t waste your time with this app. I’d rate zero stars if possible.

### 1/5 — Full of errors

*2026-02-22, version 26.1.1*

The app is constantly being updated which means you won't be able to access it often. Despite numerous updates the app is still not intuitive to use.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-07-14, version 24.1.0*

Love it. It is very handy.

### 5/5 — Works fine

*2023-08-03*

Works fine since I know how to use my phone 5 stars because I love hearing people suffer

**Developer response:** Our team really appreciates you taking the time to share your positive feedback! Thank you for letting us know you're enjoying the updated app and that it's working well! Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

### 5/5 — Melanie Grayson

*2022-02-10, version 3.8*

Such a sweet, informative and very helpful to both my husband and I, in opening our credit union accounts @ Eglin federal credit union in destin Florida and assisting us with getting monies transferred from Ohio to Destin.
We appreciate her thoroughness and professionalism.
Sincerely, 
The Ohio Wilson’s :)

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your wonderful review!! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and we love knowing that Melanie provided awesome service while helping you set up your new accounts and transition from Ohio to Destin. Welcome to the EFCU Family!!! We look forward to serving you again soon, but in the meantime, don't hesitate to call or stop by if you have any questions at all!

### 5/5 — SUPER HELPFUL

*2019-11-23, version 2.8.0 (2)*

I can’t imagine how anyone could not like this app. You never have to go in to the bank again. You can easily transfer or deposit - you can even easily put money in another member’s account.  For everyday banking, this app is fantastic.

### 5/5 — User-friendly!

*2019-01-01, version 2.7.2*

If you have problems with this app, you should just stay away from all technology. This is super user-friendly, and I love that you can transfer between member accounts now, instead of only being able to from the website.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2018-05-11, version 1.1*

Personally I love the app, so much easier to use then the website. Highly recommend downloading!

### 5/5 — If you can’t use this app you’ve got problems!

*2018-03-05, version 1.1*

This app is so user-friendly it’s ridiculous! I have been with egg one for a long time and I hated the app that they had before. It would look at my account every time I used it! But this new app is the bomb. You can reset your password on it and it will give you a temporary password right there. None of this having to have a temporary password email to you and going through all this back-and-forth stuff. This is the best banking app I have ever seen! Two thumbs up Eglin! You got it right this time!

### 4/5 — Not working since update

*2023-08-03*

So since new update , I can no longer login as PIN button on splash screen doesn’t work

Update:  I was able to uninstall and reinstall and have been able to bypass pin with Face ID.  Other than that I have had no issues with app, it’s convenient and fairly easy to use.

**Developer response:** We're so sorry for the inconvenience! Will you please contact our Online/Mobile Banking Team at eglinfcu.org/contact so that we can learn more and help resolve the issue? Thanks!

### 4/5 — Need to combine into one app

*2022-03-27, version 3.9*

U need to incorporate card controls app into the main app what’s the purpose of having two apps if u just gonna get transferred to the original app anyways

### 4/5 — Finally!!!!

*2018-01-01, version 1.0*

It’s about time! The last app worked until the last update. This is such a huge improvement. Simple and easy to use!!! Just make sure your updates don’t break the app!
