Multi factor falure

Used to get in fine until update that forces multi-factor auth. Now can not get in at all. Text message never occurs and call back fails (no texts or calls never happen). No option for email verification. Stuck and can not get in.

Clunky, cumbersome and not user friendly

It’s extremely concerning that there was an update on this app 5 days ago and no one has been able to login, yet EMPOWER hasn’t felt the need to fix this. They also don’t allow you to login via their website so I am completely logged out of my account right now.

Aside from the current (and completely baffling)issues.This app is too clunky and difficult to navigate. I’ve been using Fidelity from my previous employers for the last 15+ years and their app blows this one out of the water. So much more user friendly and intuitive. This app makes it way too hard to look at the simplest, yet necessary, info. You can’t easily see how much you’ve invested per year or pay check, growth per year, company contribution or really anything you want to see in one screen or dashboard. You can’t even go back to the previous screen or menu easily. This is by far the worst financial app I’ve ever used. Truly terrible design and functionality. Why anyone would CHOOSE to use this company to manage their money blows my mind. I will begin lobbying my company to move out retirement plans to a more competent and capable company. What a joke.

The worst banking institution!

My goodness Empower is by far the worst banking institution that I’m enrolled in! Every other day I experience some technical problems with accessing my account. Whether it’s from mobile app or online using a browser. So bad! Stay away from them!

Can’t Login via Website or App

Can’t Login via Website or App for over 48 hours. And I’m not waiting on hold for over 3 hours trying to get through to customer service who’s says they don’t know what’s going on. Check the down detector website!!!

Won’t open

App won’t open

Good company, bad app

The app messes up a lot

This thing alone

Does not work, app or site

It is always wrong

Why would I trust a company when the app is always wrong? Wrong account balances, wrong savings amount, wrong transactions. Apparently, wrong company to do business with.

User authentication error all of a sudden.

Pretty bad experience.

App freezes

The app doesn’t work and always freezes as soon as I open it

App doesn’t even work

Load my account it shows balance only then sits and loads until the app shuts itself off. Trash app from a trash company.

Fix log in

They broke their app and the update notes are silent to this known issue

Good App’

You guys run a good app’. Good business. Thanks!

Review

App always closes

Not user friendly

I just downloaded for my new employer it is extremely hard to figure anything out to they point im considering do i even need a 401k at this point

Font too small

The app might have nice features, but the font is too small to read on my iPhone. Support confirms you can’t make it bigger. If you’re trying to cater to senior citizens on how to manage their retirement, don’t you think you should make the font big enough to be readable?

So informative!

Was so helpful with different things that I was not aware of. Kind and patient.

Update info

Imposible ti update info and make changes in the fly, loads slow

Terrible company

They charge $150 fee for each request.

It is always wrong

Why would intrust a company when the app is always wrong? Wrong account balances, wrong dpsavings amount, wrong transactions. Apparently, wrong company to do business with.
