### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-06-23, version 2.120.16*

Really easy to use

### 1/5 — Can’t even log in

*2026-05-26, version 2.116.0*

Rubbish. Can’t log in even after resetting password

### 1/5 — Never worked once

*2026-04-12, version 2.116.0*

I’ve tried multiple times over a few months and never actually managed to login to this despite resetting password. Rubbish. I’ve never complained about an app before…..

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-04-09*

I thought this would be the app that is compatible with the EQ Shareowneronline website but I guess not. Therefore this app is of no use to me.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and apologies for the disruption caused by this. A recent issue affected login sessions after an update, which led to repeated reinstall prompts for some users. This has now been addressed, but if you’re still seeing problems, please update the app and try again. If needed, contact socialmedia@equiniti.com and we’ll support you directly.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-03-19, version 2.116.0*

Keeps kicking me out of app still not fixed!

### 1/5 — Thrown out the app constantly

*2026-03-14, version 2.116.0*

Keeps kicking me out the app constantly logging me out

### 1/5 — Update fault

*2026-03-13, version 2.116.0*

Poor …. Requires you to reinstall the app time and time again… very poor

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-03-13, version 2.116.0*

Was ok till the recent update now you can’t even log in.

### 1/5 — Not great

*2026-03-13, version 2.115.14*

Won’t work at all after the last update

### 1/5 — Error occurred

*2026-03-13, version 2.115.14*

I have had no issues with this app until today. I’m waiting on shares to drop down, I receive an email telling me I have a document to view. Open the app it forces me to update and now there is an error occurred and won’t log me in!! Great work

### 1/5 — App broken

*2026-03-13, version 2.115.14*

Keeps saying error occurred and won’t log me in ever since I updated the app

### 1/5 — Not much use.

*2026-03-13, version 2.115.14*

App will let you see your holdings but won’t let you send any instructions. App has just updated 13/03/26 and now I can’t log in. Error occurred please try later.
Not of any benefit to having an app that doesn’t offer anything.

### 1/5 — Not useful

*2026-08-21*

As other have said, the app is useless. First question is to select your company but the company that I have shares in is not listed. So I’ve got to use the website, which is not mobile optimized so that’s also useless. I’ll just transfer the shares to a real broker and not this Temu broker.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-07-30*

I have tried logging into this app 8 times and it won’t allow me to get to my profile. I have uninstalled it 3 times, I have put in the right information. When. I made the app I allowed face recognition it’s never done it since I installed it that way. Absolute scam, I will be not using this service again if I’m never going to get access

### 1/5 — Loggin on?

*2026-07-24, version 2.120.16*

Won’t even let me log in! Useless app!

### 1/5 — This is the most frustrating app I have every used

*2026-07-21*

Tried to get in this time but keeps taking me back to the same screen 

Choose how you log in


Asks me to register again and again

This time it probably worked for the longest time 

BUT

And it’s thrown me out again and again and again 



One of the worst apps ever

Throws me out every so often and I have to register again and again and again

Why they cannot fix this problem I do not know

It allows you to get limited information about your account but does not give any vital information about how to withdraw funds or account numbers. Worst of all I have to keep registering as the app throws me out every few months. No not much good

STILL ASKING ME TO REGISTER AGAIN AND AGAIN.

Use it for a few week - register again

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE DEVELOPERS OF THIS APP?????

**Developer response:** We appreciate your review and understand the concerns around the sign-in process. Recent updates have been implemented to streamline access while preserving the robust security measures that protect participant data.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-07-08, version 2.120.16*

Doesn't work, reset password and despite all correct credentials it doesn't log in even after reinstalling app

### 1/5 — Requires improvement

*2026-07-04, version 2.120.16*

Such a bad app, doesn’t remember your credential and you have to log in every single time, using: DOB, NIN, etc.

### 1/5 — Dire

*2026-07-01, version 2.120.16*

A 4 year old to have designed a better app than this. Regularly I have to resign back in, just as regularly the app says we cannot process your request at this time.
Honestly it’s 2026, sort this app out, make it reliable and easy to use because currently it’s not.

### 1/5 — Unable to log in

*2026-06-20, version 2.120.16*

Since the update, it won’t let me log into my account despite my details being correct

### 1/5 — Constantly asking to sign in

*2026-06-03, version 2.116.0*

For years this app has had the same issue. Signs you out, app doesn’t remember any sign in details. You have to sign in, set up pin and enable facial recognition over and over again. Super frustrating
