Crashes upon opening

Launching an older version (installed prior to Oct. 8, 2026) of the Fidelity Charitable app, I received a prompt to update the app to the version in App Store as of Oct. 8, 2026. After doing so launching the Fidelity Charitable app immediately crashes the app. Wish I could roll-back the update.

Main Page Button Improvement

Update the green “Contribute” button to match the main Fidelity app style and rename it “Transact.” Tapping it should open a simple menu that lets users contribute or donate from any page—no need to return home or navigate elsewhere. This streamlines access and makes transactions more intuitive.

Fidelity steals your money with fees

Your money doesn’t go to charity. Fidelity steals it in fees. They should be ashamed. Unethical AF!

Also the app has a terrible customer UI/UX.

Good, but lost function

The app is great to make a donation, but it used to allow editing scheduled/recurring donations. A while back, that seems to have gone away. Now, when I attend a fundraiser and decide to increase my donations, I have to remember to log in at home from a computer to modify recurring donation amounts. I used to use the app to update the amount while at the events.

FAQ
