### 3/5 — Best bank in Knoxville

*2023-04-28, version 7.29.1.10381*

I have been a Home Federal customer since 1983.  They continue to provide great customer service no matter if I go to the bank in East Knoxville or West Knoxville.  The kind greeting, great customer service and the willing to assist the customers in any way possibly. 
Home Federal could share some that great training with some of our other banks in Knoxville.  
I have accounts at other banks but the customer service does not compare to Home Federal Bank.  
Thank You to all the Staff from Corporate Staff to the Tellers job well done!

### 5/5 — BEST BANK IN EAST TENNESSEE

*2021-12-11, version 7.9.2.4904*

Finding a bank that actually believes in great customer service is almost a thing of the past.  While other banks talk about it, the Seymour branch of Home Federal Bank actually follows through.  Whether you use the drive through service, or you prefer to go inside, you will receive the same friendly service each and every time.  That’s why Home Federal Bank, is my home town bank!

*2021-07-19, version 7.4.1.2808*

Transfer of funds was simple and quick.
Spending budget needs work.
Needs to be more versatile, faster, needs more categories and be able to rename these categories, bills paid, business and other.
Thank you!

### 5/5 — Salazar’s Review of Home Federal Bank of TN

*2021-04-16, version 4.6.5.2368*

I have been with Home Federal Bank for a long time! They have always treated me with respect and have always been very friendly. 
I have banked with other banks in the past, and present, that have just treated me as money. If I did not have a lot...I did not get much attention. What they did not know is that I will put my money with who treats me the best!!

*2020-08-28, version 4.4.13.794*

I have not been using my online banking for awhile but decided to start using it again oh my gosh this app is FANTASTIC !!! I can literally do everything and I mean everything from the palm of my hand and the tip of my finger !! I never thought I’d see the day where you could do banking daily and never even have to leave the your house !! They’re so much more you’ve added to the app and it’s soooo user friendly. I just love it you guys :) A++++++

Sincerely

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2020-06-07, version 4.4.13.794*

Great app - It’s easy to use and helps me keep up with my finances.

### 5/5 — Thank you

I have been a customer for many years and everyone I have dealt with has always treated my husband and I with respect and makes us feel like part of a bigger family THANK YOU and also the mobile app is so easy to use!!!

### 5/5 — Flaws in Mobile deposit

*2019-10-04, version 4.4.13.794*

Mobile deposit needs more work.

### 5/5 — New Website

*2019-09-17, version 4.4.13.794*

The new website does not show the entire picture on one page. Why change an easy to read, working website into a confusing cant find the information website?

### 3/5 — Limitations

*2019-07-29, version 4.4.12.479*

Times out too quickly, can’t shrink or expand when using phone or iPad app, have to keep sliding frame back and forth to conduct business, limited options for categories whereas before there were more, and can’t change the name of half of the categories, ie must use bank category titles.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2021-11-24, version 7.9.2.4904*

This last update broke the app. First after updating several days ago, it kept giving me an error saying it could not log in at this time, please try again later. After a couple of days of this, I deleted the app and re-downloaded it. After launching it, now gives me another error. Loading failed. The operation could not be completed.

### 1/5 — Latest Update is Broken

*2021-06-13, version 7.1.1*

The app worked great, and the they decided to overhaul it. Now it crashes instantly when opening.

### 1/5 — Easy peasy

*2020-04-25, version 4.4.13.794*

Especially now, the remote deposit is great. Thank you for a good app.

### 1/5 — Try to log on and it force closes!

*2020-03-25, version 4.4.13.794*

Fix immediately I have deleted and reinstalled it still force closes on iPhone.

### 1/5 — 1800’s banking

*2019-02-14, version 4.2.31*

I hope they have major plans to come around with the times. The app never will work, always crashes. The website is often a few days behind on items.

### 1/5 — iPhone X

*2019-01-08, version 4.2.31*

I wish the app would be updated, because it crashes on launch on my iPhone X max

### 1/5 — No deposit feature

*2017-08-27, version 4.0.8*

Sadly, HF does not allow mobile check deposits...thus limiting this app's true usefulness. It does what you can already do online. Making a true mobile app requires something beyond what you can do online...and mobile check deposits are required for that.

### 2/5 — Home Town Bank plagued by Small Town Thinking

*2021-07-29, version 7.5.2.3288*

I’ve been a HF customer for years. When all the other banks in town moved online, HF dragged their feet. When they did finally go online, it was like the developers were stuck 10 years behind their counterparts. Take something simple like full-screen, landscape-mode capabilities on the iPad. Nope. Not supported. Or creating your own user ID. Nope, gotta use the one issued by the bank. This bank touts their conservatism as a benefit, but it’s really not when it comes to their online offering. As others have said in other reviews, the app doesn’t bring anything new to the game that you can’t do through your web browser. Unless you have some weird reason to use this app, don’t waste your storage space loading it onto your device.

### 2/5 — Was good but they broke it

*2021-06-11, version 7.1.1*

This app was pretty good, but the new update has broken it and it now crashes on launch with a SSL Certificate error.

### 2/5 — Slow and cumbersome

*2019-09-17, version 4.4.13.794*

Depositing checks is slow and often rejected. Better than driving to the bank, but not an impressive app. Considering how long they took to add his feature you’d think they would have made it easier.
