Have zero to no issues with this app.
Maintenance you are alerted via text well in advance.
Cannot say enough good things about the app or Lakeside Bank. Switched 10 years ago with good reason! Never looked back. Staff is kind and overly accommodating - they actually take the time to get to know you. You’ll never find this these days! ❤️

### 2/5 — Need to get Zelle working

*2025-09-12*

I love everything about this bank branch and people, but the app needs an overhaul.  I am tired of seeing fraud alert messages and wish I could delete them once and for all.  My app crashes once in a while after I use Zelle.

### 2/5 — Not great

*2025-07-06, version 11.0.51001*

It crashes a lot and the UI/UX isn’t great. I find it hard to locate things and organized in not a user friendly way. Going from the Chase app to this was rough
