Can’t change location

After being locked out for half an hour trying to reset my password and following the guidelines which it wouldn’t identify as correct despite having them in the password; it now shows my store option as being in Texas while I’m in another state and the nearest
Exchange over 100mi despite having bases all around me.

Thank you for your feedback. The Army & Air Force Exchange Service locations that offer online ordering with in-store pickup appear in the store locator. If yours isn't listed, you can still shop the app and have your order shipped to your address.

Almost Perfect

This app has been really helpful compared to using the website. Great for checking prices, shopping online, and tracking orders. The only drawback is the military uniform builder is still just a link to an external browser. I think it would be a massive improvement to be able to natively build and order uniforms all in one place.

Thank you for the 4 star rating and great feedback. It is great to hear the app is making it easier to check prices, shop online, and track your orders. We hear you on the military uniform builder — handing off to an external browser is not the seamless experience we want either. Our team is currently reviewing how the app handles the uniform builder, and your suggestion for a native build-and-order experience has been shared with them for future enhancements. If you have additional ideas you would like us to consider, email MyExchangeApp@aafes.com. Thank you for being a valued member of the Exchange.

App could use some work

The app overall isn’t bad. However, the app does need some work to update with modern features.

If possible, please address the below recommendations.
- Add the ability to checkout with Apple Pay in the app instead of just manually by credit or debit card
- Per an in-store associate the inventory online/in-app never matches what the store has for stock. The associate said they had no way of fixing it, and was just a mismatch online/in-app vs in store
- Add an option on the search results page would be great to filter by store availability
- Add the ability for in-store purchases to link either to the app or your account so that it is easier to do a return or keep track of purchase history without a physical receipt
- Add dark mode support to the app

Why no link to pay from Apple Wallet?

I have a 20.00 Mikstar gift card in Apple wallet, but there is no link in checkout to use it for an online purchase!

Review

Love that they created an app. So convenient, user friendly, excellent customer service and course the top tier competitive prices AND no tax? I'm sold. Thank you Exchange!

Error 404 address not found

App won’t let me input my billing information for my card since it believes my address does not exist

Problems with login (Resolved—thank you!)

You can’t paste or use a password manager. If you leave the app to get your password, it clears the fields. For reals, not allowing pasting a password is about the most ridiculous thing and encourages password reuse/weak password. Gave up on trying to get in.

Note: Developer responded that they are working on the issues—appreciated. Will try again when updated!

Very nice app!! Fixed! - Cant copy password

Edit 2: updated to 5 stars. I’m am thoroughly impressed with the unprecedented response from the MyExchange app team. They read my review, acknowledged the issue, and fixed the problem in a short period of time. This is so promising that the app will stay up to date. Why don’t more companies do this?

Original:

For some reason I cannot paste in my super long password. Hopefully this is an oversight and not a policy because it encourages short and weak passwords.

Edit: Updated after developer response. Very encouraging that feedback is being taken seriously, can’t ask for more than that.

Mr Patrick

What I want is to be able to select text so I can cut and paste. Do that please. Because your prices are consistently higher than the civilian market(presumably you are aware of this and do it intentionally), I always feel forced to do price match. That’s harder when you can’t cut and paste. Also- have a policy that once anyone does price match, YOUR price drops. Otherwise you’re just making us waste our time.

You’re not a charity OR a business. Your job is to provide a service, the game playing you all do for MWR is exhausting. Have low prices and more people will use the site because of the taxes. Oye.

I love it personally

I was stoked to find out we have an app! A little dated but simplicity is great in my opinion. Lots of stuff to buy, never had a problem yet!

Can’t paste credentials

Yet another review of about not being able to paste credentials from a password manager. If users can’t login, the app is unusable.

Where is my local store

I can’t find my location. I live in Virginia Beach and can’t find any stores in the area

Apple keychain doesn’t work

Please have your developers fix the login screen to properly accept apple keychain and allow pasting.

“For your safety” emails

I just placed my first order with the AAFES app. It went smoothly except for one annoying issue. I kept getting told that “for my safety” i need to enter a code sent to my email. This was not a one time thing either it was numerous times. Hence the 4 star rating. I understand all the verification at the beginning when verifying me as a veteran but the other stuff was irritating. Beyond that, the app is very smooth.

App won’t accept credentials

Please review whatever changes were recently made, because the app won’t accept login credentials.

Poor programming

This app NEEDS to allow paste into login AND auto filling by my password app. Both FAILED miserably when I tried to login. Five times I am not able unless I MANUALLY enter info.
Please fix this ASAP.

Good App, Paste not Allowed

The app works well and makes online shopping easy. One issue I see, though, is with sign in. Paste isn’t allowed. Security conscious people use long complicated passwords that are impossible to memorize and are unique to only a single app/sign in. This app does not allow my password manager to enter the password nor does it allow the pasting of a copied password. That’s ok as long as the password is remembered but on occasions when it is not, logging in at a remote location is virtually impossible.
EDIT: After looking at other’s reviews I see that the password issue has been reported many times and has not been resolved. This is a significant issue that essentially causes the app to be non-functional if you are in a location where you don’t have a second device or a printer available. Are there actually plans to fix this?

Unfinished

The log in screen is non functional. I can neither log in using the iOS nor copy my password into the log in screen. Furthermore, if I switch apps to read my password over the field is wiped.

App

The first page of the App is great, same as the online sign page. Once you want to review the items it is not good. A lot of the page is wasted space, with a minimal area to actually view the items. Walmart and Amazon are two examples that do it better; even Lowe’s. Also, why did you get rid of the deal of the day? The reason I signed in frequently.
