### 1/5 — Complete waste

*2023-02-09*

Not only can I never login to the app with Face ID or password, but then it locks me out of my web account as well and I need to reset my password. Clearly the app does not work at all so why pretend to have one?

### 1/5 — Can’t even login

*2023-01-30*

When prompted for Face ID I present my face and then receive an error message “session has expired” and it does not login. Then I put in my email and password. Again, I receive an error message “session expired” and I do not log in. Why even develop and publish the app if your users can’t even login? You make it extremely painful just to pay a bill, as if giving you thousands of dollars a year wasn’t painful enough. Better yet, if you can’t pay your bill, your coverage simply expires. Frustration is built in, while you give money to a company that provides a terrible user experience. Ah the joy of health insurance.

### 1/5 — So Bad You’ll Need A Doctor … But You Won’t Find One Here

*2023-01-13*

Using this app is like hitting yourself over your own head with a hammer repeatedly: it feels so good when you stop. The lists of qualified healthcare providers are outdated, so attempting might still connect to a doctor who might still be in practice… or not. Might be a paint store. The cost-calculator is completely broken and just spins fecklessly, leaving you wondering if the cost of a visit is just too high for modern computing power to even calculate. There is no method of scheduling an appointment via the app, implying that, a mere 23 years into it, BCBS has not yet taken the leap into the 21st century. Some of the buttons say things like “find a doctor,” and “find a cost,” but don’t actually do anything. So, they’re not so much links as non-sequitur suggestions. If health insurers are looking to improve their dismal reputation by streamlining and facilitating the process of navigating the administrative burdens of the healthcare system, they should hire an app developer and not an oral surgeon because trying to do anything on this app is like pulling teeth.

### 1/5 — What the!!!

*2023-01-11*

Just installed the app. Trying to sign in but keep getting the session timed out. How many milliseconds do they give us to log in?

### 1/5 — I’m useable

*2023-01-07*

App “times out” and asks you to try again later. I’ve reloaded the app, turned my phone off and on, waited a few days. I’ve done this at least twice. Totally useless app in its present state

### 1/5 — App times out within seconds

*2022-11-01*

I haven’t been able to log in to the all because it times out almost immediately no matter how many times I try to sign in. At first I thought it was a one day glitch but after waiting a few days and trying again it’s still giving me the same problem. Currently unusable in its condition.

### 1/5 — Could be better

*2022-05-19*

Frustrating a health app won’t allow you to add your medical insurance card to apple wallet or any info to the apple health app.

### 1/5 — Good, not great

*2022-02-19*

Need to work on support for Face ID since it’s glitchy. Also no support is available for adding the medical card to apple wallet or information to the apple health app.

### 1/5 — Can’t even login

*2026-06-22*

Trash app and possibly a scam just to get your login info

### 1/5 — Does Not Work

*2026-02-17*

At log in it keeps spinning spinning and spinning after inputting my name and password. I can literally hear the elevator music.

### 1/5 — APP IS A SCAM DONT DOWNLOAD IT!

*2025-10-30*

Takes your information then brings you to blank account activation page. God knows who has my personal information now. Tried to find a report button but there doesn’t seem to be one. I recommend Apple take this app down asap! I found out the app was fake by calling blue cross blue shield and them directing me to the correct app.

### 1/5 — Why Can’t you fix it?

*2024-11-25*

App keeps closing down, glitchy

### 1/5 — Missing useful functionality

*2024-07-16*

Nice concept but wish it worked. Tried to access my Flex card benefit by scanning a UPC code at CVS to see if a product was eligible, and the app doesn’t seem to work.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2024-03-18*

I can’t even get it to download. Been circling for an hour. Great job.

### 1/5 — Wish zero stars was an option

*2024-02-09*

App is completely useless, wasted my time trying to login again and again. I just updated my credentials and know it is correct. Uninstalling. Hopefully BCBS will hire an actual developer one day, instead of the joke who “made” this app.

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2023-04-23*

Can’t log in. Allows me to reset my password and then says my details should be the same as the website and won’t open. Can’t set up Face ID because it won’t scroll down to the check box and continue button. Now I’m locked out of the website as well. 

Why advertise an app that doesn’t work? We pay you thousands of dollars a year for overpriced healthcare, the least you could do is give us the illusion that the system is working for us with a functioning app. 

Pathetic!

### 1/5 — Looks good, but doesn't work

*2023-04-21*

Was able to access it, and the layout looks good, but there's nothing in any of the drop downs. So it's basically a structure with nothing inside.

### 1/5 — Typically Rhode Island.

*2023-04-07*

App is crap. Website is crap. The person I was messaging is awesome though. Still can’t get the information I need. Typically Rhode Island.

### 5/5 — MyBCBSRI app

*2021-10-25, version 1.3*

Easy access to claim status,benefits and accumulator information, case creation, ID card, and even manage HSA account.

### 5/5 — App is Very good

*2021-10-25, version 1.3*

App is very user friendly and very easy to use

### 5/5 — Very good App

*2021-10-25*

App is really good and user friendly

### 3/5 — Face ID not working

*2026-04-20*

It’s just a so-so app. Has basic info, doesn’t do anything fancy. I just use it to track my claims. But yeah, Face ID doesn’t work.
