### 3/5 — Hitting Submit Multiple Times

*2026-09-01, version 1.4.397434*

I do not understand why I have to tap submit a payment twice. You should give me a message, “Are you sure you won’t  submit $$$’s?” Then I could reply yes. My concern is, submitting a payment twice. Not a good payment processing  situation..

### 4/5 — Only one complaint

*2026-09-01, version 1.4.397434*

The absolute only thing I dislike about this app is that I have to sign in every single time. Other than that it’s amazing

### 2/5 — General comments on app

*2026-08-31, version 1.4.397434*

Would be nice to have a more intuitive experience navigating between my two loans. Would like to have a version of the app that is better suited to a tablet. I prefer to use my iPad to view loan details and make payments but find the interface lacking. On a positive note I find it easy to find information I’m looking for.  With a few user experience updates I would give it 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Easy to manage payments

*2026-08-31, version 1.4.397434*

It’s easy to manage payments and they even have a section for paying down principal. Really makes the process better being able to have full control. Login process is a little tedious though. Could be simplified.

### 2/5 — Face ID doesn’t work

*2026-08-27, version 1.4.397434*

For well over a year the FaceID feature of this app has failed to work. This has been across multiple iPhones (14 Pro Max and now 17 Pro), multiple updates, and uninstalling/reinstalling the app. 

You need to either get this fixed or quit advertising the feature.

### 2/5 — App

*2026-08-26, version 1.4.397434*

App doesn’t always load

### 3/5 — Stop making minor updates mandatory

*2026-08-24, version 1.4.397434*

Had a few weeks of optional updates that haven’t forced me to download a new version just to check my balance; that’s an improvement and I appreciate it. 

Another day, another forced update for “design…”  

My response: developer’s response fails to explain any value the user gets from an enforced download of this app multiple times each week.  A far more professional approach would be to segment updates into major and minor releases, with only major releases breaking functionality for existing users. But the developer’s response clearly indicates a belief that only the developer gets to define what good “performance” is. 

Developer response: “the updates are important to enhance the app's performance.”

Update your app three times a week?  Fine. But stop forcing me to download each and every version. Minor releases should not be mandatory downloads.

### 2/5 — Notifications switch is just for show

*2026-08-19, version 1.4.395149*

I get spammed quite a few times throughout the month not just with emails from PennyMac but now through their app. They want you to refi and they will send you those notifications even though your notifications are off

### 3/5 — Reseña

*2026-08-16, version 1.4.395149*

Tienen que enviarte un código para confirmar todo el tiempo eso quita mucho tiempo

### 5/5 — Great Service

*2026-08-14, version 1.4.395149*

Great Service and helpful May Our Almighty God Bless You 
In Jesus Name Amen !

### 5/5 — Outstanding mortgage lending

*2026-08-14, version 1.4.395149*

This company has been wonderful to work with as first time home buyers. We ran into several obstacles but Pennymac has been amazing to work with they have helped guide us the entire way. I would recommend them to everyone!

### 5/5 — Payment

*2026-08-13, version 1.4.395149*

Very easy to do now VERY HAPPY

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Partial payments

*2026-09-02, version 1.4.397434*

Terrible not user friendly 
Can’t split or make specific payments. Just as bad as calling them.

### 1/5 — Difficult

*2026-08-31, version 1.4.397434*

It is too hard to switch from my first mortgage information to my second mortgage information in this app. There needs to be an easier way

### 1/5 — Worst app I’ve ever used

*2026-08-30, version 1.4.397434*

Wow, this has to be the worst experience I’ve ever had with a company and an app in my life. They charged me 3 payments, then took them all back. (Not the first time they have done this) I’ve spent hours on the phone with them, zero help. I just want to pay my mortgage and they are LITERALLY making it impossible. If I could have given zero stars I would have….

### 1/5 — Wack

*2026-08-27, version 1.4.397434*

No way to split mortgage payments so now I have to manually pay bimonthly because my partner and I don’t share bank accounts.

### 1/5 — Log in

*2026-08-27, version 1.4.397434*

It offers Face ID, but it never allows me to login with my face? Is this an update that needs to happen through my app or is it not available?

### 1/5 — Buggy. No real help.

*2026-08-24, version 1.4.397434*

The app is barely navigable & has a bunch of bugs. Getting ahold of your actual point of contact? IMPOSSIBLE. 5 months of trying & nothing.

### 1/5 — Horrible user experience

*2026-08-21, version 1.4.396952*

Change password. Then asks you to register again, then says you can’t register again because you already used a previous username and password and need to just use the original. Absolute clown show.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-08-14, version 1.4.395149*

They increase your price every year

### 1/5 — No landscape mode

*2026-08-11, version 1.4.395149*

I use an iPad in landscape. I’m bedridden. This has no landscape movement mode - portrait only, for iPhones. Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Fix Face ID

*2026-08-10, version 1.4.395149*

You have the ability for Face ID but it never works. It always fails even thought I get the green checkmark.
