### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2025-01-16, version 3.0.3*

App pretty frustrating for sure. After registering for secure code, every time I opened the app it would tell me my account is locked for security reasons and I had to go through the process to register for secure code again. Deleting and reinstalling the app seems to have resolved so far.

### 2/5 — Upgrade useless

*2021-11-24, version 1.2.1*

Recently the RABO app was updated. Well, now you can only do one transaction at a time. After clicking on the “done” button, you have to wait for the app to close down before you can log in again and do another transaction. A real royal pain.

### 1/5 — iPhone issues

*2021-10-17, version 1.1.5*

Rabobank please fix. We have been waiting now for over a fortnight. Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-10-14, version 1.1.5*

Shows a link to say to go to the website because the app isn’t working due to an iOS update.

Apple provides beta releases of iOS for developers to test their apps. Rabobank needs to use this time to make sure the app works so their customers aren’t locked out.

### 1/5 — Slack

*2021-10-14, version 1.1.5*

IOS 15 is out some now and available for development/testing a lot longer yet incompetent application specialists at Rabo still haven’t been capable of updating their already buggy app. Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Issues on iOS 15

*2021-10-13, version 1.1.5*

As other reviews state, this app currently has issues working on iOS 15 and will redirect you to sign in through online banking which requires the use of the digipass every time. Incredibly inconvenient. This has been going on since the first iOS 15 update came out, so a little over 3 weeks now.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work with iOS 15

*2021-10-06, version 1.1.5*

App doesn’t currently work with iOS 15, hoping the issue will be fixed soon. For now have to use internet banking instead, which is a lot more hassle.

### 2/5 — Nearly there

*2021-04-01, version 1.1.4*

The app is great when it is working. Tho It often randomly deregisters your login and then have heaps of issues getting back in. Would be good to keep it consistent because it has the makings of being an awesome app

### 1/5 — KIWI

*2020-12-08, version 1.1.4*

Very frustrating app. Whenever it’s updated, which is often, app needs to be deleted and reinstalled with use of the digipass which has no light in background and numbers are displayed in similar fashion. There’s no communication from Rabo to advise this, it’s a matter of phoning them and being given this as an option to make it workable again. Very frustrating in this day and age!

### 1/5 — Roger Coe

*2020-12-04, version 1.1.3*

This app is an absolute pain Used to be ok what’s happened?
Sort it please

### 1/5 — Security Error

*2020-11-08*

Security error that says needs a reinstall. Reinstalled and same error. Un-useable.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2020-11-08, version 1.1.2*

This app was okay initially although it had bugs, but that didn’t last long. Now I can’t log in at all. Won’t accept my pin. Just tells me there’s an error. Apps aren’t that hard to make Rabo! Why can’t you get this right? I thought at last I could get away with not having to use that stupid Digipass... But no.

### 1/5 — As bad as their website

*2020-09-27, version 1.1.1*

A lemon

### 1/5 — Can’t log in.

*2020-08-17, version 1.1.1*

Can’t even log into the app because every time I try to log in, I get a pop up that says ‘There seems to be an issue’ after I put in my PIN. 

Often not convenient for me to log into a computer to get into my account. Pointless having an app that I can’t even log into anymore (used to work just fine!).

### 1/5 — Apps broken

*2020-07-27, version 1.1.1*

I can log onto the site just fine but the app won’t login.

### 1/5 — Worst banking app

*2025-11-18, version 3.1.1*

No biometric login like every other banking I and forced to use a less secure pin. But often the pin doesn’t work so have to try again later. But if you enter it too many times it will lock you out and you have to phone them to get it unlocked but they are only open limited hours

### 1/5 — So clunky

*2025-02-24, version 3.0.5*

One of the worst banking apps in the history of mankind. Almost 0 intuitive human centered design, old and clunky. Fantastic savings rates though! %

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with internet banking as expected.

*2024-11-21, version 3.0.2*

I downloaded the app and installed it successfully which enabled access to my accounts though the app. Using internet banking became impossible as the app failed to generate the required secure code. Rabo bank told me I must delete and reinstall the app, after waiting 20 minutes on the phone. Great system guys!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work after setting up secure code on other device

*2024-11-12, version 3.0.2*

Can’t log in at all any more. It also wants me to use my old digipass even though I have registered for secure code and using that on my other device.  Contacted support but had any reply days later

### 1/5 — No biometric security

*2024-09-17*

No way to secure the app by biometrics like other banks, yet they want this to replace the security token. Often the app also doesn’t work and won’t log you in

### 1/5 — Install a back button!

*2022-08-31, version 1.2.4*

This app is very frustrating. You have to close down the app and re-open it to move to another page as there are no back buttons. Surely it is easy to fix this in todays day and age?

### 1/5 — Not fit for purpose

*2022-03-10, version 1.2.3*

I don’t know what you are paying your app developers but it is way too much. IOS15 has been out for months not and you have yet to sort out the issues the app has.  Perhaps you need to check out some of the banking apps of your competition for inspiration - it’s not like you could do any worse.

### 1/5 — Was working but not now

*2022-01-19, version 1.2.2*

I had this app since May 2021 was working perfectly fine until later in the year. I’ve seen others’ review now saying at similar time they weren’t able to log in. My issue is that once login, the page is blank and I cannot do anything. Bit frustrating used to work fine but not now. P.s my phone is updated to the recent iOS 15.1
I contacted and custom services, though they tried but still not working

### 1/5 — Terrible Banking App

*2021-12-09, version 1.2.2*

Despite many iOS updates, this  Rabobank app fails to function for basic actions ie money transfers, it just freeze’s. The  app’s menu is hopeless and not fit for purpose.

### 1/5 — What is going on?

*2021-10-19, version 1.1.5*

This app has been down for over 4 weeks… I’ve been super patient waiting for you guys to fix it but this is a bit beyond a joke now. Come on.

*2026-04-19, version 3.1.4*

Great app, easy to navigate and do transactions

### 5/5 — Landscape Mode

*2025-05-23, version 3.0.8*

The app is great on iPhone. It would be helpful to have landscape mode on the iPad.

### 5/5 — Finally!!

*2019-08-11, version 1.0.4*

Finally an app for this bank giving us easy access to our account.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2019-07-29, version 1.0.3*

This is the most important App on my phone. Made life soo easy!

### 4/5 — It works

*2025-03-30, version 3.0.6*

No issues so far

### 4/5 — New update worked fine

*2025-02-22, version 3.0.5*

New update installed and worked fine from start.

### 4/5 — Will not connect/uninstalled/re-install - FIXED :-)

*2020-05-29, version 1.1.0*

Loved this app but see an app update three days ago (? In relation to iOS update) and now doesn’t connect. Says no connection available...I am at home on wifi and data...nothing has changed in the connection yet simply will not work. Had to uninstall then re-install and complete set up again. Bit of a bum but it happens. Now working perfectly as previously. Love this app...so much more ‘user friendly’ than site. Just need fingerprint login ability :-)

### 4/5 — Improved

*2019-11-14, version 1.0.7*

The glitches have been fixed and the app works great, much more streamlined than the desktop version, very convenient

### 4/5 — A great start!

*2019-04-27, version 1.0*

So happy there is finally an app! Has taken so long. I like the layout, looks good and is easy to use. Just need a function to be able to open and reinvest term deposits through the app!!!

### 3/5 — Need to be able to edit term deposit reinvestment options when they come to the end of their term

*2026-03-16, version 3.1.2*

Please add the ability to update term deposits nearing the end of the term. There is no ability to change auto reinvest option or alter the terms when the term deposits come due.
