### 4/5 — Thanks

*2026-08-07, version 2026.04.02*

Love this bank

### 4/5 — Bill pay

*2026-05-26, version 2026.01*

The worse system to use @ safe since its inception, we get checks sent back half the time we use it, useless because it takes so much time to put it in the system. The idiocy of it all, is that they know it, I call and the reps say it's a bad system.... this is over many years now, I'm a member since 84.

### 2/5 — To slow crashes

*2026-02-21, version 2025.10.1.2*

The app is much slower than other banks and man the credit card 3rd party is annoying. It’s so slow to open, it crashes repeatedly. If you want to try to use your reward point you better set aside half your day to get to the 3rd party website.  You would think a bank would have a state. Of the art website as your handling peoples money

*2025-06-30, version 2025.2.2.3*

Convenient and easy to access and use.

### 4/5 — Would be great but

*2024-03-19, version 2023.10.02*

The transaction timing is horrible it seems to delay the amount of payments given out to the vendors or what have you call them. And it just seems that you may a little extra charges even though the clerks over the phone claim you don’t. It’s very frustrating when it seems you have an amount of money that you don’t have and it’s very frustrating when you are trying hard to accumulate money for a time. You all would be better if you could work on that as well as the fees being explained better by the app. Thank you

### 1/5 — $10 fee every transaction?????

*2025-04-10, version 2025.2.2.3*

Shame that I chose to bank with you guys because of best rate but then charge $10 fee for every payment??????

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-02-20, version 2024.10.1.10*

App barely works and won’t let me in my account at all.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2024-11-17, version 2024.4.0.10*

This app is convenient but barely works

### 1/5 — SAFE

*2024-10-15, version 2024.4.0.10*

App doesn’t open. Needs serious updates. Won’t load info.

### 1/5 — My account

*2022-12-28, version 2022.9.1.11*

I haven’t been able to access my account in weeks

### 1/5 — Loss of simplicity

*2022-09-15, version 2021.11.0.36*

Why can’t it just show my account like it used to. Now when I click on my CC it loads a webpage. Not needed

### 1/5 — It’s a thumbs down for me

*2021-01-16, version 6.5.5.33*

“Updated” version is trash. You literally have to be taken to the app & “update” the app each time you need to log into the app. It’s a major inconvenience & extremely aggravating to say that least.

### 1/5 — Sketchy

*2020-09-29, version 6.4.1.31*

Seems sketchy.. didn’t even send me the email to change my password.  Not sure this is legit.

### 1/5 — TOUCH ID IS USELESS!!!

*2020-07-22*

I’ve spent many hours trying to figure out how to enable Touch ID for this app.  There’s an option to turn TouchID on in the app settings, but it doesn’t work.  Instead it refers you to your device settings.  Touch ID can’t be enabled on device settings until it’s turned on in the app.  So...there’s a “Catch 22” situation.  I Googled this, looked at other SAFE sites, etc.  No answer there either.  Why is it so darn difficult to turn Touch ID on for this app???

### 1/5 — Trashy New App

*2020-07-02, version 6.3.1.30*

For all the money this Bank makes and to have this crap App.......... if SAFE Federal has the money to build a new facility at least take care of your customers first and make this simple. I bet all the folks giving 5 stars has to be employees. 🤔

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-08-19, version 2026.04.02*

This SAFE app is so easy to use and I’m able to do most anything I need to right here in  the app! The only thing I wish you could do is deposit bigger checks. But other than that, I’m extremely satisfied with it
