Updated and completely broken

Since updating the app crashes shortly after launch. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still broken. I now have no visibility on my pension.

Always a problem

App never lets you update details or check your forecast for the future and say problems try again after which you can not get back to the app without out closing completely go back to the old version it was better

Response from developer

We hope this issue has resolved by now. If not, could you please try completely uninstalling the app and installing the latest version? If the issue persists, feel free to reach out to us directly via our support form: https://www.smartpension.co.uk/contact-forms/member

Great way to control your pension

I was tired of just receiving one letter every year about my pension with my previous provider. Now, with this app I’m in control of my investment 24/7 and if markets go up and down I can take the right decision where to invest my pension 😎

Response from developer

Thanks for your positive feedback, it's great to hear!

Log in stopped working

App is okay. Quite basic and likely using app wrappers around web pages (constantly asking for cookie acceptance). Lots of potential for it to be way better.

Since recent update, I can’t log into the app. Still works on browser. Sort please.

Hi bencurzon, thanks for your feedback. We're always improving our app but you're right, not all of our pages are native yet - we're working on it. With regard to the problem logging in, please try deleting the app and re-downloading it. If the issue persists, feel free to reach out to us directly via our support form: https://www.smartpension.co.uk/contact-forms/member.

App or website will not load

I cannot access anything! Stuck on loading

Lack of detail

Very poor appt, not showing any other details like transactions or growth

Uninstalled after a few minutes of usage

Installed it for the very first time ever but some of the basic functionalities didn’t even work so I’ll just stick to the website instead. When you click on the line chart showing your pension growth you get redirected to the transaction tab but it stays stuck on the loading wheel. Tried to edit beneficiaries but couldn’t even update a name nor select a title. So just gave up.

Hi Sparmaham, sorry to hear that the app isn't working as expected. The quickest way to fix this is to delete and re-download the app. If the issue persists, feel free to reach out to us directly via our support form: https://www.smartpension.co.uk/contact-forms/member.

Not an app, only a link to their website

The app just opens their website via a browser embed, offering no discernable additional benefits compared with opening in the browser. In fact its more glitchy, with issues such as not being able to even type into some of the required fields.

App not working

For some reason I am unable to access the App. There is only the Smart logo showing on the screen with no way of searching for assistance.

Can never sign in

Takes forever to log in and stuck on login screen

Stopped working

The app hasn’t been able to pass the 1st screen for a long time. Have you abandoned it?

Easy to use

Easy to use app with up to date values, including negative and positive performance which is helpful.

Love the pension calculator

The best app I’ve used for understanding my pension, and I’ve used a few. Intuitive, can see my balance easily and updated every day. It’s a proper app and not a link to a webpage like some of the others I’ve used. Playing with the pension calculator makes understanding what my life might look like when I finish work, really come to life. Solid app and of course, accessing on your phone rather than a desktop is convenient.

Easy to use

Easy to use App, viewing my pension is like viewing my online banking. Helpful tools to help planning.

Great app

I’ve recently downloaded the app to view my pension balance. Ease to use and find my way around it. I was drawn to the calculator, very helpful although I can’t afford to increase my contributions.

Not working

Worked OK for a few months, now won’t open

Great app

I can do all the same things here as I can do on a computer - love it!

Great app

Easy to navigate and transferring in other pensions was easy.

Not working

I’ve not been able to access my account through the app for the last 10 days. Are you bankrupt?

No longer works

Doesn’t function any longer and it was just an app portal for website anyway.
