### 3/5 — Mostly okay

*2026-07-07, version 4.41.0*

I like it that I am able to look up Care, but I don’t like that virtual option shows up and I’m not able to dismiss the message. I also don’t like when you search for providers that you can’t view on the map, you only have an option to look at a list and it won’t let you pinch and zoom on the map to view. That’s frustrating.

### 3/5 — Glitches

*2026-06-08, version 4.40.0*

This app is very glitchy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes I can’t even log in. My password is saved but doesn’t work sometimes. FaceID doesn’t work most of the time. I’m constantly having to change my password. Not user friendly.

### 2/5 — Great, when it works

*2026-06-01, version 4.39.0*

This app is great when it works, which is rare. Fix iOS please! I try to log in the just get an infinite progress spinner and it just fails to load anything.

### 2/5 — Dog excrement  performance

*2026-05-25, version 4.39.0*

Buttons don’t work, Face ID doesn’t work, constantly crashes

### 2/5 — Unfortunately annoying

*2026-05-18, version 4.39.0*

Another app that requires complete re-login after updates.  Despite Face ID being enabled, I’m being forced to sign in again, requesting a password reset is abysmally slow (five minutes later and still don’t have the email).  It’s a great idea having this stuff all linked to an app but if the app is subpar what then???

### 3/5 — Typical Crash

*2026-05-16, version 4.38.0*

Very unstable and keeps crashing every time I try to search for a provider. Useless

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2026-04-09, version 4.37.0*

My password is saved to my phone. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. I constantly have to change my password and sometimes I still can’t get in. Annoying and useless.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2026-03-31, version 4.36.0*

Zero stars never works right always not available

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2026-03-31, version 4.36.0*

Sections won’t load or will continuously reload to the point where I spend a lot of time doing simple things. 

I’ve enrolled in paperless notifications, yet keep getting paper mail. I’ve gone over my settings more than once and they are set correctly.

### 1/5 — Worse insurance to have

*2026-03-24, version 4.36.0*

Won’t cover basic generic meds with the best plan they have the co pay is optional u pay the co pay and they send u a bill for more so my coverage is $120 and they pay $26 of visit and I have to pay $330 for medication and they pay zero do not get this insurance if u can avoid it it’s better to have nothing at all.

### 1/5 — Filled with bugs

*2026-03-21, version 4.35.0*

There are so many bugs in this app, it seems like the devs never opened the app once to try using it themselves. Even basic navigation does not work.

### 1/5 — Nightmare to Use

*2026-03-04, version 4.35.0*

The horrid company (united healthcare) that they are aside, this app is terrible. I am the only one on my insurance plan. I have no kids. I am not married. I am a man. Why are all my suggested doctors pediatricians and OBGYN? There’s no way to filter these out.  

For NPs there’s no way to know unless you google the address. Because guess what? most the time they don’t include the practice name. Just an address. So are you going to a pediatric facility? OBGYN? Neurology? That’s the surprise! You don’t know until you search the address.

Oh you’re looking at a medical complex or hospital? Hope you’re not looking for up to date or accurate information either! Some DRs are ER docs, some other specialities. Never know! 

Leave it to an insurance company to not only drain your money, deny your claims and then require you to spend a part time job’s worth of hours just to try and find a PCP. Because it WILL take you hours on end just to find one in this horrible app.

### 1/5 — HealthCare-Unoptimized

*2026-03-01, version 4.35.0*

They make it a brutal nightmare just to get registered. Probably saves them money having a bunch of people never use their service. Can’t blame Luigi one bit. F UnitedHealth. Seriously. If you have any other choice take it.

### 1/5 — The worst insurance company

*2026-02-11, version 4.34.0*

Its not worth to use this insurance, most of the time copay is only 80% percent of the bill and again premium on this.

### 2/5 — Can’t log into the Surest App

*2026-02-04, version 4.34.0*

I have not been able to log into the Surest app since late 2025. When attempting to log in, the app states there is an error with the Health Safe ID that provides the authentication. When logging in via the browser, I’m redirected to the app which does not load or log me in. My only choice is to delete the app and only use the browser on my phone or on my PC. I’ve contacted support and they were not able to resolve the issue or provide any explanation. I have deleted and reinstalled the app with no success with logging in.

### 1/5 — Can’t Access Online

*2026-02-03, version 4.34.0*

I registered when my coverage first started, however, I have a difficult time accessing the online portal to search for providers. It forgot my password and after resetting it keeps telling me I need to register. Once I try to register it tells me I don’t need to register I can simply “sign in”, which takes me to a screen to confirm my identity, which then takes me to registration screen, again!!! I called customer support and they told me that I should attempt to login from a computer and not my cellphone. Same issue! Why have an app that can’t be accessed? Please fix this issue!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-02-03, version 4.34.0*

This app ostensibly serves as a way for policyholders to find a doctor in their area that’s in-network.  The app is completely useless for this purpose.

When trying to find a primary physician, four highly-rated doctors near me no longer accept Surest. They remain near the top of the search results in my area because of their high ratings. The doctor I settled on is charging me hundreds of dollars for the visit, a far cry from the copay listed in the app.

Oh yeah, those ratings are a score of how much these doctors bill insurance. Doctors that bill a lot get low ratings. The quality of the care does not factor into this rating. It’s a useless metric that only serves to benefit the insurance company, not you.

Unfortunately, the app is the only convenient way to find care, and I’m sure the data collected from my phone is valuable for resale.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — hard to use

*2026-08-11, version 4.42.0*

Login is terrible. The app is really hard to find the right doctor. And surest is easy to audit and reject the medication I got from doctors even it’s totally ok when I used other insurance providers.

### 1/5 — Forced to watch a surest ad

*2026-08-11, version 4.42.0*

I opened the app and it forced me to watch a advertisement for Surest

### 1/5 — trash horrible company

*2026-07-08, version 4.41.0*

the worst health plan you can get is through them, they are a completely trash pathetic company  that likes to act like they are the best but in reality they are trash. there was several times were there was some billing issues with them and they had me to keep calling back and forth with the hospital facility and surest customer support until they can finally get it resolved months later. i wouldn’t recommend this trash pathetic company

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE

*2026-06-03, version 4.39.0*

It crashes constantly, it will log you out, won’t allow Apple to save your password, will force you to reset, EVERY TIME YOU USE THE FACE ID IT WILL RESET ITSSELF. If your company uses this vibe-coded GPT garbage, RUN!!

### 1/5 — Clearly skipped the basics

*2026-06-01, version 4.39.0*

It’s 2026 and their feedback box does not even automatically capitalize “i.” Says everything you need to know about how they value and prioritize user experience.

### 1/5 — Can’t login

*2026-06-01, version 4.39.0*

Haven’t been able to log in since Feb. It’s now June. Had same issue last year for months. “Send Failed” and “Invalid token/ auth code please try again” errors even after resetting password.

### 1/5 — Updated app Face ID won’t work

*2026-05-06, version 4.38.0*

New update and Face ID isn’t an option anymore. It’s there but not clickable.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate Coverage Info

*2026-04-16, version 4.37.0*

The vast majority of locations I have contacted and visited do not accept my insurance, despite them being labeled as in-network on this app. I have found the information on this app to be completely unreliable and I do not recommend it to anyone.

### 1/5 — Worst experience

*2026-04-15, version 4.37.0*

Rating system for providers is horrible, app is clunky and email alerts don’t work. Very difficult to sign in. App launches a website for authentication which bugs out from time to time giving red error message. Paying 3x what I used to pay for drugs and even generics are priced same as name brand. Not happy at all with surest

### 1/5 — UHC needs to fix this app!

*2026-04-06, version 4.36.0*

The maps don’t work well. The menus and popups cover the screen. There’s no way to minimize keyboard. App needs work! UHC app was better.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-07-01, version 4.41.0*

The app is easy to navigate and use

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-06-28, version 4.41.0*

It’s so convenient. I have all the answers I need right at my fingertips.

### 5/5 — Great app. Need Appt Booking

*2026-06-05, version 4.40.0*

It’d be great if appointments can be booked directly from the app itself.

### 5/5 — Great provider

*2026-01-02, version 4.32.1*

I love how I can find a Dr. for just about anything that I am looking to get treated very easy. It even tells me my copay I love that.

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2025-12-30, version 4.32.1*

Great app been with surest for 3 years

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-12-21, version 4.32.1*

Easy to use and find provider.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-12-17, version 4.32.0*

So easy to find options and actually know the cost before receiving care!!

### 5/5 — Doesn’t work for iOS <15.8.5

*2025-09-30*

The old version suggested for iOS 15.8.5 (latest for iPhone 6s and that generation) doesn’t work, it just demands you update and blocks the web page as well until you uninstall it. It’s still possible to access via the web. The older version should probably be removed. Still 5 stars because it’s a fine app on my other phone.

### 5/5 — Love the app but…

*2025-04-26, version 4.21.0*

Please add the availability to add your ID CARD to Apple wallet

### 5/5 — Great plan

*2025-04-25, version 4.20.0*

This plan was a very good choice. I had unexpected medical issues start a year ago. This plan saved me money and the service provided by surest agents is great. They are very helpful with any question I have.
