### 3/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-01-18, version 3.5.0*

Account creation doesn’t work, when I say yes or no to Face ID the app crashes and can’t get it to work.

### 4/5 — Convenient

*2026-01-16, version 3.5.0*

App works as expected. There was a glitch in attempting to create an account via the app, so I did that part in a browser and came back to the app to login. From there, all worked well and it’s a convenient method for giving.

### 3/5 — Date of giving hard to navigate

*2025-08-31, version 3.3.3*

It is hard to change giving date.

### 3/5 — Can’t edit recurring gifts

*2025-08-29, version 3.3.3*

I’m trying to delete an old tithe because I actually made a new one that is more than my old tithe. I can’t delete it. So buggy. I also wanted to change the new tithe and I also can’t change it. I don’t want to add a third recurring gift. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

### 5/5 — Tithe.ly giving app

*2025-06-28, version 3.3.0*

Great way to give using the app. So quick and easy

### 3/5 — Not great - just ok

*2025-05-05, version 3.2.0*

I like the ability to pay my tithes with an app, but the biggest problem is that it defaults to paying the fees. It shouldn’t do that.

### 5/5 — Buena app

*2025-05-03, version 3.2.0*

Es rápido, fácil y sencillo de usar 😇❤️

### 5/5 — The app

*2025-04-27*

I find this app very helpful and easy to navigate. Of course in the beginning I had a few issues, only because I am not good with these things. It’s all good now. 
Convenient to be able to give in a consistent way.

### 5/5 — Giving

*2025-03-26, version 3.2.0*

I’m so glad technology is advancing to help us give more abundantly

### 5/5 — Easy

*2025-03-23, version 3.1.7*

Thanks for an easy way to manage Church giving!  (And I am far from tech savvy 😁).

### 5/5 — Convenient + Secure

*2025-03-08, version 3.1.7*

I appreciate the convenience and security that this app provides.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-03-06, version 3.1.7*

Super easy to use. The app is clean and designed well. I always feel safe sending my money to my church through Tithe.ly

### 1/5 — Problem

*2026-07-30, version 3.6.3*

It keeps telling me to update and it won’t let me at the same time.

### 1/5 — Total Frustration with Tithe.ly

*2026-07-02, version 3.6.3*

This company will find ways to debit your bank accounts long after your account is closed with them.  I have sent email after email to get them to stop illegally taking my from my accounts.  They have even debited accounts that wasn’t registered as payment for them.  It’s a very frustrating experience and so I do not recommend using this platform.

### 1/5 — Can’t even create an account

*2026-01-19, version 3.5.0*

I tried to create a username and password three different ways.  
1. The church organization hosting Tithe.ly portal.. the church website allowed me access to Tithe.ly but I was unable to create an account. Every time I clicked create account it just refreshed. 
2. I went to Tithe.ly website to create account, with similar issues. 
3. I downloaded the app, tried their and the site crashed three times before I could finish creating an account. 

This app is horrible.

### 1/5 — Create an Account Does Not Work

*2026-01-05, version 3.4.4*

The app is stuck at a black screen that simply says “Thanks! Create your unlock pin.” However, there is no keyboard shown in which to type, no blank text box in which to click, or any other way in which the process could progress.

### 1/5 — Practically useless

*2026-01-02, version 3.4.4*

It is almost possible to make changes to my account.  Can barely navigate the website.  Trying to cancel, but that’s not working either. Yet money is still coming out of my bank account.

### 1/5 — Can’t fix error

*2025-03-24, version 3.1.7*

I sent an amount to wrong place. They have no way to refund transactions
Made in error. I will not be using this again

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2025-03-22, version 3.1.7*

App wouldn’t open had to delete and reinstall many times and now it sleeps when im trying to add payment method . Def needs some bug fixing

### 1/5 — Deplorable by pass of Apple Pay security

*2025-03-05, version 3.1.7*

This app - while serving a useful purpose - severely compromises Apple Pay security by storing the card for reuse outside the Secure Enclave at variable amounts.  I’m shocked Apple allowed this abomination into the App Store and will be emailing Apple to investigate.  They really should look at other apps as there are many that work with Apple Pay as intended with secure per transaction validation.

### 1/5 — What’s the point

*2024-11-27, version 3.1.5*

Why does this app direct me to a browser interface? There’s literally no point to having this app take up space on my phone if it just leads me to my browser anyway.

Edit: the last update was a year ago—maybe even longer. That explains a lot.

Update: 4/20/20

This app is still terrible. Touch ID doesn’t work. I’ve given the app permission to use Touch ID so many times and every time I try to log in it always makes me input my password and pin and then asks again if I want to sign in with Touch ID 😒 you’d think with two years to work on it the latest update would actually make the app functional but all it does is make the green background a little less harsh.

Update: 11/27/24

App is still terrible. I guess there was a recent update that logged me out and also deleted all my account info so now I have to create a new account and set everything up again. Honestly, what’s the point.

### 1/5 — Worst experience with an app EVER

*2024-11-22*

I’ve heard the tithly name being thrown around for a while now. Our ministry is just now starting to make enough money for it to matter, and we gave it a try. 

Literally, from asking inappropriate and unnecessary questions on signup, to the signup form freezing on submission, to “invalid token” errors on the web browser, to not being able to login to the app without a EIN, to no tech support, to even their AI chat bot freezing up, to clearly providing generic AI responses to bad reviews, it’s been quite possibly the much frustrating 30 minutes in recent memory. 

How is this platform used by anyone?

### 5/5 — Easy!

*2026-03-24, version 3.5.5*

The app is user friendly and has different options of giving; one time, weekly, monthly, etc. 

I would suggest for an option to add notes/comments for donation within each church ministry. 

An example of a note: 
“In memory of…..”

### 5/5 — Tithe.ly makes giving easy

*2025-12-07, version 3.4.3*

If you can’t make it to Church or would like to Give to a much needed cause, Tithe.ly lists what the Church needs.  Food Pantry, Window Restoration, Christmas Store etc.  This is Very Nice!
