### 1/5 — Review

*2025-10-29, version 1.0.53*

Doesn’t work half the time

### 1/5 — WORST APP

*2025-10-17, version 1.0.53*

If I could give 0 stars I would. This app literally makes managing my own money the most difficult task ever. Half the features don’t work most of the time, it’s so not user friendly, and I can’t even log in sometimes without it crashing constantly. The old app was wayyyy better and changing it to this piece of garbage has surely cost them a lot of business.

### 1/5 — Worst bank and worst app

*2025-10-05, version 1.0.53*

Might aswell switch banks

### 1/5 — Up to speed

*2025-10-05, version 1.0.51*

They have to catch up where they left when they quit Desjardins!

### 1/5 — Update

*2025-10-05, version 1.0.51*

Demande de faire une mise à jour pour utiliser l’application mais aucune est donné sur l’app store!
Meilleure application banquaire! 
Changer de programmeurs ASAP c’est 2025

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas hors Canada

*2025-10-05, version 1.0.51*

L’application déjà pas « user friendly », impossible de l’ouvrir a l’extérieur du Canada. Tandis que toutes les autres banques fonctionnent.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-09-03, version 1.0.51*

If I could give it negative stats I would. Never works properly. My other banking apps give me zero issues. Uni is the worst!!

### 1/5 — restore the app

*2025-07-20, version 1.0.51*

THE OLD UNI APP IS BETTER THAN NOW

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2025-07-20, version 1.0.51*

This app is terrible, it’s slow, not very responsive, just not user-friendly at all. And the fact that it’s been released for two years now and still doesn’t have Face ID tells you that they are still trying to fix bugs in the system.

### 1/5 — Pas du tout acceptable

*2025-07-20, version 1.0.51*

Cette application ne satisfait pas du tout les attentes en termes d’application pour la gestion de ses finances. La section des marges de crédit cause des erreurs. Je n’ai pas du tout confiance en cette application. C’est la raison principale pour laquelle ma banque/Caisse principale n’est plus UNI

### 1/5 — 2 years after transition

*2025-07-07, version 1.0.50*

It’s been two years of the transition and the app is still not where it should be today design wise. Also still missing Face ID

### 1/5 — Ouf

*2025-06-14, version 1.0.50*

This is so bad, I want to give you a zero. But that’s not possible. So I give you... a one.

### 1/5 — Peu intuitif

*2025-06-14, version 1.0.50*

Je ne comprends toujours pas pourquoi on à opter pour ce genre de façon de penser une application du genre. Pourquoi ne pas s’avoir inspiré des autres plateformes semblable (et performantes) au lieu de vouloir réinventer la roue?

### 1/5 — Brisée

*2025-06-14, version 1.0.49*

L’application me demande de télécharger la dernière version mais elle n’est pas disponible.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2025-06-11, version 1.0.49*

Junk junk junk

### 1/5 — Face ID login still missing…

*2025-04-14, version 1.0.49*

Old app was way more useful and easier to navigate. Why can’t we simply resort to Face ID authentication like we used to have? Feels clunky to have to enter passwords manually in 2025

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Something went wrong

*2026-06-11, version 1.0.63*

Sometimes i can log on, but half of the time no.

### 1/5 — Welcome to 1998

*2026-06-03, version 1.0.63*

Outdated app and website with lack of everything.. Everything!

### 1/5 — Le pire app

*2026-05-29, version 1.0.62*

C’est très décevant que l’application soit aussi pourrie. Incroyable. « Crash » toujours et l’utilisation est tellement pas simple. Ils nous ont forcés à changer à UNI et c’est le pire choix.  Je connais plusieurs personnes qui sont parti depuis la transition et Je vais prendre le démarches pour aller ailleurs à ce point aussi.

### 1/5 — Uni App

*2026-05-19, version 1.0.61*

Worse application I have ever seen. Does not worked 98% of the time. Uni does not know what the problem is and Microsoft doesn’t do anything to solve the problems. Zero star for this app but not even allowed to leave no star.
Dsc

### 1/5 — À améliorer svp

*2026-05-03, version 1.0.61*

Un appli compliqué et pas friendly user

### 1/5 — App not loading

*2026-03-08, version 1.0.56*

The app loads only 40% of the time. Unable to add contacts for etransfers. Very poor application compared to others.

### 1/5 — Mauvais

*2026-02-17, version 1.0.56*

L’app fonctionne pas bien. Essayer plusieurs reprise et peut même pas entrer dedans. Toujours des bugs. C’est plate

### 1/5 — Small buttons, hidden options, App

*2026-01-20, version 1.0.56*

Developers, Please refer to other banks Apps and do something within the same specs here…

### 1/5 — Disapointing limited unintuitive

*2026-01-19, version 1.0.56*

I have used many banking and financial apps in the past 20 years. I have business and personal accounts. This banking app is by far the most disappointing, unintuitive and difficult to use.  There have bbeen a few updates in the past 3 years with very small changes. I have called customer service on 3 occasions in the past 2 years to inquire about some functions and the people on the phone aren’t able to answer my questions. Even worse, they take your name and number for follow up and  on at least 2 occasions did not call back. No case number so you can follow - up either.  If I could give it a half star I would.  For me to take the time to write this review which I seldom do, says a lot about how disapointed I am in this app. A complete debaacle.

C’est pas mal triste. Faites mieux Uni.

### 1/5 — Non intuitive!

*2025-11-23, version 1.0.55*

Cette application est non intuitive. La version d'avant était si simple. Pourquoi changer quelque chose qui fonctionnait bien...

## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Problème

*2025-10-05, version 1.0.51*

Je n’arrive pas à ouvrir mon application d’Unis

### 5/5 — Fière d'être chez UNI

*2023-07-27*

L'app fonctionne bien. Je ne voit pas pourquoi le monde chiale. Perso, l'app est nouvelle et faut lui donner du temps. Comme on dit, la patience est une vertue et malheuresement il y a trop de personne dans la péninsule qu'à la mèche courte. Fière d'être membre d'une caisse acadienne. Merci à tout les membre et ou ceux qui travaille dure sur ce système.

### 4/5 — Uni apps

*2026-03-05, version 1.0.56*

Clavier à disparu

### 4/5 — App uni

*2025-02-02, version 1.0.44*

Peux pas ouvrir la nouvelle version

### 4/5 — The app works great

*2024-09-15, version 1.0.38*

Let’s be honest, a lot of people are complaining only because they don’t know what they are doing. The app work well, only issue is the round graphic to represent your money is pretty much useless, but that’s just a design choice.

### 3/5 — Nicknames

*2026-04-24, version 1.0.61*

The app is decently "user friendly" but it would be nice if you could give nicknames to all your accounts, including TFSA accounts.

### 3/5 — Needs more work

*2025-04-13, version 1.0.49*

Facial Recognition would be a big help

### 2/5 — Online banking

*2024-02-19, version 1.0.36*

The online app freezes after you login in it,and it goes to a white screen. I have reset my phone. I have shut my Wi-Fi and data off and reset it and it still freezes up. I wish this would stop happening. loyal customer for over 10 years and the last two years there’s been a lot of issues with the app. Even after the new app came in place still having issues.

### 2/5 — Uni

*2023-07-28*

The old uni app was better
