### 5/5 — Touch ID Needed!

*2020-08-02, version 8.0.1*

the app runs smooth and is very easy to operate. my only wish is that they would offer touch id login, which is why i gave it 3/5 stars. this would make it much easier to check my accounts quickly!

### 3/5 — Better but far from perfect

*2020-04-17, version 8.0.0*

Much much better than the previous app.  The only reason I really have this app is to check my transactions and balance and for mobile deposits.  My main irritation of this app is that it’s slow to start up (takes about 15-30 seconds for the app to finally fully load and show my transactions.  That’s far too long of a loading time. My Santander app for my other bank account only takes 2-3 seconds max. And the app has been down a few times which is very annoying.  It was down for the whole weekend a few weeks ago and now just today it’s “down for regular maintenance”. Very annoying.  How about doing the maintenance overnight?  My Santander app has NEVER been down and I’ve had them for over 10 years.

### 3/5 — Ok, when it works

*2020-04-15, version 8.0.0*

Features are much better than previous options. As other reviews have stated, it’s impossible to tell what your actual balance is. Exceedingly frustrating.  Also, the application and/or website is down fairly frequently. I have other bank accounts who’s application features are far more robust and stable.

### 5/5 — Access

*2020-02-09, version 8.0.0*

Sometimes the app doesn’t always work, but I do enjoy having the app on my phone for quick access.

### 5/5 — SmartPay/ApplePay

*2019-09-30, version 8.0.0*

I was hoping the new update would have the option for smart pay. I can’t use apps like digit with Webster 5 since it’s not updated. I love the bank but not the technology. It’s 2019

**Developer response:** Great news! We do have the ability for you to add your Webster Five debit card to your Apple Wallet, which isn’t controlled by our app. If you need assistance adding your Webster Five debit card to your Apple Wallet, please contact us at 800-696-9401.

### 1/5 — When is the next update?

*2021-08-09, version 8.0.1*

The photos on here are VERY misleading. The option to log into your account with Touch/Face ID is unavailable. It’s a bit frustrating to have to put in the credentials every single time. The Bank has been around for a while please fix this!!

### 1/5 — Terrible bank

*2021-04-24, version 8.0.1*

Terrible app. I have 5 banks and this is by far the worst. App is terrible on mobile

### 1/5 — Bill Pay

*2020-11-27, version 8.0.1*

Far worse than previous bill pay. Still no up to date balance. Really? What century are you in Web5? And what the heck is the difference between current and available? And why is my bill pay not in alphabetical order? Horrible horrible system!

### 1/5 — Inconsistent access - no facial recognition icon

*2019-12-10, version 8.0.0*

It’s hit or miss if you get the facial recognition icon. When it’s there the app works fine - in fact it is far more user friendly than the crappy desk top version. Sometimes I might wait for a minute then the icon might appear. Should I attempt to sign on manually with my desktop Username and password it simply says it’s invalid. This inconsistency needs to be fixed immediately.

### 1/5 — Trouble

*2019-11-20, version 8.0.0*

I can down load but not open
Uninstalled and reinstalled no luck

### 1/5 — New update

*2019-10-31, version 8.0.0*

I can’t stand the new app update!!! I used to be running out the door and could quickly sign on to see my balance now it legit takes 5 min to sign on!! I just wait and wait and wait UGH

### 2/5 — Mobile deposit

*2023-03-02*

What can be done about mobile deposit limits currently I can only deposit 2500

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work at times

*2022-04-07, version 8.0.1*

I have to delete the app and then redownload it at least 2 to 3 times a week

### 2/5 — Website

*2020-04-15, version 8.0.0*

Poor  website/ bill pay Lots of glitches.  Hope some day this bank can figure it out

### 3/5 — depositing checks

*2021-01-30, version 8.0.1*
