🐛 5 months without update in this day and age represents a decade
🐛 New iOS
🐛 Old app

🐛 Several days trying to open the app and cannot even access
🐛 Regret
🐛 Useless
🐛 I open it and only see a white screen
🐛 Cannot understand how a bank with its financial capacity allows apps like this to represent its brand
🐛 Don't understand how developers produce such a mess
🐛 App won’t open, just blank grey screen
🐛 Displays BPI logo then a blank grey screen
🐛 Can’t do anything
🐛 It does not work!
🐛 Not a native app but rather a display of web pages
🐛 Has not worked at all for over a week now
🐛 BPI, don't you want to do something?
🐛 We are in 2022!
🐛 No access to the application
🐛 For two weeks the App has not opened
🐛 The screen appears white
🐛 I am out of the country and need access to my account

🐛 So I can no longer access my application
🐛 Useless app as I cannot understand Portuguese
🐛 BPI bank will not assist
🐛 Will need to move accounts elsewhere
🐛 Received the same “standard” reply sent previously with just the same grievance as expressed above
🐛 Very unfortunately BPI bank is no longer suitable if you are not sufficiently able to communicate in Portuguese
🐛 Cannot register new bank card sent to me since this has to be done in the app
🐛 The app is in Portuguese and I cannot understand it sufficiently
🐛 My local BPI bank branch have advised they cannot assist and the new bank card has to be registered in the app
🐛 Cannot access my funds
🐛 SMS with authorization code does not work
🐛 Tried many times to enter the app
🐛 Even the bank manager tried to help me, but it didn't work
🐛 The app does not send the authorization code to the registered cell phone
🐛 Does not work
🐛 Does not work on iPhone
🐛 Installed this app on 2 iPhone 13 pro max and it does not work
🐛 The screen turns white and the app opens any functionality
🐛 Not working at all
🐛 Have been using this app for a couple of years
🐛 Now not working at all
🐛 Deleted and reinstalled and still not working
🐛 English version
🐛 Come on BPI, it’s 2022, you can surely make an English version of the app
🐛 Doubt
🐛 Want to open a new account and would like to know which is the most recommended for daily payments and debits?
🐛 Also want to know about the costs this account may have
🐛 Doesn't open
🐛 When I open the app everything turns white and nothing appears
🐛 Cannot see
🐛 I am abroad and it is not working
🐛 Horrible
🐛 Does not work
🐛 Since the last update two weeks ago, the app does not work
🐛 Updated on 06.07.2022 - still not working, showing only a white screen
🐛 Needs improvement
🐛 Despite the quality and functioning within the app having progressed in recent years, it still needs improvements in terms of architecture
🐛 App is slow to log in
🐛 Has some problematic areas within the app
🐛 Every time I open it says it's updating
🐛 Blocks me for entering with a VPN
🐛 Accesses if I enter with a VPN (security reasons they say)
🐛 If I try to navigate fast and the system makes too many requests, it also blocks me
🐛 Have to call support to unlock
🐛 This last update, I cannot log in to the app
🐛 Maybe invest in a native app with better architecture to avoid these problems
🐛 English language not available
🐛 Only Portuguese language…
🐛 Bug
🐛 There is a bug preventing payment to the state!!!
🐛 Please fix it, you are preventing payments with this error: pay remains grayed out and unusable
🐛 Update
🐛 I have been trying to open the App for two days
🐛 Already did the update and nothing… horrible
🐛 Have to make payments and my hands are tied!!
🐛 Very well made app, needs English language option
🐛 The app is easy to use and very user friendly
🐛 Very easy to manage finances and reporting
🐛 My only advice to improve the app further would be to add English language as the option
🐛 I do not know Portuguese too well and as such am struggling to use it
🐛 However, I have assets and liabilities in Portugal and as such need to make sure I am on top of the finances
🐛 Cannot make transfers
🐛 On iPhone 11 the transfer screen does not allow typing the confirmation code
🐛 Need to English as well
🐛 Application must English as well
🐛 No options in the App to contract insurance, currency exchange, investments, portability
🐛 Needs to increase digital services
🐛 Complete however not very didactic
🐛 Like the App, find it quite complete, with good options
🐛 However, I think it is not very didactic and easy to use
🐛 To discover the functions, you need to invest time to understand all functions and divert attention from the excessive advertisements on the main screens of the App
🐛 Otherwise, I feel satisfied
🐛 Excellent app
🐛 Very complete app, and works very well
🐛 Has warnings of your debits to be debited, information on where you spend your money and with monthly summary...
🐛 Recommend
🐛 No English version ☹️
🐛 Not an awful lot of good without having an English option like the laptop version
🐛 Don’t feel confident using it at all
🐛 Poor quality for a bank application
🐛 For those living abroad and wanting to access their account in Portugal, it becomes almost impossible
🐛 Especially with the Covid 19 situation
🐛 If you want to compete in the current market, you should invest in making simple and practical applications and of course in several languages
🐛 Poor App
🐛 This app at the very best works intermittently and is slow and sticky
🐛 Have had to uninstall the old app and put downloaded this new one on IOS 13.6 and it doesn’t even open
🐛 This is poor as without it I can’t access my Portuguese account from the UK
🐛 They need to sort this glitch out and get an app that actually works especially for something so important as banking
🐛 App rarely opens
🐛 How is it possible to be so limited in a time like this?
🐛 No point asking to send details as seen in other reviews
🐛 The problem persists for a long time and they have had time to rectify
🐛 Look at the Apps of Novo Banco or CGD
🐛 I think I will change...
🐛 English
🐛 Please also add English language to app thanks
🐛 Alert alert
🐛 Big garbage Bank
🐛 No right Kontakt Mail or Cell
🐛 Zero customer service
🐛 Bad application
🐛 Today when trying to use the application, I had my account access blocked
🐛 The application closes when you enter the authorization code sent by SMS by the Bank
🐛 Does not work properly on Apple phones
🐛 My phone is new and updated
🐛 This application needs to be corrected
🐛 Do not recommend the use
🐛 Too bad
🐛 It would also be good to have the application in French
🐛 Always the same, English translation grrrrr
🐛 The app rarely opens!
🐛 The new app, which was supposed to be much better, rarely opens
🐛 When it opens, it crashes on the first content selection
🐛 It was really a change for the worse
🐛 We have to depend on the website for everything
🐛 No longer opens since the last update :-/
🐛 Nothing opens it: neither PIN code, nor TouchID!
🐛 No longer works
🐛 This app was great until yesterday’s update now it doesn’t work at all
🐛 Have an iPhone 6 and all I get is a blank white screen, it won’t even load
🐛 How is this possible?
🐛 A bank so large that enables an app update that doesn't work
🐛 Can be more better if it’s in English
🐛 This app should be in English
🐛 Please do update in English version as well
🐛 It’s really difficult for people who don’t speak Portuguese
🐛 Languages
🐛 This app is of very limited use if you do not speak Portuguese
🐛 I am learning Portuguese but it is a very difficult language as the spelling and the pronunciation tend to be very different
🐛 iPad ?
🐛 There is no excuse that in the year 2019 BPI, one of the largest Portuguese banks, still has not invested in an iPad application
🐛 Since the iPad is a very useful tool for financial instruments, I don't see the idea of only maintaining (and with totally bad performance) a mobile application only available for phones
🐛 Have accounts in other international banks which have frequent maintenance of apps for both phone and tablet
🐛 Give 3 stars because I know BPI has the capacity to improve and has room for it
🐛 Hope to review in the future
🐛 Language’s options, please!
🐛 This app should be also in English!
🐛 What about the Erasmus students that open an account?
🐛 Or the other foreigners that move to Portugal?
🐛 Hopeless
🐛 Does not display on iPad, just a narrow non functioning menu on left hand side
🐛 Been this way for ages since redesign
🐛 Poor user usability & no iphone x support
🐛 The user experience is not great special when the app is using the main screen as a billboard!
🐛 No iphone X support after all this time
🐛 Not working
🐛 App was working fine but from last couple weeks on, screen's white and doesn't work beyond that
🐛 Nothing special
🐛 Was annoyed to have to install a new application when I already had the BPI App
🐛 Understand that there may be a very strong reason why BPI cannot simply update the old application, but I as a user have no fault in that and they don't even inform what that reason will be...
🐛 This application's positive aspect is only TouchID login, because otherwise you won't have any significant functionality that the other version has
🐛 Moreover, the entry page now bombards the user with advertising for BPI products, as if that were of any use
🐛 Now I have to navigate several steps to do what in the other App was two taps away
🐛 But it is indeed very simple to see and click on beautiful banners of fantastic insurance, request even more credit cards or even buy exclusive prestige products
🐛 That yes, one tap away
🐛 In summary, delete and continue to use the old App until it stops working, or until this one is made for the benefit of the user and not for the benefit of the bank
🐛 Updates
🐛 As a user of the old bpi app, I cannot understand why I have to download a new app, when all other companies in the world simply update existing apps to new versions
🐛 Now we will have to make a new registration, wait for an SMS that I will never receive because I live outside Portugal and the result is... continue to access online banking via Safari
🐛 If we want to be innovative, we have to start with the basics
