| 2024-11-08 |  | | By far best savings account ever! Customer service is always helpful when issues arise, which is something i haven't got at other banks. If you have trouble saving like I do I totally recommend it. Seeing my savings grow in a way that isn't just numbers in black and white on paper is amazing. I get excited everyday to open my treasure boxes and decorate my island. Please be patient while using this app, new apps take time to be debugged and fixed. Contact customer service if you need anything. |
| 2024-10-30 |  | | I just lost 30 dollars when I tried to withdraw from my vault and it said it FAILED!! NOW WHERE IS MY MONEY!!! |
| 2024-10-17 |  | | My daily streak reset again because I did not open the app until after 12 in the afternoon...there are still 12 hours before it becomes after midnight and the next day starts...I'm soon pulling my money out...I'm missing out on interest anyway |
| 2024-08-19 |  | | The Cove app doesn't recognize the codes I get to my phone. Nor does it accept that I updated my Email address. This is unacceptable and I deserve better. |
| 2024-08-07 |  | | Edit 4: seems the developers cant read or comprehend that i will not take the word of strangers either someone i know personally vouches for the app or i see with my own eyes the legitimacy of the app by using it without having to give my personal details that its asking for |
| 2024-07-01 |  | | I am unable to link my bank account. Soon after i get through the plaid security system. It sits at about 97% loaded and just sits there. I am interested in trying out this app. But if its going to be loading with out any kind of movement. I am more than happy to keep it at a 1 star. Get this fixed and i will move the the rating up. The more i play it. |
| 2024-06-18 |  | | *EDIT* So after months of giving this a break to work the bugs out, I am ONCE AGAIN, unable to play the damn thing because it keeps asking me to tap on this crate only for NOTHING to happen. Seriously, after almost breaking my screen from applying pressure to it, I tried to tap on this stupid crate. Not even a confirmation that I tapped it, I may as well be tapping on a blank screen. It's still not worth it, still trash. 0/10 Would not recommend. |
| 2024-06-13 |  | | The "trouble verifying your identity" text with no way to be able to confirm my identity with nothing but a unworking proceed button in the vault is what is giving you the one star. Will update my rating once this is taking care of. |
| 2024-05-23 |  | | Just installed didn't use my normal checking account for obvious reasons. It runs slow. It gives you bananas to claim but doesn't show in your banana count. I keep claiming and some say to claim. I do and does nothing. Did I mention I runs super slow. I would like to give it another try soon as they fix their problems. Don't deposit any money until it runs good |
| 2024-04-18 |  | | The decision to gamify saving money is great, but the quests are frustrating. There is no FAQ that I can find to help explain how to do some of them. Like upgrading a decoration, how? You click on one and there is no upgrade option, nor is there any explanation in the quest. Clicking on the quest just brings you back to the island. Also, getting quests that tell you to make a first deposit, when you've already invested money is kinda redundant. Finally, when is grow going to be available? |
