Dec 9, 2022 update:Credit card repayments are impossible with the latest version. There’s no way to dismiss the numerical keyboard. Please fix asap. Thanks!The app is a huge improvement over the previous banking app, that drove me crazy with its hamburger menus and typos. The app might’ve had issues when it was launched last week, but I haven’t noticed any problems so far. I could find every functionality I need and the lack of dijnet integration doesn’t bother me. The only thing I disliked is the app’s name, but a quick search revealed that it actually refers to the very first autopilot. So, I’ve come to peace with this, too. Bottom line: it’s a pretty good banking app. Thanks, and stay safe and well!

Dear Károly,We are very pleased with your kind words, thank you so much :-)Regards,Erste Bank
So frustrating to use
Roland;
Both the app and the web app are under maintenance quite often and I find it ‘interesting’ that there’s no alternative solution available during the wait, so it’s impossible to reach your account. I cannot wrap my head around the fact that this went through probably a whole department, or more, and it even became available to the public like this. Oh well.Tracking expenses is a nightmare. Sadly “George” is not smart enough to keep up with the data that the Erste customer base is generating. Sometimes it shows the spendings immediately, but most of the time days or week(s) apart and the best thing is that it even mixes it up with all kinds of dates, how fun is that?!The app is a significant upgrade over the last one, well, at least it could and probably will be, but in the meantime it generates unnecessary headaches that could have been prevented.
modern looking but not intuitive

It looks up to date, the design is clean and the interface looks good but unfortunately the usage is a bit hard. Im 20 years old I’d like to think im good with all kinds of technology but this one is unnecessarily hard to use because it’s not very intuitive. Some things are hard to find, hidden in a random place, and the search would be great for this if i didn’t have to type in the exact name of what i’m searching for. But the thing is I don’t know what this app named the thing im looking for lol. Thats all. It’d be great if some things which are used often are easier to find like my bank details so i can transfer money, and the search got updated a little so every function has a description and if it matches with what im typing in the search bar it pops up. Thanks!

Push notifications became useless on iOS
ptallai
Since the last update push notifications don’t show content at all, just a message to click on them for more details, but that then it takes you nowhere. I sent a message to help desk, first they thought it’s my issue… then I sent details after further testing… since then just automated messages came as response stating it’s being worked on (no real information, no target date) but of course I’m sure that they will charge me for the not working service … Is the aim to force us back to SMS notifications?
Developer Response
Dear Customer! We have fixed the data display problem experienced with the notification. Please install the new version of the application, 24.10.46. We apologize for the inconvenience! Best regards, Erste
