This App is very out of date and not user friendly. At login you are given the option to sign in using the fingerprint scanner, which has not been installed on most iPhones for years. The loading screen doesn’t even load properly when I sign in. Nothing is laid out in a user friendly manner. I have a very hard time interpreting any of the graphs or schematics because they’re not optimally formatted for iPhone. I previously used the Fidelity Net benefits app for my 401k with my old job, and it has been very difficult to go from an app with such a high level of functionality, to this app. Would not recommend this app if you are able to avoid it. Unfortunately my company uses Newport group, so I’m stuck.

I use quite a few financial apps to help manage my investments so I have very high expectations especially when I am forced to use a specific company for my 401k. This app only does the most basic function: it can show you the account balance and performance. It does not allow you to make changes to investments or even your contributions. In order to do this, you must log in through the website. I am very disappointed with it and plan to use other apps to track my 401k until this gets fixed. Once it’s fixed, I will update this review.

The original app wasn’t working so I removed it from my phone and then downloaded the new app. Tried to log on but kept getting a pop up telling me my credentials didn’t match so I rest my password and then was able to log on. So I closed out of the app and closed out the app in my background and then reopened the app and tried to log on the new app and it told me again that my credentials didn’t match. So the only way for me to go to the web site is by laptop or computer.

Just downloaded to manage annuity fund. It does work easy to navigate two thumbs up then after that there’s nothing else this app does except show you information so I could see where some of the negative reviews come from. In this day and age this app should be able to do more than just show you a balance unless this is done for security reasons. My recommendation to the developer try to add more functionality to this to this app!!!
