1. 5/5Mohan

   American funds mobile app works well and has decent app features. But only problem I had is , it stops allowing me go to login after few weeks of use and give error message as contact plan admin. After I delete app and re-install it works well for few more weeks again. I request you to fix this issue, other than that good for me.

2. 2/5Somewhat Functional Is The Best I Can Say

   Not user friendly, UI is counterintuitive. It’s not easy to add or edit additional income streams (if you have a Roth IRA outside of American Funds and want to track your contributions they have a manual option, but how do I go back and edit it if I decide to contribute more?) As it stands, I’ve scaled my 401k contributions back dramatically and increased my Roth IRA contributions on the assumption that taxes will be much higher when I retire in 30 years. What’s the point of allowing me to track outside income if I can’t edit it easily so that the math reflects my current situation? To be fair, the tool is free. But the functions leaves much to be desired. If my employer did not use American Funds for our retirement, I would never ever utilize their services. It seems as if their app is designed to be opaque and difficult to use for more than the most superficial tasks, like a retirement calculator. There’s like 9000 of those online for free. I would expect more from American Funds. It never fails to boggle my mind that these companies that handle TRILLIONS of dollars a year have the most basic, bare-bones apps possible (also looking at you, Vanguard).

3. 2/5The web interface is easier to use than the App.

   Before the App became available for iPad and iPhone, access was available through a web interface. Actually the web interface was better and now the App interface is clunky and more difficult to use. Additionally, within the App, in the area for Statements & Notices, certain document types will not open and the App doesn’t show the document type nor the type of error. For now, I just access the account on a Mac through the web interface. Much better. The App needs a lot of work.

4. 5/5It’s fine. Please read.

   This app is for people who have their 401ks through their employers. That’s why I was able to get in. The app itself seems functional so far. No issues. I suggest you read a bit before downloading an app that’s not meant for you (referencing all the negative reviews).

5. 1/5Not safe/not reliable

   Unstable and Unsafe for Sensitive Data I’ve used this app for a couple of months now, and it has never worked smoothly. It almost never opens on the first try, often taking 2–3 attempts just to log in. The glitches are constant, and every update promises fixes that never come. That’s frustrating enough—but this isn’t just any app. It holds highly personal 401(k) and financial data. If the login process itself is this unstable, it raises serious concerns about the security of everything inside. Developers need to treat this as urgent: stability and data protection must come first.
