This is why I moved my brokerage funds back to Robinhood. Both traditional account and Roth IRA. Still use SoFi for banking, but their UI is clumsy and cartoonish. They need to get serious about it. They need to fire Jeremy Rishel.

Looks fine to me.

Zero complaints on the UI. I think it works pretty well and I love the notifications when a payment has been charged to my card. Compared to other banks’ UI SOFi is better. I have BofA, Wells, JPM, TD, & USAA. Honestly SoFi is probably 2nd to BofA in terms of ease of use. None of them allow trading in app either. Sometimes I get the feeling people like to complain.

It’s bland and clunky, many times when I look at my 1W and 1M charts it’ll look completely flat even despite 20% gains in a day. Whatever they’re doing with the charts needs serious help so it appears consistent and doesn’t flatten randomly Edit: other than that I’m pretty happy with it. Lol

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. It is an all in one app that has been waiting for its bread and butter student loans to come back. It’s survived the pandemic and moratorium and has kept its promise to pass on savings to members in forms of APY. Sure I understand you want improvements but it’s working and folks are continuing to direct deposit. One major update that could jeopardize trust if gone wrong is not worth it until we are fully operational

I actually like it, but whatever, cool

Agree. It's fine. Don't piss off old people (who have a lot more money) trying to be cool and more complicated than it needs to be


thefocusnotice

Cool and simplicity should be one and the same. Catering to old people that have stopped learning is not a good business decision.

Their app and website crushes most others IMHO, not sure how much better/"hipper" it could be.


thefocusnotice

Modern mobile banking has a very low bar when it comes to design. SoFi is just barely above that bar. It could be sooo much better.


the_bollo

Can you be more specific? Which apps would you model after? Which portions of UX are clunky or feel outdated to you? Employees crawl these forums for feature requests so the more specific you can be the better the outcome (and the more likelihood you'll get traction).


kinglittlenc

I've got no complaints on the app design tbh. The layout feel pretty intuitive imo.


thefocusnotice

To me the User interface is bland and unintuitive.


Executabull

is there another bank you can use that’s more cool?


Which-Resident7670

I know it's mainly a mobile banking app bank... But their website is horrendous.


thefocusnotice

Agreed. Hopefully one day we can get to a robinhood level of simplicity and user experience https://preview.redd.it/f4k8cezvb94b1.png?width=1600&format=png&auto=webp&s=178f574c807b3e5ff81c8743702ad3c34313020f


the_bollo

As someone who uses the app mostly for conventional checking/savings management, I have no complaints.


SoFi_Best

+1. I don't have any issues with it other than a bit of spam. Experience itself is simple and all in one place.


thefocusnotice

I disagree. The app desperately needs to be cool.


luckyrice

We need to gamify it


cursh14

Isn't that exactly what the sofi points stuff is all about?


rq60

pls no


mis0h0ney

This coming from someone that is the complete opposite of cool


thefocusnotice

Ouch : )


Supportakaiser

So like, more memes or something?


thefocusnotice

The UI is so odd. They're supposed to be the hip online bank that cares about you. Yet, the design appears like this: https://preview.redd.it/mmfr8un3g84b1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ffdc2bae3ab5250b6b933cb9401a02cb51e6b1ac It just seems so outdated and archaic to me. Where's the cool factor? I expect much more from a modern tech company.


socaldan92

I couldn't agree more it needs to have a more modern tech webull like ui

Hoeger about to post a tweet from Noto saying “we’re working on it” as if it’s news lol
