App is unstable which makes it unreliable to use. Every time i have to use it, its with a bit of concern. Logging in using fingerprint does not work every time. Stored list of past transfers do not always show up correctly. If i select a user to start a transfer, stored receiver banking details do not always show up or not show up correctly. It used to be pretty solid but not lately.

The app works smoothly for me and once you have sent money to a contact once, it's quick and easy to resend again. I find the fees to be fair and I love the variety of options to pay such as Google Pay or bank transfers. Great convenience at my fingertips. I'm also pleased to see that biometric login available on the app for secure sign in.

I've been using Western Union for several years now, and they've consistently delivered. Transfers are fast and reliable, arriving exactly when expected. Their customer support has always been helpful whenever I've had questions. The app and website are easy to navigate, making transfers quick and hassle-free. On top of that, the rates and fees are competitive, which matters a lot when sending money regularly. Overall, a trustworthy service I'd recommend without hesitation.
