★★★★ "This app runs like trash on Android. Logging in is slow, if it opens at all. Clicking on anything once inside the app also takes forever to load. I'm using a flagship device connected to a 500mbps connection, so no, it's not my hardware!" - Romani Hanna

★★★★ Heath 6/20/2026 v4.9.0
why does it take 60 seconds to log in? this is ridiculous
★★★★ Rds Ter 6/10/2026
Why is it that ART can make the QSuper app really quick and useful, yet the this Sunsuper app is virtually non functional? Takes 60 secs to load, details on investments were removed a year ago, and the work around is faulty and buggy. The website is deteriorating, can't view contributions without an error. Weekly scheduled maintenance only makes everything worse. Is ART fit to be a fund manager?
★★★★ Neil Phillips 6/9/2026 v4.9.0
They've just implemented unsecure SMS based MFA in 2025. slow clap. Please also fix timing of deposit notifications. 8 days afterwards is pointless.
★★★★ Alex Lohrere 6/1/2026 v4.9.0
Ridiculously slow to login, progressively getting slower and slower as time goes on.
★★★★ Mark Grieve 5/26/2026 v4.9.0
Slowest login to an app I've ever experienced, takes literally 45 seconds. Has been like this for many months now and plenty of others stating the same. Please let us know when you are going to fix your tech stack.
★★★★ Master Jefferson 5/20/2026 v4.9.0
Investment asset allocation not showing as promised in today's update. Also, login seems to take an eternity. This has been consistent since the last major update
★★★★ Julian Visser 5/15/2026 v4.9.0
Extremely slow login, many features require logging into the website which kind of defeats the purpose of the app.
★★★★ Dave Lloyd 5/12/2026 v4.9.0
Replaced review. new app had a while where authentication was quickish for a while, but that's long gone. it is soo slow to login now. also now seems impossible to view your investment spread. App is basically useless now and I'm forced to use Web instead (which is still as slow molasses incidently)
★★★★ H G 5/9/2026
Doesn't let me login directly and if it does then it takes forever. Once I'm logged in, it takes even more time to load each screen! Why bother wasting members' money on such a terrible mobile app & backend!! Please do us a favour and delist this app from the play store so we don't waste our time and potentially get more of our money's worth!! 'Kudos' to the product team!
★★★★ Marc 4/28/2026 v4.8.0
Terrible performance. Takes ages to load and frequently errors out.
★★★★ Chris Nihill 4/22/2026 v4.8.0
They make it difficult for people to withdraw their superannuation, webchat is never available. I left Australia and I can't withdraw my superannuation.
★★★★ Mark O'Loughlin 4/12/2026 v4.7.0
This app has the slowest login time I have ever seen, in any app. It is painfully slow, to the point that I am hesitant to check my balance, which is disappointing, because I like to check it daily. Something needs to be done ASAP to fix it. FYI, I am using a premium Galaxy S25 on ultra high speed broadband, so no issues with performance at my end.
★★★★ Timothy Kim 4/5/2026 v3.3.5
its not running on my device.
★★★★ David Pryce 3/14/2026 v3.3.5
app will not open
★★★★ Shaun Geddes 3/11/2026 v4.7.0
I can't get into it. it just goes in circles from the app to internet and back to the app.
★★★★ TY 3/8/2026 v4.7.0
slow, clunky, doesn't work
★★★★ Paul Drummond 3/1/2026 v4.6.0
This an appallingly bad app. Hard to believe a huge company like this can produce such poor quality. The balance update is hit and miss as to when it was last updated. You need to go to the website to get your actual balance. The UI is just horrible and navigating to find what you want is convoluted to say the least. It is down most weekends for updates but nothing ever seems to be updated.
★★★★ Melba Boland 3/1/2026 v4.2.0
just like every other super fund. Theives.
★★★★ Michael Shepherdson 2/25/2026 v4.6.0
This is a frustrating app. If I want to check my investments e.g. number of units and unit price, I need to tap Investments then Manage investments then Exit because I am in the Change investments screen, then Yes before what I want is revealed. What more is there to say.
★★★★ Chade Everdark (Lee) 2/20/2026 v4.6.0
App doesn't open, due to a "technical error". No other details provided.
★★★★ Romani Hanna 2/19/2026 v4.6.0
This app runs like trash on Android. Logging in is slow, if it opens at all. Clicking on anything once inside the app also takes forever to load. I'm using a flagship device connected to a 500mbps connection, so no, it's not my hardware!
★★★★ SKYLINE R33 2/5/2026 v4.6.0
cant even log in... error every time
★★★★ veronica mathieson 1/26/2026 v4.5.0
having trouble signing in
★★★★ narelle wilson 1/18/2026 v4.2.0
not happy not compatible with my phone any more why ??
★★★★ Joel Porter 1/4/2026 v3.3.5
new app isn't compatible with my phone 🙄 absolute joke
★★★★ Brad 12/12/2025 v4.5.0
SunSuper/ART used to be great. Now with latest app/website update it's impossible to change super investments, plus huge administration barriers to nominate beneficiaries. Ultimately making members not in control how super is invested, and robbery upon death - superannuation lost to the ether
★★★★ Adam Young 12/3/2025 v4.5.0
constantly crashes on login. Essentially unusable
★★★★ Joey P 11/26/2025 v4.4.0
Ive been getting an error on the app for weeks, and can't enter. If you can't manage an app well, how do I expect you to manage my retirement?
★★★★ Fred Wu 11/24/2025 v4.4.0
Sign in doesn't work so the app is unusable. Tried multiple times, always got stuck in either the MFA code step, or at the confirm passcode step - the app simply hangs with the loading indicator.
★★★★ Brodie Leech 11/21/2025 v4.4.0
App constantly crashes after using either passcode or biometrics to sign in. Only solution is to clear all data and go through the initial setup again each time.
★★★★ Anthony Borell 11/15/2025 v4.4.0
App is broken v16 android. Can't see password as you type, says it has technical difficulties as soon as it loads.
★★★★ Darren Barrett 11/15/2025 v4.4.0
Recent update to version 4.4 and now the app crashes within 5 seconds of logging in
★★★★ Rick Gale 11/7/2025 v3.3.5
useless app doesn't work on android phone would have rated zero if I could
★★★★ Mark Gold 11/6/2025
suddenly not compatible with my device. my device is 5 years old not 10. and even if it was, this should be accessible to all kinds of devices.
★★★★ Neilba Gibson 11/1/2025 v3.2.7
rely on this for my super details but need that many access codes randomly I may as well keep my super in a bank
★★★★ Shally Hearne 10/29/2025 v4.4.0
USLESSS totally stupid they need fix it over it taking me round and round in circlues
★★★★ Jack Thompson 10/9/2025 v3.3.5
not compatible with my device anymore apparently
★★★★ John Stanners 10/6/2025 v3.3.5
please update app for Android use.
★★★★ Corina Mayo 10/3/2025 v3.3.5
no longer supports my device, very disappointing
★★★★ Shankaran Subramanyam 9/28/2025 v4.2.0
these days the app function and performance is bed and very bad. when page opens comes with window saying login session expired. re login. even after it comes with same message what is the use of it in the mobile if unit price not clear total amount last update is very long back what is the digital activity happened in the account and fund . big question mark
★★★★ Deb Kurikka 9/27/2025 v4.2.0
USELESS!
★★★★ Shaan Patil 9/25/2025 v3.3.5
It was working until last update, with new update it seems "the app isn't compatible with my device" or the other way around. Why I should change my device to access this one app? why I can't keep using the older version which work fine?
★★★★ Luke Craig 9/24/2025 v4.2.0
app sends you in a circle trying to recover your account. It finds your account sends you back to the app with still no ability to log in. genuinely terrifying that large corporations can't get even the most basic functionality of the apps right.
★★★★ Abus Setiawan 9/23/2025 v4.2.0
i can open the app but its showing an error
★★★★ ken street 9/19/2025 v4.2.0
it takes like 1 minute to login
★★★★ Maureen Wise 9/15/2025 v3.3.5
Told I need to update my app but then told my Samsung phone doesn't support the update. I'm not prepared to buy a new phone just to update this app. Not happy, Jan!
★★★★ Thomas 9/11/2025 v4.2.0
not good
★★★★ Steven Kelly 9/10/2025 v3.3.5
app has been UPDATED not able to work on my device anymore. what a joke. tech boys get with it not everyone can afford to update all the time
★★★★ Katy Checkley 8/28/2025 v3.3.5
Wont open for Android. Dont really want to be with a company that alienates half its customers. Def uninstalling the App, might also move my super elsewhere.
★★★★ Donna Clark 8/27/2025 v3.3.5
S10+ not compatible..
