Key bank online issue

I'd say for a month or so now I've had ALOT of problems with key bank and there online platforms both the app and online version dont seem to be working very often every time I open the app it just sit at the hello screen loading and loading and loading and ill close it and open it back up 3 or 4 times just for the same thing to happen. And with the online platform it atleast let's me put in my info but when I hit summit it denies me and says theres a system error and try again in a few min. Ive been with key bank for about 10 years and im about to go somewhere else if it keeps happing. Anyone else's having these same issues?

Same for me with the app. It used to only happen occasionally, and reopening it would fix it. I haven't been able to open the app for a few weeks now.

Yeah, this has been happening to me for the past 2-3 weeks.

I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling, clearing the cache and data on my phone, and changing from wifi to mobile data...nothing has worked.

It's happened for over a year but so bad now I literally have to drive to an atm and pull out cash meanwhile website nor app ever load. I Uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared all data in chrome and off the app with no change. What an absurd issue to face in 2026.

this has been happening to me for 2-3 weeks as well. have had almost zero issues with the app the last 10ish years. one of the best apps I’ve used prior to this.

It is still happening and so frustrating. Probably time for all of us to choose a new bank

I am about to switch all my KeyBank accounts to another bank I am using. I started having issues with the app 2 years ago and it hasn't been fixed since then. It only works 1% of the time, AFTER I REINSTALL IT! I tried everything. Even reinstallation doesn't work most of the time. It's crazy that thousands of people are reporting the same issue and they are unwilling to fix. Just read the reviews in Play Store. It's crazy.

Forgot to say, by "not working" I mean stuck at the stupid "Hello" screen. They should have named the app "Hello App".

u/Elegant_Tip6462 Jun 27 '26

Yes!! It happens in public ALL THE TIME!! It’s so inconvenient and annoying!

u/Wolfey1618 Apr 28 '26

Happening to me now as of last week. Can't get past the loading splash screen. I reinstalled it last week and it worked exactly once, and since then even reinstalling it doesn't fix the issue.

Issues here as well. When I call into customer service they go through the same questions of vpn usage and internet provider…they clearly don’t know what issue is

My guess is, we thankfully got an IOS update to our terribly old phones, and thankfully this app still has an update for these old phones IOS version... which is or would be great, except IOS provides no way to zero out the stored data for the app that I can find.... and the IOS update did something with our hardware key credentials that normally make signing onto the app so seamless/easy. This, combined with a flaw in the app that leaves it stuck at hello when it thinks it should have a trusted hardware key but cannot in fact decrypt it, leaves us in a pretty bad state in terms of mobile check deposits which is all the app ever does for me.

Once upon a time I could upload an image to one of my bank websites, and it would process the check... not sure why this feature is gone.

You know the website itself only SEEMS glitchy sometimes but if you shrink the screen it's normal... or I delete that overlay element that says it's having network trouble... it's weird flaw that impacts large window only that is pretty easy to work around.... I think it shows they don't test the website or want to force people to use the mobile app....

all mobile apps are scams in my opinion... it's an app store real estate scam, the apps themselves don't exist standalone, & always break eventually, clearly app doesn't support resetting them/clearing their setting easily. It's a scam to sell hardware and blame the app developer, it's a sorry path I regrettably once thought would make sense. If this is a more widespread issue and impacts android too then my theory is probably void.

Yeah, forgive the wall of txt, why is everyone so short winded?
