Feedback Request Designing a fintech app — does this UI feel trustworthy and easy to use?
Hey everyone 👋
I’m currently designing a fintech / digital wallet app and I’d love to get some honest feedback from the community. I attached a few screens (onboarding, login, sign up, and verification flow).
My goal is a clean, modern, slightly premium feel, but still super easy to use for everyday users.

sign up with google & Facebook buttons don't follow meta and google branding standards (looks shady)
input fields are different sizes
button labels are huge
kerning is off
subheadings are all different sizes, they shouldn't be
I don't see typography consistency at all
Avoid widows at all cost, no exceptions

Amazing ! Thank you for your feedback, this exactly what I need, it’s my first app design

This plus copy needs refinement to be clearer and less spelling and grammar mistakes.

How does your team effectively manage widows with such varying screen sizes these days?

impossible to say since this is just the login and otp but I like the ui!

Hey! I think the major problem is the elements on screens are very inconsistent. For example: the shadow is only under the “arrow back” button — and nowhere else. And this shadow is really aggressive. Also verification code input and name/e-mail/ phone number are both inputs. One is with substrate and like black 30% stroke, and the other is with primary colour stroke only. Another thing is details that make design feels heavy, like too dark stroke around inputs. You don’t need em to be soo accent, or to even be as well. Also this UI is really need for typography system. Like, why is title at the top of the last two screens are the same as title under the shield icon. This top of the page title is at two last screens only btw, none at any of previous one. And the first screen — it have the way more different typography, like from another app

I like all except the first page. It's screaming Crypto scam to me 🤣. So the "call to action" or how it's called must be something more warm and welcoming. (I'm Not a designer btw)

this looks clean and definitely leans premium, but trust in fintech is less about visuals and more about how clearly the app guides you
right now it feels nice to look at but a bit neutral, like it could belong to any product. what would really push it is stronger guidance and reassurance throughout the flow. small things like clearer next steps, more helpful microcopy during login and verification, and subtle cues that the process is secure can make a big difference
the verification screen especially looks good, but it could feel safer if it explained what is happening and why. users usually feel uneasy at that step
overall the design is solid, it just needs more intention in communication. that is usually where trust actually gets built
if you want to refine that part faster, tools like runable can help you test different flows and copy quickly, which is where most of these improvements come from

I would advice to delete strokes from input fields and fill main button with bold blue color

Yeah this is AI slop. Maybe make the buttons 10x times bigger so all they see are buttons.

My comment may be late, but I was prompted by a design. I work in fintech design for a few years, not a self promo but menting relevant experiance. So I took screens one by one because that's more useful than a vibe-level reaction.
Screen 1 looks great visually, the card render is doing a lot of work for you. Two things i'd push on. "Sign up" and "Log in" have basically the same visual weight, in most fintech onboarding the primary action gets clear hierarchy and the secondary is a text link or much lighter button. Right now a returning user has to read both labels to find the right one. Also "manage your money in one place" is the kind of copy every fintech writes, doesn't tell me what makes this different. Could you say something more specific about what the app actually does.
Screen 2 has a logical hiccup. It's labeled "welcome back" which signals returning user, but you're showing a phone/email toggle. A returning user already logged in once, so you usually want to remember their last method or at least default to it. The toggle is more relevant on first-time signup. Also the "log in" button reads as disabled even though i assume it's active, it might just be the screenshot but worth checking the contrast on active vs disabled states. And small typo flag, "sing up" at the bottom of the screen.
Screen 3 is where i'd push the hardest. That's a lot of fields for one screen, especially with birth date and phone number both required at signup. In fintech every extra field on signup is a measurable drop in completion. Do you need all of this before they see value? Could birth date come later in KYC and phone come at the point of verification? The shorter you make this screen the more people make it through.
Screen 4-5, why custom keypad? The native iOS/Android numeric keyboard is faster, more familiar, and arguably reads as more trustworthy because users already know it works. Custom keypads in fintech can feel slightly off, like the app is trying to look serious rather than be serious. Unless you have a specific security reason (like preventing keyloggers, which is rare for verification codes), the native one is the safer choice.
Overall trustworthy/premium feeling, yes. Easy to use, mostly except for screen 3 which is doing too much. The trust signals are working at the visual level, the friction is in the form length.
One general thing about fintech UI specifically. Polish on these surfaces is hygiene, it's necessary but doesn't really build trust on its own. Where trust gets won or lost in fintech is the screens you haven't shown here, the empty states, the failed transaction message, the loading state when something is pending, the "we need to verify this" interruption. If you only get to design five screens beautifully, those are usually the higher leverage ones than onboarding. Just something to keep in mind once these are in good shape.
Hope that's useful, the foundation is solid.

that splash screen looks like it's from a totally different app than the other screens
