I have made this review 3 out of 5.

I have made this review 3 out of 5.

I kept getting a screen that indicates that the app had been closed but it obviously hadn’t been closed. I discovered that to close the screen I had to swipe from the bottom of the screen upwards to the top of the screen. The message below allows me tap the message to open. There is no message which explains how to close the app.
I now know how to close an app by swiping upwards. I had to ring your help desk to discover this. Your support staff member told me what to do.
A sentence on the bottom of the screen would have saved me having to ring Atom Bank and save Atom Bank support staff having to answer my question. People who already know how to close the app don’t need help, but people who don’t know would be grateful for a short sentence saying “Swipe up to close the App.” at the bottom of the screen. That would save Atom Bank money.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback regarding the app's functionality. We understand how frustrating it can be to encounter unexpected behavior and the need to contact support for a solution. Your suggestion about adding an on-screen prompt for closing the app is valuable, and we will certainly consider this as we continuously work to improve our user experience. We are always looking for ways to make our app more intuitive for everyone.
