Major Highlights of the Week

Every time I try to log in, I have to reset my password, and even then, it often doesn't accept the new one.
Incompatible Updates
Recent app updates have rendered the app incompatible with many users' devices, particularly Android phones, leaving them unable to access their accounts or order medications. This has caused significant frustration as users are forced to switch to less convenient methods like phone calls.
The app update says it's not compatible with my phone anymore, so I can't use it to order my meds.

Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

The app is now finally starting to get a little better, but if Optum uses the United States Postal Service for any more of my deliveries I’m dropping this service like a bad habit! EVERY order so far this year has been days/week late, lost, miss routed, etc… and Optum acts like it’s my problem to have to deal with by telling me to try and contact my doctor on a weekend or beg a local pharmacy to fill emergency supply with no prescription.

Love the new design aesthetically, feels much more streamlined with the exception of the home screen which is still kind of a hodgepodge. Unfortunately the engineering behind it is buggy and slow. It now takes 3-4 seconds to even load the list of prescriptions and at one point I was unable to scroll up and down the list of prescriptions because the scroll bar became locked.

The app has been down for over a month, it sends you to the web portal and asks you to login. You log in and it says you’re already a member please log in. Tech support is no help. Then you have to refills on the land line, this is the kind of crappie service you expect from United Healthcare.
