Give me a moment to install it and see if it'll work for me.

Re: USAA app

After installing the app, and logging in to my account via my iPhone 6 Plus, I went to the Watch app and then select the USAA app to be installed on my Watch. After that, I initiated the app via my Watch and was greeted with the balance from my accounts. In other words, the app installed without a problem on my Watch.

Re: USAA app

USAA app is working ok on my watch too. I did have to set up Quick Logon on my iPhone first, since I wasn't using this feature.

Re: USAA app

Thanks for asking the question... getting my watch soon (I really really hope) and use my USAA app all day everyday. Glad to see it works on the watch so I can do quick balance checks throughout the day.

I know I'm a little late to the party but I found this thread whilst searching google. I too am a daily user of the USAA app and have had my watch since ~9am 4/24....

In my opinion, the app is flakey in its current state and even after a restart and getting the app to work, it may randomly stop working (usually getting staying on the loading screen).

I've played with it a lot and at this point I think it's just an annoying issue that will be worked out after the first live public iteration. I look forward to the future fixes for this and some other appa

You may be right in that whatever is causing some people to have issues will be fixed in a future update. Thankfully, however, not everyone is experiencing problems with the USAA app.

Re: USAA app

I've checked out the USAA app on my watch, and it doesn't really do anything but give me my credit card available balance. I suppose that might be useful for a quick check to see if my balance changed, but no details. So, I still need to use the iPhone app for anything else.

Here’s what I did to get the USAA app to work on my Apple Watch. Install the USAA app on both your iPhone and the Apple Watch. Then log in to the USAA app on your iPhone and click on your initials at the top-left of your screen (mine was ‘XX’ encircled by a solid white circle). It should take you to a list of menu options with one option that should allow you to select the app to work on your Watch. After I selected that, I was then able to open the app on my Watch and finally see account information from USAA.

Hope that helps you.

That post is almost five years old. Hopefully he’s figured it out by now.
