PayPal removed the ability to pay invoices from the app... for some reason? I can now no longer use PayPal for the primary reason I had it in the first place. There's no section in the app to pay or view invoices anymore, and links on my invoice just take me to the home page. App is basically useless to me now Oh and that's not to mention that more of the app is taken up by huge advertisement and loan offers than actual functionality. Basically turned into bloatware

Quick and easy payment sent digitally to a friend. So convenient and so quick! And without a fee which was really nice!!! *Edit* I still love PayPal since making my last review. I enjoy sending money to my friends quickly and without fees. The world we live in never comes without fees! Relish this time and this app! 😄 Who knows how long it will stay this way!

app doesn't work anymore. if you try to go to credit, it reloads for about 5 minutes and then says unavailable. this has been going on for weeks. According to PayPal, somehow their app is a bank issue and nothing to do with them. synchrony bank rightfully blames PayPal. seems like both sides know it's a problem but no one has a solution so until it's fixed I don't recommend using PayPal at all. you can't view or pay for your transactions right now.
