The fact that it's gift cards now is pretty rubbish, but that is not why it's getting 1 star from me. I still use it for a specific gift card. the 1 star is because the app is literally unusable. It either completely crashes on opening, or it hangs on a black screen that I can't get out of without killing the app completely. Reinstalling makes it work once and then not a second time. Once the enhanced rate is gone on my gift card of choice, I'll be deleting this.

good when it works. crashes to black screen on opening after entering PIN. cannot access the app. pixel 9 pro xl a few days later: deleted all app data and reinstalled it and it worked. Then I got a call from Cheddar to see if all was working, which surprised me. great support, thank you.

generally a good app and a nice way to save a bit of money. unfortunately, the last week or so it's started crashing so much it's difficult to use. I uninstalled and reinstalled and that seemed to help briefly but generally it crashes every time I log in.
