Review of JP Morgan Chase iPhone App
In: Top iPhone Apps
20 Aug 2009In the desert of 30,000 apps, JP Morgan Chase app is almost an oasis.
It’s beautiful looking icon, simple & blue interface and quick download time nothing but calm your nerves. The first screen has log on, contact us and find ATM branch features.
| The app lets you log into your bank account and lets you transfer or wire money. Although, the first screen gives a very classy impressing, the app loses its visual appeal the minute it logs you into your account. The first screen after you log in shows all your accounts, available balance, and allows you to access bill pay, transfer money, wire transfer features (which is a big deal when it comes to accessing bank accounts through your iPhone) ON A WHITE BACKGROUND;- very bland, and in a way it makes you lose your focus. A blue screen would have made a good visual transition. Remember that when it comes to designing and iPhone app- colors matter a lot! When you click on any of the accounts, it shows last 5 transaction done through their accounts (10 would have been better since it would give customers a better view of their recent spending summary, but let’s not get too greedy.) The only down part of this app is that it doesn’t let you transfer money to external linked accounts, which implies that you can’t send money to any accounts other than yours (even if it’s a chase account); although, you can “wire” money through this app, which will cost you 12 bucks extra (but why should you want to do that?). Chase should definitely consider adding this feature. Other than that, the app is great and we were fairly impressed with it. |
