Chase also has talking ATMs at evry location. the talking ATM's can read a deposit amount on a check, even if it is handwritten. No envelope is needed and no deposit slip is required to deposit a check at a Chase ATM. It is now not necessary to keep track of the amount of the check because the talking ATM scans the check and can identify the amount. I believe the iPhone app has a limit of $2,500 in deposits on any single day and about $5,000 in any 30 day period. Talking ATM's have no deposit limits.

In order to use the Chase app, you need to go to the mainline web site to enable this.

Re: Online banking and iOS app support
Those are very real concerns. What I do is use a different password for the Chase app than I use with other apps. Also, an added bonus with the Chase app, if there are two minutes of no activity the user is automatically logged out. Hopefully with the iPhone 5S and 6/+ and newer phones and devices, the touch ID will also help to keep your banking secure, since you're the only person with your fingerprint.

RE: Online banking and iOS app support
Well, It was a good while ago when I set this up, so my failing mind cannot remember the steps. I suggest you download the app and just try it. It will doubtless ask you for a variety of information to validate your identity, to ensure that what you write matches what is on file. There is also a department for assisting with online access, and in my experience they do try to assist, so there is nothing to lose by trying the app and following the prompts. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Eden Kizer Sent: Monday, December 01, 2014 1:50 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Online banking and iOS app support This Chase ap, how do I get an online account with them to do this, I mean all I know is my account number as I've never used online banking.

Re: Online banking and iOS app support
Hi. I've been using the Chase mobile app for over three years now and haven't had any trouble with it at all. In addition to the usual stuff like checking balances, paying bills online and transferring funds from one account to another, it will let you scan and deposit checks. Since I'm total I've always been a little leery of trying that option out myself, but as I think about it now, I wonder if it might be feasible at some time in the future to scan a check using an app like TextGrabber or KNFB Reader, save the check image, then import it into a banking app, as opposed to using the native scanning function in the banking app itself. I wouldn't want to run into hassles with scanning a check and attempting a deposit without enough feedback to indicate that I took a good shot of the check.

Re: Online banking and iOS app support
I've used several banks which give you the ability to scan checks. I haven't seen one which lets you import the checks. I have also not had good luck with scanning myself. I have not tried using the scan stand though. I find the apps are very finicky with this feature. They have to be able to recognize the info on the checks. Two that I have tried are Chase and Huntington with the same results. I know this doesn't answer the original question but it goes with some of the other discussion.

RE: Online banking and iOS app support
This is why I specifically mentioned the ability for depositing checks. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of John Diakogeorgiou Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2014 5:36 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Online banking and iOS app support I don't have any experience with either of these banks or online bank apps. However, one thing I would suggest is that the app be able to make deposits by taking picutres of a check. Even though you may think you don't need it now it would be a potentially great feature if you don't have access to a physical bank.

RE: Online banking and iOS app support
Yes, I’m familiar with these traditional banks and their apps. One thing to keep in mind with USBank is that they charge you 50 cents for each check you deposit mobiley. I just find the nickel and diming the brick and mortar banks to be off-putting. Off hand, I don’t recall the last time I had to physically go into a bank about an issue. This is why my interest in an online bank alternative. They’re all going to more or less do the same thing. I was just curious as to the iOS accessibility with their apps since they’re not going to be as big as the more well-known banks.

Re: Online banking and iOS app support
For what it's worth you can always download the banks app and play with it even though you don't have an account. It won't tell you all but will help a bit.
