Chase does not like Android

**bluediablito** · 08-30-2010, 01:14 AM

so here i am at work, and the topic comes up "my iphone is better than your evo because of_______"
long story short. in my work we have 8 people iphone user and android user. we were going down the list and android can kick some but, until i notice.....
all 8 of us have chase as our direct deposit and there is a nice app for the iphone that allows you to take a picture of your check and they will deposite it for you. i looked in the app store and there is nothing officially made by chase for the android.....

has any one found anything made by chase on the app store, and how can we get the same app as the iphone.

If you have direct deposit then why would you need to cash your check?

Did I miss something? Sorry.

Doesnt make sense. Might be why its not available for android, sounds pointless.

I'm guessing that he means other checks that aren't directly deposited would be able to be scanned and deposited in this manner. But I don't think that it is proof that Chase hates Android lol. it may just be a matter of time before Android gets something like it that. That ability for the iphone is something new. Before it was just a regular application to see your accounts.

I have not found any would like one for them and a few other banks I deal with.

I emailed Chase sometime in May about an Android app, and they replied that they were working on releasing it soon, how long that will be is anybodys guess.

I remember seeing a leaked version screenshot on phandroid earlier this month. Shouldn't be too much longer. No idea what it will be able to let you do through the app. I'm not to worried about it as I don't use Chase for my banking.

I'm hoping for this app

It'll come, just like Wells Fargo came around for Android. Just a matter of time.

I think they probably develop for iPhone first (since it's still the largest market). And then if that's successful, they continue to other platforms, starting with Android/Blackberry.

thing is, chase sucks. i'd find a new bank, or even better, a credit union.

**** chase and all them big banks

**DougB541#CB** · 08-30-2010, 08:49 AM

TD bank has an app. So does the USSA or whatever government bank.

this...closed all accounts with them when they decided to up my interest rate on my cards for no reason at all...we have a high credit limit and we always pay ahead of time...never late or miss a payment and yet they up the rate out of no where...and they upper it a huge amount...never looking back at them again

**kamtsa** · 08-30-2010, 10:00 AM

We bail them out with billions of dollars and they don't even bother writing an Android app? The feds should take over and make it right.

;-)

**gnehc** · 08-30-2010, 10:05 AM

Oh Yeah!! Iphone is better cause it has Chase app. That's it I'm getting a Iphone. NOT.

**Seven2k** · 08-30-2010, 12:05 PM

im all about new tech...but check deposit through your phone...no thanks ill do it old school. Specially with the new hacks that come out almost every month on iphone.

Credit Unions FTW!!

**AZwldcats** · 08-30-2010, 12:06 PM

USAA>CHASE!

correction, since it USED to be the largest market.

I have Chase because I ended up there after a long line of other banks getting merged or swallowed. I don't pay any fees so I cost them money. They did jack up my credit card rate so I paid it off as well as my mortgage but of course now I'm stuck with BofA handling my mortgage. I'm sure Chase will try to get me off their credit card too as I'm now paying it off every month and getting a rebate through Amazon. I also have a credit union account but I don't see them writing any apps for phones. It's getting to the point where I could eliminate the regular bank but not yet.

**apexi350z** · 08-30-2010, 01:40 PM

This is the only reason I hold on to my iPhone 2G, since you can still use the Chase app and connect via WiFi to deposit the check.

I carry an EVO as primary phone

**splmonster** · 08-30-2010, 03:17 PM

I love Chase, don't know why everyone hates on them. Best bank I have ever used, and it's just about everywhere. I have used Credit Unions and other banks and they all blew hard.

**gotthelife4u** · 08-30-2010, 03:25 PM

I use Wells Fargo after many years with BofA. I would love to see an app from Wells like the Chase one. I do have to add I love my Credit Union that carries my mortgage, but there are only two branches in my city so they are not that convenient for everyday banking IMO.

No, it still is. The number of apps sold through App Store is far, far greater.

**dwaynewilliams#WN** · 08-30-2010, 04:19 PM

The only thing is that the Chase app has been on the iPhone for over a year now.

But have they had the check depositing function all that time? I think that's what most people want. I can already do everything else I need with them through text messaging.
