This is an app that connects directly to my BECU account and is recommended by BECU. It is the first financial software app that I've felt comfortable using on my iPhone primarily because it was recommended by my financial institution.
My Review
This app is only for people who an account with BECU, so it doesn't have a huge audience. But what it does is just fine.
I can only give it three stars because nearly every time I open it I am surprised. You see, the balances don't update automatically when you turn it on, you have to click a refresh button. So I go in and think "OH NO!" or "OH YAY" because my balances are different than I think they should be. Then I say "oh right, refresh" click the button and the balances return to what they should be.
I find it useful to use when I'm away from my computer but have my iPhone handy. Since you can do transfers over your iPhone I can keep my accounts up-to-date when I think about it, not just when I'm at my computer.
