    I love the clean layouts and the large functionality available, makes it very convenient.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 724 ✭✭✭muckety


    Good layout - intuitive and clear.  Very useful app for banking on the go!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,166 ✭✭✭yeppydeppy


    So to enter the competition I have to already have an apple device and have a BOI account? hmmm I don't own any iProducts and I moved to Permanent TSB sometime ago for reasons to numerous to go into here...(I could also go off on one and libel myself).

    IOS only? That's a big chunk of the market to ignore.

    I also can't download it. But from teh mock up picks the interface looks clean and it's good to have something like that on teh go. Often I'll wnt to do a bank transaction some random place like tesco and apps like this are invaluable.

    Where does it say that it's iOS only?

    It's great little app. Nice and clear and simple to us. I'm on iOS but my misses in on Android - I'm sure you'll have the Android one out soon.

    Good job.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 849 ✭✭✭Connavar


    Being able to do transfers on it is great


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 247 ✭✭DUBLIN_person


    Just being able to keep tabs on your transactions and balance with ease on a daily basis is a huge bonus for me!

    "Tablet App for iPad"


    Also

    "You need iOS version 7.0.6 (iPad 2) / iOS version 7.1 (iPad Air and iPad Mini) or above to download the app."


    Somehow I don't think those are the ones that need the ipad mini.

    What a beautifully designed app!

    Well done B.O.I., it's clean and you have everything you need to know right from the front page, pretty user friendly too.

    Just hoping for an Android version now too! 

    Cheers!:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 605 ✭✭✭Lmao_Man


    Just tried it out there and I'm pretty impressed. Clean layout which makes it so easy to keep an eye on your transactions going in and out. Most banking related apps/sites are hard to navigate through but this makes it plain and simple - good work. 


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,566 ✭✭✭JTMan


    Easy to utilise the main features. 


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,258 ✭✭✭rameire


    i like the large clear layout of the app and the functionality of it, really good

    The function to personalise it for me and other family members is very convenient


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,731 ✭✭✭GreenWolfe


    Bill payment is pretty handy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 72 ✭✭SwimFin


    Bank of Ireland’s app feature of personalising the dashboard to customise an overview of my accounts is very user friendly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 360 ✭✭radia


    I like the look and feel - no fuss/clutter - and it'll be handy for banking on the go.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,358 ✭✭✭Into The Blue


    Being able to go through past statements on the larger screen is a lot easier than on the phone..

    Next up for the phone app should be to integrate it with nfc for pos payments.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    Nice clean and intuitive interface.
    Like how it handles multi users.

    Love the summary view of all my accounts.   Great looking app.   Well done BOI


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,616 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Looks better than AIB app. :)


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators Posts: 6,876 Mod ✭✭✭✭Sheep Shagger


    Downloaded it last week, is very easy to use, nice and clean and easy to work your way around.

    Bring on a Business Online version too :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 112 ✭✭Rainbow_Bright


    Easy to navigate , great for keeping track of savings and spendings and easily accessible contact details & forms.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,822 ✭✭✭SureYWouldntYa


    App is very responsive and I like it. I'd like it more if I had some money to look at though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 863 ✭✭✭goldenhoarde


    looks good but will be nice to get a version of this on Android ASAP as I can only go by the demo which shows a nice clean easy to use app.

    Don't have an Apple device so really need to in this to give a subjective review :)

    Hi all,

    Some great comments and feedback received so far.

    Keep them coming to be in with a chance to win an iPad Mini and remember, this competition doesn't close until October 17th.

    Best of luck everyone.
    Laura


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 465 ✭✭bada_bing


    Only have an android tablet but i looked at the demo and i would love to have an android version of it. I was impressed by the graphs feature that displays whether you are saving money each month and that would be very handy for me as it would encourage me to take a closer look at my finances and expenses each month! Or the free ipad mini would be a good thing too!!! :) 


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 593 ✭✭✭cavemeister


    Hmmm... A competition to win an iPad but only available to people who already have an iPad!  Thanks BOI for alienating potential new customers.

    Finally. The best feature is now I can stop trying to use the iPhone app on the ipad. Transfer are nice and simple on it. Colour coded transactions was a good idea. 
    Wish there was a function to add a few extra funds to my account. 
    Any chance of that? 


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 361 ✭✭litup


    I don't have an iPad (yet!) so can't download this yet either.  However I have tried the android phone app and had some problems, so hopefully this has some improvements.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 92 ✭✭Celtic3x


    nice design and user friendly. does all my banking needs in one place. 10 out of 10 


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,980 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    Fantastic, does everything with ease and is fairy user friendly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,467 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Like Tar I don't have an apple device on which to test it *nudge nudge*

    Looking at the feature list though the ability to setup future-dated payments looks very useful for ensuring the rent is paid on time!


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 15,822 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tabnabs


    Simple, elegant and clear. What every bank app should look and function like.

    I'd enter this competition to win an iPad because I'd love to have one, but unfortunately I'm ineligible to enter this competition to win an iPad because I don't already have an iPad or any other Apple device ... doh!  :D  Major marketing fail.

    In fairness the features do seem impressive.  And I'm sure the person who wins the iPad (and then sells it on, because they obviously already have one!) will agree.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 205 ✭✭LiamKK1982


    The layout is very easy on the eye, very intuitive & it's very easy to find what you're looking for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,930 ✭✭✭✭challengemaster


    I think multiple user accounts is one of the most useful features of the app


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 530 ✭✭✭bruce wayne


    the dashboard functionality is such a simple but clear way to get an overview of my accounts, also love the range of functionality available


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 100 ✭✭coolclogher


    The clear layout is brilliant

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,905 ✭✭✭grimm2005


    Very user friendly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 164 ✭✭livdmg


    Easy to use and handy for transfers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 164 ✭✭livdmg


    It's Just GREAT


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3 eThor


    The usability experience is top notch. Little features like removing the need to press the 'enter ' or 'tab' button after entering details into a field, the expand/collapse options and the dashboard view of savings and spendings are pretty impactful. Genuinely one of the better utility apps for iOS and iPad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,464 ✭✭✭RosieJoe


    The detailed Account view that allows you to track monthly spend is very helpful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,147 ✭✭✭Onecoolcookie


    Great layout and easy to pay bills!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 539 ✭✭✭iDann


    It's actually the best banking app I've seen. The interface is fluid and responsive. All the features have been very well though out with the customer in mind. Well done to the developers :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 562 ✭✭✭Kingkong


    Its a clean and useful layout.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 561 ✭✭✭Dazza


    Best feature is that it hasn't crashed so far :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,038 ✭✭✭ian87


     Far more content and a lot more user friendly than the mobile app.I like the way you can view spreadsheets and charts so easily. Makes online for the person with no laptop painless.
