Citi redesigns mobile banking app

Citi has launched a redesigned version of its Citi Mobile app for iPhone and Android devices.

Citi said it has added new features, a cleaner, sleeker design, and alerts on-the-go to make it easier for its U.S. banking and credit card customers to check balances, transfer money and make deposits and payments. Over time, the new Citi Mobile app will go live to Citi customers around the world, the bank said.

The U.S. launch includes a limited beta test of Citi Mobile Snapshot, an opt-in feature that enables customers to check deposit and credit card balances and recent transactions without having to log into their accounts. Citi said it is the first major U.S. bank to offer the feature, which is expected to be rolled out to all U.S. customers later this year.

Citi said the new Citi Mobile app moves away from a sequential navigation and features a fluid single-screen layout that makes navigation by the touch of a finger easier, faster and more intuitive. The redesigned app offers simplified menus for payments and transfers, with faster access to popular banking functions such as the Popmoney P2P payment service, which enables users to pay other people from their Citibank account, and Mobile Check Deposit. By simply clicking an icon, a menu now opens all of the potential payments and transfer tasks users may need to complete, Citi said.

Citi Mobile customers can now receive account-specific alerts-on-the-go about the status and activity of their deposit and credit card accounts, such as when a check has cleared, a balance has fallen below a set threshold or a payment is due.
