Version 2.0 also allows users who weren't using online banking to enroll directly from the app.
"We're using technology to create banking solutions that are simple and convenient," said Alex Carriles, executive vice president and director of Mobile Strategy and Retail Innovation at BBVA Compass. "The new app gives users a fast and easy way to manage their BBVA Compass accounts in a visually enhanced setting. It brings the user experience to a whole new level."
The Android app was upgraded to respond to customer feedback and also to incorporate more innovative technology. As part of BBVA Compass' strategy to align the functionality and the look-and-feel of all of their mobile apps, its graphical design is consistent with the iPhone 2.0 mobile banking app that was released in March.
"Mobile banking is growing and evolving at a rapid pace," Carriles said. "Because this new app is based on an exclusive in-house development, we will be able to add more features, more frequently. There are many things that our customers would like to see in our apps, and we have heard them loud and clear, and nearly every feature they have requested, and more, will be added to our apps throughout this year."
BBVA Compass first released its Android app in 2010, allowing customers to retrieve balances, review transactions, transfer funds and locate branches. Over the last two years, the bank's Mobile Strategies team has launched native apps for iPhone, BlackBerry, Android, iPad and PlayBook.
To download the free BBVA Compass Android mobile banking app, visit Google Play and search for BBVA Compass, or text the word android to 4BBVA (42282).
