Review of SplashMoney App for BlackBerry

SplashMoney is a very capable BlackBerry app that could manage all your financial transactions in a professional yet simple manner, at the same time offering more features than most similar applications. For example, SplashMoney apps for BlackBerry comes complete with a corresponding desktop version that can be synchronized with their BlackBerries, so that users can always have an identical and updated copy of the records in their PCs as well. Secondly, using SplashMoney, one could directly access and reconcile bank accounts, provided the bank accounts are compatible with Direct Connect internet technology. Fortunately, these days, most banks are Direct Connect internet technology enabled.

Security

In SplashMoney, every bit of user information is protected using password and Blowfish encryption that uses a 64-bit fixed block size and a variable key length of 32 – 448 bits. As of today, no hackers have successfully managed to break into this protection net.

Utilities

SplashMoney apps for BlackBerry lets users create their own accounts, even though the software comes preset with couple of accounts, which users can choose to continue or they can simply delete it. Creating an account is simple: just hit ‘menu’ and the options to do so will be presented in a drop down menu, which also features options to edit, delete, manage, log view, go to transactions etc. Using ‘manage’, users could add new payees, categories, currencies, classes, transactions types and scheduled transactions. Further, there are options to transfer money between different types of accounts, make/view reports and budgets for book keeping, and even create an account that could access and download information from the respective banks. However, this feature is subjected to pre-approval, and not all banks provide that at the moment (Citibank, Bank of America etc does not support it).

Final Say

SplashMoney is definitely an indispensable BlackBerry application, especially for those who have lots of finance/transactions to do everyday in their personal as well as professional domains. SplashMoney app for BlackBerry gives the users the much needed mobility, freedom, security, and ease of use, when it comes to managing their finances on a daily basis. Some of its features such as the ability to access and reconcile bank accounts online, synchronize with PC, and view reports as pie charts, you may not get to see the same in most other mobile financial applications. Overall, SplashMoney is definitely one of the trusted apps amongst BlackBerry users worldwide.

Etrade Mobile Pro for the BlackBerry

ETRADE Mobile Pro for the BlackBerry

Summary

ETRADE Mobile Pro app has become one of the most popular trading platforms in the modern financial world. Even offline stock brokers are now using it for various purposes and that has allowed its popularity (and its net worth, incidentally enough) to shoot through the roof like never before. Now, this top notch trading software can come directly to your BlackBerry through the use of a handy app that has been developed along those lines.

User Interaction

The great thing about interacting with the E*TRADE Mobile Pro app for the BlackBerry is that it really is not that different from interacting with the normal application as it would exist on your desktop or laptop computer. Indeed, so many people are happy with that particular software package that one has to tip their cap to the BlackBerry app developers for making sure that they kept the essence of what makes this software program great when they were transferring it over to the BlackBerry system. This certainly gets them more points with us because while we do enjoy innovation, we also appreciate it when programmers have the savvy to leave things that are working fine alone.

User Interface

The interface that E*TRADE Mobile Pro has online is one of the simplest interfaces imaginable that is at the same time also very effective. You get the most value for the complexity from the E*TRADE interface as you can quite literally do any financial transaction in any market with a few clicks of the mouse. Since you don’t have a mouse when you are using a BlackBerry however, you will instead either be using your pointer or the keys on the handheld in order to achieve the same effect. The interface had to be condensed slightly in order to accommodate the much smaller BlackBerry screen, but at the end of the day the same functionality that made people fall in love with the E*TRADE software has been duplicated masterfully on this BlackBerry application.

Utility and Productivity

Productivity on this particular app is through the roof. The more of a trader you are, the more productive you can be with this software. Essentially, the E*TRADE app for the BlackBerry will allow you to execute all of your trades and track all of your investments from your handheld device. That in turn means that you can do it from anywhere you have a Wi-Fi connection. These days, that is basically most downtown urban cores. If you work at one, you can do your trades over your lunch break while eating and really cut down on the amount of time both of those activities would otherwise take.

Rating

If it isn’t obvious by now, we absolutely love the E*TRADE app for the BlackBerry. There are so many more reasons as to why this software is definitely worth a download for anyone that is big into investing, but in the interests of brevity we believe the above strong points should illustrate the point sufficiently. To top it all off, we will assign E*TRADE Mobile Pro app for the BlackBerry our second highest possible rating at 9.5 out of 10.
