We’re always working closely with others to build on new technologies and platforms to ensure that our Mint community has the best experience managing and understanding their finances. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce support for iOS 8 by bringing Touch ID technology to Mint.

Apple users now can more easily and securely authenticate access to the Mint app on-the-go from any device.

A person’s fingerprint is the perfect password. Touch ID adds another great layer of mobile security to Mint’s 128-bit encryption and physical security that banks use.

With just a touch of the Home button on your iOS 8 enabled device, the Touch ID sensor quickly reads your fingerprint and automatically unlocks your phone, or in this case, access to the Mint app.

While users will still have the option to log-in using their passcode, Touch ID provides the ability to quickly and securely access financial information with a single touch.

Try Mint with the new iOS 8 and Touch ID now at the App Store.

Mint is passionate about helping you to achieve financial goals through education and with powerful tools, personalized insights, and much more. More from Mint
