Account Updates

Should the app on my iphone also poll my various accounts to update - like it does when I log in via my pc?

It seems like the iphone app is only pulling the current information from my pc when it was last updated and not actually polling the various accounts to get an update - I could be wrong on this as I've only used it a couple days now - but curious how the iphone app is suppose to work.

When I update via my home pc - it usually takes about 30 seconds to update the accounts - but on my iphone it seems to update in about 5 seconds - which makes me wonder.

Thanks.

Good point, Mike. I'd like to know the answer to this as well.

I noticed the same issue, but I noticed that if I check my iphone app, update, exit the app for a few minutes and then come back, it shows the update as "4 minutes ago" or something like that.

So I think it updates, it just may take a while.

Hope that helps..

I've found the opposite - I can't seem to force mint to update via the iphone app. I'm forced to use the web browser to sign in and trigger an update.

Any official word on this? If it's not supported now, when?

Agreed. The iphone app is useless at this point since I have to login to the the website from my browser, let it update, log out of the website, login to the iphone app and let it update. Far too many steps just to get the app to have the latest balances. Why would I use the iphone app if I am already logged into the website on my phone??
