Playing with the mobile app

The iOS app and Android app have the same scenario, UI and even core code, so you would get similar experiences with the two mobile apps. To save the duplicate words, we are going to use iOS as an example in this section, to guide you through the procedure. The app might perform a little worse on the Android simulator, because of the bad performance of Android simulator, but the business scenario is exactly the same.

Once the iOS simulator/device is turned on, the BTT Mobile Banking Sample App will start up as well, then connect to the internet web app, establish a session, and show the login view. You need to input the username, password and captcha code to login. As this is a sample, we are not verifying the password, you can simply input the default username “user01” with any password consist of more than 6 characters, and the correct captcha code to proceed.

Once you login successfully, you will see the welcome view, in which there is a Special Offers section showing some offering images which can be flicked horizontally, a Messages section showing some fake messages, a Shortcuts section showing fake shortcuts, and a button to proceed to main menu.

Clicking the Main Menu button, you will enter the main menu, this menu will display different layouts based on your device screen size. For iPAD, it will split the screen into two parts, quick navigation on the left and function area on the right.

If you click on the first Fund menu, the right frame will show all fund related functions, such as Accounts Summary, Holding List, Funds List, Interested List, Automatic Investment Plan and Recommended Offers. But Automatic Investment Plan and Recommended Offers are not implemented in this sample.

In Accounts Summary, it will list your existing accounts, and it will show the holding funds under each account. The fund entry can be clicked to see more details. Please note, redeem function is not implemented in this sample.

In Holding List view, you can check all your holding funds instantly.

In Funds List view, you can see all available funds, and you can quickly find some fund by typing its code or name into the query box at the top of the view. Please note, the query is case sensitive. Once you find a desired fund, you can click the Follow button to add it to your interested list or Purchase button to buy it.

In Interested Funds view, you can check all funds in which you are interested and quickly filter the funds by top search box, case sensitive as well. You can proceed to purchase for selected fund. Please note, removing a fund out of interested list is not implemented in this sample.
