Because your new User ID and password are different than what your Touch ID has registered, you are required to update your login information for Touch ID within the Mobile Banking App. Go to the menu, select Settings, and press Touch ID. You will need to delete the current user ID and password saved and enter your new information.

To enable your Quick Access links, go to the Right View menu Mobile Banking Right Menu under Settings and make sure 'Show Quick Links' is selected.

To disable orientation lock, go to the Right View menu Mobile Banking Right Menu under Settings and make sure 'Lock Portrait View' is not selected. If 'Lock Portrait View' was not enabled on the app, you will need to check the orientation settings on your device.

Our Mobile Banking App provides information in real-time, and enhanced security features prevent sensitive account information from being stored on your device. Because of these benefits, there may be a slight delay in displaying your information.
