I was so glad to see that Paypal had a mobile interface, because I am on the go a lot and don't always sit in front of the PC.. so having the application for my Galaxy was great! (Many companies only have applications for Iphone.. Thanks Paypal!

The PayPal app was easy to use and although initially, I thought it was only for sending money, I later realized that I can do most PayPal transactions with it. I check my balance here before I use my card.

As noted by the other members, I have to also say that the mobile app is extremely convenient, when checking your Pay Pal balance.

The app is great and works fantastic on Droid2.  I have had some issues with Android tablets, but it is nice to have.  Could use a section that displays holds and panding transactions, but otherwise perfect.

The app is useful, however when I try to filter my history by dates, I cannot see my history for the last month. It has never worked for me, please fix it. Thanks.

I loved using the PayPal for Android App, but it wasn't without problems. While it was much easier than going to the browser version it created too many problems for my underpowered android.

 

Each time I started my phone Paypal would start without being told to and would take up a lot of ram while idle. Additionally (when I last tried it) it would not let you move the app to the SD card which means it took up a considerable amount of space on my phone's tiny internal storage.

 

What phone do I have: Cricket's Sanyo Zio. A good phone, but a weak android by mosts' standards.

 

Everything else about the app was stellar. I was really sad I had to uninstall it.

Was that I do a lot of payments to vendors using my PayPal account and I was able to transfer funds to a vendor while on my way on vacation camping in an area with little to no cell service..  The funds hit my paypal account later than I had hoped but I was able to make the transfer with my phone on my drive to the mountains.. Otherwise, I would have been late on my payment to my vendor had I not been able to complete the transaction with my smart phone.  So everyone was happy thanks to the paypal mobile app!

I love that I can check my balance on the go. I have my phone with me everywhere I go so as long as I have an internet connection, I can use my PayPal app without waiting to go home.

I use to think that the greatest app ever made was the Ebay App which now allows me to buy AND sell from my phone. But I was wrong, the paypal app, with it's new additions allows me to pay for my ebay items, send money to my kids who are in college all while floating at the pool at the Wynn in Las Vegas. Oh, I even paid for the trip using paypal 😉 .

 

Thanks Paypal!
