Mint, the leading personal finance app
from Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU), is
now available on Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8. Mint links users to
more than 20,000 different bank, credit card, loan and investment
accounts, making it easy to view all of their financial statements in
one place and get a better understanding of where their money is going.
The new Mint apps for Windows and Windows Phone are free and available
for download in the Windows
Store for Windows 8.1 and the Windows
Phone Store for Windows Phone 8.
“I've used other personal finance apps but jumped at the chance to try
Mint on Windows Phone 8,” said Reed Wiedower, a beta tester and
Washington, D. C. based chief technology officer. "I’m impressed by
Mint’s intuitive design and how easy the app is to use. Having mobile
access to my financial accounts makes money management easy and
convenient.”
The Mint apps for Windows and Windows Phone provides users with live,
up-to-date information about their financial accounts, bill reminders
and personalized money advice right from their Start screen. Mint users
get a consolidated view of their money for convenient financial
decisions in the app and real-time-updates via Live Tiles on both the
Windows and Windows Phone platforms.
“More than 13 million users rely on Mint to help them save toward their
financial goals and guide them to a better financial future,” said Vince
Maniago, group product manager for Mint. “By expanding our mobile
personal finance offerings, we’re providing Windows and Windows Phone
users with a custom-built Mint experience that helps them take control
and manage their money anywhere, anytime.”
The Mint apps empower users to:
-
Monitor accounts anytime, anywhere. Up-to-date account
information is easily accessed on Windows Phones, tablets, laptops and
PCs.

“Apps come to life on Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone thanks to uniquely
personal features like Live Tiles,” said Todd Brix, general manager of

features to provide users access to great financial tools and resources
at home, work or on the go.”
