We are excited to announce the launch of Fill It Mobile at Google Play, with the iOS app soon to follow.
As you’ll recall, we launched the Fill It web extension earlier this summer for Chrome, Safari, Firefox and IE, which can automatically complete any Web form in what is now the world’s largest index of one-click forms — 225,000 and growing.
Today, Fill It goes mobile, allowing secure, 1-touch autofill experiences for Fill It enabled mobile apps and sites. Here’s our press release on the announcement: https://www.personal.com/s/pages/news/personal-launches-fill-it-mobile/
Fill It Mobile addresses two of the biggest areas of friction for users in mobile apps and transactions – the difficulty of completing forms on mobile devices and reusing our data across apps. It aligns perfectly with our mission to make individuals the hub or all of their own data, and solves an enormous challenge for companies and apps.
Fill It Mobile supports over 1,200 different types of data and can work on most any form, including:
- • registrations and account creation
- • payments of all types (including ACH and wire transfers)
- • credit card, banking and insurance applications
- • job applications and HR
- • real estate and mortgage
- • medical and health insurance
- • government and school
- • travel and events; and
- • shopping and loyalty and rewards sign ups
When you see an app or company form that is enabled for Fill It Mobile, just click a button to complete and submit it (after reviewing it, of course). You’ll be able to use the data from your Data Vault to populate it and, if you’ve had to add new information to complete it, you’ll be able to save it to your Data Vault for future re-use.
Forms can also be launched and completed using QR codes. And when a paper or PDF form is still required, just print or share a PDF version of the completed form via email. You can even sign it with an e-signature app. (More on that later).
To complement the release of Fill It Mobile, we’re also releasing updates to our Data Vault apps to iTunes and Google Play, which are designed to interact seamlessly with Fill It Mobile. So now you have two reasons to go to Google Play and, soon, iTunes.
Try out Fill It Mobile and let us know what you think.
