At the same time, it prevents someone from accessing the app if your phone is left unlocked. You can change your passcode by selecting More in the bottom toolbar or by selecting "Forgot passcode?" after you open the Mobile app.

If Mobile Deposit takes an unusually long time to capture your check, verify that the check is on a dark surface in bright light. Adjust your device’s distance from the check to fill the camera frame.

Confirm the dollars-and-cents amount that is on the check face (Mobile Deposit inserts the decimal). Submit and confirm your deposit.

Before taking the photo, endorse the check and write the phrase, “For Mobile Deposit Only” on the back of your check.

Mobile Deposit works with Android and iPhone mobile devices. Older iPhones and devices without cameras are not supported. Your device’s camera must have auto-focus (not fixed focus).
