New E*TRADE Update Includes Touch ID and Home Screen Widget for iOS 8

In an effort to increase security, the E*TRADE stocks management app has integrated Touch ID fingerprint authentication. With a touch of a finger you can ensure that your private financial information stays private. The app now also offers a home screen widget in iOS 8, containing market and watch list information and making it super easy to check up on how your investments are doing.

"Investors want secure access to their investments and trades, anytime, anyplace,” said Navtej S. Nandra, President of E*TRADE Financial, “By keeping our technology fresh, we ensure that we keep pace with our customers – being where they want us to be.”
