    Just make sure you follow a bookmark/shortcut to access any financial web site you use regularly.  Never click a link in a mail or text even if it looks like it came from the bank.
    The web sites for most banks work really well on a phone, so there's no need for a dedicated app is many cases.  In IOS and Android, you can create a desktop shortcut to web sites, and often these look identical the app in any case!

    Marcus is a savings account, and there is a thread about their app  on the Savings and Investments board.

    Another good piece of advice is to only download banking apps from the official app stores, i.e. Google Play store on Android or the App Store on iPhone. It's a big risk downloading apps from outside these app stores.

    I'm guessing you've got debts that are costing you a lot more than 0.4% in interest. Pay them before attempting to save.
    I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.
