CIBC Mobile Banking Updated with Touch ID, iPhone 6 Support
After promising back in December Touch ID and iPhone 6 support was coming soon, the features have finally arrived for CIBC Mobile Banking iOS users, with version 7.0 released today.
The new version has been updated to support Retina displays on the iPhone 6 and newer, while Touch ID allows for seamless sign-ons without the need to enter your password.
Below on the left is a screenshot of the old version of CIBC Mobile Banking—on the right is the new version:
You can now also view images of cheques you’ve written, download eStatements and access details from your mutual funds, mortgages and loans, while also setup recurring bill payments, transfers and more.

January 18, 2015
You asked, and we listened. Check out the app’s sharp new design, tailored to the iPhone6 and above, plus, improved features and some new ones you’ll love, including Touch ID.Now you can easily access details on your deposit accounts, mutual funds, mortgages and loans. You can also view eStatements and cheque images, set up recurring bill payments and transfers, and receive and manage INTERAC e-Transfers.
Canadian banking users are still waiting for RBC and TD to update their iOS apps with Touch ID, like BMO and Scotiabank have already.

Man, glad I’m not with CIBC. What’s their excuse for being so goddamned slow?
I think there was a report early last year about how much all Canadians fear technology. Would that make Apple the boogieman I don’t know.
It could be worse, you could be with RBC. Still no sign of TouchID there!
“You asked, we listened” except that part about how everyone wants Apple Pay.
No no no. What you really want is Interac money transfers and to prove it we’ll wave that transaction fee of $1.50 and we’ll even give you unlimited transfers per month now.
Much better right?
This is good news as I use CIBC. AMEX has had this for a while, in addition to Apple Pay, so CIBC are still catching up.
Anyway, for MasterCard purchases, it’s handy. But yes, we can all agree, Apple Pay is where CIBC need to be.
Finally…if it took the bank this long just to add Touch ID, what’s their capacity to roll out their own version of eWallet!..now if CIBC can fix their Business Banking app…
Hopefully this means an update to President’s Choice too is coming shortly.
President’s Choice Financial has recently been revamping their banking machines and website and they now match CIBC. I hope this means’ their pitiful app (which doesn’t work for me) will be updated using CIBC’s new app. Their website says a new app is coming soon.
Td: no Touch ID, no Apple Pay, 4″ screen layout. :-/
Totally agree with you Anthony. They’re a bunch of dinosaurs that need to be replaced. Let’s hope it doesn’t take them another year and a half to support Apple Pay.
Gary, PC Financial has the updated app too now. They are nearly identical.
Thanks. Posted a couple mins ago 🙂
I have to say it’s pretty neat to accept an e-Transfer via the app..click on e-transfer email, prompts you to open the CIBC apps, Touch ID to login, type in the answer, transfer done.
