The advantages of this application are a very convenient interface, the possibility of tracking your finances in an online mode. Most actions with this bank can be performed directly from your smartphone.
Mobile application of Uralsib Bank
However, according to the analysts of the industry, only the Tinkoff Bank loses the mobile application of this financial organization. Using this mobile application, you can make ruble transfers between your own cards, to cards of other persons and pay loans.
In the upper right corner is a button to withdraw information about the bank. With its help, you can find out contact details for communication with the employees of this credit institution.
Below you can find the address of the nearest ATM. If you click on the ATM panel located nearby, you can find their addresses, with the instructions of the metro stations and distances.
There is a button with the withdrawal of cards from the corresponding Yandex service, where you can clearly find the location of ATMs in your city. If the application indicated the number of banknotes at ATMs, then the Uralsib mobile bank would take first place in our ranking.
If you are interested in the dollar and euros, then the panel with them is located just below. And in the lowest part of the screen you can find a menu with buttons to the main page, news page, office addresses, etc.
After loading the application and the user identification procedure, an informative initial screen will open before him. Where the account and card are displayed.
By clicking on the corresponding section, you can activate the product management page. For cards, you can find out the term of their validity, the amount of available funds, the repayment period and the amount of the loan, etc.
Directly from the application you can transfer funds to other cards. To do this, you need to go to the appropriate section. Here you can make transfers not only between your accounts and cards, but also transfer funds to ruble accounts to other individuals, pay taxes and fees.
To choose a bank where to transfer funds in this application, it is enough to start to type its name or BIC. The disadvantage can be called that when translating between customers Uralsib, you cannot find a user by phone number. We have to spend a lot of time filling out details.
If you go to the “Payments” section, then you can find the right organization in the list and quickly pay the bill. It is enough to choose it, drive the right amount and, after confirming the code from the SMS, the funds will leave. The history of payments can be found in the corresponding section.
From the above it follows that the application interface is quite convenient. Its main advantage is that the main and other screens are not overloaded with buttons. The color, traditional blue-white gamut, traditional for this bank, does not load the eyes. And in general, the application interface works well even with a slow mobile Internet.
Sberbank mobile application
It is not surprising that the application of this bank took third place in our ranking. With its help, you can transfer funds between your cards, pay for mobile communications and loans, as well as make payments to online stores and various organizations.
With the help of the Sberbank on the map, you can find the closest offices, ATMs and terminals of this bank. They are displayed in two types. On the map and list, in which they are located as it is removed.
To calculate the geopolitic, the navigation sensor built into the smartphone is used. By clicking on the corresponding point, you can get all the necessary data about it: working time, point type, etc.
In the section "Social Networks" you can find links to the official communities "Sberbank" in VKontakte, Twitter and Facebook. Using a mobile application for Android, you can pay for an account of a mobile phone without authentication using a PIN code.
After you go through this procedure, your cards and accounts will be loaded on the main screen of the application. In the "My Payments" section, you can familiarize yourself with the US dollars and euros, as well as prices for precious metals.
The interface of this application cannot boast of the speed. Moreover, with a slow Internet, it is impossible to carry out not only management of your finances, but also to enter the application. The disadvantage of security can also be considered that many actions within this application can be controlled without secondary authentication.
In terms of functionality, this application is not only no better than two of the above, but also suffers from some shortcomings. In general, the interface of the Sberbank mobile bank is simple and understandable, but its slow work, as well as some security shortcomings, leave a bad precipitate.
Mobile application "Promsvyazbank"
Using PSB-Mobile, you can find out the state of your account, make transfers by card, make payments by templates, etc.
Even before the authentication procedure, the user available sections: “Departments”, “ATMs”, “Discounts”. Immediately you can display a side panel with dollar, euros, news and contacts of the bank onto the screen.
Using the search line, you can find the necessary function or news of this financial organization. On the map of ATMs, you can activate the construction of the route to the nearest.

And that is not all. After introducing the password, you need to enter the code from the SMS sent to the “attached” smartphone.
After loading the main interface, an application screen will appear, divided into four parts: “accounts”, “deposits”, “cards” and “loans”. Everything seems comfortable? But it was not there. Only the “Card” section works, when the other three sections are activated, the application redirects you to the bank’s website.
In the “Cards” section, you can find out the balance of cards, replenish them from other accounts, see the history of transactions and block the card if necessary.
To output the list of popular functions to the screen, you need to click on the arrow button. With the help of a traveling panel, you can pay for a mobile connection, an account with popular Internet providers and transfer by phone number. You can also call the side panel to the screen, with a list of other functions of this application.
The application itself generates templates from frequently used payments. They can be found in the corresponding section. But, you can’t add your templates. You can only rename already used. Which of course is a big drawback of this application.
In the "Payments" section, you can find an organization for which you need to make a payment. The list is quite large, so all the most popular companies are present in it. In the section "Translations", it is possible to transfer funds to another client of Promsvyazbank. To do this, you can use not only the card number, but also the phone number.
Right in the application you can exchange currency, or you can transfer the ruble amount to the currency account of another bank with automatic converting.
Of the shortcomings, it is necessary to note the inability to open an account or the ability to make a contribution directly from the mobile application. It is also impossible to transfer another bank to another bank on the card.
