Mobile banking apps are a dime a dozen, but a recent update to JPMorgan Chase's free iPhone app really makes it stand out from the rest. Now, customers can
deposit checks to their account via iPhone snapshots. It's as simple as logging into your account on the Chase Mobile iPhone app and snapping a photo of both the front and back of the check. Soon after, it will land in your account without the need to fill out deposit slips or deal with a surly teller.
USAA has been offering the same functionality for over a year, but Chase is the first mainstream national bank to embrace the picture possibilities. Hopefully, Chase will bring the feature to other platforms, like BlackBerry and Android, soon. [From:

As long as there been checks, there's been fraud. This doesn't really change anything. Just makes it faster to do and easier to get caught.

USAA has been doing this since the 3GS hit the market. Chase is not standing out.
