Fellow Product Hunters, Raphael Ouzan here, co-founder of BillGuard. Today, we're celebrating the big launch of our iOS and Android apps since the acquisition of BillGuard by Prosper last October.
Since starting BillGuard, we've dreamt of empowering consumers with a smarter, more efficient way to deal with personal finance. Now, we're closer than ever: the rebranded, upgraded BillGuard is live and we call it Prosper Daily.
* Why a new name? We're now leveraging the best of Prosper's unique FinTech IP to help you not only track and protect your money, but also to tangibly optimize your financial life. We've almost doubled our team in Tel Aviv, redesigned the app, started offering a free credit score, and added debt analytics to help you uncover hard-to-track creeping costs. All this while striving to distill the complexity of all things finance down to a tap or swipe.
* What's up with the fuchsia? Wait, who said a money app has to be that heavy institutional blue, green and black? Prosper Daily will empower you in new and surprising ways, so its graphic personality is distinct among financial apps: friendly, light and forward-thinking.
Try it out! I'd love to hear your thoughts.

@raphaelouzan I was excited for this (I Gave up on Mint - too much). Tried connecting my first account (PNC Bank) and it's been spinning "Connecting your card" for ~7 minutes now :-( Any known issues with PNC?

@settonsamuel @raphaelouzan My PNC card eventually worked (took over 35 minutes) - got a nice alert on my watch that it was ready though. Trying some other accounts now

@raphaelouzan I think you've got a bad bug here. I mis-entered one of my security questions on an account (PNC Credit card) and instead of it re-prompting me for it again, it only prompts for UserName/Password. It also apparently kept trying all night (even with app shut) because I had 4 emails from PNC this morning "Your security question was just answered incorrectly".
Now my account is locked out until I deal with the bank when they open :-(
What I saw of the app looked cool, but this seems like a bad issue.
