GuideStone introduces new iPhone app

Participants can now access MyGuideStoneTM through an app for iPhone and iPod touch, available for free download by visiting GuideStone’s website at www.GuideStone.org/mobileapp.

With the app, participants can:

  • Check their retirement account balances and the 10 most recent transactions on their accounts.
  • View their accounts, retirement plans and fund selections.
  • Check insurance coverage amounts and premiums.
  • See policy dependents.

“Our participants don’t have the luxury of sitting behind a desk every day,” said GuideStone president O.S. Hawkins. “They are visiting their church members, working with patients in hospitals, teaching classes in colleges and seminaries or attending committee meetings. This app will allow our participants easier on-the-go access to their GuideStone retirement and insurance information.”

A mobile experience for the BlackBerry Torch and Android-based devices is available at www.MyGuideStone.mobi. Soon, GuideStone will provide a similar solution for other web-enabled mobile devices.

“Since the first launch of its website, GuideStone has continuously made enhancements to the user experience,” Hawkins said. “The launch of the app continues demonstrating our commitment in providing our participants the access to account information they want in the format they wish to receive it.” (Baptist Press)
