PayPal Updates its Android App; Now Has NFC Support

[dgstorm]

The new version of the PayPal app is in the Android marketplace now. This update brings several new fixes and features. Here's a breakdown of a few:

• The in-app experience was enhanced with improvements to the UI
• Navigation is now easier on tablets and smartphones
• There is a new widget that allows allows you to make NFC payments if your device has the chip

The best part about these upgrades is that the new NFC capabilities facilitate the easiest way to transfer money you can imagine. You just bring up the app, type in the amount of "cash" you want to transfer, then tap your NFC device to theirs. It is the "seedling" of a cashless society! That's both scary and cool at the same time. What do you think?
