How to View & Save Your Bank Transactions on an iPhone
This guide explains how to view your full banking transactions using the
desktop version of your bank’s website on an iPhone, and how to
save your transactions as a PDF.
Step 1: Log in Using Safari

Step 2: View Transactions of Your Payroll Account
- Navigate to Accounts, Transactions, or Activity
- Select the account your payroll is deposited into (e.g., chequing or savings)

- While logged in, tap the icon on the far left of the Safari address bar
- Select Request Desktop Website
- The page will reload in desktop view
👆 Look for the “aA” icon or the Text & page settings icon in the left side of the address bar.
