Kiva.org doesn't provide the remaining credit details and ability to directly lend using their API. So iKiva can't get your available credit or loan transaction details. As soon as Kiva provides API methods to retrieve that information, we'll be happy to update the app and show all the info.

Beautiful, easy to use... It's Kiva in your pocket.
I know Vijay has been working on this for a while, and it was with every minute of the wait! A beautiful, clean interface for browsing loans, basket checkout, and even tools to monitor your teams or portfolio (if public)!
This app is at least as enjoyable as the Kiva website and by far the best experience for using Kiva on mobile. Bravo ThoughtVine!!!
7 x 5 stars ?
Why does everybody praise it? I signed in, it did not ask me for my password, then it showed 0 loans.
After I picked a loan I had to sign in again (I assume this actually connected to Kiva). So why the first signin when it does not serve a purpose?
3 stars for effort
Fantastic!
Very intuitive and easy to use to find loans, then it passes off to Kiva to complete the transaction. Great stuff!
