H&R Block Launches Android Tax Filing App, Extends Free Filing Offer

KANSAS CITY, MOâ€"(Marketwire -02/29/12)- HR Block (NYSE: HRB â€" News) today released its Android tax preparation filing app [1] and is extending the industry’s only fully free mobile filing offer for tax filers.

Using the smartphone app, filers can easily complete a federal 1040EZ [2] and state return by photographing their W-2 to automatically import data into the app. Generally, a 1040EZ filer is a single or married taxpayer who does not itemize deductions, has no dependents and earned less than $100,000 last year.

In addition to the 1040EZ form, filers with more complex tax returns can complete a federal 1040 or 1040A form on the iPad tablet app at no cost all season. The smartphone and tablet apps all feature:

  • Free audit support and representation
  • 100-percent accuracy guarantee
  • Maximum refund guarantee

For a full explanation of these guarantees, see http://www.hrblock.com/why-hr-block/our-guarantees.html [3] .

The nation's largest tax preparation company said Wednesday it is offering free simple federal and state tax returns to customers who download its tax preparation application for Android phones. It already offers the service to customers who use iPhones, which use a different software operating system.

The offer is part of H&R Block's strategy to boost online tax filings as it competes with rival TurboTax. The company said earlier this month that online customers were driving growth in the total number of tax returns it has processed this tax season. Total returns were up nearly 7 percent from last year, while digital tax returns rose 16.7 percent, led by online growth. Retail tax returns, by contrast, rose by 2.1 percent.

The Android operating system can run on a variety of mobile phones, made by different companies like Samsung. The iPhone software and applications for it only run on phones and tablet devices built by Apple.

H&R Block said its Android application lets customers complete a federal 1040EZ and state tax return by photographing their W-2 and automatically importing that data into the application.

Generally, a the 1040EZ tax form is used by single or married taxpayers who do not itemize deductions, have no dependents and earned less than $100,000 last year.

Block is also offering free 1040EZ filing through April 30 at its retail offices in the Atlanta, Miami-Ft. Lauderdale and Montgomery, Ala., areas. Its nationwide promotion has expired.

Taxpayers whose adjusted gross income was less than $57,000 in 2011 also qualify for free software through the Internal Revenue Service FreeFile program. Block is among the 15 software providers for that program. For more details, visit the www.irs.gov.

Shares of H&R Block fell 11 cents, or less than 1 percent, to $16.42 in afternoon trading.

Tasted Menu Releases iPhone App, Launches in Austin & Premieres New Vegetarian Feature

Where’s the best blueberry pancakes in Boston? How about the best filet mignon? Chocolate cake? Rejoice, foodies, there’s an app for that.

Today, Boston-based Tasted Menu [1] , the site that allows users to rate restaurant dishes as opposed to the entire restaurant itself, launched a full-fledged, free iPhone app [2] , allowing diners to find the best of the best grub on-the-go.

“We had known in the back of our minds that the main use case was going to be a mobile one,” says Tasted Menu founder & CEO Alex Rosenfeld. “We’ve built up a lot of great content for content, so I think we’re at a point to start addressing a broader audience.”

The app, which is similar in functionality to the Tasted Menu website, is targeted at diners in a restaurant, looking to find out the best dishes at that establishment, with photos, ratings and reviews all integrated into the app.

“It’s really focused on where to eat and where to find the best dishes,” explains Rosenfeld.

With 10,000 reviews for Boston dishes in the database, foodies won’t go hungry anytime soon. Rosenfeld says that volume of reviews is “exciting for us because that’s without having a mobile app launch. We expect that number to inflect even further once the mobile app’s out there.”

Since their beta launched in September, Tasted Menu has dramatically expanded their team. Most notably, they’ve recruited a national team of 40 menu curators with credentials like the Culinary Institute of America, the French Culinary Institute, Bon Appetit, Cooks Illustrated, Harvard and BU to incorporate additional layers of data on top of the menu.

This data, which Rosenfeld refers to as “Culinary Taxonomy,” organizes dishes into gastronomic categories, similar to how Pandora’s musicologists organize songs by sound category. “I feel like we’ve built the equivalent of that for food,” he says, comparing Tasted Menu to Pandora. For example, you can sort by “tags,” such as “burger,” to locate the top-rated burger dishes in Boston.

Through this tagging system, Tasted Menu also launched its new Veggie View feature today, which can be found on both the app and the web platforms. “Seventeen percent of Americans prefer to eat vegetarian when dining out,” says Rosenfeld, so the team has incorporated a special vegetarian-only filter on its menu.

Finally, just in time for SXSW, Tasted Menu has launched in Austin, Texas, its first city beyond Boston. The Austin launch incorporates 1,000 restaurant locations, not just in the city itself but in surrounding towns, as well. “This is the start of our national expansion,” says Rosenfeld, adding that they have a list of a dozen other cities they hope to tackle in the next 12 to 18 months.

“The exciting thing for us is that we’ve basically launched Austin from scratch in four weeks,” he says. “It makes us very confident that this is viable.”

As someone who dines out almost every night a week, I’d have to agree.
