Ally Bank: Ally Bank is an online bank that provides various banking services, including checking and savings accounts. They were known to allow Canadian residents to open accounts remotely.
Capital One 360: Capital One 360, the online banking division of Capital One, was known to offer remote account opening to Canadian residents and had a mobile banking app.
Charles Schwab: Charles Schwab is primarily known for investment services, but they also offer banking services such as checking and savings accounts. They were reported to allow Canadian residents to open accounts remotely.

TD Bank (US): TD Bank has a US division that offers banking services. They were reported to offer remote account opening to Canadian residents and had a mobile banking app.
Please keep in mind that the policies and offerings of these banks may have changed since my last update. It's recommended to visit the official websites of these banks or contact their customer service to confirm their current policies regarding remote account opening for Canadian residents and the availability of mobile banking apps. Additionally, you might want to explore other options that may have emerged since my last update.
