- No clear instructions or tutorial
No worries
Love this app it helps me planning each month
Need help
One of the expense items show up as “earned” instead of spent - where do I get help?
A simple spending tracker with rollover
I was looking for an app that simply tracked my spending. I was able to set my budgets and this app allowed for a rollover feature. I did end up purchasing the full app to get unlimited budget categories, but I thought it was a small price compared to the $70 apps that have more frills than I was looking for. The only glitch I have found is that sometimes recurring costs get lost and won’t actually be deducted from their associated budget, so I would have to go and put them in manually. Otherwise, it works great! The current version has a glitch. It doesn’t automatically populate it with today’s date. It’s still stuck in January.
Lack of sense
Seemed promising, but calling everything a budget does not make sense. Couldn’t figure how to set revenues and expenses in different accounts and budgets. The help menu is useless to understand how the app works. Too bad, because it is one that kind of promised a management of various regular expenses.
Need more help
I am struggling to manage some details but ‘help’ doesn’t give me enough options
Ruined
Great simple budgeter. Without frills. Love that it doesn’t connect to any accounts, I like controlling it myself.
Pop up ads all the time
Totally annoying pop up ads. Have no idea if it works or not when I’m interrupted every few minutes!
Love it
Only complaint is that I cannot change the new cycle date. Otherwise its an awesome tool and has given me better control over my finances!
Testing app
Confused 🤷♀️ This not good and show you how and no tutorial how to used and the ads popping up uncomfortable 😣
Stole my money
Purchased remove adds for $1.35 got charged $24.95. Scam app
Easy work
This is the easiest budget for households in the apps Love it
This app is complete garbage
Please, do not waste your time. This app make no sense. Complete garbage.
Awesome for Community Group Budgeting
Easy to setup categories, annual budget amounts, expected fundraising, and then reconcile against bank accounts. The reporting tool exports in different formats. Able to sync across devices. Great tool that’s easy to use for a small group treasurer, with the tools of a CFO. Wish I could do zero dollar budget groups just to track unexpected expenses.
Long long long long long
Wow, what a tedious experience. Budgeting is meant to be made simple, every page I click there are pop ups, blimey. Deleted within 5 minutes. Great potential though. An app that is designed to help people, although they would rather generate money by selling ads immediately within the experience
Best app
Its one of the best app to manage budgets., but it would be greate if it has online login option aswell
Good
I am happy with this app. I’m using it for four years. It meets my expectations
How does this work?
A tutorial would be a big help
Good budgeting tool
I am really happy with this particular budgeting app. It gives me the flexibility I need to make adjustments mid month. The only downside to this app is all the useless adds that keep popping up. Very annoying.
App crashes
Installed on version 9.3.1 and application crashed upon startup
Needs improvements
Great app but all your expenses disappear after a while. How can I keep track over months? Maybe the developers needs to create a monthly budget tool and separate income and expenses instead of adding everything up 🤦🏽♂️
Love it!
Love the app! It’s easy to use and helps me keep things straight.
Useless
There's no telling how to use the app. It is not intuitive AT ALL. It's definitely free for a reason. Don't waste your time
Great but not free
This app works but cost $1 to remove ads and $1 for unlimited transactions. So it’s basically a free trail until you reach the allotted free transactions
Not for iPad
Everything is so small. Needs to be screen compatible with iPad/iPad mini.
Review
Needs to allow biweekly recurrence. Should be able to default a time for all transactions
Easy and concise
This is very easy to use and great for a simple budget. It’s easy to track spending and saving!
NO DIRECTIONS!
I don't understand how this app works. Putting a simple tutorial budget scenario will help! It makes no sense to leave the user stranded in your mess of buttons.
Great App
It’s a bit complicated to begin with, but once you understand it and have patience with it it’s very good. I will be using it all the time for me. One thing I’d say is make it work for you and stick to your budget. You must be honest with yourself, for it to work like all budgeting apps. You’ll love it, I like to watch my pennies at present but I’m no way a penny pincher it allows me to plan ahead in detail. 👍
Worked Great for 1 Week then Stopped
After stopped showing all expenses and income on page the add would appear in center on page and never go away. I sure hope the developer can remedy this, however until they they do I will have to give the app a lower rating since I no longer can use it. I will check back later and if fixed I will relate app with a higher score.
Useful App
Very simple and easy use from the app. I liked the layout. If it could sync with my calendar and sound an alarm for payments that are due each month it would Lao be great. Regards
Just what I was looking for
Like this app so far, it's simple, precise and just what I needed to track some recent expenses for a new project.
Lacking
I just don't see how this app is profitable for budgeting.
Great App. Could have a few more features
This is a brilliant app. to keep financial track. What could make it even better is the ability to scan a receipt in instead of manually typing it all in.
Little confusion
This particular version confuses in income and expenses data entry but over all the app is user friendly and easy to use
Perfect
Just what i was looking for!
New Feature: Crash
Create a budget? App crashes. Try again, App crashes. Also, no introduction to show a new user how to use the app.
Great app
Great app just needs to bit brighter and clear
Only okay...
Doesn't incorporate recurring payments or one time payments.
Very Good App
Entering all data wasn’t intuitive at first, but after going through trial and error it’s actually very easy. Once one gets the hang of it, it’s excellent.
Confusing to use
I tried multiple times to understand the app, but it makes no sense. You add a budget and then when you try to factor in income, it makes it complicated and must add it to a single budget and not where you want it. There are no instructions but plenty of features and it's just confusing.
Love it
Am loving this app.
So so
I would like to be able to see all the expenses in a monthly calendar instead of just the list I see.
Excellent
This is the first app that's user-friendly for what I wanted to do when it comes to setting up my budget and accounts for paying for bills.
Great app IF IT DIDNT CRASH
One star only for the reason I can't use it right now crashes , but if it ever works again then I would say 5 stars.
Sweet app with few bugs
This thing is awesome. Only gave 4 stars because it crashes occasionally but otherwise amazing. You can set up budgets for everything you pay in any interval. Could use a tutorial but you can pick it up by playing with it for about an hour. I'll probably upgrade to add-free just to thank the developers.
Nice presentation but not so good
The presentation looks nice and the colours attracted me to try this app. (I have personally paid for and tried many finance apps on iTunes. )But after using it for a bit it is just too difficult to use compared with other apps. Lots of minor UI problems but it does do the job. Example, why is it so hard to enter decimal places on a transaction without calculator? Why I wouldn't be surprised if someone else creates a new budget instead of a new transaction.. App has potential, but not quite there yet
