  • Awful

    User interface is trying too hard to be minimal/trendy. It flops when you try to add banks, there’s no way to manually input your info without using Face ID and it’s SUPER painfully slow.

    Hopefully the content and advice will be worth the headache I just endured.
  • I don’t trust this app

    I truly do not understand how to use this app. I think these reviews are fake. It does not even appear to be finished. No way to edit bank information and after sitting with it for 2 months it still hasn’t “come up with a plan”. Writing this to warn people before they put information into the app.
  • I wish I discovered this app sooner!

    It’s incredible how impactful having a plan is to financial success. I love the features and design of this app because it’s a place I can come back to and see my progress which motivates me to continue forward.

  • Good for organizing finances

    Financial health is something that many people neglect until a crisis happens. This app is a good way to make sure people are better prepared. It helps to organize your finances so that life’s hiccups and issues are no longer so overwhelming.

  • Simple, straightforward

    I love this simple, straightforward take on personal finance management. For someone who struggles with prioritizing this, the ease of use & access from my phone makes me want to check as I would a dating app or Instagram. Here’s to a year of productive addictions, starting with The Beans.

  • Super Helpful Tech Support

    Tech support on the ap is super helpful and will give you quick attention.
  • I needed this app, you might too!

    After graduation, balancing a new work life and my finances became more and more difficult. Other apps have fallen short, making me spend so much time labeling my charges and making me feel bad about spending on myself.

    This app makes it so easy! The labeling is automated and it even has plans for savings goals.

    I’m so excited to get on top of my bills and student loans with this service!

    Thanks, CoastalCruiser96! We're honored to be part of your post-graduation game plan. The Data team works hard so you don't have to do the work of labeling, I'll pass your message on to them. I'd love to hear more feedback on how we can make The Beans even better.

  • Beautiful, intuitive app

    This is a great app for helping you set and maintain financial goals. It’s beautifully designed. It’s easy to use. It’s a personalized experience unlike other financial apps.

    Thank you, Annie! It's so important to us to make the experience personalized. My best friends are all members of the Caring Class, teachers, healthcare, government, and nonprofit employees who put mission over money, and don't have the time or bandwidth to tackle their finances in the old way. My wish is that The Beans enables teachers everywhere to stress less about finances and to focus on what you love! I'm keen to hear your thoughts on the latest build.
