Funding issues
I’d wished the funding were liked with the accounts. It creates some confusion when moving money from different accounts.Jg087
A for features, but C- for stability
I tried the money wise app in hope that I could recommend it to my daughter and future son-in-law for their money management. I was impressed at the Plaid feature as it collected all my accounts from my bank. However, when I started adding envelopes I chose to delete the Hourly envelope and then the app crashed. I won’t recommend this app since it feels at first blush as a trade show demo.
I’ve been using a spreadsheet to derive our budget and my bank’s app to fund numerous accounts as envelopes with more trust worthy behavior. I’d gladly try it again once the code for it is more stable.
I’m thankful for the Money Wise ministry and the existing podcasts.MapleInVT

Thank you for this feedback. We released version 3.0.0 today, which included several improvements and better stability. We encourage you to give the update a try and you can send feedback or any problems you encounter to support@moneywise.org and we’d be delighted to help.Excited for the apps potential
I trust MoneyWise and was excited to learn about this app to help manage my finances electronically.
I signed up for the free trial offer to check out the benefits of the paid version.
The interface is clean and easy to navigate and I had no difficulty connecting to my external institutions. Having the feed automatically upload is so helpful, as money moves fast in and out of these accounts.
I am pleased to be able to easily add custom envelopes however
I read that the free version has 75 options for envelopes (but with no customization), and I would love to see that benefit added to the paid subscription (18 envelopes).
One more suggestion — A button for “add new envelope” when you long press into an unassigned transaction would be such a time saver.
Otherwise excited to get started with a biblically sound plan for the providence God has provided.
Thank you!mom from MI
Fantastic Time Saver
This app has freed up a lot of time that has been spent entering receipts into the computer. The support staff has been amazing. They are quick to respond to questions, and they offer online tutorials to help non-tech savvy customers.Papadog1066!
Simple Envelope Budgeting
My wife and I have been looking for something like this for awhile. Other apps like YNAB and Every Dollar were still a little too complicated. My only feedback was would be nice to have to better transaction entry options. Capital One unfortunately doesn’t play nice with Plaid.Clinthicks

Thanks so much for the review and feedback! We’ll be releasing a new feature for CSV uploads of transactions to help make that process easier when you have several entries to make. We’ve also been told a Capital One connection can be expected from Plaid in the coming months!Best Envelope System
I had used the Crown Financial software for so many years. I was struggling to find an app that could replace it because it would no longer work with the new operating system on my computer. This app is perfect. Downloads my bank transactions and allows me to update my envelopes throughout the day so I don’t have to do it sitting down at the computer. Maintains an accurate record of my spending, budgeted amount, and spending category balances.Jacktavious
Great App!
It is so nice to have all our finances in one spot with no guesswork anymore. Very thankful for this app for helping us be financially responsible by making it easy to see where our money is going. Would highly recommend!cmk3030
Unbelievable
I have struggled with so many aspects of my finances, and especially as a believer, I rarely had put God first when it came to my finances. But this app has helped in so many ways and has pointed me in the right direction! Easy to use, easy to adjust, and easily changed my ways! Thank you!tennis_star89-?
