Conflicted even after using for years.
Basically does most of the things that I need but the way it never innovates or adds anything that us user suggests, and really easy features that are standard in most apps infuriates me. I bet most of us are happy to pay a bit more but that’s just annoying at this point. 5 stars for all the good years I had with this app but 1 for the lack of innovation and complete denial to integrate anything we suggest in the app.

Greatexpens apps I have been using daily for many years It does very well, I will be lost without it
But I hope for more flexibility to use more than one currency at one time
Also, it is a new problem for me when I get back to old data the one with photo
Unfortunately, delete the expense forever

The only budget app I found both simple and powerful enough to stick with
I tried a lot of budget apps, free and paid. What I like about this app is it gives you a lot of the flexibility and control you get with a serious accounting app without the complex setup those often require.
For instance, you can completely customize the Categories and Subcategories to get the kind of financial picture that works best for you.
You can also do somewhat tricky things like set both a ‘positive’ cost budget and ‘negative’ income budget that cancel out to show you your real discretionary income after “pass-thru” costs.
It’s also easy to track both regular balances, like your checking, savings and cash, as well as credit card debt and loans and make transfers between these accounts. The bill calendar can show these recurring transfers as bills since, after all, they end up being part of your month-over-month liabilities.
The ‘reconciliation’ feature can really help you if you cultivate a habit of doing it since it helps you track the difference between pending and posted balances.
And, of course, a big part of the paid features is the family feature where multiple users and devices can work in the same accounts and everything stays in-sync.
In short, the fact that this app is simple and doesn’t try to automate too much for you is part of its strength because it keeps it highly flexible and customizable.

Best app ever!
Purchased this app ages ago and it is honestly my fave app ever! It’s really helped us manage our finances collectively, save for our financial goals and have clarity on what we’ve been spending our money on. I’ve been recommending this to all my friends, it’s a brilliant idea and executed so well!!

Excellent app for home budgeting
My wife and I have been using this app for several years as a way to keep track of our finances. It has the ability to update itself cross platform for both my PC, my Mac, along with my iPhone, and my wife’s iPhone this allows us to easily enter our purchases and categorize them. I really like the fact that you can add Canadian accounts, and it will automatically convert the currency.
You can then easily create a report that categorizes you’re spending or export it as a csv file for excel.

I didn’t understand how to use the app to its fullest at first
I was not finance savvy and didn’t get the concept of reconciliation when I first tried this app years ago. I tried again a few months ago and absolutely love this app. It’s everything I’ve been looking for. I wanted a place where I can see all my account balances without actually linking my bank via plaid.. etc. I bought the full app back all those years ago and still have the complete access. Very satisfied.

The best app
It’s so easy to use it! I tried different apps but too complicated.
Very simple to use. Thank you for creating this.

Useful app. Great for a number of things
I do love the app. Have had it for a while and finally went and got the Mac version as well so everything can sync. The one thing I’d like which is not there is to allow the upload of PDF receipts rather than just photos but that is a small thing.
Awesome app
I have been using this app for over 10 years. It does everything I want it to do. Allows me to track our household income and expenses.
