  • Please add refresh accounts

    Accounts are not able to refresh in the app so it’s always behind. Have to use desktop almost 100% of the time :(
  • Very clever bit of kit

    My accountant made me sign up to this software and already it’s saved me over £1000.
    I’m not to great on computers and when it comes calculating tax, CIS, and VAT returns it’s a complete drain on my time and resources. I have admittedly spent a few hours setting this all up but no more time than doing the VAT return, but now I can honestly say I’m flying with it. My accountant is impressed and XERO has on its stats in the dashboard says I’m up 137% on last month plus XERO had noticed that a customer who I thought had paid in full hadn’t paid an invoice I thought I had handed over but failed to give them!!!
    Now I can email invoices straight from the software with a notification when the customer reads the invoice!
    So all in all fantastic bit if kit but my only negative comment is the fact the bank stream needs to be updated by the accountant?

  • Service is great, app not so much

    Why can’t I send a receipt from the app while I’m away from the office? If I mark an I novice as paid I should immediately be able to send a receipt with one click. Can we please add this basic feature?

    Developer Response

    Hello Sal139, thank you for taking the time to let us know about a feature that you would like to see added to our mobile app. Sending receipts is one of the items currently under consideration for development.
  • Useless App

    This app offers none of the features of the actual software.
  • A good helper for daily management

    It solves most of day-to-day accounting tasks for a small business. I use the app most of the day unless I have something that has to be done more comfortably on desktop. A mobile app is handy and easy to use. Great work! I would love to see more functionality enabled on the app in the future.

    Hello mushi_sushi - thank you for taking the time to leave us such great feedback!
  • Kinda pathetic

    For such a big company, why is the app so limited? You’re not a small startup you have no excuse to offer such a limited app.
    You can generate invoices, but it’s impossible to search for them and edit them. Basic features I would expect.
  • Good for adding receipts but not much else

    Why can’t I run reports in the app? Let me run a cash flow, income statement and balance sheet from the app! I don’t need every single report but as a business owner I’d like to be able to pull up my financials at least.
  • Fantastic!

    I love the simplicity of this app, you want bells and whistles that never function try the others. Day in and day out this app functions flawlessly.
  • Great accounting tool but lackluster app

    As an accounting system, our team likes using xero after recently replacing Quickbooks. This app however is pretty minimal in its functionality. I have all the apps for whatever tools we use, except for this one. Dear developers, please create an app that we can use to actually get stuff done.
  • Xero Triples subscription cost with no warning

    Xero announced that it is removing the core feature of being able to reimburse yourself or your employees for business expenses unless you pay and extra $5 PER PERSON per month. The $30/month subscription is quickly dwarfed by this cost if you have even a small number of employees.
