Great money tracking
I’ve upgraded to the premium register and have been very happy. I find the app easy to use. The feature I wish it had was the ability to download transactions from my account.
Unknown expense
Need help in figuring out what this is. I’ve categorized all my expenses so why is one item saying it is unknown?
Reoccurring Payment not syncing; math off
I’ve been using this app since 2015 and between that time I’ve upgraded. I’d love to us this app but it needs an update.
Reoccurring payments aren’t hitting when they occur. I have to manually enter them and delete them once they hit days or weeks later. It also depends if other transactions occurred before and during the transaction time. It’s hard to calculate pending transactions when they aren’t subtracted on time or at all.
The math on the expenses is off. For example, say you go shopping and get ‘Food’ and ‘Shopping’, or split the receipt or transaction. I have to literally separate the check in separate categories and separate logs. One receipt may have several ‘parts’ and the math does calculate split receipts. When you use the graphs, the split payments/transactions are not calculated at all or in the category.
Unfortunately, I’m going to have to use another app. If one massive update happens to fix this issue, I’ll come back. But for now, I need the app to work as it should. It hasn’t worked the way it used to since at least the beginning of 2019. It’s great when it works but now it’s tedious and not worth my effort.

Good but...
I do like the layout and simplicity of this app, helps me organize my money before it gets taken out for bills and categorizing my expenses forces me to assess where I waste money.
HOWEVER as many have mentioned there is a glitch - I often am 1 penny off from my account (I.e. the total is a penny over, however if I subtract a penny then I am a penny under my actual account) - It makes sense if you’ve dealt with the glitch. Frustrating and overall I can identify when it’s causing a mismatch but if I didn’t recognize it I could see it possibly causing miscalculations over the long long term.
If they could fix this I’d love this app. I haven’t gone to another app yet because I love the functionality of it, but I’m considering changing if this continues.

Spelling pet peeve
I have thoroughly enjoyed this app and my quirk has nothing to do with the functionality of the app. I realize I didn’t have to pay for this app but that should be irrelevant to making sure the app is free of misspellings. I have been naming my own categories until today, I decided to browse through to see what was available and there it was starring me right in the face! The word Restaurant spelled “Restuarant”. I realize this is something that most will find to be petty but then again there will be others that read the review and get where I am coming from with my review. I have an Elementary Education degree and I strive to do my best every day with my grammar whether it is my spelling or spoken word. With that all being said, I really like the app and would recommend it to anyone looking for an easy to use yet accurate checkbook app. 😊

Couldn’t live without this!
I LOVE this app! I’ve been using it for quite awhile and couldn’t live without it! Since I always have my phone with me (it is also my wallet) it’s super easy to enter things right after I purchase them so I always know what my balance is. It’s much easier than collecting receipts and entering them in a real checkbook like my girlfriend does (granted she loves math and doing stuff by hand). Initially you have to do some set up of your categories but once those are entered they will automatically populate. I hope this app never goes away because I depend on it!

Best app ever, use it daily, absolutely perfect
This has completely replaced my archaic paper checkbook register. Another reviewer wrote that “the math is off” but of course that’s not possible. The math can’t be off because it is a calculator. It’s perfect. No more crossing out or rewriting numbers. I can plan my expenses and simply check them off as they clear and know what my balance will be. I have to say, of the 40 or 50 apps I have, this is the one I open first, every day, and really couldn’t do without. Best of all, it keeps all the transactions in perfect order. You can insert a new transaction at any point, set up recurring transactions, etc. I’d give it ten stars if that were an option.

Perfect if you don’t like writing receipts in!
I got this app about 4 and a half years ago to delete the usage of a real checkbook at home and I haven’t gone back to it since. I use this app literally every single day. It saves all of your actions so if you go to a place more than once, it already has the name saved so you just write in the price and the category is already saved.
One thing I think that should change in the app is to allow the user to be able to delete these saved “Descriptions”. Because if you have used this app for a long time, you’ll start to have to scroll through items that won’t be needed again and it can get annoying.

Worked for a couple of months
I needed a quicker way to track my spending instead of the paper check register book. This work for a bit. Drawbacks
-When reconciling your checkbook to your bank statement you can check off an item in the checkbook but it does not tell you what the end balance was for that date so you can’t fully reconcile them.
-I often found myself forgetting whether or not I had put a transaction into the checkbook and when I went to search half of the letters I typed in kicked me out of the app.
-in the app they give you setting options where you can click on big report, feature request, I like it, contact us, and website but the only two it lets you actually go into are the website and I like it
If you don’t do reconciliations and you just need something to track your purchases this will work perfect for you. Someone posted that they had issues with the math being off. I had it spot on when I first started it. Since then it has been a couple of months and I haven’t been able to fully reconcile it, the numbers don’t add up and I don't have the time to check the work of an app. that is supposed to be doing math on its own.
I have purchased another app. to try. This one just doesn’t do what I need it to do.

Great App, Great Price! Will it Hang Around?
Been using this app since late 2017. Used 2 other “register” apps prior, and they BOTH became obsolete with no updates and Apple’s constant software updates. The last time I had to swap apps, I lost a huge amount of proof of purchases because my phone wouldn’t even open it enough to back it up. Every time I tried, I got this “not supported, please update message”, yet there were no updates. I paid for all of those apps, then to lose all my information because they weren’t updated to compatibility with iOS.
Now, I love this register. It’s the best one I’ve used so far. I hope the devs will be able to keep it going, although I usually run several iOS updates behind, there always comes a point when I’m basically forced to complete an iOS update, and I don’t want to lose all my financial info in the process.
