  • Nice app

    The app works beautifully for my needs, but I only need it to keep track of one account and only use it on one device. Putting information in is incredibly easy, and the recurring payments have been added to the account on the schedule I specified. I like that each transaction can be coded by a category but can also be named with something more specific so that you can see more clearly at a glance where the money is coming from and where it's going. I also like that I can back up the information by sending myself the data in a spreadsheet.

  • Great App

    Like this app so much so I bought the pro version. My only disappointments are that it did not backup to the cloud, and I apparently neglected to do a backup to my computer so when I bought a new iPad I had to manually start over and enter all my transactions again! I was very disappointed to note that you can only export and not import info. I also cannot find a way to void a check, i.e. I needed to enter a zero amount check that was voided for purposes of direct deposit, and had to enter a penny amount and then enter another transaction backing that penny out. Very cumbersome to have to do that. Otherwise it's a great app.

  • Love it! Very simple and easy!

    I LOVE this app!! Thank you so much for having created it lol it has helped me manage my money in such a fun and simple way. I create new ideas of how to keep track of everything by creating different accounts. I love how I can manage my own categories and start fresh if I need to. This is a lot better than Mint in my opinion because it's simpler, and you're in control of your own money- not a computerized data base- so you know where everything is going as long as you maintain it! But I enjoy that part, so it works out for me.

  • With a few updates, this would be the BEST app.

    I use this app several times a day. For the most part, it's really great. My qualms currently are:
    Being unable to sync across devices
    Being unable to customize the order in which my accounts are displayed
    Being unable to hide accounts. I have accounts that I have closed, but if I delete them, those transactions delete amongst the other accounts (if I have transfers, etc.)
    If they fix the simple things, this app would be the most useful one that I have.

  • Favorite

    By far one of my favorite apps. Would like to know if i can backup my info to my email. But other than that it has made me much more responsible with my finances. No more being afraid of overdrafts because I know exactly where my money is going. Also I have a lot of medical bills and this helps me know what my balance is going to be when I pay each month .

  • Good App - Non responsive customer service!!

    I like the app, it has all of the features I need, with the exception of the ability to share data across multiple devices. I started with the free version and tired of the ads, so I upgraded to the pro version, and was expecting to find additional features, as advertised. If there are any additional features, I haven't found them yet. I've sent four emails to the support page asking for this information and have not received a response. Appxy developers: If you ask for feedback respond to it!!

  • Great App, but a few annoyances...

    I use this app to replace another one I used to use for keeping my account balances.

    The free version was great for a while until it was updated to include pop up ads in it that I always manage to accidentally click on. It became so annoying that I just attempted to buy the app, which I'm sure is the reason they got so annoying.

    I clicked on the link in the app to purchase it and it said I didn't have that paid version installed on my phone, then nothing happened. I went to the App Store and purchased it then migrated data and it worked. However the App Store charged me for the same $2.99 purchase twice. I didn't fight it for $3, but that was kind of annoying.

    I also wish the total balance weren't so small and hard to see in the debit/credit screen. I would just like it to stand out a little more from the background of the screen so I don't have to click back to see the balance better.

    Despite these minor hiccups, all in all this is a good app for maintaining your accounts. I have yet to find a better one in the App Store. I would still recommend it.

  • Needs development

    A good app that is easy to use, but it needs development. While it is a "family share" app -- meaning that the app itself will download across your apple devices -- it cannot yet sync the information you enter into it across your devices. This is a common feature in other apps, and one I had assumed this app would be able to do. As is, this app serves as an electronic check register for a single device. If you want an app that syncs across all your devices, so that both you and your significant other know exactly how much is in your accounts when you are not with one another, then you will need to look elsewhere.

    The three star rating is for the lack of transparency regarding the app not being able to sync information across devices.

  • Works as advertised

    I see a lot of complaints regarding the app not syncing with other iOS devices and I, too, hope they come up with an update that will do that. However, it does everything the description says it does. I love that I can see my true balances to all my accounts in one central location and it's available to me as long as I have my phone with me. No more digging for checkbooks! It took me a few tries to figure out how to reconcile, but that could've just been a blonde moment:) I'm very happy with the app and would recommend to others.

  • No customer service, no difference between free and pro

    I am very unhappy with the customer service, it is nonexistent. I downloaded the free version and liked it so I decided to purchase the pro using their link through the free version. The data I inputed in the free version did not transfer to the upgrade. There is no discernible difference between the free version and the pro version. One little difference, a calculator that is not necessary. I thought there would be a calendar that I could choose the date, NOT. I have sent three emails to them, no response. I would not buy the pro version, just go with the free.
