Leave a Review Quick Checkbook Pro
Worth the subscription
I have used this app for many years, and it’s literally the only app that I am willing to pay a subscription for. There is no better checkbook app out there. You can add as many accounts as you need to, and the layout is simple, but attractive. Checking off purchases is easy, and the search feature is very helpful. The newest update added a calculator feature, and a way to split the categories of a single purchase. This makes watching a strict budget very easy.
If I could give a couple of suggestions, I would ask that the default pie chart that pops up be monthly, instead of “all”. The “all” report is not particularly helpful, especially if you’ve used the app for many years. Also, there aren’t very many options for picture icons for categories. This is a very trivial thing, but it’s always nice to have the right picture for each category. These are only suggestions, definitely not complaints.
Thank you for making this app and keeping it current for us! I can see that my subscription money was well-spent in working on this update.Show lessLillieflowers
Major update issues
Update format changed, but I can get used to it over time. Not quite as user friendly as before but I can see some function enhancements that will be useful. HOWEVER it now takes approx 5 seconds for many clicks that you made. Adding a new transaction 5 seconds for it to open the box, checking the cleared button - 5 seconds before it registers and allows you to do anything else. This has become super inefficient. I’ve been subscribed to this app for a while, but if fixes aren’t figured out soon, I will have to switch. The increase in options is not worth it for how inefficient the app has become.Show lessLaylaMommy
Excellent app
I have been using Quick Checkbook for over a year and have been very happy with the breadth of capabilities and ease of use. Then in an update last week something was changed and I could no longer view entries by payer (only by category). Contacted the developer, who responded the next day. One day after that they released a new update which included the fix. I wish every app developer was as responsive as these folks! Highly recommended!Show lessFdh161
Please show payee!
I’ve always loved this app, but I cringe a little when an update happens. This last one made the app way too busy, which I’ll probably get used to. What I can’t get used to though is that you can’t see the payee when looking at the all transactions. Everything is sorted as the category, which doesn’t help someone like me who budgets ahead of time and reconciles once it’s paid. You can only see the payee when you open the transaction. Do you know how many things I categorized as miscellaneous? I know, my problem. But I never anticipated I would see the actual name of who I was paying.
Please give us back the payee view. This latest update feels like the one that will drive me away from this app for good.Show lessCrissi1
Update has ruined the app
Loved this app and used it for many years. Now they did an update and took it from simple and easy to use to now it is just busy for no reason and impossible to find anything. When looking at your transactions the only thing you can see from the list is the category and amount. You now have to click on each one to see where you spent the money. Makes no sense and makes it hard to balance your account. Also runs slower and freezes. Also you can no longer see your cleared and available balance easily and on the same screen. I guess I will have to switch to a more user friendly app now after this update.Show lessjmk2016

It was a perfect app until someone decided to update it on Dec 7, 2022.
It became the worst ever .
Will delete it and find something elsemoho4848
Almost everything I wanted
This is a terrific app. It is easy to use and I love the fingerprint security feature. The two things I wish it included are: 1. Sub folders to divide my accounts into. I use the app to keep a clear picture of ALL of my finances so if I could separate the accounts in to Credit Cards, School Loans, Personal Banking, Retirement, etc it would be great. 2. Automatic iCloud back up. It would be nice to not have to manually back up the app to iCloud everytime I make an entry. It is nice that you have Dropbox as an alternative though! 3. Ability to split purchase into subcategories. For example, I spend $50 at Walmart $25 of which is on prescriptions (a monthly medical cost) and $25 on groceries (a separate monthly cost). It would be nice to be able to designate them to different cost centres so that I can more accurately see what I am spending on each by month.Show lessSoberinJeffersonDistrict
Hate the update
I don’t like the new layout of accounts or that you can’t change them to the old format of all on one screen scrolling to find the accounts I want now is painfultammy102
Ok, But Not Great
I rate apps off of the number of complaints I have. I’ve been using this app for a few weeks now after switching to Apple. I have 2 complaints as of now. First complaint, when switched to ascending. Every time you open an account it’s always at the top and one must scroll down to view recent transactions. If the setting is set for ascending the app should open where the last transaction was entered and for descending the app would open at the top. My second complaint is payment for full access. What happened to paying for an app and it’s ours. No matter how much I enjoy an app even if it’s the only one available. I will turn it down for monthly and year payments, so back to the drawing board I guess. If I can’t find an app, I can use Excel for free.Show lessDefence101
Straightforward / Intuitive
I have replaced my hardcopy check book register with this program. I’m very happy with it. It does the job quite nicely without a lot of complexity. I maintain multiple accounts. One suggestion would be to automate the backup feature. The backup options are great, but they require activation by the user which requires an additional step. I would also like the ability to sort/filter the transactions for a specific account by the transaction type. That would make reconciliation much easier.Show lessKtaschetti
