### 1/5 — Bob D

*2024-12-29*

Too many ads and enticements!!!

### 1/5 — A jip

*2020-09-24*

It’s asking for a payment when I downloaded this app. WHAT PAYMENT? THERE IS NOTHING ON THE APP FROM THE APPLE STORE THAT STATES HOW MUCH THE PAYMENT IS!

### 1/5 — worthless

*2020-01-26*

adds fill the screen making the app unusable, delete

### 1/5 — What is this math exactly....

*2019-10-12*

Numbers are so off every time. I use it to verify that my payments are right when I show clients numbers. Strike that.... is like to use it, but it’s wrong. Who in the world put this together and why did Apple allow it on the App Store?!?!

### 1/5 — Won’t do anything but 30 years

*2019-05-24*

Dumb

### 1/5 — It won’t let you do 10 yr am

*2019-05-20*

Waste of time and frustrating. If you only want a 30 yr am it’s ok. But change from that and it won’t work. Next

### 1/5 — It doesn’t do anything

*2019-02-20*

I put the numbers in the fields, and then it does nothing. There is no “calculate” button or command, and gives the message “must calculate before you can” do anything else — like even leave the screen to go to a different function.  I’m a financial professional who just needed a basic amortization calculator, but after 30 minutes of trying & passing this around for others to look at, no one could figure out how to get the calculator to calculate. I’ve deleted it.

### 1/5 — Only allows for monthly payments

*2019-01-03, version 1.1*

Can’t calculate based on biweekly or accelerated biweekly payments.

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2018-09-24*

Perhaps it's because I've upgraded to iOS 12 two days ago, but I can't use this app. It keeps on crashing the moment I try and edit the interest rate field. I couldn't complete a single calc.

However, if this is indeed the case, it would be a weak excuse by the developer as they would've had access to iOS12 since June to release an update. Frustrating that apps of this poor quality still exist on the App Store.

**Developer response:** I’ve tested it on iOS 12 without issue. What device are you using? Can you comment further on the steps that lead to the crash.

### 2/5 — Can’t change term length

*2019-05-15*

I can’t change the loan to be anything other than 30 years. The field seems like it should edit and work, but it doesn’t. 

I do like the ability to add extra amounts to any individual months. 

Make the time work for arbitrary numbers, and I’ll be happy.

### 5/5 — Easy to understand

*2026-02-27*

Easy to use, accurate, and you can save your loans.

### 5/5 — Love this amortization

*2026-02-20*

Love the simplicity of this one.

### 5/5 — Simple and brilliant

*2025-12-22*

Great app for tracking home loan repayment goals!

### 5/5 — The best

*2025-12-09*

Love everything . Helps me plan out my mortgage in paying off my loan early

### 5/5 — Very easy and convenient to utilize

*2023-04-12*

Nice

### 4/5 — Very good apt but…..

*2026-01-12, version 1.3*

I like this apt.  It mostly gives me the info I need.  If I could suggest adding a feature, it would be the ability to add dates to when the loan was created and when payments are made.  Now it is only payment #’s.  Dates would give me a better picture of where I’m going & what future moves would do.
