App works great, visually noisy user interface
I needed to do a bunch of dollar amount conversions over different years. Every time I changed a year, the keyboard would dismiss, the spinners, and the text field would move around under my fingers, making it difficult to re-orient myself and figure out what’s going on. And then when I enter entered a dollar value, the keyboard would appear and then compact the UI. It would be a much more pleasant experience if the keyboard were always present, and the user interface was rock stable while doing several conversions that’s spanned several years

Super useful
This app is very useful for me anytime and older man calls newer generations lazy and I can show them how much more expensive things actually are.
Seems good
Give the formula and percentage
Intuitive
Easy to use. You can enter any number and the results show for the chosen years. It works going backwards in time, as well. Love it!
Gets the job done
Simple, easy to use
Fun app!
I love this app! It helps you get a grip on inflation. I also use it to clarify $$ and movie/tv shows.
Quick and Accurate
Love this app. I use it several times a week and it helps me with budgeting and also to figure out about purchases and salaries from years ago.
App does not work at all
Go back to the original version that actually worked.
Perfect for knowing about “back in the day”
In those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Gimme five bees for a quarter, you'd say.
So useful
I love using this app to check numbers when they are claimed on various memes, etc. It was very helpful in comparing my rent to income ratio to my children’s when we moved out of our parents homes.

Thanks for your review, and for using Back In The Day!
Awesome app
This is the best app to get information on what a price of something in the past is worth today. Most people compare prices directly, but they are not the same. For instance, 1967 bucket of Kentucky fried chicken for $3.75 would actually cost $35 today. That means it is way cheaper today than it was back then by a factor of 2 1/2 times. You can't just compare prices and say it's equal. A
real eye-opener.

Love this app
I don’t even really review apps, but I wanted to show this one some love.
One of my favorite things to do when I’m reading or watching something that takes place in a different era is adjust dollar amounts mentioned for inflation. It helps me understand the stakes at the time.
Sometimes I wish it went back a little further, such as Civil War era, but that’s my only critique. Not worth deducting any stars. I love the simplicity of this app.

Great app
This app really puts time into perspective and how it affects monetary value.
Can’t display; sticks in info page on iPhone
Why won’t it work anymore?
In the day review
This is a fun app. I can see how much first class tickets on the titanic cost in 2024 $$$!
Inflation is killing this country

Quick and easy to use
I use this App almost daily. I am curious person and when watching an old movie from 1936 and they say "she was left a generous sum of $5000" I want to know what amount of money that is in present day and instantly I get my answer.
In The Day
Excellent beyond my ability to describe.
Very helpful
I’m working on a campaign to raise the minimum wage. This tool is super helpful for breaking down what dollar amounts actually mean.
