This app makes it so much easier. I like that I can keep track of multiple accounts. ### 3/5 — Not bad *2017-08-04, version 1.11.5* Have had this app for awhile. Usually works pretty well. Frustrating that the scheduled transaction display by "day" order instead of "date". Think about that: in the list a transaction for 9/2 appears before one for 8/6, because "2" comes before "6". I'm not a programmer but that ought to be fairly easy code to correct. Have also been told they're going to get the re-occurring option on the subscription (auto renew) but haven't seen them that either. Support is very responsive to inquiries, just need more updates. ### 4/5 — Works like a charm *2017-04-23, version 1.11.5* I wish they didn't charge monthly for the sync option. Otherwise it's a good app. Been looking for something like this for sometime. Works great so far. I like the ability to back up the data periodically and the sync option to share data across devices is useful. ### 5/5 — Great App *2016-12-25, version 1.11.5* This is a great app, period. Easy to use, customizable, yet simple. Great features like backups and csv export of data. Wouldn't want to be without it. ### 5/5 — Nice for the Price *2016-11-08, version 1.11.3* Thanks to the developer for having such a caring attitude and for the commitment to continuous support to those who have purchased this app. Another checking account app I had was abandoned by its developer so it's nice to have this and not worry about whether or not it's going to work with the latest version of IOS. ### 4/5 — So far so good... *2016-10-15, version 1.11.2* Would be great if you had reports on the app instead of just exporting and also if you could split money between different categories. ### 5/5 — Great App!!! *2016-09-26, version 1.11.2* Using this app has helped me greatly with managing my finances! Thanks!!! ### 5/5 — May be the greatest app EVER!!!! *2016-09-23, version 1.11.2* I posted a bad review on this app a few days ago and would like to take it back. I thought I had lost my data. The developer was so nice and helped me. Really was my fault. This app saves me hours every week and I know exactly how much mone I have at all times. It is wonderful. ### 5/5 — Great, simple app *2016-08-18, version 1.11.0* I've been using this app for a few years now and have NEVER had a problem. Easy to use and offers great options for uploading info into Excel. ### 5/5 — PERFECT! *2016-07-12, version 1.10.0* Simple and direct. No in app purchases and one fee for great app! Keep it the way it is. ### 5/5 — ! *2016-07-12, version 1.10.0* I wanted something simple, easy to use. And it is. I love it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Buyer beware *2018-02-26, version 1.11.7* This app is actually terrible. First, you have to be on a waiting list for the synchronized option. Secondly, if you don’t apply a purchase or deposit the day of, you better do it before it hits midnight. You can’t record something from yesterday!!! It’s actually terrible. I really hope that I can stop the transaction before they get my money. So disappointed. ### 1/5 — poor syncing capabilities *2017-07-17, version 1.11.5* It doesn't sync my data between multiple devices ### 1/5 — No expense categories *2017-05-01, version 1.11.5* Can't filter by expense categories. Waste of money! All it does is list it but you can't get any kind of reports. ### 1/5 — Great app *2016-11-28, version 1.11.4* With the update on November 21st I can no longer get into my account. Worst thing to start my morning off with! ### 1/5 — Dont bother *2016-08-27, version 1.11.1* I understand the sync feature should cost a bit, but $4.99 a month after you spent $7.99 just to get the app. RIP OFF. i want my money back. Ill ise paper book again before i pay that kind of money. Maybe like $15 a year but this much, **** that. ### 1/5 — Very Simple. Need more *2013-08-31, version 1.1.5* I would like to select more colors for my transactions. I also like to select deposit only or debits only or have them only those for a specific date or specific kind of transaction. This is to simple. Love it but searching for something more complete. ### 2/5 — Great Finance Tracking App *2017-12-11, version 1.11.5* This app is great! It is very simplistic with easy transaction posting. Developer is very responsive to your questions which is rare. I've asked for a few additional upgrades for future revisions which if occur 5 stars will happen. Great job developer!!! That was my initial review. My outlook has changed. The $4.99 a month is overpriced especially since the app has not been updated in over a year. This app needs the availability to show future balance over a 30, 60, or 90 by summing total scheduled deposits minus the scheduled deposits. Scheduled debuts are not even in order by month. For some reason when you have not used a merchant the name is dropped. On to the next app. ### 2/5 — Doesn't sync *2017-09-26, version 1.11.5* This app is good if you don't want to share info with another device. Not my first issue. I'm paying $5 a month for a syncing app just so my husband can over draw because his app isn't syncing with mine. And yes, as I've been asked by the app creator before, he's signed in. I'll be finding a new one where I'm not wasting my money, and some. ### 2/5 — Best Checkbook App, but... *2017-09-25, version 1.11.5* By far my favorite checkbook app since iReconcile has gone away. It’s really perfect, but why the two star rating then??? The monthly fee to use the syncing is ridiculously high! Unfortunately there is no competition so forced paying it so the wife and I can be in sync. ### 3/5 — Great app!! *2020-08-03, version 1.11.9* Like this app a lot when everything works rite!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-10-31, version 1.12.5* Great app. But how about a dark mode. ### 5/5 — Best Check Booking App on Apple *2022-05-16, version 1.12.5* I’ve talked to the creator, several times, the nicest people and they help you all the way. I use this to keep up with my expenses and shares with my wife when we put stuff in the phone. Try it, you won’t go back to anything else! ### 5/5 — Superb App! *2017-07-30, version 1.11.5* What great support!!! It's worth every penny! Now when my wife makes a mistake on this checkbook app. I'll be able to correct it! I've been using this app. for a very long time. Since I was only able to view it on my Iphone my wife could not check the balance. I downloaded the app to my wife's Iphone and was unable to get it to sync to my phone. When I called Support the gentleman was able to help me get the app. working correctly and I was able to sync it to my wife's Iphone in a very short period of time!!! Best support of any app I've ever used!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Great checkbook register *2017-07-26, version 1.11.5* (2 years later) This app is one of my most accessed apps. It works every time. No problems, no issues. (Original review)Works as advertised, the best thing to say is that I never have think of it. It works when I need it. ### 5/5 — Good app! *2017-04-09, version 1.11.5* It does exactly what I wanted it to do, keep a running total of my accounts. ### 5/5 — Love sync feature *2017-03-29, version 1.11.5* This is an amazing app for sharing with your spouse. It sync Instantly on both phones. This is the app my husband and I have been looking for. ### 5/5 — Great Replacement for Ireconcile *2017-03-23, version 1.11.5* This is a great app for keeping up with your check register so you can know where you are. It is very easy to use! ### 5/5 — GREAT APP *2017-03-07, version 1.11.5* I paid for the full version (completely worth it to me)! I was having issues and email support and they were very responsive and super helpful! ### 5/5 — GREAT PRODUCT *2017-02-16, version 1.11.5* Great product to manage a lot of accounts plus share with your partner so everyone knows what you have in the bank 😉. Worth the monthly fee for sure!! And to top it off great customer service of you have a question! ### 5/5 — diggn4info *2017-01-15, version 1.11.5* AMAZING app!!! The "sync" feature has helped me and my wife reconcile our checkbook instantly instead of hours of frustration!! Not only with the bank but with each other. Definitely an MUST purchase!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
