### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2023-02-25*

Spent time working out all my expenses to have it disappeared the next day.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry for the inconvenience. There was bug that must be fixed. This situation will never happen

### 1/5 — Unfortunate

*2022-10-09, version 1.0.1*

I wanted to use an app to track my expenses. But this app seems broken. All I can do is spin the little wheel. There’s no editing allowed, pressing the plus button does nothing whatsoever. You might as well rename this app to “useless wheel.” Because that was my experience.

### 3/5 — Change categories

*2026-01-02*

Needs the ability to change categories after it’s been set

### 3/5 — Why did u upgrade !!!

*2023-02-15, version 1.0.2*

I used to love this app. It was so simple and easy to use and a go to app every pay period. Why did u have to update this app 😖 it wasn’t broken! I miss the simplicity of it and being able to write my own expensive. Now I have to find a new one 🥹

### 3/5 — Umständliche Einnahmen

*2020-08-29*

Eigentlich genau das was ich gesucht habe, Finanzen zum eintragen des 50-30-20 Sparens. Leider kann man die Einnahmen die man hat nur sehr sehr umständlich mit Rädern und Mathematik eingeben. Man kann zum einen seine Einnahmen wenn man Pech hat nicht einmal ansatzweise genau eingeben (z.B. 2500) und auch das Hänfling wie man angeben kann, man muss sich überlegen welche der mathematischen Formeln kommt seinen Einnahmen am nächsten...

### 3/5 — Great concept, needs work

*2020-02-11, version 1.0*

For starters, the salary wheel just didn’t work for me as I have income from different sources and total is an odd amount. The graphic showing needs-wants-savings was ok. Just needs work but good starter

### 3/5 — It’s okay

*2019-12-27, version 1.0*

It’s an okay app. It would be great if they allowed you to enter a preferred amount of income of your choice instead of the option income they give you.

### 4/5 — Great app to budget

*2025-01-07, version 1.0.90*

I love the app and it has helped me budget my needs, wants, and savings. The only problem I have with it is that you can’t reset it to 0. I sometimes forget to add things to it. I wished that it could reset and you could restart.

### 4/5 — Bugs

*2024-08-25, version 1.0.87*

After paid the lifetime plan to unlock all features, can add some new category but there’s a bug inside is you can’t remove the old category, it will still stay on the list example like: remove the Entertainment and create a new category, after select the new category and return to home page, when you click to add new expenses, the Entertainment still right there

### 4/5 — Good but need work

*2023-12-15, version 1.0.8*

Compared to other money management apps this one is very simple and easy to use. Id like to see a more streamlined UI and maybe more options for the custom categories. Also the colors for my savings wheel are all the same, a bug maybe? Other than that the app is great keep up the good work

### 5/5 — Practical App

*2026-06-14, version 1.0.94*

The 50/30/20 method is a simple and effective way for anyone new to managing their finances. Best app for this method in my opinion, based on use for about a Year.

### 5/5 — Good App

*2025-01-29*

Super easy to use, doesn’t force you to purchase and exactly what i’ve been looking for to help keep my money in my home loan but still proportion it how needed. Only thing I would suggest is a way to change the ratio eg 60/20/20 or to even add more options 40/20/20/20. Thanks

### 5/5 — WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR

*2023-10-25, version 1.0.8*

this is exactly what i was looking for in an app, all the other apps were rly confusing but love it

### 4/5 — So helpful ! Thank you !

*2023-10-25, version 1.0.8*

This app has really helped me be more organized with my finances and salary. I am able to put my income and my husband to better use. We can see how our money is going towards the needs we need and the wants. More importantly the savings! I am a visual learner and seeing what I have in savings and what my goals can be in writing has changed so much for us! Thank you for this app ☺️

### 4/5 — Love the whole concept!

*2023-02-16, version 1.0.2*

I absolutely love the simplicity of this app. It’s very straight forward, easy to understand, and the upgrade made it look nicer as well. My only problem is when you are adding a new category, it won’t let you slide down to see all of the emojis. And when you search for an emoji, it sometimes won’t show up. For example, toilet paper “🧻” won’t show up. I try to type “toilet paper” and “tissue”. That’s my only problem.

### 4/5 — Sliding tab to enter the amount annoys me

*2020-07-12, version 1.0*

I love this app as a start out but the only thing that lacks for me is adjusting tab, instead of sliding across maybe you can enter the amount straight away via keyboard, because sliding can sometimes be inaccurate & it really tested my patience
