Misleading

Incredibly misleading doesn’t factor in tax at all when calculating time spent to earn that money. Also doesn’t seem to actually understand tax makes a lot of assumptions which makes this useless unfortunately

Seemingly good budgeting function but super buggy

Update request: Option to close window when deciding if worth it

I really like the app. But sometimes I just wanna see how much something could grow to if I don’t buy. Just curiosity, like should I budget today’s meal at this price or cheaper and what it could grow towards in the future. But there’s only options to buy or not buy, counting towards money spent or money saved.
I would like an option to click out of the window, like a small x button on top right.
(Same for after choosing unsure option. But more so for the initial decision)
Thanks for the app though.

Thanks for the feedback! You can actually close the Worth It Analyzer without choosing Buy or Don’t Buy. Just tap anywhere outside the white box and it’ll close. We agree that’s not super obvious though, so we really appreciate the suggestion!

Don’t know how I like it

I’m a kid and it won’t let me subtract from the random price
And don’t like that

Not worth it

You have to buy the subscription to be able to add any income and expenses so the app is pointless without the subscription

Sorry for the frustration, full budgeting features like adding income and expenses do require a subscription, but there are still free tools in the app: the Worth It screen, daily shake challenges, envelope savings challenge, and Shop Block. You can also track purchases for free from the Worth It screen by tapping “Buy” and choosing a category. We do our best to keep the subscription affordable while still supporting the work needed to keep building and improving BuyBye. Appreciate the feedback!

I recommend but as a kid not so much

This is a rlly good app and I like saving but there is no option for like making 0 money cuz I’m a kid and think they should make some changes and some way to help make money or something like giving tasks or giving people the option to put tasks on the app so other can make money. But I am just a kid and I know getting one 1 star needs 12 five stars to make it up so I will give you the review everyone wants. Hope this helps! (Sorry if I didn’t make the help this app has given me more specific)

Hi Nikki, Thank you so much for the thoughtful review, this is really helpful! You’re totally right that the “work time” calculator works best when someone has hourly or salary income. For now, if someone earns allowance or chore money, they can use that as their income to still compare purchases. But we’re also thinking about ways to make BuyBye more useful for students and people who don’t have regular income yet. Really appreciate you taking the time to share this!

Love it!!!🥰❤️🥰

I really like this app! It helps me to track my spending but also puts into perspective my spending and what I’m spending on! It/ really been helping me reach my goals!

Thanks for the kind words! I'm so glad BuyBye is helping you track your spending and stay focused on your goals. Hearing that it's helping put purchases into perspective is exactly what I hoped it would do. Thanks for taking the time to leave a review!

On top of my finances

I’ve put off budgeting for so long but actually tracking everything coming in and out has really made all the difference. The extra of seeing the price of things in time and what they could be if invested instead also keeps me from buying stupid stuff

Thanks for the note! You can now use the Worth It analyzer, to see how much time items cost, for free without a subscription 🙂

良いアプリ

このアプリを使って得られる金銭感覚はお金には代え難いくらい大切だと思う。この出費は大体何時間分の労働に値するのか？という感覚・思考の癖をつけられるのは嬉しい。
長く使いたいから、買い切りプランを提供してほしいな！

Save $30 a year by NOT subscribing

I saved an hour of work every year by not subscribing to buybye, a glorified fancy calculator.

Fair enough 😅 we just made the Worth It analyzer completely free to use.

Ridiculous

The irony having to pay for an app that is supposed to help you “track” and “save” a few bucks..

Don’t even bother downloading this app

An app to save money. That costs money.

This is £30 billed annually, for a calculator that you can have ready to go in your iOS notes app. You only get a two day trial, and the developer only offers their free website as an alternative, which isn’t the same. Save your money, spend 2 minutes writing a list and use your iOS’ notes app to do these calculations yourself.

“Spend money to save money”

A paid subscription to help you save money? Are we serious here bro? Stupidest thing I have ever heard of. Use your brain instead of paying an ai to do it for you
