### 5/5 — Je ne m’en passe plus

*2026-05-28*

Bientôt 2-3 ans d’utilisation. Je suis fan. Simple et efficace. Les données sont enregistrés donc si on change d’appareils ça récupère tout. Un petit trucs que j’apprécierais ce serai une calculette intégrés qui permettrai d’ajouter/soustraire des montants directement sur le pavé numérique qui s’affiche lorsque l’on rentre une dépense ou un revenu. 

Je recommande !

### 5/5 — Sehr attraktiv und stabil

*2026-02-27*

Hallo, zufällig bin ich vor ca. 2 Jahren auf diese App gestoßen um mir einen schnellen Überblick über meine Ausgaben zu verschaffen.
DAS hat diese wirklich sehr gut und unkompliziert erledigt.
Klar, es gibt da noch die eine oder andere Idee etwas zu verändern. Aber: jede Idee wird vom Entwickler freundlich begrüßt und auch umgesetzt, sofern es für diese App förderlich ist. Danke an den Entwickler!
Ich kann die App wirklich empfehlen, da sie sehr einfach zu bedienen ist. Und wie erwähnt, der Entwickler ist offen für neue Ideen und reagiert sehr schnell. 
Meine absolute Empfehlung! Und, ich habe im ein oder anderen Bereich tatsächlich etwas sparen können 😊

**Developer response:** Hallo Nomen E,

danke dir! Das freut mich wirklich sehr — Feedback und Ideen aus der Community sind mir wichtig, das macht die App besser. Melde dich jederzeit gerne wieder 😊

Viele Grüße
Timo

### 2/5 — Expense+ spending app

*2026-01-25, version 2.6.0*

Great app. Easy to use but the best is if you have any issue the owner will help you, to solve it.

### 5/5 — Beeindruckend gut

*2026-01-21*

Ich suchte eine App, die übersichtlich und einfach zu bedienen ist und in die ich Einnahmen und Ausgaben nicht nur (auch von Unterwegs) leicht eintragen, sondern auch jeweils konkret bezeichnen kann. Ich habe den Pro-Status gebucht und bin über diese Entscheidung sehr froh. Dank der klugen Programmierung und exzellenten Übersichtlichkeit kann ich sie auch als Budgetplanung verwenden, indem ich regelmäßig wiederkehrende und zu erwartende Einnahmen und Ausgaben für Folgemonate festlegen kann. Dank der Cloud-Funktion funktioniert die App auf iPhone und iPad gleichermaßen gut. Was soll ich sagen: diese App überzeugt.

Nachtrag: Die Kommunikation mit dir, Timo, ist vorbildlich.

**Developer response:** Hallo UCordes,

danke dir — das ist ein tolles Feedback! Freut mich sehr, dass die Funktionen der App für dich so gut zusammenspielen. Melde dich gern jederzeit wieder.

Viele Grüße
Timo

### 5/5 — Excellent…

*2026-01-03*

Simple, intuitif et pas de design ou fioritures inutiles mais je pense sincèrement que la possibilité d’ajouter une photo de notre ticket de caisse serait un vrai plus !

**Developer response:** Hallo Martocchino,

merci pour ton retour ! L'idée d'ajouter des photos ou des reçus est vraiment intéressante, je la retiens volontiers. Je ne peux cependant pas encore promettre si ni quand je l'implémenterai.

Cordialement !
Timo

### 5/5 — Facile et complète.

*2025-12-09*

Top!

**Developer response:** Bonjour SabeebeeZ,

merci beaucoup !

Bien à vous
Timo
