Need more themes

Great App! Super easy to use! Wish there were different color themes though. A bit more personalization to the appl would be great!

Awesome App

This app keeps me on task with my monthly bills. The app is easy to setup just the way I need to use it. I’m a fan!

Doesn’t work well with multiple devices on same Apple account…FIX This Please!!!

I have this app on my iPhone and on my iPad. The app doesn’t necessarily take the latest update depending on which device you’re looking at. If I leave my iPad off and not connected to the cloud, sometimes it takes old data and overwrites on iCloud. This needs to be fixed with some type of timestamp that makes sure the latest data is always uploaded to each device.

Best & Easy Bill App

I’ve been using this app for years. It’s easy to use and the customer service is amazing!

Chronicle has been helping me avoid late charges for over 16 years

TLDR: Best purchase - Gives me a laser focus on my bills, so that they’re never late! In 15+ years, only ONE but, and Mike was super responsive when I reported it! I checked, and I first purchased Chronicle back in 2010. I have ADHD, and I used to always have problems remembering which bills were due when, leading to late charges and frustration. Chronicle changed that. Now I make sure that I check Chronicle at every payday, and I haven't forgotten a bill in many years. It worked well when I was paid twice a month, it was a Godsend when the company changed to every two weeks (because the payments stopped "lining up" and I had to pay much closer attention), and it works great now (back to twice a month with a new job) when I have a number of bills that I only use occasionally. I make it a point to check EVERY bill from the biller's website, and if I have no balance I just submit a "0.00" and "Zero Balance" transaction with Chronicle. Then next month, I check it again. Mike has been excellent at customer support in the very few instances (four, one bug, one question, one beta issue, another question about the subscription model) where I needed to contact him. I would be devastated if this software were no longer available. It's one of the VERY few pieces of software where I have no issues at all paying a subscription price - it's absolutely worth it.

Was quite good but....

Seems to develop a glitch which I can't work out re my 3 monthly rates bill. Paid but keeps stating its overdue. After giving up to correct this I deleted my Rates bill and now no Raytes history is there.

The best financial app

I absolutely love this app and have been using it for two years. It’s simplifies my bills and adds them up. I love it

Literally the BEST

I’ve been using Chronicle for probably two years or so now and it’s been so useful. It’s an absolutely amazing simple app to help you keep track of your bills. I’ve tried all the big bill apps and this one is by far the simplest and no ads or garbage to nag you and make you annoyed. The single dev is also extremely nice and quick to answer a question that I had regarding an idea that he explained how to do without taking days to respond. I’ll be using this app forever. Thanks!

I payed now it won’t even open

Not impressed the app worked just fine but I wanted to at my income so I payed for pro right off the hop it started freezing up and crashing now it won’t even load. 🤨
Update the developer returned my email and walked me through how to fix this without losing my stuff. Very nice person 😊 good response and sound advice. I’m so glad because I really like this app 👍 I recommend it.

Chronicle Review

Before I started using Chronicle I kept a paper schedule! :-( It worked ok but I was not happy with it. I have been using Chronicle for several years now and think it is great!

No Trial Period

why would I commit to spending money on an app that doesn’t let you at least demo the features or have a trial period. you locked out the paid features but you can’t even see what they do in case you are interested in paying for this.

Best option for cheaper

Definitely the best option for cheaper. Competitors charge way too much but this is either free or low cost for extra features. I love that me and my husband can sync to the same calendar so we can both add and edit bills. The only complaint I have is that I wish we could add notes like “credit card/water/etc due date unknown” or “new bill (house repairs) starting soon but date unknown” or “check to make sure these subscriptions are canceled” so that we can remember to check on those then come back later and add it or take it off

Still the best bill reminder IMO. Any news about updates to modernize the UI and add AI?

Titles says it all. Still no other bill reminder app can replace it. The only thing that came close is one that doesn’t have macOS App.

Can you tell us if you are working on updating Chronicle with a newer looking UI. And adding Apple AI support.

Also, would be nice if it worked with YNAB. Like showing bill reminders in YNAB somehow. And marking bills paid when you enter the transaction in YNAB. I’m sure there’s other usages having these two work together.

Love this app

This app is really helpful its helping me manage all my bills and making sure I don’t miss any payment

Favorite App!

This app is SO helpful… I have many accounts to keep up with (both business and personal) and, without Chronicle, it would be much more difficult. I appreciate being able to link directly to bill payment sites, add calendar reminders, and post various notes to myself regarding each account etc. It’s a big help at tax time, also!

Money and Time saver

This app has saved my rear end so many times over the years!

Sharing

Love it but can't print it or share it with anyone, a holder of a POA for example.

Great App

It’s definitely my life saver!!!

Love this app!

Chronicle has been the main tool to manage my day to day finances for years now and it is both simple and powerful enough to do so.
The only feature that I think is missing is a way of producing reports: simple lists of payees, amounts, dates, frequency payments, history etc. That would make it absolutely perfect for me.
So please, please, pretty please 🙏😆…!

Won't delete old bills

I've tried dozens of times to delete bills I don't have anymore. They always pop right back in
