Suddenly got my updated balance wayyy off!

This was was pretty good and the only thing that seemed to work for us but it suddenly was getting my updated balance so off and that was concerning because I was going by this app way more than my bank app because of pending purchases and bills and whatnot.

Needs improvement

I have been using this app for a few months and appreciate what it has to offer. The desktop version is better. My main complaint is that the app hides bills that are due today and tomorrow. Once today passes, you are able to see the bills and the same for the next day. It is annoying.

Running Ledger Balance

Been using this app for years and love it, but definitely needs a feature that allows you to see a running ledger balance under the normal ledger balance like credit cards do. That would be a huge help, especially when you’re entering things in the ledger way in advance

Great overall with some tweaks

I’ve used this for many years now and it’s simple, clean, and does exactly what you need. Quick comment: what happened to the balances info at the top of the Transactions page? It’s annoying to go back to check if everything is cleared properly instead of seeing it at the top as before. Keep up the great work!

Works for me

I’ve been using this app for 2 years now and so far it’s been pretty good. Syncs pretty well between the online version and our phones. I do wish it was a bit more intuitive and they could make the sections a bit bigger on the online version. It would also be nice if you could add categories easier and add a note section.

Simple but feature packed

Simple app with all the feature you need and easy to use interface. Love that it is available on both iOS and Android since I use both.

Live the update

This newest update is great. I love it. I love where the adding transaction has been put in the transaction clear layout. Can’t wait to see when the decimal point is finally fixed and usable. Thank you for all you do.

Bug Report

Each entry is now duplicated.

The best

I don’t know how this app doesn’t have 5-stars. I have been using this (along with the web app) for a very long time and have found nothing better

Update is Terrible

My husband and I have used this app for several years. Every single update makes it harder to use and a worse version than before.

This newest update is a giant pain. I want to go into the account I’m taking from. This update makes you put in transactions on the main page.

If they don’t quit changing it I am finding something new.

simple check register

i’m able to copy and paste amounts which works really well for me, i’ve noticed most other apps don’t let you do that. They also have a Web app.

Failure

I’ve been using this app for years but all of a sudden all the math is completely wrong. This is massively unhelpful and whatever’s wrong needs to be fixed!

Where is the envelope gadget!?

They really need to add the envelope budgets gadget to the app! It doesn’t make sense that it isn’t on it already!

Transactions missing going back three months

It worked fine for a long time, but now I’m trying to balance my checkbook and transactions that I entered and it cleared months ago are completely gone. The accounts are in complete disarray. At this point I’m better off downloading a better app rather than trying to rebuild everything that they’ve screwed up.

Erratic

Often doesn’t show me the same categories as I can see through a browser. Inexplicable missing data. I have been using this for years but it is frustrating on an iPhone. Used to work well on an android.

Dark mode

Is it possible to get dark mode please

Reliable

Been using this for a few years, and it’s the simplest app to use to track all my purchases. Very reliable as the devs seem to keep up with updates, compared to other tracking apps that fall to the wayside. (Ex: other apps “last update 2y ago” lol). Thanks for the hard work!

Is there any chance we get a dark mode in the app?

Use quicken

Too complicated for a consumer user. If you want an accounting program use quicken. It’s easier even for a consumer. They are trying to sound smart and not using basic language coupled with the fact all their help is not current with user interface ( removed the term Jive in 2011? But all documentation still refers to jive instead of Clear?) Disappointing

Totally awesome

This was exactly what i needed. It syncs PERFECTLY on ios and desktop. No issues. No idea what the three star complaint is. Not valid. I love this and its helped me a ton. I use the free version.

App is Disappointing

I just signed up and set up the website version which is not as user friendly as most online budget sites but works for what I need it to do. The app however, does not have any of the same features you find online.
