### 4/5 — Cookie tracking app

*2025-03-31, version 5.2.3*

This app is great at tracking inventory, recording orders. And a lifesaver when dividing up booth sales. Note it does not talk to GS software like digital cookie or Smart Cookies. But for troop leveling tracking it’s awesome to be able to see live levels of inventory. 
My only complaint about the app is that it does not allow families to make transfers girl to girl, only the TCM is able to initiate transfers. If this issue could be corrected by next season, this app would be five stars!

### 3/5 — Charged 3 times

*2023-01-04, version 5.0.10*

Downloaded the app this weekend.  Noticed today I’ve been charged 3 times for it.  Any idea how to get refunded for the other 2?

### 4/5 — Needs new update

*2022-02-01, version 5.0.7*

Great app but needs to update the new cookie Adventureful.

### 2/5 — Was hopeful

*2021-01-15, version 5.0.4*

Paid $1.99 for a personal account.
The reports are useless as they do not update when you put in a sale - so I still have to keep track myself. I do like that I can at least input sales to save for later but I could just as easily use my free notes app for that.

### 4/5 — Helpful but...

*2020-10-23, version 4.0.5*

This app was extremely helpful for this first time GS Mom.  The inventory function was great.  I paid for the family account. 

I just wish it could sync with the apps the GS’s use.

### 5/5 — The Best

*2020-03-02, version 4.0.5*

I don’t think I’ve ever been more obsessed with an app before... we’ve sold nearly 2,000 boxes of cookies (our family personally) which is more than the entire 15-girl troop combined... we honestly couldn’t have & wouldn’t have been able to accomplish that without this app.  It has made cookie season super fun & extremely manageable.  This app is/ was worth every penny (and so much more).  I would strongly recommend it!  Everyone I know who’s tried it so far has absolutely loved using it.  It’s super user friendly and makes logging & organizing orders, booths, & pickups surprisingly fun & super easy.   Can’t say enough good things!! Plus the customer service was outstanding, amazingly helpful, personable, & attentive... please give this fantastic app a try for your next Girl Scout cookie season!

### 4/5 — Love this for cookies!

*2020-02-22, version 4.0.5*

This app is great and very cost effective. It is $6 to use the app for the troop but it is WORTH IT! I would love to see (and also pay for) a meeting/troop management app that is similar and works in tandem with the cookie management app. I will use this again next year for sure!

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2020-02-15, version 4.0.5*

So helpful for keeping track of cookie sales, inventory, transfers, etc. Great communication from developer when I had trouble opening the app during peak cookie sales, he got me up and running quickly and easily. Thank you!

### 2/5 — Not helpful

*2020-02-01, version 4.0.5*

Prices are wrong for toffee tasting and s’mores. Selected family app. Still had to use troop format. Lots of trial and error, user friendly.

### 4/5 — Great!!!

*2019-02-27, version 4.0.5*

Update: After working with the app for a little bit now, I am still impressed with it. It has really saved me this year. Like I said before the SmartCookies app was revamped for this year and, to me, has been 3 steps backward. Two  reasons, tho, why I can’t give this app 5 stars 
1. the fact that I had to pay $6 for the app and 
2. The reports are virtually useless. The only cookie I can get numbers on is the s’mores cookie and then there’s the order list, it doesn’t pull any info up at all. Would love for the reports to be better and have the ability to export to excel. 

I found it by looking at some posts and comments made on a Facebook group page about Girl Scout Cookies. This app is great. After getting it set up, I can’t believe I have done Cookies this long and not discovered the app before. I love the reports that I can do. I just wish I could export the reports to excel, someway. Shoot, there may be a way and I just haven’t found it yet. Who knows! But it is great. Would love for it to be integrated with smart cookies though. I’m not happy with their app right now. 

My only negative is the fact that I had to pay $6 for the thing but it was worth my money.

### 5/5 — Total Lifesaver!!!

*2019-01-31, version 4.0.5*

Last year’s cookie season was my first and I didn’t know about this app then. It was a hot mess! 

Then I heard about this app in a cookie mom’s Facebook app and decided to give it a shot. Best decision ever! It keeps all my inventory counts, orders, transfers, and money received straight. 

Parents have really appreciated having email receipts for cookie and cash exchanges. It’s great for me to be able to get phone out and instantly know all my daughter’s customer’s orders and inventory on hand. 

I almost screwed everything up by deleting my own admin account in the app, but I sent an email to the support email address and they fixed it WITHIN SECONDS!! 

Even if you’re not the troop cookie manager, as a Girl Scout parent, this app will help you so much. I can’t recommend it enough!!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2019-01-15, version 4.0.5*

I love this app. It has helped me keep my sanity during cookie season for the past few years!  Plus the developer is super helpful and responds quickly when I have questions!!!  Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great app - up to date and flexible, really useful

*2018-12-16, version 4.0.3*

This is a great app. It’s up to date with the cookie types and how cookie sales are run and flexible in how it can be used. It’s really useful for both record keeping at home and entering on the go information. And the satay can be exported with simple emails. Very very useful!  Definitely get it!

And when I got stuck on something and emailed a grumpy grouchy complaint, I got a super polite, helpful email back that sent me to the super helpful how to videos that told me how to do what I thought the app couldn’t do (which turned out to be trivially easy). I was embarrassed at my own grumpy email. So kuddos and thanks for the polite and helpful email correcting me and helping me figure it out!

### 5/5 — WOW!!!

*2018-02-04, version 3.2.1*

I can’t get over this app!! As a first year troop and wide-eyed troop leader with an ambitious Girl Scout, I thought I was going to drown in papers and spreadsheets! You’ve saved my cookie year! My co-leader is amazing!!! She found this app and invited me to use it. Seriously, wow! Love love love!!!

### 2/5 — Not very user friendly

*2018-02-01, version 3.2.1*

I was hoping to find something my whole troop could use but I find editing the inventory very confusing and I think my parents would too. 5.99 is way too much for this app.

### 1/5 — Need help

*2025-05-02, version 5.2.3*

I love the app but now it’s not working. I’ve tried resetting my password but I don’t get the link. I’ve deleted and reinstalled, nothing. I’ve tried contacting the developer, nothing. Please help.

### 1/5 — App not working and developer’s site down

*2025-01-05, version 5.2.3*

I purchased this app and entered information.  Now the app is not working and the developer’s website is down and there is no way to reach them.  The app states, “An error occurred fetching your information from the server.  Please check your internet connection and try again.”  It has been like this for a couple of hours and my internet connection is fine.  Makes me wonder are they phishing?  How do we reach the developer to let him know his site is down and the app doesn’t work??

### 1/5 — Not free

*2021-03-10, version 5.0.5*

Very misleading. Needs to be clearer that it is not free to use, only free to download.

### 1/5 — No Rave

*2021-02-15, version 5.0.5*

With all the “great” reviews I bought this app before I could even see if it was good for just a family. Which it is not! It is great for a troop and terrible options for a family. Wish I could get a refund and delete all of my info. I can not re-edit some things, it will not let me delete my account all together. Very frustrating...

### 1/5 — Not free!

*2020-02-13, version 4.0.5*

This app is listed on the App Store for free but you cannot get in without paying $1.99 for parent use or $5.99 for troop use. That is NOT free!

### 1/5 — Not the Girl Scout version

*2018-01-06, version 3.2.0*

No thank you.

### 1/5 — Nice idea but...

*2017-03-26, version 2.4.1*

I loved the idea of this app, so much that I spent the $6 for my troop. Our council does pre-orders, so this app doesn't work for that, I never got the individual users to be able to sign in at all, and when I forgot my password, the forgot password link never sent an email. Don't bother with this app.

### 1/5 — Not satisfied!

*2017-02-02, version 2.3.0*

I'm not liking this app, I purchased the single family and I can't get anything to work.

### 1/5 — Poor App

*2016-12-31, version 2.1.0*

Not worth an in-app purchase. Basic tracking.

### 1/5 — Never Used Because Developer Creeped Me

*2016-01-11, version 1.0.3*

I downloaded this app today, excited to better keep up with my troop sales. I went to create a login and the developer said to send him email to make login. Then he turned me down without asking if I was a cookie mom or leader. I replied with info that he asked for to help him realize I was using it for my troop. He wanted address, phone number, cookies, number of cookies, etc. then. He turned me down and said it was for troops. I already told him I was the leader. Then, he said he needed my daughter's name. Nope! Red flags!!! Do not use! I have never had to give that info for an app.

### 5/5 — Cookie Tracking Lifesaver

*2026-02-19, version 5.2.3*

This app has completely helped us survive 3 cookie seasons so far. Very easy to use for tracking inventory and moving boxes between Scouts. Reports help summarize the season so that you can upload all data into Smart Cookies at the end of season. Thank you!!

### 5/5 — 1000% worth it!

*2024-04-08, version 5.2.3*

I do not buy apps, but after struggling with cookie season and balancing booths and things not balancing, I decided to try this app. It’s AMAZING.  My full troop hasn’t completely converted but as the TCM this has been my life saver at cookie booth inventory tracking.

### 5/5 — We love this app

*2023-02-12, version 5.0.12*

The app comes in handy when out and about selling cookies and at booths. I’m so glad we can do a troop account for the booths. But we need to have email optional, not all our customers have an email and we can’t bypass it. It would be a lot easier with a credit card swipe.

### 5/5 — Amazing app and customer service

*2023-02-06*

I reached out to the app developer about a question I had and he responded back within 12 hours.  This app has already made managing my daughter’s inventory so simple, I can easily see what we have in stock as we’re walking around the neighborhood.  This is our first year and I feel like we are so efficient!  GSA of NA you really should partner with the app developer on this.  It’s absolutely amazing!

### 5/5 — Saves me

*2022-02-09, version 5.0.9*

This is my third season using this app and I happily pay $6 each season because it is worth every single penny. I am cookie manager to 2 troops and I can seamlessly switch between the 2 troops. I also use it to keep track of both of my daughters personal orders. The ABC app is so clunky and doesn’t make my life easier like this app does. I just input everything I need to into ABC at the end of the season from all the info I have stored here. Trust me it will save your life and keep you organized during this hectic time!

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2022-02-08, version 5.0.9*

This is my 5th year using the app and the updates keep getting better. I wish the app “talked” to Digital Cookie, but the benefits are amazing for inventory management and troop management.

### 5/5 — Great Girl Scout Cookie App

*2022-02-07, version 5.0.9*

Our troop of 12+ girls has used this app for 6 years now. We all love it and it is so simple and intuitive the girls can mostly use it by themselves to track orders and booths. They are now also using the app to reconcile cash, Square purchases and boxes of inventory after each booth with minimal adult help. 

As a troop leader, I use it to track troop inventory, personal inventory/payments for each girl, as well as troop and MySale booths.  The integration with Square is also awesome. The app even tracks customer history over time (if the data is entered), so girls can contact former customers. I am so confident in the app that I only enter 1 summary transaction into eBudde for each girl to close the season - a massive time saver! 

If there are any minor bugs in a new app version, the developer usually responds within hours with an update.  As new girls are added to the troop, the YouTube videos are very helpful and gets everyone trained very quickly. 

I truly appreciate all of the hard work that has been put into this app over the years.  There is simply no better way to manage your cookie season!

### 5/5 — 6th Year Using Cookie Management!

*2022-01-24, version 5.0.7*

This is my 6th year using this app and I can honestly say it is worth every penny each year! The developer has been incredibly helpful with answering my questions and has even implemented some of my ideas!  From what I understand, he is a dad of a Girl Scout and saw his wife (who was a leader to a troop of up to 30 girls and cookie mom) struggling with keeping cookie season organized, so he created an app to help her out!   All I can say is, without this app, I’d be totally lost!!   My daughter has the app on her phone and can take orders at any time.  It’s so great that i can track her progress as she takes orders.  I love this app and will use it every single year until she finishes with Girl Scouts.

### 5/5 — Life Saving App!

*2022-01-22, version 5.0.5*

Love this App! Such a life saver trying to keep track of online, in-person, booth etc for my Girl Scout!

### 5/5 — This app is a lifesaver!!!

*2021-01-22, version 5.0.5*

This is the best Girl Scout Cookie app!  I have used it for 5 years, the last 4 as a TCM.  I appreciate the apps ability to track booth sales, individual sales and each girls progress.  I also appreciate that the developer is so responsive and helpful.  He has even taken suggestions I’ve made and incorporated them into the app which is awesome!   I don’t think there is a better app for tracking Girl Scout cookie sales out there and it is worth every penny!
