### 3/5 — A good start

*2019-01-07, version 12.1*

Overall I like this app and I use it often. It makes it feel manageable to get out of debt completely. One request: show me which payments I’ve already made. I often forget whether or not I marked the “make payment” button for that month. I use it to manage both mine and my husband’s debts, and I don’t have access to his accounts to look up what the current balance is. I do that for my own, although it’s annoying to have to keep logging into the accounts separately to check the balances against what this app says. Just throw a “payment history” feature into this app and I would give it more stars.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. We will consider this for future versions

### 3/5 — Password Issue

*2017-11-29, version 9.0*

This is a nice, user friendly program to run debt scenarios on.  However, at least for me, there appears to be a problem with the password function on the latest program release.  I set up a password and then when I try to get back into the program  (using the correct password) it does not recognize the password.

**Developer response:** The password features works; However, sometimes mistakes are made when users create the password.  Email us at support@dubit.net and we will help you get past the password screen.

### 1/5 — Stay away

*2017-06-07, version 9.0*

This app is no longer being updated or fix, they are just collecting money without any new input or updates, wasted my money on it and ITunes does nothing to remove apps that are no longer working or bug fixed, shame on ITunes, I will buy from them(ITunes) again

**Developer response:** This app has been maintained since 2009.  It is the original Debt Snowball app and was featured by Apple.  Our team fixes bugs immediately (look at the version history).  If you feel you have found a bug that we don't know about please contact us ASAP (support@dubit.net).  We have over 75k downloads and no issues have been reported.

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2017-05-02, version 9.0*

I bought the app, now every time I try to enter anything the app closes out. I've rebooted and tried doing it all over. Nothing. Waisted my money.

### 1/5 — Crashes - lost data - waste of $

*2016-11-18, version 9.0*

I spent hours getting all the data and entering it into the app, only to have the app crash and all my data was lost. Waste of money. I am requesting a refund!

**Developer response:** Our team fixes bugs immediately (look at the version history). If you feel you have found a bug that we don't know about please contact us ASAP (support@dubit.net) so we can fix it

### 3/5 — Like the app but hate the glitch!

*2016-10-13, version 9.0*

The app is a great tool but if you make too many edits it glitches out on the payment plan. Throws the payment schedule off and starts plugging in payment amounts from other accounts. Need to be able to run different scenarios without the numbers getting skewed.

**Developer response:** Please give us details on the inaccuracy with this app (support@dubit.net).  We have sold 75k apps since 2009 and are unaware of any glitches in the payment plan.

### 3/5 — Cool

*2016-05-12, version 9.0*

I like it.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2016-04-28, version 9.0*

Not as functional as it could be, wish there was something that could keep track of when payments were made and how much each payment was. The pay off plan is hard to read, some colorful charts or graphs would be better! ;-) also it said it would notify me one day before a payment was due I have yet to receive any notifications.

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2016-04-09, version 9.0*

I was great to use til I went back to see if I paid the bill already for the month. There is no indication or payment date made when you log in you made a payment. The only thing it will do is drop down the balance. Everything else was easy to use but I found another one that had everything I needed and it was only .99 cents.

**Developer response:** Simply click the "make payment" button and the payments will automatically update

### 4/5 — Very helpful

*2016-03-17, version 9.0*

Haven't used it for too long but it's very helpful. Helps track and map your progress.

### 4/5 — Great, but need support

*2016-02-20, version 9.0*

I like the app so far. I just wish I could get help. I would love to see a notes section for each account.

**Developer response:** Contact us at support@dubit.net for any questions you may have.

### 4/5 — Ramsey copy?

*2016-02-18, version 9.0*

A Dave Ramsey ripoff, but with good intentions.

### 1/5 — Needs an update ... crashes

*2020-09-30, version 12.1*

Cannot even open the app

### 1/5 — Poor App Quality and Maintenance

*2020-02-20, version 12.1*

Just spent $2.99 to purchase and download app on Feb 19, 2020. App won’t open. Keeps crashing.

### 1/5 — Not working on my iPhone 11

*2020-01-10, version 12.1*

Not working

### 1/5 — App is dead

*2019-11-10, version 12.1*

Last update was 10 months ago

### 1/5 — Needs update.

*2019-10-29, version 12.1*

Won’t open after last Apple update. Keeps crashing.

### 1/5 — Used to love it

*2019-07-30, version 12.1*

This used to be a great app.  For some reason it now crashes every time I open it.  This has been goin on for a year.  I’ve tried deleting it and downloading it again but it still doesn’t work.  Please fix this.

### 1/5 — Debt snowball app

*2019-06-06, version 12.1*

Bought the app. Loaded all the information in. The next day when I tried to open the app it kept on crashing. Deleted and redownloaded. Same result.

### 1/5 — Can’t open app

*2019-04-29, version 12.1*

For some reason when I click on the app it opens then closes.  It was working but now it’s doing g it again. Though I paid for it, now I’m looking to buy another cause the problem still persists.

### 1/5 — Password issues

*2018-02-27, version 9.0*

I spent quite a bit of time inputting all my debt info.  Then I added a password.  It's the same 4 number password I use on things such as this and now the app won't let me in.  It freezes on the first tab and won't accept my password on the other ones.  Very disappointed!!!

### 1/5 — Good start, but I make weekly payments

*2017-08-18, version 9.0*

Edit: Editing this review and dropping a star due to extremely slow response from developer. It took them 10 months to respond to my request!!!

Dropping another star because I *still* never received any notification for when payment was due (even though I checked the box on the app). Dropping another star because they don't have a pay weekly option. 

*******************

So far, the app is decent. I like being able to see payoff dates. But the app seems to be lacking in two distinct ways for my purposes: 1) I checked the "notify me" feature to be notified before a payment is due. I have not received any notifications. 2) A feature that would be very valuable for me (and I'm sure many others) is the option to make multiple payments in a month. I pay weekly to reduce my interest, but can find no way to calculate using that option. Instead, I have to recalculate that every month, which is too time consuming. Make those two changes and this would be a 5 star app.

**Developer response:** Will will consider adding weekly payment options to this app.  Right now it's only monthly payments... Sorry

### 5/5 — Good App

*2017-04-09, version 9.0*

Nice and easy for use

### 5/5 — Great App

*2016-06-06, version 9.0*

Really lets you customize how you are going to attack your debt, and it keeps you on target.

### 5/5 — Great update!!!

*2016-03-24, version 9.0*

This app is a great way to keep track of debt and to determine which card to pay off first. I am nearly debt free thanks to this app and the snowball method!!  The only thing that would make it better is if it linked up to my accounts and updated automatically.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-03-20, version 9.0*

Helps show me advantage of making higher payments.  Shows how quickly I can pay off bills.

### 5/5 — Password

*2016-02-14, version 9.0*

Password feature is great

### 5/5 — Great and easy to use

*2016-02-14, version 9.0*

I got this app when it was free and have found it very useful. It is keeping me on track on my way to living debt free!

### 5/5 — A really nice tool!

*2016-02-11, version 9.0*

Well, this app is like a dave ramsey idea. I like the feature where it tells you when to pay off your debt. Really liking this app!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2015-04-17, version 8.2.1*

In an age where customer service in app support is often hard to obtain, Matt goes above and beyond excellent every time.  This app works and provides meaningful visual proof of how the debt snowball saving works for anyone who follows the path.  When a cloud download challenge due to poor internet caused issues, Matt was able to walk me through it, identify the cause and corrective actions quickly closing the issue completely.  Thank you!

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2014-11-11, version 8.2*

I love debt snowball.  It really helps see the big picture so you can stay on track. If I could make some change:  Be able to see all of your debt snowball on one page instead of having to scroll through each one... (I realize that using this on your iPhone would make that impossible to see without magnifying the screen but it would be nice to have that option.) Also be able to pay off bills in custom order.  Otherwise it's totally useful without this but it would make it even better.

### 5/5 — Great application!

*2014-10-21, version 8.2*

I came across this app last week and it gave me all the motivation I needed to fix my credit. I knew I needed to pay of my debts to get started. Luckily for me, I do not have a mortgage! The app is great for listing and keeping track of what you owe.  I have started with the smallest debt and will work my way up to the biggest and last. The app offers different methods to use, but I prefer to start at the bottom. I highly recommend this app for all!
