Updated review: Free version - missing data *resolved*
I reported the bug and the team is super responsive and already put a fix in!
This will be my go to for recording deductions for 2026! Better than ITs Deductible 🙌🏻
Original review:
Entry is simple and the app does a great job estimating values and totaling donations.
However, I entered 9 categories (30–40 items total) and it only saved 3. When I exported to TurboTax, the list was still incomplete.
If this is a limitation of the free version, it’s not disclosed. Frustrating to lose data after taking the time to enter everything.
Response from developer
Hi Laura, sorry you lost data - this was not a free-tier limit (there are no caps on donations or items). On iPhone, the numeric keyboard covered the "Add Items to Cart" button, so it was easy to leave the screen thinking your entries were saved when they weren't. We shipped a fix (version 1.19.2) the same day we received your feedback — the text field is now a +/− stepper that keeps the Add button visible. Responding quickly to user feedback is something we pride ourselves on. Thank you for the clear report; your feedback makes DeductIt better. If the fix works for you, we'd be grateful if you'd update your review.
This is it !!
Response from developer
This review made our week — thank you. Honestly, we were pretty disappointed with the state of TurboTax import tooling out there, so we poured a lot of engineering effort into the automated TurboTax Desktop entry flow. Hearing it worked smoothly and actually saved you time is exactly what we were hoping for. We added the lifetime option for folks who (reasonably) dislike subscriptions — thank you for supporting DeductIt. We have big plans to keep improving the TurboTax integration and expanding to other tax software.
Great functionality
The functionality of DeductIt is as good if not better than the other apps that rely on text lookups. And DeductIt comes at a lower price.
While some of the other apps theoretically offer more features with AI, speech and/or photographic recognition, those features didn’t offer a time savings or were janky in practice. Not worth the extra cost.
The free tier works just fine but I found it helpful to pay the small cost to tie receipts to donations records.
Response from developer
Thank you — head-to-head feedback like this is the most useful kind. We deliberately kept the free tier fully functional for core tracking so people could decide on paid upgrades based on real value, not gated features. Glad the receipt-linking was worth the small upgrade for you.
Easy To Use
Response from developer
Thank you! Household sharing is great for families. Free-tier core plus a small upgrade for sharing and other premium features is exactly the model we were aiming for. Really appreciate the kind words.
