### 5/5 — Enfim um que me atendeu

*2026-08-10*

Agradável de se ver; simples de usar e enfim, deixou fácil a maneira de registrar e controlar.  Basta o tempo de vc configurar do seu jeito.  Para mim, só faz falta poder compartilhar com a família para facilitar com o que cada um gasta mas, só de partilhar por Excel, já resolve alguma coisa

### 4/5 — Bom

*2026-08-05*

Aplicativo dinâmico e prático

**Developer response:** Muito obrigado pela sua avaliação. Ficamos muito felizes em saber que o aplicativo é prático e dinâmico para você. Continuaremos melhorando para que fique cada vez mais fácil de usar. Obrigado por usar o aplicativo.

### 5/5 — 🆒 cool 🆒

*2026-08-01, version 5.2.1*

Ice water ice

### 5/5 — App 10 điểm

*2026-07-13, version 5.2.1*

Nhờ app mà mình lấy lại được số tiền ck nhầm. Vì ghi chi tiêu nên nhớ ra ng chuyển nhầm là ai. Quá tuyệt vời app 10 điểm

### 4/5 — Need Split Expense Categories

*2026-07-09, version 5.2.0*

Very easy to use.  But I need a feature that allows one to split categories:
For example....
At one store: Paid $30($20 cash & $10 credit card) for expense categories:  $10 groceries, $8 cosmetics, $10.50 gift, and $1.50 taxes

### 5/5 — Compartilhar planilha

*2026-07-03*

Excelente app porém seria nota 5 estrelas se permitisse acrescentar uma pessoa para fazer a co-gestão do orçamento. Nos mesmos moldes que fazemos nas planilhas do Excel e do Numbers, compartilhando a edição com a pessoa convidada. Fica essa dica !

**Developer response:** Muito obrigado pela avaliação e pela sugestão! A possibilidade de compartilhar a gestão do orçamento com outra pessoa é uma ideia valiosa, e vamos considerá-la como referência para melhorias futuras. Não podemos prometer uma data de implementação, mas agradecemos muito o seu feedback. Obrigado por usar nosso app!

### 5/5 — 愛用してます！

*2026-06-16*

シンプルでめっちゃ使い易いです。
個人的な理想を言わせていただきたいです。
今の状態がいい利用者様もいらっしゃると思うので、追加で設定できるようになればいいなと思う理想です。

『小カテゴリが設定できるようになればめちゃくちゃ嬉しいです。(円グラフも見れたら嬉しい)』
例えば、
大カテゴリを食費と設定
小カテゴリに外食・コンビニ・スーパー
とか自由に決められたら嬉しいです。
そして、基準色は大カテゴリと同じ色で、小カテゴリも他の色に設定できるようにしてくれるとさらに嬉しいです。
例えば、
大カテゴリ→水色
スーパー→節約できてるので基準色のまま水色
コンビニ・外食→減らせるお金として基準色の水色から赤色に変更
みたいな感じです。
さらに大項目をタップしたら小項目のグラフが見れる(赤色がどれくらいをしめているのか...)、とか。

あとは、カップルで共有できるものを一時期使っていましたが、それは結局使いづらくてまたこっちに戻ってきたのですが、カップルで共有できる機能はあったらすごく優秀だなとは思います。
なので、個人とは分けて、2人で使ったお金の家計簿だけ共有できるとかあると、もう個人的に完璧です...😭

**Developer response:** ご愛用いただきありがとうございます。シンプルで使いやすいと言っていただけて、大変うれしく思います。

小カテゴリや、小カテゴリごとの色分け・円グラフ表示について、具体的なご提案をありがとうございます。現在はサブカテゴリー機能はございませんが、「食費（外食）」「食費（スーパー）」のようにカテゴリーを分け、色や並び順を近くすることで、近い形で管理できます。

また、カップルやご家族で共有できる機能についても、よくいただくご要望の一つです。より便利に家計管理できるよう、今後の機能改善の参考にさせていただきます。貴重なご意見をありがとうございます。

### 5/5 — Ótimo app

*2026-06-10*

Recomendo muito. Fácil de usar.

**Developer response:** Obrigado pelo seu feedback, cleidersom! Ficamos muito felizes que você recomenda o app e o acha fácil de usar. Agradecemos muito.

### 4/5 — Falta uma aba específica para cartão de crédito

*2026-06-03*

Poderia ter uma aba específica para cartão de crédito e poder especificar os gastos dentro dessa aba

**Developer response:** Obrigado pelo seu comentário e pela sugestão.
Entendemos que uma aba específica para cartão de crédito poderia tornar o controle dos gastos mais prático. No momento, o app não possui uma aba exclusiva para cartão, mas seu feedback é muito valioso e será considerado nas próximas melhorias.
Agradecemos por nos ajudar a tornar o app mais fácil de usar.

### 5/5 — Super App

*2026-05-31*

Habe extra bezahlt um App mit iPhone und iPad zu verbinden. Leider funktioniert es nicht

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback, Murmel76. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass die Verbindung zwischen iPhone und iPad nicht funktioniert. Bitte kontaktieren Sie unseren Support mit Details zur Konfiguration und wir helfen Ihnen gerne weiter.
