Thank you. ### 3/5 — Please answer questions *2019-03-23, version 2.25* Sir I have this app on my iphone and Ipad. I have questions about syncing expenses across devices. Unfortunately no one responding to my emails. What’s happening? Very disappointed. Please contact me or reply to my emails is appreciated. ### 4/5 — Nice and easy to use. Backup could be better *2014-11-06, version 2.22* I like the interface and that I can backup. However, it would be nice if it could be set to automatically backup daily. I have another app, Road Trip, to track fuel usage and it automatically backs up. I’m really going to need the backup when my phone dies, is destroyed, or lost and I may not have backed it up recently. ### 5/5 — Great expense and budget app! *2012-12-14, version 2.16* I love this app as I do not have to put bank account info in it. One suggestion to update with. It would be nice to Keep a running tab on the account that you use when you create an expense. So at a quick glance you know how much you have in that account while viewing your expenses or the month ### 5/5 — Great app with all the features I wanted and great price *2012-05-04, version 2.10* I previously used I Bear Money for the longest and I loved it but then long story short, I got a new computer, updated ipod software and would have had to buy that app again. The price is now twice as much so I starting looking for another budgeting app with similar features but more affordable. After some searching I came upon ExpenSense. ExpenSense is easily customizable and user friendly. I can change account names, add categores, add recurring income, expenses as well as transfers between accounts. It has a rollover budget feature which I Bear Money did not have. I hope they add more features in the future and continue to make this excellent product. ### 4/5 — Good, but takes some getting used to *2012-02-08, version 2.6* This has everything you need except for clear directions. But, if you look and read the FAQs you can figure it out. At first I thought I could only use the pre-loaded categories. Then when I went to the FAQ page, I found that you can add any number of categories, personalize/name them and sub-categorize. All you have to do is click on the "edit" function, then click on the "+" button on the upper left corner. Very simple, but you do have to do some research. Also, (for the reviewer who said there is not a balance shown) there is a running total of "net worth" if you just tap on the white account FLAG on the home page. The directions, definitely need some clarification, but its a good app. ### 5/5 — Great App *2012-01-15, version 2.6* Simple to use. Price is good for what it offers. This is exactly what I am looking for. An app to help me to quickly manage a few everyday expenses and stay within my budget. Gives you a snapshot of your ending balance for cash, account and credit card, after you enter your starting balance and transactions/expenses. You can conveniently customize the categories. ### 5/5 — Fabulous! Worth it! *2011-11-01, version 2.6* I used to use the spreadsheets on Numbers to track my expenses. That means I have to keep every receipt and remember all expenses I've made, and at the end of the day, enter the amount under the correct category. Now, I can enter as I go! It also let's me set a budget for different categories so I don't over-spend. I also love how it graphs everything for you. A truly handsome app! ### 4/5 — Love it *2011-10-29, version 2.6* I love this app. I love that it allows you: -to keep multiple accounts, -to move your money from one account to another, like in real life, -to personalize by choosing an icon for expense categories -to not only track money, but budget it too. -to choose the currency my money is in. There are only two reasons I give it four stars, and not five. 1. It would be great if I could keep my accounts in different currencies. Right now, they all have to remain in the same currency, and that is a bit limiting, as I travel often. I'd love to be able to switch between dollars and rubles and euros. 2. I love that I can view my recent transactions, but this feature would be even better if I can switch the order in witch I view them. To be able to toggle between category, amount or time would be great. ### 5/5 — Fabulous! *2011-10-19, version 2.6* I absolutely love this app! It's really changing my financial life! I've wanted to track my spending for years & the ease and elegance of this app is actually getting me to do it. It makes it fun! I also appreciate how flexible the app is. I am a freelancer. I can track multiple sources of income with ease. I can input individual jobs, whether I make $2 or $200. Also, being able to define my own categories & subcategories of expenses (& income sources) is a huge plus. I also appreciate that it doesn't require you to create budgets before being able to track spending, like some other apps do. I want to see what I'm already spending on things before deciding how much I want to budget for each category. Awesome app! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — (Used to be a) Great app *2021-11-25, version 2.26* Great app that serves my purpose perfectly as a checkbook ledger, but it appears to have been abandoned. Sad, as there is no other app of its kind (I’ve tried many) that even comes close. The only fault I can find is the lack of a few needy icons, mainly, a gas pump (for fuel, a glaring omission), pill bottle (for medications) and maybe an icon for insurance. Frustratingly, there are TOO many useless icons provided, such as a dolphin, panda, smiley faces (really?), arrows, a few too many tech-related and some that are simply too difficult to ascertain just exactly what they are, because they are so small and low-rez. What a wasted opportunity here, as far as icons. UPDATE: although I was elated that the app was just recently “updated” for iOS 14, my excitement was short-lived. This new version of 2.33 is bug-laden. New transactions do not display the updated balance. Only after I close the app or click on the “Recent” tab (and go back) does the correct balance then show. Also, the calculator does not display correctly. The bottom keys just barely appear, making tapping the correct keys a hit or miss, and the “Cancel, Amount, Done” banner partially obscures the numerical display on the calculator. Obviously, this update was poorly tested, if at all. In hindsight, I should have stayed with the previous version. Frustratingly, the developer, who appears to be in Pakistan, does not respond to emails. If this app is ever updated again it would be a miracle. ### 1/5 — The latest update has issues *2021-01-02, version 2.26* Before the latest update the app’s look was fine. Now it doesn’t display correctly on my IPhone 12 Max Pro. Especially when you are using the calculator interface. The header is difficult to read also. Please push out an update soon or revert it back to the old version. ### 1/5 — Try literally anything else *2020-11-26, version 2.25* App worked fine for years, now it won’t even open and the support link leads to a 404 error, so don’t bother downloading. ### 1/5 — Hasn't been updated in years *2020-11-16, version 2.25* I had been using it a while. Suddenly wouldn't open anymore, reinstalling lost all my data. No support. ### 1/5 — Last update caused distorted view on iPhone 7 Plus *2018-04-15, version 2.25* Last update caused distorted view on iPhone 7 Plus ### 1/5 — DropBox Backup/Restore not working *2018-01-03, version 2.24* Awesome app except getting a Error 400 Null GFile when trying to back the dB up. Waiting for someone to help me. That’s why I rated this 1 Star ### 1/5 — No update *2017-07-11* No update ### 2/5 — Bug *2021-03-24, version 2.26* There is a bug in the last update. The banner of “Amount” covers the calculator, and the balance of the accounts doesn’t change when adding an expense unless you close the app and open it again. Bad update. ### 2/5 — Update broke the look *2020-12-07, version 2.26* I like it but the last update shifted the view and now The new update does not display correctly on iphone 7 especially the calculator options (add expense etc). Its too small for the screen. Also the month headings are hard to read on the Reports options. Device : iPhone iOS version : 14.2 ### 3/5 — New releases with issues *2020-12-09, version 2.26* Last update cause distorted view on iPhone 7 plus and the colors are confused. Pleases help me I love this app!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great App!! A++ *2023-05-26* Great App! I’ve been using this app for 9 years and keep finding out new ways to use the accumulated info. I wish app included year-to-date totals but I just download to a spread sheet to get annual figures. Kudos to the author/programmer!! ### 5/5 — App stopped working *2020-11-20, version 2.25* Stopped working with the latest ios update. Any solution? ### 5/5 — An app that sends reports on income *2020-01-16, version 2.25* Finally a way to track my AIRBNB income easily! I need to see a snapshot, enter income fast and easy, write a note on who it was and be able to generate a report. Yay! After extensive and painful searching I finally found something that works. ### 5/5 — Hands down best app *2017-12-08, version 2.24* Just wish he would update to add these features -make an sub account within an account -add ability to take pics of reciepts -add a way to make it easier to add loans you have made to people so can track your money owed and money paid back -add a way to show networth with pending money money that people owe you, networth along with debtworth so it shows how much debt your in, and current networth without your debt and your pending incoming money ### 5/5 — Best Budget App!! *2016-09-06, version 2.22* Reasons why this app rocks: 1. Easy to use - large font, large icons, clear interface 2. Can create a budget- many apps just track expenses and that's not enough. Even though you can't predict the future, it's good to do your best to plan for it. 3. Monitor spending- graphics easily display where you are in your budget and if you exceed spending in any area 4. You can create categories AND subcategories!! With such flexibility, you can have a category like food, but have areas to differentiate groceries, eating out, work lunches,etc 5. Can set up multiple accounts (checking,savings,cash)- thus your app matches your bank account to the penny. 6. Can set up repeating expenses and incomes 7. Can set up "carry over" or not- this is huge. I like having each budget start new each month and it's nice to disable the carry over feature. 8. No expensive monthly/ recurring fees This is my 2nd review I put on this app....well worth the $ ### 5/5 — Best Budget App *2015-02-22, version 2.22* I tried MANY other ones and this is by far the best/easiest/most complete/best looking one. A little more 'customization' may be nice but honestly looks great to me and gets the job done. I have a lot of reimbursements with my job and this helps me keep track of all that and make sure I don't forget to turn in any expenses. ### 5/5 — The BEST Budget & Expense App EVER! *2014-09-27, version 2.22* I love, love, love, this app!!! This should be on the top of the App Store List. Most budget apps cater to only one account. I have multiple accounts that I purchase items from. Everything is working perfectly. I'm just wondering when I type in the amounts there is no clicking sound on the calculator screen however, there is clicking sounds on the rest of the app screens. Is this correct? Will you be adding a clicking sound to the calculator screen section? I don't really care much, it just helps me tell if I typed in the numbers or not without looking. I am so happy I found this app- it's been a life saver! I enjoy logging in my receipts and paying my bills now because of this app. And I have been researching and purchasing so many budgeting apps that didn't have it all. This app has it all. And it syncs seamlessly with my iPad. I'm tickled pink! I just love it. Char ### 5/5 — Fantastic: Cant expect anything better ! *2014-03-28, version 2.22* The most used app on my iPhone, an app which I love using. The interface is beautiful and the graphs meaningful. As for the functionality, transaction entry is fast, has a built in calculator, fully customizable categories and accounts, summary at a glance, and what not. Everything so nicely laid out that you will be glad you have this app. The best thing I like about this app is the ease of use. I was first attracted to it by the screen shot of the first screen. With very high expectations I downloaded it and it always lived up to my expectations. Even at $2.99, I think it was great bargain. The best money I ever spent on an app (this one actually helps me save money). I know that current price is lower, but, I still don’t regret the money I paid for it. I recommended it to at least a dozen of my friends. Go ahead get this one !! ### 5/5 — Super Dan *2013-11-25, version 2.22* Very helpful app!! The app does all the things it boasts about. The flexibility of the categories (use them as is, tweak them to fit your style, or make all new) is very useful. The reports are most helpful. One must be diligent about recording accurately. Remember GIGO. I've happily used this app for over 2 years until Apples latest upgrade TRASHED my phone and all it's data. The support team for this app was very prompt in getting back to me with alternatives to get back up & running, including their internal backup system. Good app. Good people. What more can one ask for? ### 5/5 — The best!! *2013-09-30, version 2.21* Really, this is the best app that I've found to control your expenses. It allows you to do all the things it should (income, regular income, expenses, credit cards, accounts,etc). If you want do to a good investment in an app then you should buy this one. Also the best support service, when I had a doubt they were quick to answer my query and make me feel a really happy customer :-). --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
