Why act like you offer a free option when the free part is literally just a calculator? disappointing ### 4/5 — Love the app on my phone but . . . *2025-12-01, version 6.0.17* It doesn’t work great on an iPad. Please please can you get it optimised for iPad. I want to be able to look at my bank app on my phone and update the budget app on my iPad so I can see both at the same time. Feels like I’m juggling apps and losing my place otherwise. The app is great. Love the Networth tracker and the premise it great. With some minor technical improvements this app would be amazing. ### 2/5 — Need to pay *2025-07-16* If you want to use it normally, you need to pay **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for leaving a review. We're happy to share that you can access a free trial for a month to help determine if it's something you'll find valuable. Please feel free to message hello@financielle.com and we'll be happy to assist there. Many thanks, Team Financielle ### 2/5 — Errors *2025-05-02, version 6.0.14* App seemed to be ok. Paid for the subscription. Entered all my fixed payments, took me a while to go through bank account etc. Then saved and all the expenses went to £0. So just massive waste of my time really ### 4/5 — Problems with spending exact amount *2025-04-22, version 6.0.14* I love this app so much and have been using it for about a year now, it’s helped me save and track my spending habits so well! Only issue is , when putting the rest of my money into my excess pot, the figure always comes up as -£0.00 left then it stops me from saving this by saying I can’t exceed the given amount by spending , however this doesn’t make sense to me? But it’s just a technical issue I hope they fix it soon. ### 3/5 — Sinking funds glitch *2025-04-01, version 6.0.14* Just downloaded really good app so far, keep coming across a glitch where it won’t let me put my own picture onto the sinking funds ( one of main incentives for getting the app) ### 3/5 — Nice features, but app is glitchy *2025-03-28, version 6.0.14* There are some nice features included, but the app is kind of glitchy. For instance, in the “Actual” section, once an expense has been documented it cannot be deleted. Only renamed or the amount changed. In the “Budget” section same issue - but the rename doesn’t stick. For instance, I accidentally added two fitness categories, I keep trying to rename one to Health. The app appears to allow this, but when I hit save it pops back to fitness. ### 5/5 — Wow this has transformed my finances *2025-03-23, version 6.0.14* The budget tracker has truly changed the game for me. Love the community and the podcast, the money app that has been missing from my life! ### 5/5 — Excellent. *2025-03-04, version 6.0.14* Can’t remember how I came across this app. Most likely Social Media and what a wonderful app. Let’s you work towards Savings Goals while keeping track of paying off outstanding debts. No need to link my bank account either which is wonderful (I hate apps that require linking bank accounts and I refuse to do it as it is intrusive!) Looking at this app is going to entice me to change my habits, strive towards my goals and hold me accountable. All of which I love!! ### 4/5 — Great app but way to expensive *2025-01-03, version 6.0.11* Great App but way too expensive ### 5/5 — The essential app *2024-12-16, version 6.0.11* Great budgeting tool, easy to understand and so much easier than my spreadsheet. Makes total sense and worth it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not functional at all *2025-12-15, version 6.0.17* Can’t create an account, can’t login, app is literally not responsive to any type of input. Tried on phone and iPad multiple times. Installed, deleted and reinstalled- no change. Shame as I was hoping to use this for 2026. ### 1/5 — What a surprise twist *2025-07-17* Ironic it’s a budget helping app, but it charges???? Confusing what their point is. Instantly deleted this app once it asked me for a payment plan. No thank you! There’s better apps out there. **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for leaving a review.

Many thanks, Team Financielle ### 1/5 — Average app, bad customer service *2025-07-01, version 6.0.14* There is absolutely nothing special in the app to justify nearly £40 yearly subscription. Yet, the customer services is awful. I am not able to switch off notifications - even though they are off, I keep receiving these messages in the middle of the night. After multiple messages exchanged, ultimately, customer services said “there is nothing we can do because we tested and for us is working fine” 🤯 that was an example of poor investment, ladies! ### 1/5 — Noisy, Very Difficult To Use *2025-06-15* I tried to use this app, but there is a LOT of noise. It doesn’t respect the configured currency: it continues to show £ in all the examples, and in my budget. It uses weird “hip” terms for budgeting concepts that aren’t at all intuitive. Overall: It’s like a finance blog with configuration options. ### 1/5 — Useless without payed subscription *2025-06-09* To start budgeting they’re asking to pay a subscription so it is not for free **Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for leaving the feedback. I'm happy to report that Financielle is a freemium app meaning the majority of our tools and content is completely free to use. People have the option of taking out a premium subscription should they want to access the Budgeting tool, community and net worth tracker. We know that premium users outperform free users when it comes to paying down debt, saving and increasing their net worth. If you'd like us to arrange a free trial please feel free to email the team at hello@financielle.com ### 1/5 — sign up *2025-03-11, version 6.0.14* doesnt let me sign in or sign up ive tried with email, apple and google but nothing works ### 1/5 — Not the best *2025-02-12, version 6.0.14* Hard to navigate, couldn’t link bank account. A lot of it is manual. Snoop and Emma was better ### 1/5 — Why just for women? *2025-01-27, version 6.0.12* It seems like budgeting and finance aren’t inclusive of everyone. This app could be great, but unfortunately, it doesn’t feel welcoming to someone like me because if gender. Hopefully, someone will create a budgeting planner that’s designed exclusively with men in mind, I guess. ### 1/5 — Useless without premium *2025-01-09, version 6.0.11* This app is nicely designed but you can’t access ANY of the budgeting features unless you pay a monthly fee. Making this app completely useless and redundant. There’s many other free budgeting apps out there who only charge a fee for EXTRA features, not the entire functionality of the app ### 1/5 — Use to be great before ridiculous price increase *2024-09-18, version 6.0.6* Was my absolute favourite budgeting app and was happy paying $4.99 a month to access the budgeting feature. They recently upped the price to TRIPLE at $14.99 a month. Such a rip off which is a shame cause I loved it but will be using something else instead now. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Can’t live without this app! *2026-05-31, version 6.0.17* This app has completely turned around my finances, can’t thank the Financielle ladies enough for being the best finance queens! Thanks to the knowledge I’ve gained throughout the last year I have a fully funded sinking fund ready to go in July to pay for the app for another year! ### 5/5 — Lifesaver! *2026-04-02, version 6.0.17* Whilst I am still in debt with a long way to go, I have managed to pay off 4 different credit cards since downloading Financielle which I know I wouldn’t have been able to do without this app. I stopped making payments for a while and got behind and lost track of what I had left but this app displays it clearly. Once you start seeing the balances come down, it makes paying your debt addictive!! Thank you for making this app because you’ve made a huge difference to my life and taken a weight off my shoulders because I’m on my way to a debt free life because of you guys ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2026-03-15, version 6.0.17* I love this app I love that the features such as debt and savings are available regardless of if you pay for a subscription or not this is so important for those who can’t afford a subscription but who need to see their debt In front of them and to set goals thank you for making this available to all it’s a wonderful app and one I will be using forever ! ### 5/5 — Great dynamic app for finance *2026-01-30, version 6.0.17* Whilst I am yet to subscribe to all the features, I am really enjoying using this app. It is very much made for the modern woman and I feel like it gets a lot of the issues that I have in life with my finances. It caters for different lifestyles and circumstances and I feel like with a bit more commitment on my part, I have a good companion to sorting my finances out. ### 5/5 — Has totally changed my life and feelings about money! *2026-01-29, version 6.0.17* I grew up in a working class household with parents that increasingly relied on credit to get by . Needless to say I don’t get the best education in how to manage my money, let alone how to make the most of my money and I ended up making some very silly choices. If I had this app 20 years ago my life could have been very different ! In just 2 years my whole mindset has shifted and for the first time in my adult life I have savings and hope for my financial future but most of all I’m free of consumer debt. I cannot rate these girls highly enough 🙏 ### 5/5 — Best app I ever downloaded. *2026-01-27, version 6.0.17* From the amazing and supportive community and all the information! You will finally get a hold of your finances in a way you never have before with a method that actually works and even if you think no one will understand, the community is a no judgement zone and just helps you feel less alone. ### 5/5 — The best finance app for women! 🩷 *2026-01-27, version 6.0.17* This app is such a great tool to use and it’s definitely worth being a premium member - the real time tracking, budgeting, life admin and so much more is fantastic and means everything is one place. It lets you really see what’s happening each month in your budget and the community is fantastic! Also the podcast is brilliant! 🩷 ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-11-21, version 6.0.16* The app combined with the podcast and social content has really helped to find a budgeting strategy that actually makes sense and is making a difference to how I manage my money. I actually look forward to budgeting and tracking my spending now - never thought I’d say that! ### 5/5 — Couldn’t be without this app! *2025-10-16, version 6.0.14* This app is such a life saver! I couldn’t be without it now. It’s user friendly and really helps with budgeting for the months ahead. I feel so much more financially well now since using this app! I managed to get logged out and couldn’t back in and the team were so helpful with gaining access again (which was my mistake!). Great service from Lydia and Holly! Thank you for creating such an amazing app Financielle! 💕 ### 5/5 — Life changing *2025-09-23, version 6.0.14* I very rarely write reviews on apps but this one I felt I had to. I am an impulsive spender (among other things) and lived payday to payday and always scared of unexpected big expenses. Thought buy now pay later was great. Constantly shifted debt to the next 0% credit card deal. This app (and the podcast) has changed it. I am now feeling so much more in control of my money and have paid off all but the car loan and now starting to save and see my money grow. I’m sure not everyone needs this, but I absolutely did, and the £40 per year is a drop in the ocean of what I have saved by using the tools this app provides. Thank you to the girls, and the developers, you don’t know how life changing this has been. I honestly just wish I could go back in time and start sooner. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
