### 2/5 — Clunky

*2026-04-23, version 5.10.0*

As someone who’s used app based invoicing/ estimating software, this seems quite clunky and unresponsive. There’s no way of re-ordering items in the list which should be a basic requirement of this app.

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2025-12-13, version 5.6.1*

The website has more features

### 2/5 — Limited

*2025-12-11, version 5.6.1*

Can’t seem to do some of the functions you can on the web interface

### 3/5 — Issue

*2025-11-17, version 5.5.0*

Really good. But with a recent update the app will not go full screen in landscape. It opens in a scaled down version. Please fix!

### 2/5 — Latest version says to update app when is already updated

*2025-11-13, version 5.3.0*

Can't open the app, says need to update the app but its already the latest version from 2d ago.

### 2/5 — Very Basic

*2025-11-05, version 5.4.1*

Run a limited company? Want to view corporation tax due dates and serials, VAT submission dates and reminders; want to view anything useful? Then don’t use this app. It’s laughably bad. The defence from the developers below shows they don’t have a clue that it’s businesses using FreeAgent. Maybe the takeover by RBS-NatWest has rendered the developers to inefficient RBS processes and workshops. Unbelievable how limited the app is.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-11-01, version 5.3.0*

Been using freeagent for 15 years ish. So easy to keep track of money in and out.

### 2/5 — Lacks Basic Funtionality

*2025-10-03, version 5.2.0*

No option to view total salary paid out, total dividends paid out, total mileage. All very basic data that I want to know

### 5/5 — No cis option

*2025-08-22, version 5.1.1*

Only issue is there no option to add CIS deduction. The only way is to use the discount option for the 20%deduction.

### 5/5 — Latest Update Bug

*2025-08-09, version 5.1.0*

Love the app but in the latest version on IoS when you send a file to FreeAgent (e.g. from an email etc) the file name is not being passed through.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-05-03, version 4.23.0*

Little slow linked with my banking app, but over all love the approach and how professional it all looks

### 5/5 — Just what I’ve been looking for!

*2025-04-26*

I’m a sole trader and was previously using Quickbooks. If you’re struggling with Quickbooks sole trader not working, then get yourself a Mettle bank account and set yourself up with this completely free. It works perfectly, seems to be no bugs or glitches and support is quick and helpful. I’ve been looking for an alternative for 2 years and this is it! Only suggestion I’d make would be for it to include an automatic mileage tracker, but I now use another app for that and will add the mileage into FreeAgent in bulk at the end of the tax year.

### 4/5 — Solid app but more integration needed

*2025-03-13, version 4.20.1*

I like the app a lot, however a critical integration with Revolut Pro is missing - pretty important feature for freelancers like myself.

### 1/5 — Older phones unsupported

*2026-01-03, version 4.13.1*

Another app development that doesn’t allow older phones to work with it

### 1/5 — Useless with older operating system!

*2025-12-16, version 5.3.0*

Can no longer use as app needs iOS 18 and won’t proceed without updating… my phone has no space to update to iOS 18. Massively inconvenient and can no longer do accounting on the go… which is why I signed up to FreeAgent in the first place 🙃

### 1/5 — Utterly useless!

*2025-12-11, version 4.15.1*

When I open the app it insists I have to update the app. When I go to the App Store, either directly or through the app prompt, no updates are available!  The app now requires iPadOS 18 or later, for very particular compatibility and consistency reasons I'm remaining on iPadOS 17.

### 1/5 — Why drop iOS 17 support so soon?

*2025-11-27, version 4.7.0*

As title says... This is just annoying. It's a great app but now I can't use it.

### 1/5 — Why drop iOS 17 support so soon?

*2025-11-20, version 4.7.0*

As title says... This is just annoying

### 1/5 — Can no longer use

*2025-11-16, version 4.23.0*

I was loving this until now, why the hell have you updated the ap to a later version.my phone does not support this update, so the ap is now useless

### 1/5 — Free trial didn’t start

*2025-03-16*

It says your free trial has ended as soon as I signed up! Stupid. If you don’t provide the free trial, why you waste my time by signing up and completing the 6-7 steps?

**Developer response:** It sounds like something has gone wrong here. I believe a member of our Support team has been in touch and hopefully we can work this out for you asap! Apologies for a less than stellar welcome.

### 1/5 — Send a tutorial

*2025-01-31, version 4.19.2*

How to use it

### 1/5 — Highly irritating

*2024-10-06, version 4.17.0*

The photo library/camera option doesn’t work. The app freezes again & again. I usually reset the whole phone, lately I just delete the app & restore it. I’m only using the app because it helps the accounting team. Excel was much better.

### 1/5 — Hangs on launch

*2023-10-28, version 4.5.2*

Have tried to install a few times but just hangs on the login screen “logging you in” with an infinite spinner. iPhone 11 16.1.2

### 5/5 — Easy

*2026-05-16, version 5.11.0*

So easy to use and for my accountant too.

### 5/5 — Great and still Improving

*2026-04-25, version 5.10.0*

I’ve been using FreeAgent, in combination with Mettle bank, and the two work well together.

For the first time ever this year, I’ve filed limited liability accounts and associated paperwork, straight to both Companies House and HMRC, without needing to call on the services of my accountant.

If your incoming funds and outgoings have been properly catergorised, you can file end of year accounts and even self assessment data straight to the authorities via FreeAgent.

Between Stripe and GoCardless, I think we’ve got most payments sorted.

I’ve a slight criticism; FreeAgent needs to get up to speed with AI, and Claude Code connectors and MCP access, in particular.
I don’t think I could run my business as well without FreeAgent and its army of customer support help.

Well done.

### 5/5 — So far so good!

*2026-04-11, version 5.9.0*

Only just started using.. customer support is great!

### 5/5 — Incredibly clever

*2026-03-21, version 5.8.0*

I was made aware of free agent from a tradesman coming to the house. I have now been able to add my bank accounts, have a business account with mettle so free banking, free invoicing, everything in one place and so easy to use, from phone to laptop so on the go really and recommend.

### 5/5 — Support is fab and sinister friendly

*2026-03-07, version 5.7.0*

Support comms are quick. Format is excellent compared with Xero and Quickbooks.

### 5/5 — So Happy

*2026-02-02, version 5.6.1*

Absolutely loving it using this app . It’s helping me get organised 
So easy to use

### 5/5 — 5 STARS

*2026-01-09, version 5.6.1*

FREE TO DOWNLOAD “ VERY HELPFUL APP VERY SIMPLE TO USE “5 STAR SERVICE

### 5/5 — FreeAgent is amazing

*2025-11-22, version 4.23.0*

I love this system and have recommended to others, it’s so great! 

But I now can’t use it without updating my iOS — it’s just stopped working altogether :((

### 5/5 — Makes life easier

*2025-11-20, version 5.6.0*

Great app to help keep my accounts organised as I am not organised at all.

### 5/5 — FreeAgent On the Phone

*2025-11-06, version 5.4.1*

Can’t get to your laptop? Use your phone to create an Invoice. Well done FreeAgent the Phone Application works well.
