I can’t wait to enjoy the benefits when my retirement comes! ### 5/5 — Does exactly what a retirement app should *2026-03-11* Within 5 minutes I had a clear picture of where I'll actually be at retirement. First time I've ever seen it all in one place. Best bit is adjusting contributions and retirement age and seeing what difference it makes. Bumping things up a couple of percent now has a surprisingly big impact by 60. No fluff, no trying to sell you a financial adviser. Just a straightforward tool that shows you your numbers. Really well done. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does basically nothing unless you pay. *2026-08-06* Useless unless you pay **Developer response:** We're really sorry you feel like that. The app provides very complex modelling, year by year breakdowns, and tax optimised income breakdowns to free users. We're always looking to review our pricing model, so will absolutely take your comments into account. ### 1/5 — Can’t even get past the first screen saying how complex financial planning is! *2026-06-26* Currently the app is non-functional at least to a new user. **Developer response:** Really sorry you've had issues logging on. Please get in touch at support@isaacmoney.com and we'll get you up and running! In the meantime, our team are investigating why you might have had this issue. ### 2/5 — Nice but too pricey *2026-04-19* The free features are fairly useful but almost everything or real value is behind a pretty high paywall. **Developer response:** Thanks for the honest feedback. You’re right that a lot of the value sits behind the paywall, and it’s something we’re actively reviewing. Expect changes to what’s free vs premium over the coming weeks. If there’s a specific tool or feature you felt should be feee, let us know. That kind of input genuinely shapes our roadmap. ### 5/5 — Brilliantly Simple *2026-08-12* A brilliant way to model your potential future retirement income stream from multiple sources e.g. pensions, savings, investments, property etc. Also gives insight into tax and IHT implications. It’ll even tell you when you can retire! ### 5/5 — A great tool *2026-07-13* I do a lot of research on where and how to invest for my pension age but have always struggled to find a reliable calculator to give a clear picture of my roadmap. Thank you, Isaac, for providing this! ### 5/5 — So useful *2026-06-26* Isaac has really helped me get to grips with planning my retirement. Such a good app. So well designed and packed with features. ### 5/5 — Retirement Clarity *2026-06-01* This is the only retirement planning app that is both super easy to use and comprehensive. Great interface and some very interesting outputs. ### 5/5 — Downgrade to free *2026-05-17* Hi how to I downgrade to the free version. The subscription screen does not stay open? ### 5/5 — What an incredibly useful app this is! *2026-05-04* Genuinely not seen anything remotely as good as this previously. So useful to prepare various scenarios for retirement. And everything takes minutes. Really love this and will be recommending to all of my friends. Absolutely game-changing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Very Informative *2026-04-22* Isaac is a refreshingly intuitive take on what most people view as either very complex or even scary. Personal finance and financial planning are fundamental to an stress-free and stable retirement. Isaac is a fantastic tool and very easy to use. Bravo. ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Greatest Retirement App By Far *2026-04-22* This app is an outstanding tool for planning your financial future. It makes long-term retirement planning clear and accessible, regardless of your age or experience. There’s truly nothing else out there that offers this level of insight and ease of use. ### 5/5 — Very good modelling and ease of operation *2026-03-29* This is a really powerful retirement planner that allows anyone to plan their retirement and pension drawdown options. I have a relatively complex setup and the app handled it with ease, showing clearly that the developer understands the challenges of retirement planning. ### 5/5 — Simple to use but powerful *2026-03-28* A great confidence building app for self awareness and self control of financial planning --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
