Wish I could indicate that someone has paid some of what they owe back. Rght now u can only delete a logged entry. ### 2/5 — This app has great potential but… *2023-11-22, version 1.1* I see 4 years ago other users requested to be able to make partial payments - this still hasn’t been addressed. Also there is no way to edit an entry like change the amount or the due date. ### 4/5 — Comes in handy… *2023-08-30, version 1.1* Nice to have for things you let people borrow so you make sure you get them back. Could use some improvements like the ability to add custom groups and the date that you let someone borrow something. ### 4/5 — Needs pics *2023-04-20, version 1.1* Would be better if you could take pictures of borrowed or lent things ### 3/5 — Useless for me *2022-10-28, version 1.1* The only thing for me that I like about this app is that it is non-subscription.. I’m giving it a neutral 3 rather than a 1 because it might fulfill some needs out there, but it is really basic, it doesn’t do anything more for me than my calculator app and notepad. I expected it to be a great way to enter an amount I loaned a friend and then offer an easy way to decline his balance, for example if the loan was $5000 and he paid me at his convenience on his payday (not structured to a specific recurring date) I would just enter that amount, say $259.30 and the app would show the date he paid me, the amount, and what’s left that he still owes me … $4740.70. Ideally I could text or email him a receipt showing his remaining balance. That would be a great app, this isn’t it. By the way, this one only allows 6 payback dates and no longer than 6 months. Useless! ### 2/5 — Confusing APP *2022-10-20, version 1.1* At first I thought this app was exactly what I was looking for but NOPE….deleting it and finding another solution. If you lend money to someone and then they pay you back each week or month then you should be able to “remove” or “pay down” that debt from their original lent amount. A terrible work around is that you have to “borrow” from that person to show they paid a portion of the amount. But then it shows that you have borrowed from that specific person. It is confusing and doesn’t make sense. Also, I tried the “borrow” option to test it and then now it shows that I borrowed money from someone and it won’t let me delete it. Each time I try the app crashes. I agree with someone below, it would also have been great to be able to have separate loans for the same person, but I can get over that one. ### 2/5 — Balance updates *2021-08-25, version 1.1* It’s a good app. And I like the concept. I used this cause my family needed to borrow a large amount from me. What I don’t like is that if they pay me less than what they owe me, I’m not able to update that. I have to calculate it my Self, remove the previous balance then upload the new one and resubmit it to the family member. Over all its cool, but they should really update on allowing us to report a payment done towards the amount owed. It would be better and very useful. ### 4/5 — Good *2021-06-14, version 1.1* Good just wish they had the ability to save or backup the information. Restored my phone a while back and lost everything. ### 4/5 — Simple. And works *2021-02-20, version 1.1* I honestly don’t use it a whole lot but the app if clean and simple to use. A great way to keep track of those little items you let people borrow and inevitably forget where they are at. ### 2/5 — Can’t add partial payment or edit amount *2021-02-01, version 1.1* If someone borrows say £300 and then they give me £100 back towards it I can’t add that to the app it’s either the whole debt or none of it so the app isn’t useful for helping to keep track - deleted and downloaded OWED instead as I can edit the amount (can’t edit the amount on lend pad only paid or delete) ### 4/5 — Great App 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 *2021-01-31, version 1.1* Very useful. ### 3/5 — It’s great but needs improvement *2020-10-07, version 1.1* Overall the it’s a great concept but I wish you could add multiple people on the same “lend” option because sometimes you split some pizza or an Airbnb with friends. This would make it much quicker instead of adding friend by friend, specially when you have to do it for 20 friends for the same thing. ### 2/5 — Not optimized *2020-08-24, version 1.1* this app works like a charm - I love it ### 4/5 — Great app *2020-05-30, version 1.1* It is great app but when I backed my phone up and restored to a new phone, all my information in this app was gone. It would have been nice if I could make an account in it and keep my info when using it on anther phone ### 3/5 — Password? *2020-04-10, version 1.1* Needs to be password protected.. ### 4/5 — Nice design *2020-02-25, version 1.1* Very good idea and design. Please give us to edit an entry. ### 3/5 — Not bad but could be better *2020-02-08, version 1.1* Overall it works well and has options for lending/borrowing different items not just currency. It does not allow you to account for partial payments and unless I missed it no way to edit your entries as needed. There is a delete or settle option that is it. I like that it allows you to have multiple entries for one person and like I lent 500 but then I borrowed 200 and it will do the math. I would like the option to be able to track 2 different loans for the same person like if they owe you for rent and then they also owe half the water bill and be able to track them separately. Overall I still think it’s a great app except for the pushy review reminder hence why I’m here in hopes I never see it again so kudos you did it you got yourself rated homie. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not helping *2026-05-09, version 1.1* The app won’t allow me to put more than one person in it at a time. No one is assisting me with it. ### 1/5 — Not what it say it is very complex *2026-02-18, version 1.1* Terrible service ### 1/5 — Incomplete *2026-02-04, version 1.1* If you can’t log payments there is no true way to track your funds ### 1/5 — Crashes *2025-05-12, version 1.1* It was a good app but it keeps crashes and log me out ### 1/5 — Mr. Charlie *2023-04-03, version 1.1* I just downloaded the app and there isn’t any sign up details whatsoever. It’s different from what is displayed in the App Store. How am I suppose to barrow or lend any money? I even typed in community and it said I borrowed money instantly. This app doesn’t give you the option to even put in your bank information. Can I get some assistance please.? Thanks ### 1/5 — Terrible *2021-04-30, version 1.1* I thought I would be able to keep track as I made each payment but all it kept allowing me to do is to settle it or delete it. So this gets a one star and I will be deleting the whole app. ### 1/5 — Absolutely diabolical!!!! *2019-11-04, version 1.1* And that rating will stay until the owners contact me and reply to my email. Over to you people!!!! ### 1/5 — To much freezs *2019-06-03, version 1.1* The app layout and functionality is good, but the app its self no good, it keeps freezing, when i try to delete an item it closed the app by it self. ### 1/5 — Nice Concept *2019-04-08, version 1.1* So the base app is great but it doesn’t seem to work how it’s intended, in that I find no way for it to connect with my contacts list and therefore if I’m trying add multiple items to the same person it will give my multiple listings of that person because I’m manually entering their name ### 1/5 — I can’t tell if this is a good app. *2018-10-08, version 1.1* I downloaded the app to use. I was able to add one item for money owed which was very easy and maybe over simplistic but it worked. I wanted to add a second item and when I went to enter the item the app asked for a rating. When I said later for the rating it wouldn’t let me add that second item. How can I rate the app if I can’t use it for more than 1 entry, That doesn’t make any sense. So the concept of the app is good but I can’t experience the app because they won’t let me. I tried entering that second item 2 times and it still wouldn’t let me enter it because I didn’t want to rate the app yet. Sorry guys but your app can’t be used so I can’t give you a positive rating. I’m not sure what your protecting but I’ll shop elsewhere. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I need for personal *2026-08-31, version 1.1* My car bill ### 5/5 — Easy *2024-08-16, version 1.1* Does all that you require, nothing fancy just good old fashion app that works 😊 ### 5/5 — Hi *2022-12-28, version 1.1* It’s okay ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-12-11, version 1.1* Excellent please add the pound sign for UK users ### 5/5 — So far so good. It’s only been 2 days *2020-10-08, version 1.1* It’s only been 2 days. Further reviews to come ### 5/5 — Just what I wanted *2020-08-05, version 1.1* Excellent light weight and fast. Keeps track of everything. Easy to use ### 5/5 — Great app for those of us who need to keep track *2020-07-02, version 1.1* One great feature would be a one line to add event or notes. Great free app ### 5/5 — Does what I want *2019-11-13, version 1.1* I really just needed somewhere private to write down what my friends owe me. Using the notes on my phone was boring and it doesn’t give me totals or a ledger, which this app does. I like it because it’s simple and functions for what I need. The only thing that I don’t like is that I can’t save it to an account. So I take screenshots of it in case I have to get a new phone or something. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2019-11-07, version 1.1* I needed something to help me keep track of $$ I lend out. This is perfect ### 5/5 — Add edit feature *2019-09-06, version 1.1* Add edit feature and it’s perfect and also would be great if you could secure it with a pin --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
