User reviews

Very limited functionality

A very simple income & expenses system only that could be easily built in Excel or Number, there is no balance sheet (even a limited one) element and no ability to run bank reconciliations or do any other basic tasks.

Can’t edit or input recurring expenses

Pretty good for freelancers

I am self employed and have been looking for an alternative to the monthly subscription accounting softwares. This is just what I needed! All it needs is CSV import. Please add CSV import and it would be perfect!

Manage Repeating Transactions - not working

Updating my original review from 2 years ago: 09/20/24: the Manage Repeating Transaction STILL does not work at all. 3 stars

Original 4 star review from 2022:
iMac Studio Max M1

When I try to create a repeating transaction:

1. A name is required, but it only lets you key in one letter at a time.

2. The amount defaults to 25,000 pounds, but you can change it. Not sure why it defaults to pounds when my book is setup as dollars. When you click on the amount or use the keypad or use the keypad in the amount, nothing works to change the amount.

I just keyed in 24 recurring transactions manually so I was excited when I found this feature...but it doesn't work. :(

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. Apple are in charge of asking you when to review, it looks like they have been a little hasty there! Hopefully when you've had more time to get to grips with Microbooks we might earn that fifth star. All the best, David.
