I just hope they will add sub-currency ### 4/5 — Useful for managing your savings *2025-03-07, version 1.13.4* Its damn good ### 4/5 — Where is the setting? *2025-01-10, version 1.13.4* Why I can’t find the settings anymore ? ### 4/5 — Please Add this Feature *2025-01-05* It would be great if the order could be adjusted manually, not just by date or alphabetically. That’s the one feature I feel is still missing in this app. ### 2/5 — Good but the status bar doesn’t work *2024-09-22, version 1.13.4* Need to fix the status bar. Even when you reach 100% of the goal the bar doesn’t go to 100% 😂😂 ### 4/5 — Great but you need to add biweekly savings frequency *2024-04-16, version 1.13* There is no biweekly savings frequency. Most people get paid biweekly doesn’t make sense it’s not there ### 3/5 — The widget doesn’t change to dark mode *2024-03-08, version 1.13* The widget doesn’t change to dark mode ### 4/5 — Moneygoals Experience *2024-01-21, version 1.13* It was really good at creating financial goals for my future. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2023-12-15, version 1.13* This is an excellent app. ### 3/5 — A lot of things need to improve with the UI *2023-11-11, version 1.12.5* *Change the color of the loading bar (completed/Remaining). Why it’s almost the same color. *Change the location of the add savings and edit button. Place it at the lower part of the screen where it’s easy to reach. *Make the currency customizable. Like if the user doesnt want to use units instead of currency. ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2023-11-09, version 1.12.5* Love the app( pro user). I am a tipped employee and I use the app everyday to keep track of the tips earned: created a goal and every day I enter cash tips earned and at the end of the year I know how much I made. Super useful! I would like to suggest to add the ability to see a date marker in the progress bar for each goal. Or if you press and hold the progress bar you can see the date/amount combinations. This is useful to be able to see how much tips I earned on a given month/time period ### 5/5 — Отличное! Добавьте сумму оставшуюся для накопления *2023-09-15, version 1.12.4* Нравится приложение! Только самое необходимое. Можно использовать и для накопления на цель и для собственной мотивации, отслеживать, сколько уже собрано. Купила платную версию. Разработчиков хочется попросить еще добавить сумму, оставшуюся к накоплению, чтобы не высчитывать самим каждый раз. И было бы идеально. На данный момент видно сколько суммарно уже вложено в цель, также в процентах и видно сумму, к которой стремишься. Можно увидеть общий процент сразу по всем целям одновременно, что тоже очень круто. Использую приложение для быстрого понимания своих способностей накопить и сколько еще эти «способности» нужно дальше развивать😁 ### 5/5 — icloud sync for other devices *2023-09-09, version 1.12.4* this app is super easy to use with lots of options and minimal interface. i love it. i suggest having icloud sync for other devices too ### 3/5 — Fortnightly payments? *2023-07-16, version 1.12.4* My husband and I are saving together, but get paid on different weeks (fortnightly). We will be contributing different amounts, but I can’t add that in. Not sure if this is the app I need. ### 3/5 — Taylor *2023-06-19, version 1.12.4* Taylor ### 5/5 — Easy *2023-04-15, version 1.12.4* Love how simple and easy this is to use. I save better when I have a goal and amount in mind and this helps me keep track of everything without needing to give access to my accounts. Have been using it for over 6 years. ### 2/5 — Love this app *2023-02-27, version 1.12.2* Paid for no ads and still get ads. It’s annoying and the only thing stopping 5 stars. ### 5/5 — Good app *2022-11-01, version 1.12.2* I saved 67k ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unable to restore purchase *2024-10-04* I purchased this app earlier but after resetting my phone I am trying to restore purchase but it says no purchase found, the purchase is showing under purchase history in app store but this app says no purchase found, good kind of fraud ### 1/5 — Frequency issue *2022-10-20, version 1.12.2* I purchased the pro version and bi weekly frequency is not coming up. Please fix this. Very frustrating I want my money back! ### 1/5 — Could not easily find help *2022-10-07, version 1.12.2* I couldn’t find if the pro version is a one time purchase or a monthly subscription. ### 1/5 — too many ads *2022-01-05, version 1.12.1* far too many ads if your someone who’s trying to save money and not spend it 🤷🏻‍♀️ ### 1/5 — Way too many Ads *2021-08-16, version 1.11.2* I paid so why am I being bombarded with ads ### 1/5 — Money stealers *2021-07-07, version 1.11.2* Stole $40 from my account and after I applied for a refund they denied my application ### 1/5 — The “x” for ads is outside phone window. *2021-03-16, version 1.11.2* Can’t use at all because the ads get locked on the screen. The “x” to exit out is unclickable in its current location. I’m on an iPhone X, I’d think that it would be tested on my device. Please fix so I can use the app again. Going to have to move to another app since I can no longer use this one. ### 1/5 — Duplicate *2021-02-12, version 1.11* When I add money to a goal it is posting it twice. Please fix ### 1/5 — Annoying *2020-12-15, version 1.10.16* If you dont buy the app, you can barely do anything before they hit you with ads. If you touch or do 2 things on the app, BOOM AD. And you cant even hit the X mark to get out of it you have to wait and wait. And then you go back click 2 things, AD AGAIN. Deleted it, it was so excessive I couldnt even do anything ### 1/5 — Good but not good *2020-11-26, version 1.10.16* The tool works but every 5 secs you get an Advertise , so tired of it , every 5 secs literally... :/ ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — been using this app since i was 15 *2026-06-06, version 1.13.4* now i’m 20. i bought my first car with this, budgeted for SO many trips with this. this app is my everything. ### 5/5 — Nice *2026-03-22, version 1.13.4* Its good and motivated for saving after make target and its increase in % i motived to increase that % to make 100% so good ### 5/5 — Simplicity *2026-02-25, version 1.13.4* I just love the nature of how simple it is and how it tells you the exact amount you need to contribute whether you want to do a daily, monthly, or yearly. It’s not often you find a simple app that works, and this is one of the gems I’m proud to download and recommend. ### 5/5 — Sipey pitih *2026-01-05, version 1.13.4* Molek doh ### 5/5 — Best Saving Tracking App Ever *2025-04-19, version 1.13.4* Literally the best app out there for saving goals! Thanks ### 5/5 — Love the app, found a bug! *2025-04-15, version 1.13.4* Hello! I love the simplicity, great and cost effective app to track savings! I need some support, I unfortunately set one of my budget goals to zero which crashed the app and now I cannot access my archived budgets. Whenever I try, the app just crashes again :( How can I fix this? Thank you! ### 5/5 — Love the app!!! My favorite!!! *2025-02-10, version 1.13.4* Absolutely love your app!!

I can’t complain! ### 5/5 — Breaks saving into manageable amounts *2024-02-01, version 1.13* I love that it lets you set a goal amount and date, and frequency of saving. It reminds you how much to save and breaks large goals up into smaller, less overwhelming goals. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
