### 1/5 — App needs urgent update

*2021-04-08, version 2.12*

iCloud not syncing so I lost all data since probably 10 years , setting buttons not working so I can’t rest my password

### 4/5 — Sync

*2020-01-20, version 2.10*

This app not sync with iCloud 😢

### 3/5 — Loading issue

*2019-01-27, version 2.9.13*

Firstly, I just want to say that I have been using this up for years and I really love the simplicity and ease of use. I have tried most others and none can compare.

However, I upgraded from an iPhone 6 to a XS and ever since, the app has been extremely slow to load. When I open the app, it takes about 3 seconds to load my balance, then when I click on “New transaction”, it takes another 3-5 seconds to load my categories. This is extremely frustrating when I am trying to do a quick expense (which I do multiple times a day).

I’d love for this to be fixed instead of adding new app color options.

Strongly suggested features:

1. Add a weekly recurring transactions. I have some transactions that occur every week which I cannot automate.

2. Add a widget for quick transaction. Perhaps a small 4-5 of the most used categories along with a number pad to add transactions on the fly.

As I said, I have been using this app for years now and I love it, but nothing has really changed for a long time. I’d pay for a V2 with someone of the features I suggested/new ones along with a mini graphical “facelift”.

### 5/5 — Best personal budgeting app

*2019-01-25, version 2.9.13*

I’ve used this app for over 5 years and it’s grown with me all along the way across multiple iOS updates and three phones. As long as the developer keeps updating the app (and it’s updated frequently thank goodness), I’ll continue to use it!!!

This is my personal thank you!!!!

### 5/5 — Simple, flexible, not 'grabby' with my info

*2019-01-03, version 2.9.12*

I've been using this app for a long time to help me track and control my spending, and  it does everything I need it to without having to log in, connect to an account, or other 'service creep'.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2018-06-08, version 2.9.8*

I used this app every day since 2014 until now every hours 
And really need this future in next update ( if u can put pictures with any things u spend i think its amazing thing thank you

### 5/5 — Serious underdog

*2016-05-25, version 2.9.5*

This app has been a staple of my every day life for years now in keeping me financially out of the red in some real paycheck-to-paycheck college years. Very happy to see it receive the iOS 9 treatment. I've tried numerous apps of this type but the layout and options this provides for at-a-glance balancing and quick type-specific transaction deductions/additions is both beautifully efficient in ways the others aren't. And it isn't account-linked so that you can manually go by individual receipt inputs which is always 100% accurate provided you keep up with it.

### 5/5 — Best personal expense tracker available

*2013-05-01, version 2.7.2*

I needed an app to simply track how much I spend and how much I make each month, broken down into categories. Everything is entered manually, which some people don't like, but I love having complete control over the expense categories. Other apps sometimes incorrectly classify expenses. I HIGHLY recommend this app if you're looking for a straightforward expense tracking app without bells and whistles.

### 3/5 — Needs more, but easy to use

*2013-03-01, version 2.7.1*

I found this app to be easy to use, and input data. The history and graphing functions are useful, but lack detail so that you cannot drill down, or change the data inputs. An example; I tried to update my income, and it changed all the past months income to the same number. Transactions are stored, but not income. Would like to have more categories, and updates to easier views of budget.

### 5/5 — Great! Would love to see more features

*2012-12-10, version 2.7.1*

This is an excellent app! Love how polished it is. 

Devs: Would really like to see the ability to choose a payment type for each transaction (e.g. credit card vs cash) with some customization options. Also really wish we could import transactions from CSV. 

An all around great app though regardless.
