Great Tool to Use

I’ve used this app for years across multiple accounts. My wife and I have the accounts shared so we never have to ask the other for receipts like we did before using paper registers.

What happened to the ability to delete entries

Overall I like the app. I’ve used it for years. But now can no longer delete entries? That’s unfortunate.

Worked great for a while

I used this app for years, however over the last year it’s just not worked well. Transactions won’t load. My totals were different than my husbands. Transactions randomly deleted. This app definitely needs a revamp. We have moved on to a new more updated check register app. Not too excited about having to pay for a subscription but at least it works.

Lack of updates

Developer has not done any updates in several years.
Consistently unable to delete transactions. When setting up reoccurring transactions, it changes the reoccurring time frame by itself. And when you fix what it changed, it screws up your entire check book and throws everything out of whack. Best to move on to a better option and a developer that actually tries to fix the issues and keep the app updated.

Works well

This app works well for me. Not too pleased with the inability to delete entries in the “tranaction details” section . Not sure if one would be able if the upgrade was purchased. Probably why I haven’t made the purchase because otherwise, it works for me without troubles. Developer, does this ability come with purchase upgrade ?

Nice

How to change the currency?

Awesome

Been using this for years with no problem. Great tool.

Don’t subscribe

If you pay to subscribe and try to cancel, it’s impossible and no one replies or responds to requests to cancel.

Update

Why is this app never updated?

No room for mistakes!

My husband has a habit of putting the debits in before I do. Normally, that wouldn’t be a problem. However, we sometimes end up with duplicates. Forget about deleting them. The delete function doesn’t work. The only workaround is to change the amount to $0. Come on! How hard is it to have a working delete function?

Register different

Balances are always $50-$100 off from what what my check account balance really is.

Love this app

Been using for years . Just wish you could print

Needs an update for sure

I would like to be able to print each category with all the things in it. There’s no option right now to print it and if I screen capture it it’s a pain in the button. It takes a zillion papers. I would really appreciate if you would update this my check register program and make it available to print.

Very Beneficial

We use this App for multiple accounts. It is always reliable and very helpful in known exactly what is in our accounts at all time.

Balance

Last 2 months the balance is no longer correct when I trash the previous months transactions.

Works fine

I’ve been using this app for 10 years. It is very simple and straightforward, it’s perfect for the family checking account. Entering transactions is easy. Especially ones you may forgotten. It will refigure the total. Transactions can be exported as a a pdf or excel file to print or save. No problems with losing line items.

The best!

Have been using this app for several years and it is the best. All I am looking for is a checkbook that syncs between my iPhone and iPad. This is it. I never have a problem (unless it is user error).

Great simple app

I love this app! It’s simple and does what it supposed to do. I have a checking account that has several different purposes. I am able to keep track of my overall balance but also separate funds. The ONLY thing that I could suggest would be the option to add a picture of the receipt. That would be awesome:)

Decent app

I have been using this app since Aug 2013. It’s been very good other than just a few annoying things that could be improved upon. However even given those annoyances, I still like the app, and have not seen anything new as of yet that would cause me to switch. If these things were to be fixed, I would happily give the full 5 stars…

The things I love:
-Easy to use
-Auto fill for recurring entries
-Keeping my balance up to date (as long as I remember to add my transactions)
-Having multiple accounts in one app
-Ability to see overall balance of all accounts
-Search capabilities (improvements needed listed below)
-Scheduled recurring entries (improvements needed listed below)

Improvements I would like to see:
-Search capabilities.
I have been entering a code on my entries, so that when I search that specific code to get the amount spent on that category (for instance, I will put internet24 on all my internet charges so that at the end of the year I can quickly search just the 2024 entries, for tax filing purposes). It would be nice to have the ability to search a specific date range, but I have designed my own coding in order to not really need it. But, it would be REALLY nice to be able to search over ALL accounts with one search, rather than having to search each account separately.
One annoyance, is that sometimes when I search a specific code or entry, it will give me the correct balance for that category (starting with the first entry balance being the same as the charge for that entry), and sometimes it will show more on the beginning balance of the first transaction (showing a larger balance on the first entry than that of the first entry, thereby making the overall balance incorrect). I would like to see this be more consistent, giving the balance for just the one entry type.

-Scheduled recurring entries:
I love being able to schedule upcoming recurring transactions. It would be really nice to have more options for how often they are. There is currently only the 2 week, or monthly option. It would be really great if you could add bi-monthly, quarterly, and annual options.

-Transfer between accounts:
It would sure be nice to enter a transaction once in one account and see it added to the other effected account automatically. For instance when I make a payment to my credit card from my checking account. It requires two separate entries, one in each account (one as debit, the other as credit).

-Being able to change the name of an account needs to be easier. I thought I was able to do this before, but now I can’t seem to figure out how to do this without screwing up the account and having to start a new account.

Customer for multiple years

I’ve used this app for years with no complaints until a couple of weeks ago when I updated the name of my account on the first page. It changed my balance to be different than my transaction registry list balance. I have tried changing the balance beside my account name and I have also added a transaction in the registry list to make the two totals equal the same with no success. I have sent 3 emails to app with no response. I’m an intelligent individual and I am able to balance numbers and no matter what figure I put in on the first page or registry page it will not correct the other balance amount to be same. If anyone can advise, please let me know
