It doesn’t do anything. What is the use of categories if it tells you nothing about them? ### 1/5 — Initially works *2019-03-06, version 1.0* Work intially then stopped working asking me to purchase the full version but didn’t how to.Purchase the full version or the name of it & password lock while learning how to use app locked me out of app with no way back in & cannot be turned off even when started from beginning again having lost all budget information in the process with no way to back the budget information up or reclaim the information the report pie chart stopped working & still isn’t working ### 1/5 — Lost all of my info this morning! *2018-08-09* Very disappointed! Lost all of my info but a few entires this morning!! I spent hours looking for an app that would provide me with the info I needed and entering it all in and all gone. I did pay for the app, not just using it free. Frustrating.... ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2017-09-11* I agree with a lot of the reviews that say it doesn't save the information after a few days of use. I also bought the update for a $1.00 charge & it didn't remove advertisements or didn't improve workability. I really liked the ease & concept but it just won't continue to save information so has no use after a few days. Very disappointed ### 1/5 — Kndilm *2017-05-17* Absolute crap ### 1/5 — Don't bother *2017-01-22* I purchased the app for .99 cents and it did not remove the ads nor did it let me add more expenses/Income. Not happy!!!! ### 1/5 — Heather *2016-12-10* Thought it was gonna be good but all lines are blank you can't see expenses or income 👎🏻 ### 1/5 — After trial glitch *2016-10-21* Worked great and was super simple but after the free trial it begins. The app props you to pay a dollar after a couple days which I did because I'm ballin. After they have hook in my cheek the app malfunctions and will no longer save entries for the current day. In order to save an entry you have to enter the transaction and save it to the previous day. I'm really not ballin so an update would be nice. Appreciate it. ### 1/5 — Doesn't keep track of anything *2016-05-07* I entered in expenses and income and all lines remained blank. The entered data does not save. I like the concept but it would be nice to see my information saved. ### 2/5 — This app needs to be worked on. *2016-03-21* I like the format, but the handling of incomes is quite difficult (exp. Paying $10 out of $7.40 won't let you keep the remaining dollars you get back up your money despite not being an income), and the app collapses often. ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 4/5 — Just what I Need - Simple *2020-02-07* This app is exactly what i was looking for. Something extremely simple so I could budget every pay period. If you are not looking for simple, this is NOT the app for you. ### 4/5 — So far so good... *2018-06-03* This is the 2nd day I have used this app. I didn’t need to link to a bank account, only to track a budget. I will see if it saves after a few days and review again. Hopefully this is exactly what I needed. ### 4/5 — Great easy to use. *2016-05-08* This app is very easy to use and it's a great way to keep track of the finances. I like the simplicity involved in it. I would highly recommend this app. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
