Doesn't work right.
I have this for Mac and iPhone. The iPad version doesn't sync right. I emailed tech support - no reply. Thanks a lot for a useless app.
Export = nadda
Yields only a blank file when exporting to DropBox. Email export is in proprietary .next format, readable only by the app. Overall effect: a complete dummy, dressed up in a tuxedo. The kids may like it, but self-employed business folks "needing" a running log for IRS purposes - avoid!
Next for IPad
Maybe I should have been more specific in my requirements. I was looking for a way to track daily business expenses, and this app seemed to bare no relationship whatsoever to what I was looking for. I did not see any easy explanation for what they symbols were but they did not seem to deal with mileage, tolls, parking, etc. I wish I had never ordered it and that I could get my money back.

No mileage tracking?
Great app for tracking just money. Would be perfect if you could also track mileage. Gave it three because it only tracks money. Add the option to track more than just dollars. Example track units and allow a unit rate entry to get dollars and presto, perfect app
Flawed syncing
Update does not fix: I cannot get the iPhone to sync with the iPad version. Yes, there are many settings that have to be set correctly (thanks, Apple ... not) but I do believe that I have set them all. Of course, this may be more Apple's iCloud Drive problem rather than Next's, but the bottom line is that I paid for two separate apps and only one of them works.

Thought it was great...
I thought this app was great, there could be some usability improvements like letting me name categories, view expenses by categories. Also would be useful to be able to add a note when I'm adding the expense. But I give it a 2 star because you have to purchase each app separate for both iPhone and iPad. Really? This is not worth the $3 price tag. So to get it on iPhone and iPad you would pay twice the amount. Also I see iCloud sync advertised, but where do I set it up? Is it automatic?

Not Sure Yet But This may Be Brilliant
I've worked with a lot of financial software, and just when I think I've found the perfect app, I find a major flaw, or it gets too cumbersome, or it's too simple, or it crashes, or something. On a whim I downloaded this app, when they announced automatic sync via icloud. The app is stupid simple. It records expenditures, period, although it organizes them in a pretty useful way. But my immediate reaction was that I couldn't make a budget or even deposit money, and it wouldn't work. Then I thought, maybe this is really all I need. I know what my income is. If I input my recurring bills at the first of the month, and all other spending as it occurs, regardless of what account I pay them from, I will know instantly if I'm on track overall. I don't need a budget and lots of custom categories, and so forth. I can track my net worth somewhere else. So this may be genius...

Needs improvements
I like the concept, it's very easy to use and fast. However, you should add recurring expenses, more icons. It's a great app showing another way to visualize your expenses. Definitely more efficient with recurring expenses. Please update.
Wasted my money
No way to enter recurring charges. For me this makes this app useless.
Helpful.
Next on iPad is the perfect way to get the big picture of your expenses.
Thanks to iCloud, all of the expenses I enter into Next on my iPhone magically appear in Next on my iPad in just a few seconds.
The animations are beautiful.
Everything works flawlessly for me. (iPad Air iOS 7.1)
The interface is very clean and easy to understand.
Be thankful that this developer took the time to make a truly solid companion to one of the best expense manager apps on iPhone.

This is a review for the 1.0 version
This app is way below my expectation. The iPhone version is great. But the ipad version is just showing numbers and very basic charts. Not useful.Don't understand why they would make something like this.
The zoom-in effect is great. But the year expense view mean nothing to me, the week expense in regular category is much useful.
Anyway, the iPhone version is great, hope this version will get better.

Doesn't sync with iPhone
I'm sure it's a beautiful app, but I wouldn't know. It doesn't appear to sync with my iPhone data that I have built up over months. Having two separate expense tractors is not useful.
I see my iPhone data in iCloud on my iPad. But next tells me I have no expenses.

Good Expense Management App, But Needs Some TLC
I really like this app. It's simple, functional and gorgeous. But to get straight down to the point... I'm a little more than confused by how things work.
Adding expenses is easy. There are symbolic icons representing many different categories. Past that point though, I stumped. Maybe it's just me, but it seems a little more complicated than it should be. Just... Everything about it confuses me. Of course, this review reflects my initial experience. I'm sure a little more practice will make things easier.
Deleting things, I found, was a hassle though. Took me several tries to delete items in the years screen. That part needs some tweaking.
Overall, I like this app. I hope it is faithfully maintained and updated by the author.
