### 2/5 — Ads in premium :(

*2026-07-28, version 7.1.0*

Decent enough app but then they launched ads in Premium. Will be finding a different app

### 5/5 — Perfect app for couples

*2026-07-26, version 7.1.0*

Great app. Has the perfect functionality for couples. No fancy bells and whistles, and doesn’t need any.

### 3/5 — Update not helpful

*2026-05-25, version 7.1.0*

The update does not allow us to write the store (comment) without scrolling down, which is less convenient

### 5/5 — Great for couples who track expenses together

*2026-04-30, version 7.1.0*

After testing a heap of apps over the past year I’ve found that Expenses is the ONLY app that allows couples to enter expenses from their own phones (and their own Apple accounts) and shows them all in one panel. The app is simple, clean, fast and I like that we can set budgets (limits) to any category and see how close we are to going over. Another decent app is Monefy, but it’s sync features never worked for us and it required using a third party like Dropbox to sync data. Other apps sync via iCloud which keeps couples from sharing data. Expenses is great in that it handles all the data transfer for us, keeping our phones up to date with all our expenses. A+

### 5/5 — Best couple budget management app!

*2026-03-14*

It’s hard to find the words to express how amazing this app is. It’s incredibly clean and minimalist, yet still powerful and thoughtfully designed for its purpose. My partner and I were genuinely amazed by how perfectly this tool fits our needs. We were simply looking for a way to manage a shared budget in a straightforward and collaborative way, and this app does it beautifully.

Everything feels intuitive and effortless. Adding expenses, organizing categories, and keeping track of shared spending is smooth and surprisingly enjoyable. The interface is elegant, responsive, and clearly built with a lot of care and attention to detail. It strikes that rare balance between simplicity and functionality that so many apps try to achieve but few actually deliver.

The design is outstanding, and the true black dark mode that matches the iOS aesthetic is an absolute treat for the eyes. It feels perfectly at home on the iPhone, almost as if it were a native Apple feature.

Most importantly, this app solved a real problem in our daily life. What used to require scattered notes and mental math is now organized, transparent, and effortless. It has already become part of our routine as a couple, and I’m certain it’s an app that will stay with us for a very long time. Truly a fantastic piece of work.

### 5/5 — Simple, powerful, and effective

*2026-02-13, version 6.3.0*

My fiancé and I have been using Our Expenses for years, and we love it! Simple to use and always reliable.

### 2/5 — Feedback

*2026-01-23, version 6.3.0*

Adding photo upload function would be helpful for a digital record of paper invoices/receipts

### 1/5 — Don’t subscribe

*2025-10-08, version 6.3.0*

No updates in the last 3 years. Future uncertain. Not optimized for iOS 18.

Update October’25:
After 3 years, the developer puts out a new version with cero improvements, bug fixes or Liquid Glass design.

### 5/5 — Simple and super user friendly

*2025-08-04, version 6.2.5*

This is exactly the app I’ve been searching for! It’s simple, clean, and super user-friendly, ideal for managing our household expenses as a couple. It helps us stay on the same page financially without the stress. Highly recommend for partners or roommates looking to budget together with ease.

Thank you team for creating this app!! ❤️

### 4/5 — Loved it, but been causing issues lately

*2025-08-01, version 6.2.5*

I’ve been using the app for years now and it was always nearly perfect. But over the last few months, it fails to log expenses, gets stuck on loading when refreshing the home page and as of today, none of the entries I make are being saved. Miss the old, seamless version.
