### 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

### 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

### 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

### 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.

### 3/5 — Help

*2025-07-06, version 6.2.5*

My husband and I cannot figure out why the app refuses to reset the budget at the 1st of the month. We don’t want to delete the app, we even paid for the subscription but if we can’t get this figured out we will have to go with a different app

### 2/5 — Great app but lack of support

*2025-07-05, version 6.2.5*

3years without any update, doesn’t offer dark icons and will likely never support Liquid Glass… not acceptable for an app that requires a subscription

### 3/5 — Having issues with App getting stuck

*2025-03-12, version 6.2.5*

After every entry the app gets stuck and I have to kill n relaunch. This is so pathetic . Please fix it asap. Happy to edit the rating later

### 4/5 — Exactly what we needed!

*2024-11-10, version 6.2.5*

Works well for a couple. On my disadvantage is not being able to track individual contributions to a specific category.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2024-07-07, version 6.2.5*

Not intuitive, frustrating to set up. Cancelled same day despite paying premium.

### 4/5 — 4 Star

*2024-04-03, version 6.2.5*

Nice app

### 3/5 — Needs an income feature

*2024-03-12, version 6.2.5*

I like the interface but need to be able to input incoming funds not just balance settling.

### 5/5 — Great app, works perfectly

*2024-02-17, version 6.2.5*

I used this app with my partner for years before we got married. As an iOS dev I applaud  the simplicity and beauty of this app. It’s smooth, works consistently, and supports many iOS native features! Well done!

### 5/5 — Wonderful App

*2023-12-04, version 6.2.5*

I love the simplicity of this app . Very easy and fun to record

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

*2023-11-19*

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 — Love it

*2023-11-05, version 6.2.5*

We just used this to setup our monthly expenses and it’s fantastic. Already settled an argument too 👌. Premium unlock is £9.99 for the year and allows for the setup of recurring expenses and well worth it !

### 4/5 — Not for Android phones

*2023-10-14, version 6.2.5*

Sadly, I sent it to my husband to learn that it is not supported on Android phone.

### 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.

### 1/5 — Don’t subscribe

*2025-07-26, version 6.2.5*

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

### 1/5 — Broken links

*2024-12-14, version 6.2.5*

So my partner and I have used this successfully but since having to reset my phone and do a restore from backup, our accounts have become unlinked. We’ve tried everything including a sharing code and nothing seems to work. Rendering the app useless without any indication as to where we can seek support.

### 1/5 — Don’t subscribe

*2024-10-24, version 6.2.5*

No updates in the last 2 years. Future uncertain. Not optimized for iOS 18.

### 1/5 — Ads?

*2021-06-01, version 6.1.4*

Hate the fact that they added ads! On the opening screen and then as you add an expense. New layout is terrible too. Before, you had a photos with what was owed underneath. Easy to quickly see. Now its a list. Will have to look for another app.

### 1/5 — L’ajout de pub

*2021-01-01, version 6.1.2*

L’ajout de pub ruine l’expérience de l’utilisateur! Bye bye expense

### 1/5 — Bad updates

*2020-08-29, version 6.0.2*

They made a new update. Overall feature stayed exactly the same, but they added ad.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2020-07-01, version 5.6.1*

The app has started glitching out and doesn’t save budget changes.

### 1/5 — Pas de sous catégorie et pas de sauvegarde sur icloud

*2019-12-28, version 5.5.4*

Une application de se type doit avoir des sous catégorie. Application incomplète.

### 1/5 — Paid for premium wouldn’t restore

*2019-10-23, version 5.5.2*

I paid for the premium feature and it won’t restore it. Please fix this right away

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 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.

### 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.

### 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.

### 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.
