Useful and Accessible

SmartBuddy is such a useful and accessible app for parents looking to simplify the daily, weekly, or monthly allowance transaction for their kids!

I recommend this platform for all those who want to make allowances an easy matter, at the same time giving kids easy access to their saving and spending logs, along with the ability to set saving goals.

This, paired with the SmartBuddy Watch, is perfect for kids and parents alike!

Awful

The first app I’ve been compelled to write about because it is so awful to use. The intent is obviously in the right place but how can anybody make an app these days as poor as this and with instructions that make absolutely no sense with the interface. Why bother
