### 3/5 — Personal checking

*2024-06-20, version 8.0*

I use it for my personal checking. At first it was difficult to navigate and I used double accounting until I got used to it  It does have some issues - ie when I set up auto payments it does not pull over to next month for accounting until the pay date, so sometimes have duplicate recordings. Also the last update is frustrating - why change something that’s not broken?  I do not like this update at all!  Overall, though, it’s a good replacement for my checkbook as I make all my payments through bill pay

### 4/5 — No Check Register

*2024-01-23*

Good app for keeping track of your funds. I no longer use a check register or need to review electronic bank statements.

### 4/5 — Easy to use

*2023-06-27, version 7.0.1*

The app has been good for me so far. It beats having to write things down in a checkbook ledger and it’s convenient to have on the go.

### 4/5 — No Check Register

*2023-04-16*

Good app for keeping track of your funds. I no longer use a check register or need to review electronic bank statements.

### 4/5 — Hmmmmmm

*2023-04-14, version 7.0.1*

Updated rating:  I paid for PRO version but still all the silly video watching to add an account etc…ugh…BUT…. I love the settings icon to back up my info every time I add information!! That is so much better than the other checkbook app…

### 4/5 — No More Paper Registers

*2023-02-27, version 7.0.1*

Love this app!  Easy to balance with online banking.

### 4/5 — Checkbook

*2023-01-24, version 7.0*

I use it for my stock shares. Except for the check in which slows it up, it works quite well. I am able to use my dividends and auto shares and promotional shares very easily. I also like the update which now allows me to see every increase and decrease rather than monthly n

### 3/5 — Balances

*2022-12-13, version 6.0*

App is good but it needs to have a running balance total with each transaction

### 4/5 — Very easy to use.

*2022-07-06, version 6.0*

This is a simple app to track a checking account.

### 5/5 — Rating

*2022-05-01, version 6.0*

So far this has been a great download. It's very easy to set up and use. We can pull it up to see exactly what we have to work with and where .

### 5/5 — FLORIENNE MOZO

*2022-04-12, version 6.0*

WORKS WELL

### 5/5 — Quick Checkbook for iPad

*2022-01-16, version 6.0*

Enjoy the App, makes balancing my checkbook a breeze.

### 5/5 — Easy to use!

*2021-12-17, version 6.0*

The more we use this app the more we like it. The people who developed it must be actual residents of this world, because people like me can actually learn to use it. And they must have vibrant imaginations, because the the presentation is not just a B&W Columnar pad on a computer screen.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-08-20, version 8.0*

Ad pops up before I get to use the app and won’t let me use the app. Won’t let me out of the ad.

### 1/5 — Crashed

*2024-12-24, version 8.0*

Crashed and we lost our stuff.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-11-30, version 8.0*

I had this app for some time and recently it seems to have a mind of its own; specifically with regard to recurring payments. Despite setting it all up correctly, the payments were duplicated, haphazard and sometimes didn't even appear. The last straw came when suddenly the app said I had considerably less money than my bank statement showed. I was unable to sort it out because it was such a mess, I decided to go for the upgraded version. I have now installed this, and find it is even worse! Despite paying a subscription, I get ads all the time, even on the Home Screen, and I've just checked the app and it's taken two lots of monthly recurring payments out and in within days of each other! I've contacted support who haven't even responded to me. I do not feel confident using the app as there clearly seems to be some underlying issue and I cannot trust the information it provides about my account. I will be changing as soon as I find one that has excellent reviews.

### 1/5 — Checkbook with no sync

*2024-10-02, version 8.0*

This would be useful if it had banking sync. There appears to be no instructions and you to enter all bank transactions manually.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2024-06-29, version 8.0*

Too many ads. Deleted app.

### 1/5 — NOT User Friendly!

*2024-05-24, version 8.0*

I wanted a simple checkbook app, but this is not it.  It’s not intuitive.  I tried to set up a simple personal checking account and it was so frustrating that I finally gave up.  Confusing and not well thought out.  It gave me great pleasure to delete this app.  I wish Quicken had an app like the old program.  GRRRRR!!!!!

### 1/5 — Latest update

*2022-12-07, version 6.0*

It is not! User friendly  very hard to use

### 1/5 — Poor layout. Needs work.

*2021-01-23, version 5.0*

The interface is a bit messy. Can’t find any way to set it up as I would like it. A couple of boxes that I don’t really need to be open.  No running balance. If you enter transactions for the future, it won’t display the balance on each transaction so, if you want to know your balance on a date in the future, it doesn’t show it. The calendar is a sort of rotating effort with 3 columns, one for date, one for month and one for year. It’s really fiddly and that alone would make me not want to buy it. Print outs are good but don’t include a running balance. With a bit of tweaking, this could be a decent app.

### 1/5 — Not for me

*2020-02-19, version 4.0*

Not what I was looking for 

Might work for others

### 1/5 — Stupid and useless

*2019-02-08, version 4.0*

Too many useless things to have to deal with. 
Hard to find the basic information I need due to useless charts and graphs, etc.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Keep track of possible tax deductions

*2026-04-11, version 8.0*

I use this register to keep track of any tax related items, no matter what account I use to pay from.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-04-30, version 8.0*

This is very simple and cool to manage all your expenses, business and personal

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-04-11, version 8.0*

Simply stated, this is a great app.  It is very simple to use once you get used to it.  A true time saver as compared to pen/paper checkbook register. I like how you can create subcategories if what you want to categorize your expense or credit as isn’t available.

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2024-01-14, version 8.0*

Just downloaded and trying to set up all my accounts. Looking like this will work for me. Easy to set up so far.

### 5/5 — Can’t beat the price!

*2023-11-20, version 8.0*

The fact that the App is free is a big deal to us. I’m a septuagenarian and it took a little time to get used to the format. But now it’s easy. It’s great to be able to print the various reports. We don’t mind the brief commercials.

### 5/5 — A simple app to avoid NSF penalties.

*2023-02-16, version 7.0.1*

Very easy to track your account balance. Could be more intuitive, e.g. account, category after you entered Payee/Payer.

### 5/5 — Love Quickbooks

*2023-02-10, version 7.0.1*

Easy to use, even for older person not particularly computer savvy.  Simple and easy to use to keep track of checking and credit card transactions.

### 5/5 — Better then Quicken

*2023-01-18, version 7.0*

I have been using for a week now and I love it better that my paid subscription to Quicken.  They do very similar things for me, not why pay $50 yearly when this gem does it for free.  Love it!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-01-11, version 6.0*

Love this app!

### 5/5 — Quick and Easy to Use

*2022-08-29, version 6.0*

I lost access to my online checking account and needed a way to monitor my finances. I’ve been using it for a few weeks and I’m very happy.
