### 4/5 — Gute App.

*2026-06-21*

Strukturiert aufgebaut, die Inhalte einfach und klar dargestellt. Was ich nicht finden konnte, sind Felder für geplante Verkäufe von Immobilien zum oder vor dem Ruhestand oder z.B. Erlöse von Lebensversicherungen.

### 3/5 — Mal schauen

*2026-01-07*

Mal schauen. Habe als erstes mal grob die Finanzen eingegeben (damit muss ich mich noch näher beschäftigen) und einen flexiblen Rentenstart gewählt. Das vorhandene Kapital soll ja für einen vorzeitigen Renteneintritt genutzt werden, somit verstehe ich es nicht, dass sich das vorhandene Kapital (Ruhestandsvermögen) in der Berechnung gut verfünffacht (Restvermögen), obwohl es ja eigentlich weniger werden müsste.

Update: habe mich nun mehr mit den Eingaben beschäftigt und irgendetwas bleibt seltsam, wenn die monatlichen Ausgaben im Schnitt z.B. 3300 € betragen wird das Ruhestandsvermögen weniger, ändert man die Ausgaben auf 2000 € verdoppelt sich das Ruhestandsvermögen. Da stimmt doch irgendetwas in der Berechnung nicht. Das scheint mir tatsächlich unrealistisch zu sein, und somit stelle ich für mich die Nützlichkeit der App infrage.

**Developer response:** Hallo algo1966, danke dir für deine ausführliche Bewertung und dass du so genau hingeschaut hast. Das Verhalten kann je nach deinen Eingaben tatsächlich so wirken, weil die Ergebnisse stark von den Parametern abhängen, zum Beispiel von den Steigerungsraten je Anlageklasse. Zusätzlich können die Einstellungen zum Kapitalverzehr verwirren, weil im Ruhestand bestimmte Anlageklassen dadurch eventuell nicht aufgebraucht werden und weiter im Wert steigen.

Melde dich doch bitte kurz mit deinem Fall an info@workend.app, dann schauen wir uns deine Eingaben und die Berechnung im Detail an und können klären, was bei dir passiert.

Viele Grüße, Tobi von WorkEnd

### 5/5 — Rente

### 5/5 — Countdown!

*2025-10-31*

Accurate and fun!

**Developer response:** Hello BK57#1,
thank you very much for your review. Wishing you all the best on your way to retirement. 
Warm regards,

### 5/5 — Die Rente kann kommen

*2025-10-24*

Fairer Preis um seine Rente sinnvoll planen zu können.

**Developer response:** Hallo BaPeMi, 
vielen Dank für deine Bewertung. Wir freuen uns, dass du Workend nutzt, um im Rentenalter abgesichert zu sein. Viel Erfolg dabei! 
Liebe Grüße
Anna von WorkEnd

### 5/5 — Bewertung der App.

*2025-08-10*

Hallo Leute,
wirklich eine super App.

Gruß Livio

**Developer response:** Hi Livio,
wie schön zu hören, dass dir WorkEnd gefällt! Herzlichen Dank für deine Bewertung und viel Erfolg für deinen Weg in den wohlverdienten Ruhestand. 
Viele Grüße, 
Anna von WorkEnd

### 2/5 — Verbesserungsfähig/Fehlerhaft

*2025-07-11*

Schöne App, aber es fehlt die Möglichkeit, das ganze für ein (Ehe) Paar zu berechnen. Mit Eingabe beider persönlicher Daten und jeweiligem Renteneintrittsalter.
Barvermögen steigt in der Berechnung, obwohl keine Sparrate eingetragen ist. Bitte den Fehler korrigieren.

**Developer response:** Hallo,
vielen Dank für deine Bewertung und deinen Verbesserungsvorschlag. Wir überlegen, wie wir das am besten umsetzen können.

Zu deinem Punkt mit dem Barvermögen: Wahrscheinlich steigt es in der Ruhestandsphase, oder? Das ist so gewollt. Wenn deine regelmäßigen Einnahmen, z. B. aus Rente oder anderen Quellen, höher sind als deine Ausgaben, bleibt Geld übrig und das erhöht dein Barvermögen. Wenn du noch weitere Fragen hast, kannst du uns auch gerne eine Email an info@workend.app schreiben.

Viele Grüße,
Anna von WorkEnd

### 5/5 — Good countdown

*2025-07-02*

Decent but more work needed on the widgets to make them customizable. 

Update: last update fixed the widget.  Had previously uninstalled and reinstalled with no effect. This update fixed it.

**Developer response:** Hi mrstinkypantstoyou,
it seems there's a bug on Apple’s side that can sometimes prevent the widget from showing up for some users. In many cases, restarting the device and then re-adding the widget helps. We’re really glad to hear it’s working for you now. Thanks so much for updating your review, we truly appreciate it.
Wishing you all the best on your way to retirement.
All the best,
Anna from WorkEnd
