L❤️VE THIS APP!!!

Best app to help save money! The envelope system really works whether you’re saving up for something special or just wanting to pay off debt.

Updates

I love this app. Misha was great and very quick with responding to a concern I had. Misha had fixed the issue in a timely manner.

Great app but glitches

Unique functions to have individual envelopes, update your total or days even once started but it glitches quite a bit.

My experience

I like the way it looks and the concept but I can’t figure out where the money is coming from because it didn’t ask me for any bank or card info and I can’t figure out how to withdraw if I need to. It says I saved but no record of it at all.

Really well done

This is a very well done simple app. I use it when I borrow from my savings to pay off credit cards or taxes. Splitting the amount in to 90 day envelopes makes getting the money back In to savings feel more organized.

New update is bad

Having to hold down the amount to get it to register is dumb

Response from developer

I’ve just added the option to “Open on Tap” in the last update. Hope that helps! P.S. If you could update your review, that would be great. Those review really help me to develop the app :)

Not bad app to save

Not bad

Cost

I really like this app and would actually purchase it if the cost was not so much. The one time charge of $20 is excessive specifically because the design is very minimal and the current features don’t warrant the price tag. There are fully dynamic gaming apps that should cost that price and are much less.

Love the simplicity!

I’ve been using this app for about 3 months and I love it. I was looking for something super simple that will help keep me motivated and I appreciate that this DOESN’T link to my bank account like so many budgeting apps. Having to participate and take action, rather than have an app that does everything for me, has been a helpful aspect.

I’m also using it for a “30 day minimalism challenge” to purge some stuff from my apartment. I can see so many uses for this simple format.

Not very customizable

Please allow to skip and fill other envelopes before completing smaller amounts. Should be fully customizable.

Response from developer

Hello! You can fill other envelopes by shuffling them. But the idea of the challenge is that you always get a random money amount to save. If you want to fill smaller amount before bigger ones, you need to create challenge with “increasing” diatribution

Room for improvement

Got this app so my kids could keep track of their envelopes saving. There are days when they get $1.00 or $5.00 for helping around the house. Having only the option of saving a preselected amount in each envelope is not realistic for people who are using this method to save money from cash not spent at the end of each day.

Also, I had the impression that we could set several “active” challenges at once, but this is not the case.

Room for improvement,

Stay away

To many ads

Response from developer

Hello, There are completely no ads in the app.

Love love the app

But I wish there was a way to edit you challenges with out having to delete them… I wish that I could just pick a random envelope and Use that envelope… Like number 1 and number 10…

Response from developer

Hello! Thank you for review You can edit your challenges in the latest app version. Update your app and you should see the edit button in your challenge settings :)

Save money

Love this app! I look forward to opening an envelope every day and it was easy to save the money in 100 days! Going to start another round of the challenge in a few weeks :)

Can’t create my own challenge

I tried creating a challenge but it does it save after creating it? What’s the point of using this app if it doesn’t even work?

Response from developer

Hello Jeremy! I’ve upgraded Challenge creation screen in the last update, so it should be fine now. Please, take a try 🙂

Wanting this app

Upon opening the app first thing you see is a subscription fee. Reading about the app nothing states to pay for using this app. This is my budget style I was excited to use until I saw the fees.

Response from developer

Hello Rita You can use this app for free. Subscription includes only a few non-vital features such as color themes or comments. During onboarding, there is “Not Now” button on the Subscription screen. If you press it, you can use the app

Please bring back the old design

Miss the old font. Great app but now feels boring & sterile:(

Just what I needed

This app is so helpful when trying to do the envelope challenge but digitally. I was looking for an app that would randomly give an amount to save every day but I do wish their was an option to skip an envelope or at least unclick it to move on.

App is buggy

I cannot press the back arrow on most screens. I am finding the app useless. I would like a refund please. Thank you.

The functionality does not justify the price

Said in title. A quickly written app that doesn’t justify a subscription price.
