Screwed up latest version
The app doesn’t automatically login with a Face ID despite I selected option to login with Face ID this used to work in the prayer versions. Now I need to login and authenticate every time I use the app.
What is so hard about bank reconciliation??
This app has everything I need except for bank reconciliation. So many of their competitors include it! I’ve been using this app for years but dread month end when I have to manually reconcile my bank account! It can’t be that hard of a function to add!
Terrible functionality
The app somehow is not formatted for mobile. It is literally a mobile app….yet it does not work with a mobile phone. During set up and while looking at the home screen right after set up, I CANNOT SCROLL DOWN OR UP. There is plenty more to see but you can’t scroll. I almost couldn’t complete set up because it wouldn’t let me scroll down to the yes or no question.

Freezes after Entering Transaction
I use this app daily, but lately, it has become incredibly frustrating. The past few days in a row, the app completely freezes with an infinite spinning loading wheel right after I enter a transaction. I have to force close the app every single time just to get out of it, and then check to see if my entry actually saved. Please fix this bug in the next update!

Would be fantastic if it weren’t so buggy.
I like the software and really wanted to like the iPad app, but the implementation is just awful. It is so buggy, to the extent that it is practically unusable. Every task becomes either dramatically more difficult than it needs to be or impossibly broken. Even minor stuff like there UI doesn’t even fit correctly on the screen, so that text, buttons, and input boxes that are needed extend past the screen with no way to get to them show how sloppily this was put together. There are so many bugs that you just can’t get normal use from it. I tried thirty different times and ways to save dates and it worked for some properties and not for others. One of my properties refuses to allow me to add a lease to it. If this app worked like it was supposed to it would be great, but it’s honestly just a mess.

Need to fix immediately
I want to give five stars but your recent update has horrible functionality on the app for iPhone. Can you please allow transaction to be entered and corrected they way they used to be before the update. Additionally it is now requiring full sign in every time I try to log in, unlike every 30 days before. I have been using this app for over 4 years and what ever update you recently did is making me want to switch now.

Update is trash
Love Stessa, ever since it was purchased by Roofstock the quality has gone downhill. They tried so hard to make it look better and work better, but now in turn it’s a pain to work with.
Newest update brought constantly being logged out (in less than a day), notifications asking if you are ok with the picture scanned (they look perfect), and auto choosing categories (they’re always wrong).

Key Feature is an update
I truly only wanted one thing. A place to upload receipts and track expenses. Ironically the one thing I need is the upsell to PLUS… had a bunch of other features it offered that truly are nice but not needed. I felt this was backwards. The simple things should be free- the tracking value, market values,, etc are nice but not a key needed component. I’ll just go find an expense tracker. Disappointed.

Was good but….
Constantly logs me out even with facial recognition chosen… now goes to a blank screen and if I opt to delete and reload it says it will delete my Data…. What the hell good is that? If I paid the fee would it act better? Cancel culture trying to force me to pay?
Great, but
This is a great app that is easy to use, and generates excellent reports at the end of the year. However, ever since the last update there is a constant error message that prevents the ability to upload photos of receipts. This is very unfortunate!
Love it!
We’ve been using Stessa for 6 years now and we love it. We really wish the app could track time for material participation and integrate with other websites. We would pay so much more! Nudge nudge-wink wink*

The mileage amount doesn’t show correctly. I have to enter manually to correct for the year. And even if I enable FaceTime it doesn’t automatically logic next time. It keeps asking credentials and authentication
Expensive
Expensive and old fashioned looking for what it does.
Another Update Another Issue
3/30/26 Review: Another update and another issue. I have a persistent notification bug that is impossible to clear. I've tried signing out of the app, deleting the app, signing into a different account, deleting the app again, and no matter what I do I cannot get my notification to clear. Says I have 22 when my account says only 15. And to top it off I am unable to find this app in my notification settings, so I can't even disable the bubble notification for this specific app. What a mess. This app used to be so good but like everything else they just make it worse every single update.
Original Review: This used to be my go to accounting software and now I struggle to recommend it to people that ask. Every "New Features" upgrade makes current features worse, and also breaks functionality. Recording rental payments takes way too many steps, spmething that used to he pretty quick on the app, and the website is glitchy when adding transactions. Their newest update has now broken the ability to view receipts that are a PDF, something that used to work flawlessly. What is this developer team doing? I suggest all you coders to try and use your website and app like a landlord would, and hopefully you will begin to see all the bugs and issues that you keep introducing.

Newest update
Hate the new update,
The search is terrible
When you filter per property and put in the payee it resets the property searching…..

Buggy!
This app has gone way downhill. Every update they do, just makes the app function for sporadically and have more bugs.
Expensive
Customer support non existent practically
Fix your user interface
This app behaves like a desktop site forced to fit into a phone screen. Menus are cut off, you can’t see the select options, the keyboard blocks inputs. For a professional finance app, this is completely unprofessional and ridiculous to be encountering these types of interface issues 2026.

Stessa introduced significant downgrades to the interest APR on cash management account balances
The only real competitive advantage Stessa provided with its paid subscription tiers was the decent interest rates on its cash management accounts. However, the company recently notified customers that the interest rates
will now be based on account balances (in addition to still requiring a paid subscription). Pro users paying $28/m who maintain a balance under $10,000 will receive an APR of 1.33%. Pro users who wish to receive an interest rate similar to the one we were promised when purchasing the subscription would need a minimum balance of $250,000. For users who are mid-cycle on an annual plan, the company is removing a primary benefit promised during signup, which will decrease their earned interest by $181 when comparing the rate applied to a $10,000 balance now versus after the program downgrade.
