### 5/5 — Easy and shareable

*2024-08-18, version 3.1.10*

Super easy to use and you can share budgets with your partner or friends

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-12-26*

Excellent app, very practical way to use an envelopes style budgeting system in a digital way

**Developer response:** We're glad you like it!

### 5/5 — Best and easiest to use budget app so far

*2022-10-25, version 3.1.7*

Please add Dark Mode and the ability to split purchases among different categories, thank you!

### 5/5 — Finally a simple budget app that actually looks good

*2021-12-01, version 3.1.6*

This budget app is super simple and gets straight to the point - exactly what I need and it looks great too! I love the minimal clean design! 
It’s simple enough to use/understand but also gives me everything I need to track my daily/weekly spending! Thanks :-)

### 4/5 — Love the App, but Syncing w/ Shared Contacts Finicky

*2021-05-24, version 3.1.6*

Love the simplicity of this app. It is perfect for my wife and I to manage individual budgets, a family budget, etc. Best features - ability to create a simple monthly recurring budget, and to share & collaborate specific budgets with anyone.

Only gripe is that the app uses iCloud for data storage. This is great for an individual budget, and smart for sharing with others (you are essentially just sharing the file)… but the problem is that updates are not always synced in real time. Would be nice to have an option to use Google Cloud or Dropbox for instance, and have the app pull/push whenever the budget changes.

### 4/5 — Incredibly Useful & Simple to Use

*2021-02-13*

Prax has become our monthly expenses tracker for general spend, and it’s great! It’s super easy to use has a wonderful UI and you can share budgets, something we need as a family.

The only way to improve it is to allow reorganisation of budgets, and to include a widget that can show how much is left in a specific budget.

### 5/5 — Great!!

*2020-06-25, version 3.1.0*

Took a bit of adjusting, but this budgeting app really works for me. It’s simple and does exactly what I want it to do.

### 5/5 — Thanks for Developers who created this app.

*2020-04-27, version 3.0.1*

Thank you very much for creating this app. 

Not only is the UI/UX easy, but the intuitive screen is also great. Even though I'm Korean,  the Prax is the best I have ever used. I look forward to be support for the international currency as soon as possible :) 

Thank you.

### 5/5 — Better than typical credit card linked apps

*2020-03-17, version 3.0.1*

Beautiful interface. I personally thought it was a bit tricky at first but after 5 minutes realized how intuitive it is. Also like the ability to add photos and geotag where you spent. It sort of allows me to make it a sort of diary which makes it a little more fun to use

### 3/5 — Can be way better

*2020-03-12, version 3.0.0*

I like how you can set budgets and expenses. But it’s annoying not being able to see total spent per month. I have to add up each individual expense just to see how much I’ve spent this month. It’s really annoying. Please add a total spent viewer for the expense tracker. 

And can we also get a per week option?
