### 4/5 — Very useful tool

*2021-05-23, version 1.1.4*

I use this quite often. The only reason I didn’t give five stars is that it only goes up to 2019, and I would think 2020 data is available now  (end of May 2021.

### 4/5 — Dollar worth

*2021-04-15, version 1.1.4*

I love this app but it needs to be updated. It is now 3 years behind so it’s hard to get a real value when it doesn’t go past 2018

### 4/5 — Brilliant, but needs an update

*2020-02-18, version 1.1.2*

I use this app all the time, but it really needs to be updated with the latest data. As of now, it only goes up to 2018. I feel like the app used to updated more regularly, so I don’t know what’s going on.

### 4/5 — Update

*2020-01-17, version 1.1.2*

Will this be updated to include 2020 or at least 2019 instead of ending at 2018?

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2019-11-09, version 1.1.2*

Luv this app! Really nice when reading about what something cost in the past and can compare it to today.    April 2017 now, hope they update to 2018 soon.  Now November 2019, but not yet updated to 2019.

### 4/5 — Very Useful

*2019-03-12, version 1.1.2*

When will be update to 2019?

### 4/5 — Great app, needs update

*2015-04-15, version 1.0.7*

Great for any calculations up to and including 2014.  It would be a FIVE STAR review of it was current.

### 4/5 — Just needs one tiny thing

*2014-07-02, version 1.0.6*

App works great and the conversations are accurate, it would just be a lot easier to use if there were commas in the proper places for large numbers.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2014-03-31, version 1.0.6*

Used it while reading a story set in 1940.  The $1.00 that greased the palm of an informant is the equivalent to $16 today.

### 5/5 — Exactly what it needs to be

*2014-03-18, version 1.0.6*

Simple with a nice, clean design. Very functional.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — UPDATE NEEDED

*2021-05-09, version 1.1.4*

Good app but desperately needs an update !

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work well on iPad

*2020-04-13, version 1.1.4*

Needs update too

### 1/5 — Can Know Longer Use on iPhone

*2020-03-07, version 1.1.3*

This app has been great but since the update a few days ago I can’t use it on my iPhone. The background is almost white and the keyboard absent. The latest version update has ruined this app.

### 2/5 — Update for 2024 please

*2024-02-25, version 1.1.7*

The website uses up to date calculations, why not the app?

### 3/5 — Needs an update

*2021-05-28, version 1.1.4*

As of now the app only calculates up to 2019 so accuracy is a bit of an issue.

### 3/5 — Easy To Use BUT...

*2021-01-27, version 1.1.4*

This app is not kept up-to-date. It’s now January 27, 2021 and the app only goes up to 2019. I’d think that a BANK would want to keep their information current. PLEASE KEEP THIS APP CURRENT!

### 3/5 — Cute, but that's it.

*2016-04-11, version 1.1*

Just a simple calculator. Didn't know what to expect, but answers the question of "what did it cost be back then?" according to the consumer price index.

### 3/5 — Useful but still waiting

*2016-03-08, version 1.0.9*

Love this app and use it all the time, but still waiting for 2016 to populate. It's March. Maybe by April? Fingers crossed.

### 4/5 — Almost Gave 5 Stars

*2024-08-05, version 1.1.8*

I love how the app does not collect any data, and it works as it is supposed to, but it only goes down to the early 1900s—not even to 1900. It would get five stars if it had information from at least the 1800s, but ideally to 1776. Other than that, I recommend this app.

### 4/5 — Useful BUT Needs To Be Updated

*2024-02-04, version 1.1.7*

Only goes to 2022. This us 2024. Please update. It’s a great app and very useful. PLEASE UPDATE.

### 5/5 — Woo Hoo. It Updated!!!!

*2024-05-07, version 1.1.8*

Had been running the 2019 version and now that this puppy has been brought current you can keep track of just what kind of number this lame Biden presidency is doing to the value of your moolah. (LET’S GO BRANDON) - - - Oct 21 - - -

### 5/5 — Simple, easy to use, trust worthy source

*2024-03-06, version 1.1.8*

And prior reviews complained that it wasn’t being updated often but it seems that the 2023 CPI info was added in Feb 2024, which is pretty good since they have to wait for the year to end and do final calculations to have that year’s official CPI.

### 5/5 — Woo Hoo. It Updated!!!!

*2021-10-31, version 1.1.6*

### 5/5 — Simple

*2021-06-08, version 1.1.5*

Great app that just works. It has one specific function of calculating inflation and that's all I need.

### 5/5 — Great resource!

*2021-03-30, version 1.1.4*

Please update!!!

### 5/5 — Good

*2020-04-17, version 1.1.4*

But Plz add 2020 though

### 5/5 — Elegant and useful

*2019-06-26, version 1.1.2*

Delivers exactly what it promises, and saves looking up an inflation calculator. If only all apps worked this well. 

Wishlist: cut the Calculate button because it’s redundant.

### 5/5 — Very useful app

*2019-03-07, version 1.1.2*

A very useful and and great teaching tool.
Hoping to see an update soon for 2019

### 5/5 — Really useful free inflation calculator

*2018-11-05, version 1.1.2*

This is a very useful calculator that quickly lets you see how inflation has increased from one year to the next. 

It’s simple to use, very useful and reasonably well designed. I hope they continue to update it for the foreseeable future.

### 5/5 — clean and convenient

*2017-04-30, version 1.1.1*

no cluttery graphics so it's to easy to use and updated for 2017.
