QDD is a bookkeeping app for private tutors — piano teachers, language tutors, anyone who teaches one-on-one and has to keep track of who paid for what. It ties three things together that usually live in three different places: the lessons you schedule, the lessons you actually taught, and the payments that came in. Every payment is matched to the lessons it covers, so when a parent asks "what do we owe?" the answer is already there. WHAT IT DOES • Students and families — one record per family, with its students, their regular lesson time, hourly price and your notes. • Calendar — recurring lessons are generated for you; reschedule, cancel or mark attendance in a tap. • Payments — log each payment as it arrives (cash, check, Zelle, Venmo, bank transfer, WeChat Pay, Alipay…) and see exactly which lessons it covers and how much is still outstanding. • Per lesson or prepaid — bill each family per lesson or from a prepaid block of lessons; the app tells you when a family's balance is running low. • Monthly statements — a clean PDF per family showing lessons taught and money received, ready to send. • Parent emails, sent in your name — lesson reminders, statements, payment confirmations and schedule changes. Every parent first receives a short notice explaining what they will get, with a link to opt out of any of it. • Activity history — every change is recorded, so you can always see what happened and when. • Face ID unlock, English and Chinese, and an export of your data whenever you want it. WHAT IT DOES NOT DO QDD never touches your money. It is not a payment processor and never asks for card or bank details — a payment record simply describes money that already changed hands somewhere else. Parents and students do not get accounts, and no other tutor can ever see your records. WHO IT IS FOR Independent tutors with roughly ten to forty students who are done with spreadsheets, chat threads and mental arithmetic at the end of every month. Made by CrumbQuest LLC.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: QDD at 100% against PIMSY's 0%. QDD also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (58 vs 1). PIMSY's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
PIMSY holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QDD has 58 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of PIMSY's written reviews are positive against 100% of QDD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PIMSY ships an update every 2 months, QDD every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
