★★★★★ "Ugly Icon Award. Time for a better option. The app has flat out ugly color and needs an update for the UI and icon. Looks like a child designed the color scheme. Just not an aesthetically good looking app." - Maui Kid

Ugly Icon Award
Time for a better option. The app has flat out ugly color and needs an update for the UI and icon. Looks like a child designed the color scheme. Just not an aesthetically good looking app.
Doesn’t link with bank accounts

Widget doesn’t work
I was only using this app for its quick add transactions widget, but now that it doesn't work either, the app is completely useless.
Don’t use and don’t buy
This app has many problems, and the developers ignore all customer emails and do not fix the problems, even after many months after receiving the problem report.
Do not use the trial
The app was not as intuitive as I thought . It didn’t really give me what I needed, and when I tried to cancel, I was still charged and not offered a refund. I tried to dispute, but was denied a refund.
Buggy. Not great for sharing
Very buggy and difficult to use if sharing
Trash
Fake reviews
This is not a free app like it says.
This app is falsely marketing itself as free when it’s not. A subscription is required.
Does not sync with bank accounts- even with premium!
This app requires MANUAL entry of all transactions! I paid for premium and realized this! A total waste of money in my opinion.
Don’t recommend
My husband and I wanted to track a budget… I saw there was a sharing option for this app so I brought the premium option… then I learn we both have to but it just to share the same budget. What a rip off!!!
Subscription
Why need to spend money to budget my money. Dumb
Not user friendly
I don’t like it at all
Not simple
This is not a simple easy to use budget planner.
Not working right
Can’t seem to set dollar limits on the categories… completely useless. Seems based on videos I’ve seen that it just isn’t popping up the way it should be. Payed for premium family cause I was initially impressed but I sure hope this bug gets fixed. Really can’t use the app until it does.
Don’t waste your money
I thought, based on other reviews this would be a user friendly app. It is not simple to use and does not seem to actually help keep track of anything. It’s pretty confusing and not really worth the download. The reviews giving high ratings are old and definitely not true.
Does not sync with any acccounts
I had high hopes for this simple application. At a basic expected to be able to connect to my financial accounts to download transactions. This is not a feature for this app.
I paid for premium and am disappointed.

Confusing Settings
The settings are very vague and confusing. I was trying to find the setting where my balance from the previous month rolls over to the next. So I opened a setting that says “Calendar Balance Rollover” and then it asks for a single date? Didn’t know which date to put so I just started messing around with it and none of it rolled over my balance. As I was looking at the other settings, I noticed a lot are very vague and the FAQ doesn’t provide any explanation for the settings. How am I supposed to know what toggling on “Pre-Accounted” or “Hidden Transfer Button” means?! I’m already looking for a new app to track my expenses.
A.I
lost me when the first thing shown on the app was “your personal A.I financial assistant”. no banking info needed thankfully but still a faulty computer system is what you’re putting your trust in with the financial and personal info you put in the app. who knows what they’re doing with that data (they will always say it’s harmless but we really never know who we can trust especially with our money/budget). some people are fine with A.I and they’ll probably enjoy the simplicity and easy-to-work-with program of this app. I am simply not one of those people.
Rip Off
Great app. However they said you could buy it for life. Paid the almost $10 to get it and then it deletes the option. Only one available is the yearly charge. What the heck?!!
App asks to review way too often
I am putting a review to see if it will stop asking for a review again.
It’s Ok
I honestly I couldn’t figure it out, maybe I’m just not that smart but it got frustrating trying to learn how to use it. Not for me.
To simple
This app is basically me putting my numbers on paper. All it does it have a title and then the amount, no different than if someone used paper or Word to make the exact thing. I thought it would be good to track my income but doesn’t have anything like interest built up not the app. I recommend it getting and wasting the time or money for it.
Great and cost-friendly
I’ve seen a lot of budgeting apps or sites charging way too much just for simple features. This app has a great amount of features for the literal price of a coffee. The layout is so aesthetically pleasing and easy to use, too.
