1. [R7] Honeydue 1/5 · US Constant Bank Sync Issues: This app would be great if the connection to the bank didn’t fail every few days. You constantly need to check if your accounts are synced. If it breaks, sometime the re-sync option works. Other times you need to reconnect from scratch, which is also hit or miss. None of these options are explained anywhere so figuring out where to look and which wires to jiggle is a pai
2. [R9] Honeydue 3/5 · US The bank balance are always wrong: Even after refreshing still shows the wrong number
3. [R10] Honeydue 1/5 · US Always loses sync: Awful finance app. Only maintain sync with accounts for a week or two and then refuses to update. Truly useless, do not download.
4. [R22] Honeydue 2/5 · US Poor integration quality: constant desync friction: The app crates a lot of friction due to banks constantly getting desynchronized with useless message “email us” appearing (I tried to email - no response), you have to remove affected banks every month or so and add them back, resetting all tx retagging you have done
5. [R1] Honeydue 2/5 · US Great App! But I Can’t Get Support.: I really want to continue using Honeydue because I believe it has the features we need. Unfortunately, I’m locked out of my account because my two-factor authentication is tied to an old phone number that I no longer have access to. I’ve contacted support multiple times requesting help updating my authentication information but haven’t received a response.
6. [R3] Honeydue 3/5 · US Too many glitches: When splitting categories it keeps reverting back to original category. Can’t edit comments. Customer service doesn’t respond to emails for help.
7. [R11] Honeydue 4/5 · US Best couples finance app I've found: This app is the best for financial visibility among multiple accounts owned by different people. My only issue is that the app support has been nonexistent. I've emailed app support multiple times with questions and minor issues and haven't received a single response.
8. [R13] Honeydue 1/5 · US No support: I really liked this app and used it all the time but it suddenly stopped being able to refresh my account a month ago. I tried emailing support twice and got no reply. I’ll update my review if they ever end up fixing it! (Update: still no reply. Do not trust this app with your bank details because clearly they do not care. Deleting this app now .)
9. [R2] Honeydue 4/5 · US Super helpful, could have a few fixes: This app has been super helpful for splitting expenses since my partner and I moved in together. One frustrating issue I have is I can’t figure out how to see what my total expenses have been for the month (aka my individual expenses + our split joint expenses). I can only see the total I have spent from my bank accounts (before splitting any expenses). Or th
10. [R14] Honeydue 4/5 · US Nice but needs a few improvements.: This is a nice option for couples who need an app to track finances. I like the app but when entering purchases they’re not in order. They go into a random order which isn’t helpful when tracking with two people. Also I wish there was an option for pending charges. The bill section is a very nice feature. I like it alot but the other issues have caused me to lo
11. [R15] Honeydue 3/5 · US Barely Sufficient: Chose HoneyDue because of the ability to combine financial accounts with my partner into one app. The app has much to be desired. The auto-categorization is terrible, reports are basic, there is no month over month or Trent view. No way to export for deeper analysis in other apps. It’s not very smart overall which requires you to make a lot of manual updates. Wish there was a be
12. [R26] Honeydue 4/5 · US Export: Would like to be to export so we could do comparisons in a spreadsheet for year-to-year comparisons. Love the program - we can work on household bills together.
13. [R41] Honeydue 4/5 · US Suggestion: I have used this app for a few years. There should be a way to update the amount of a bill going forward versus all the historic amounts. This does not show a true past budget. Also, the only way to end a bill is to delete it. Once again, that skews historic budgets. If you would make these changes on a future update, I feel like it would be helpful to everyone that uses the app.
14. [R6] Honeydue 3/5 · US No Browser: I like the app and idea of having a pkaces to text each other about bills so its all in one place but really wish you can access it on a computer. Which would be great when doing initial setup or working on categories etc… but until that happensI will have to continue using rocketmoney.
15. [R29] Honeydue 5/5 · US Keep up the good work!: Enjoy working with this app and sharing with spouse. Would like to see this in Microsoft App Store and Mac as well.
16. [R4] Honeydue 2/5 · US No division: Apparently, if you break up with your significant other, the app has no way to separate you, and they could easily have access to view your bills unless you manually change it for each bill. Even when I asked for assistance, they said it’s not possible to separate that other person from the account.
17. [R52] Paired 4/5 · US Helpful: I love using this app with my husband, even though our marriage is in a great place it shows things that otherwise might not come up if we weren’t prompted to answer these kinds of questions. I love that it reminds you to answer questions and gives you a timer on your lock screen before you loose your streak. I love the types of questions and conversations we have based on the questions.
18. [R53] Paired 3/5 · US Free version: This app is cool except there is nothing to “enjoy” if you can’t afford premium. The only thing available is the daily discussions. There is nothing other options or sections available. I would love to be able to purchase access but our budget would not allow it. Please make more available to those that can’t afford it.
19. [R54] Paired 2/5 · US I love it but I hate that they want to charge you to have more access: My husband and I love answering the daily question and we use what we can that’s free. I just wish they didn’t have to charge to access more.
20. [R56] Paired 3/5 · US Married: I gave it a 3 because I believe the app is more for beginning couples or relationships rather than married couples even though it’s advertised like it is. If you say you’re married I believe the questions & formatting should be different. (Just a suggestion) on the other hand if you’re trying to rekindle and get to know your partner for who they have become I can see where it might aid
21. [R65] NerdWallet 1/5 · US Worst financial app out there: I never leave reviews but this one is an exception. This app is genuinely the biggest pile of garbage ever made by humanity. A random intern can come up with a better UX. The user journey is a labyrinth, all screen space is occupied by 90% and 10% useful information. It’s as if the whole app was made by a team of 10 program managers all competing for scope. U need
22. [R66] NerdWallet 5/5 · US Cd: Convenient
23. [R67] NerdWallet 3/5 · US Not consumer-focused anymore: I loved this app and the website when I found it in 2020. It shows me my net worth, my credit score, etc. In the past year or so they have made a lot of changes that all seem to be based on making them a profit rather than serving their customers. Most things I look for on the website are now only on the app. I used their shopping features to find the most beneficial
24. [R68] NerdWallet 1/5 · US Unstable, resource hog: Phone turns into a hand warmer after launching and until it’s force quit. Unable to reliably switch between tabs or view accounts since the last couple updates.
25. [R79] Monarch 2/5 · US I’m not paying for this: I’m sure the app is great, but if I am trying to find financial help because I am struggling with money, why in the freaking world would I pay a subscription. I am struggling. I don’t need ANOTHER thing to pay for. My goodness.
26. [R80] Monarch 5/5 · US Must Have for Budgeting: Far and away the best budgeting app I have ever used. Every feature you could dream of has been added and it is perfect for managing finances with a spouse. The team behind Monarch is constantly pushing updates and clearly takes great pride in their work.
27. [R81] Monarch 3/5 · US It worked when it was new: I have reported the same problems 2 or 3 times. App is not applying payments to debt accounts and reducing balance. App has stopped retaining info about paydown goals and does not show it listed and does not reducing balance. App does not want to show my progress at eliminating debt. It is like an ex who hacks your finances and creates chaos so you feel hopeless. It loo
28. [R82] Monarch 1/5 · US Hate apps that do this: I hate it when your trying to find a good app for something and find an app with great reviews and is perfect for what you need so you down load it just to find out that you have to pay for it. It’s one of the worst experiences and you could just put the price where you download it so everyone knows
29. [R93] EveryDollar 1/5 · US Math ain’t mathing: I have the free version but even the basics don’t work right. You would think that putting money into savings would remove it from your remaining amount to spend. But it doesn’t. For example if I say I’m budgeting 1,000 this month. And I put 100 in savings. It should say I have 900 left to spend. But it still says 1000 in my remaining budget. I hate having to do brain gymnastic
30. [R94] EveryDollar 5/5 · US Additional tools needed: I would love it if you all added the Ramsey tools like net worth, amortization, and interest calculators. I usually would do a quick search, but it would be easier for me and others to find. Also, if you could incorporate the Ramsey AI.
31. [R95] EveryDollar 3/5 · US Great concept, but app needs work: I’m very grateful for this app, and at the same time I have various qualms with its many quirks, which are numerous enough that on the daily I tend to ask myself if it would be easier to write myself an Excel sheet for this purpose. And I pay for premium. For example: the default view of this app should not be the “today” page. This is a learning summary page. I
32. [R96] EveryDollar 2/5 · US It keeps getting worse: It used to be incredible and it’s still decent but the ads and “fixes” are becoming less user friendly. It’s also not been working on my phone for 3 days.
33. [R107] YNAB 1/5 · US Budgeting apps are pointless if they don’t work: What is the point of a budgeting app that consistently fails account verification and has a black hole help desk? Couldn’t verify my bank after three attempts over several hours, and no reply from support. After reading some of the recent reviews, it’s clear that the free year I got for being in grad school was still too expensive. Pen and paper wil
34. [R108] YNAB 5/5 · US Never worry about $: I love the ease of use! Whenever I go through budgets with other people, I always recommend an investment in YNAB!
35. [R109] YNAB 3/5 · US Please allow Fidelity connection: I have multiple accounts that i need to manually add transactions
36. [R110] YNAB 1/5 · US What’s the point: “Can’t connect to my institutions” - a major bank? And the pop up literally says “this kind of error takes time to resolve so you should connect another account”. Well I only have one account so what good does this do me? What a waste of time.
37. [R17] Honeydue 5/5 · US Amazing free finance tracking for Couples: This app is amazing, simple, a little clunky but the value and tools it provides is the basis for being mindful about spending. Alerts aren’t as quick, transactions don’t update rapid fast. But it works well and the ability to comment and react to individual transactions makes a chore fun for both of us.
38. [R12] Honeydue 3/5 · US Calendar Option: It is great free app, I just wish the calendar could align with pay days instead of Sunday - Saturday. So like Thursday - Wednesday or Friday - Thursday. It helps budgeting be more realistic and less likely to miss something.
39. [R35] Honeydue 5/5 · US Amazing Free App: Former Mint user who moved to Quicken Simplifi which was amazing, however it got a lot more expensive and had some connectivity issues so I decided to try this and was amazed by how I could do all the same customizations with this app and get almost sll the same features. I hope in the future the following is added: 1- ability to connect to Amazon store card 2- ability to refresh
40. [R44] Honeydue 5/5 · US The best for free ( I tried a lot of apps) this one is amazing!: I have testing several budget app and this one for free absolute best recommend
41. [R16] Honeydue 2/5 · US Broken & Missing Transactions: Honeydue is nice for couples who have different operating systems (iPhone vs Android). However, this application has always been buggy and very rigid. Most recently, I have not been able to view my September 2025 and November 2025 Transactions. I click on the month and the app displays Oct or Dec ‘25. Because of this I missed large purchases that should have been spl
