1. [R6] EveryDollar 3/5 · US Limited: This ap is great as a budgeting tool. I don’t like that if I manually enter a debit or credit then it will duplicate and not match it when my bank feeds come through. This is a serious flaw if I’m supposed to know exactly what I’m spending! It also doesn’t have a normal ledger. It tracks the budget for the month and it shows transactions but it doesn’t show a running balance. I don’t like
2. [R10] EveryDollar 2/5 · US Plaid was a bad move: I’ve used this app for many years now, and since they made the switch recently to using Plaid to connect accounts to the app, it’s borderline useless. I want all of my posted transactions in my app once they’re posted to my bank account, not days and days later.
3. [R13] EveryDollar 2/5 · US Account syncing is broken: Some banks and accounts are not supported. When some banks are supported but experience significantly or frequent issues, the support team blame the bank and suggest switching banks. The app frequently pulls in duplicate transactions that have to be cleaned up every day. The app uses Plaid which doesn’t allow individual connections, such as mfa for me and mfa for my spou
4. [R21] EveryDollar 3/5 · US Applecard Support Please: Please please please integrate Applecard support for automatic transaction sync. That is my main payment method for everyday transactions & support is built into iOS directly. YNAB currently supports it but I can’t transition to EveryDollar until it’s been implemented. Please 🙏
5. [R3] EveryDollar 3/5 · US Reorder: I used to love the ease of this app when it comes to reordering my budget. After the up date, while I can still re-order my budget, I can’t see the balances/total. Therefore, I cannot reorder for my big ticket items to come first. I used to be able to move everything around while being able to see the balances/total.
6. [R4] 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.
7. [R18] EveryDollar 3/5 · US Split broken, transfer needed: The split function for transactions is somewhat broken. It will accept it if you input the correct amounts but it will no longer do the assist in helping you input the remaining amount for the split. Also in order to do transfers from one account to another i have to do a convoluted process to make it work because there is no transfer function. Like, if i have mone
8. [R19] EveryDollar 2/5 · US Incomplete and slow: After many years of using this app, I am still at a loss for why there is not a built-in reconciling feature. Also quite frustrated that this app runs slowly given such a simple design.
9. [R7] EveryDollar 1/5 · US Not free: Got this to use as a simple check register billed as free. NOT FREE but you don’t find out until you’ve set up an account and given tons of information.
10. [R15] EveryDollar 3/5 · US Premium: It’s really annoying being asked to sign up for premium every time I log into the app. Please don’t do this.
11. [R27] EveryDollar 3/5 · US Naggy: I like this app, I really do. Been using it for a while. But more and more it’s been nagging me constantly to upgrade to premium. No thanks - I don’t want that, so stop asking me about it. Now, they are making me go through and answer a bunch of questions at app launch just to use it - no way to skip or opt out. I don’t want this. I just want a good, free budgeting app like this used to be.
12. [R37] EveryDollar 1/5 · US Cost to use: Cost to use
13. [R12] EveryDollar 3/5 · US Annoyed!: I am very annoyed that now, in order to use the app, my phone has to be updated to a version that it does not support. Which means you people, who think that we shouldn't be spending money, now want me to spend money on a new phone in order to use your app. Ironic? I think so.
14. [R20] EveryDollar 5/5 · US I used to use this app…and now I can again!: For a company that stresses using money wisely, I’m surprised that your app can no longer be used with older iPhones. My iPhone 8 model is hardware-incompatible with iOS 17 and iOS 18, which I guess means you think I need to spend money unnecessarily on a new phone in order to keep using your app. Edit: thanks for changing your iOS 17 requirement so I
15. [R28] EveryDollar 1/5 · US Unable to update on my old IPad: I have used this app daily for at least 7 years and am unable to update now as I am required to do to view my Budget. It states I must. I don’t have the latest operating system due to lack of memory. My grandchildren’s pictures will not be deleted to allow that upgrade. I do not need or want all the new Ramsey tips so hadn’t upgraded previously and was able to use
16. [R35] EveryDollar 1/5 · US UPDATE PROBLEM: The new app does not work for my iPhone. Now I am not able to access my account on Every Dollar. I am not HAPPY ABOUT THIS.
17. [R14] EveryDollar 4/5 · US Monthly: Expenses vs Income: I rarely write reviews for apps, but I felt this one deserved it. One of the biggest shortcomings is the lack of a simple monthly income vs. expense summary. I shouldn’t have to view my finances in three-month increments just to understand how I did in a single month. I want to be able to see exactly how much I earned, how much I spent, and what my net total was for th
18. [R52] Rocket Money 5/5 · US It’s real: Rocket is saving me $50+ a month from subscriptions I didn’t know I had
19. [R58] Rocket Money 5/5 · US Rocket Money Worth Every Penny!: Rocket Money has really helped to organize our finances, see our spending clearly and take charge of how and when we spend our money! Alerts are extremely helpful! If you desire to take control of your money instead of having your money control you, then Rocket Money is a must have!! Absolutely love this app!! 5 stars is not enough!!
20. [R61] Rocket Money 5/5 · US No worries about what/when a bill is coming out!: It is a comfort to see at anytime when money is coming out of your account. Right at your fingertips,no searching for a bill - knowing what's coming i out and how much leeway I have for spending without over drawing.
21. [R66] Monarch 5/5 · US great beginner personal finance: there are so many money tracking apps but this one has been the most helpful, especially for figuring out your net worth
22. [R69] Monarch 5/5 · US Great Tool: I switched to Monarch after Mint was discontinued. I initially wasn’t too interested in a paid service, but Monarch is fantastic for budgeting and doing personal finance at $100 a year. Well worth the price.
23. [R72] Monarch 5/5 · US So easy: I’ve tried my fair share of budgeting apps over the years. Monarch has been the only one that has all the features I’ve wanted. It connects easily to all of our banking institutions, including credit cards. It also has the capability to have rollover funds for larger, less frequent purchases like end of year expenses/taxes. I also like that it calculates our net worth, showing the mont
24. [R75] Monarch 5/5 · US Best Financial App: Monarch has been a game changer for my family’s finances! I used to manually track expenses using excel and it got to be too much. Monarch simplifies all of those tasks and much much more. Between net worth tracking, the visual displays, and the built in AI tool you will not regret the move to Monarch!
25. [R80] YNAB 5/5 · US Changed our finances: I am a CPA. I am familiar with budgeting in general so I was looking for an app that would meet my high standards in what I think a budget should be. This exceeds expectations! Using this app has allowed us to save enough money to invest in a higher interest savings account. The monthly interest earned exceeds the monthly cost of this app. This app pays for itself!
26. [R83] YNAB 5/5 · US Fun, Practical, Helpful: I really like this budgeting app. It teaches you a thing or two about budgeting. I am putting into practice zero-cash dollar budgeting. I have found some difficulty connecting to cards using MX, when not supported by plaid (Sam’s Club Mastercard). I love the way I can reflect on the month as a whole and see where I overspent or did very well in. I would request a new fe
27. [R88] YNAB 5/5 · US Life Changing: The app is fairly simple to use and easy to navigate. It takes discipline as does every budgeting system, but it does its job well. I went from wondering how much disposable income I had at any given point and being stressed about bills, to having 6 months of bills covered, a travel fun, savings, plus disposable income for the random nights out and impulse buys. I finally tapped int
28. [R90] YNAB 5/5 · US YNAB: Unparalleled flexibility, conviviality and design. World’s #1 budgeting App. A useful tool for monitoring the progress of your assets.
29. [R94] Ramsey Network 5/5 · US Hopeful: I get so emotional hearing the plan of attack given to callers that have the smallest or largest debt. I’m sure it gets them excited and gives them hope. Also, I love all the personalities, but my faves are Ken & Jade. I’m Ken’s age and he makes me feel so cool…😂Seriously though, you all have changed my life❤️
30. [R97] Ramsey Network 5/5 · US APP DEVELOPERS: PLEASE READ FOR HELPFUL FEEDBACK!: As far as the content offered on the Ramsey app, it is absolute gold. I don’t know of any other app or resource that can give you solid advice and guidance on your money, your relationships, your work, your business and so on. I wish I’d had something like this when I was in my teens to help build a solid foundation and a framework for how I neede
31. [R106] Ramsey Network 5/5 · US Great Sow: Been a fan for years. Sound principles and thank you.
32. [R108] Money Manager Expense & Budget 4/5 · US Excellent: This works perfectly
33. [R111] Money Manager Expense & Budget 4/5 · US Best budget buddy: The app is just perfect, i wished if i could see more figures and my spending habits Repeating payment is a bit annoying, it should be fixed on the calendar
34. [R112] Money Manager Expense & Budget 5/5 · US Nice: It’s really use to easy and nice
35. [R114] Money Manager Expense & Budget 4/5 · US Great Budget Tracker with Helpful Insights: Money Manager: Expense & Budget is one of the best apps I’ve used for keeping track of my daily income and expenses. The interface is simple, clean, and easy to use, making it quick to record transactions. I also like the detailed charts and reports that make it easy to understand where my money is going. I’m giving it 4 out of 5 stars because there is
36. [R49] EveryDollar 2/5 · US Update fail: In new update, there is no way to login without “starting free trial” or paying. I have used the free version of this app for 11 years. Now I have to go to the website and sign in through the website to access the app. Please change this back.
