Great if your bank actually links. Right now there seems to be an issue where my Chase card refuses to link up. I reached out to the devs twice about this, but no response so far. After having the app installed for several weeks, it now appears that my account has been erased from their database. Credentials don't work, and reset password returns an error. As it currently exists, this app is largely broken and difficult to use.
App looks like it should be great, but usability is seriously dampened by several factors. Adding accounts - worked the first time, but it seemed to be displaying my credit card balance as income so I disconnected and tried reconnecting my account. It never showed up again under accounts and would tell me I've already added that account if I tried to add it again. Ultimately I deleted my entire Moneystrands account and remade it. I tried to add my mortgage bank account, it hung and never connected. Restarted the app and this time, I tried my credit union account. It churned away at connecting then stopped and gave me a red exclamation mark. The errors in this app give zero explanation. This is frustrating as it gives no insight into how to fix a problem. There are few to no options to try to adjust settings to try to diagnose a problem. If the app would work as advertised, I think it would be great! It needs work. edit: I've emailed, per their response to this, and am waiting their reply.
Great when it works. Stopped letting me log in, no password reset, support is non-existant. When it does work, no export -- you're trapped with this app unless you want to start all over again with categorizing all your transactions with a new app, which I'm getting ready to do. Hasn't synced with my bank in 3 weeks!
App has potential. Need to allow screen rotation to read account access prompts. need to allow for text entry on enhanced security options. mine needs an email but app will only allow numbers. Most accounts now have secondary enhanced security and this app lacks the ability to pass these to allow account access so it is useless.
It seems like this should be a great app, but it isn't. I couldn't get it to work for me and have run into roadblocks trying to set the app up. Even after many attempts at reaching out for help, they have never replied. No joke, I've waited like two months and emailed five times. Forget this. Moving on to a different app. If you get it to work for you, great. Otherwise, don't waste your time. Edit: I took the developer's offer for assistance and still haven't received an answer. 5th email. 👎👎
when i registered, it worked, but told me it failed. then i couldn't log in. load time in my short experience was excessive. i imagine the actual functionality of the app is better, but i can't get to it. best of luck with further bugfixes.
It worked well in the beginning, but then it stopped letting me login and now it won't let me login and says there is an error when I try to use the forgot password function. This app has too many bugs that keep it from working properly.
Could not add a bank ccount, could not manually add expense or income. Got errors on all. Also it could not recognize my email as legit. I had to use one I rarely use.
I had this app installed for a long time. I was using Mint but Mint seems to fail to link bank accounts. I wanted to try another app before I purchased YNAB (which I used for free as a student). I tried to link my bank accounts and NOTHING. One star for an app that does not work.
Update options would not work, so there was never an accurate representation of my banking and savings account which defeats the purpose of using this app to manage and budget funds.
Accounts wouldn't sync. Couldn't easily add my own ledgers for each account.
Tried to download this app, but continued having problems registering and contacting support.
Can't add capital one. Goes through but then red exclamation. I don't know how this app is making it on website recommendation.
Unable to create an account. Just says error
Would be five stars if someone would respond to my email about not being able to add my accounts.
I cannot even create a new account. It just throws an error.
Dont waste your time when there are betters apps to choose from.
unable to add any accounts
tried to link my back account. it just gave me a red exclamation point. no explanation or how to fix it
Can't input numbers.
My bank is not listed as option for linking accounts.
Wouldnt download CC Transactions. Uninstalled. Stupud
Stopped letting me input cash transactions
Does not have my bank. 😔
love it
Cannot get bank to sync, says it is an invalid password when it isn't
Hahaha quickest app trial ever: Install Open Force close Repeat Uninstall
The app is very good. I see a few issues (below) which make it not usable in my case. 1. After creating rules for a lot of transactions, It suddenly started showing an "Error unable to update transaction" when creating new rules. Is there a limit on the number or rules ? 2. The "internal transfer" as well as "Credit Card Payment" from my checking to credit card show as expenses. This ends up double counting my expenses in the "Analysis" view. need a way to auto exclude transfers from Analyis.
