My teenage son (who doesn't use this app) gets money in various forms for birthday and Christmas. Cash from us, a check from grandma, a gift card from his big sister. Throw in a monthly allowance as credit and things really get messy. This app has saved my sanity for several years now. When he wants to buy a new video game, for example, I can quickly show him (and me) the details and balance of his account with Bank of Mom. The interface is a little awkward to navigate at times but no big deal.
Very cool idea. The app is very buggy. For example, the account drop down boxes don't work most of the time. If I click the drop down several times I can eventually get it to work.
Me and my parents never argue about who owes who money anymore. Wonderful!
It won't let me go to any page. It tells me my user name or password is wrong. And it's not. I also paid five dollars to add extra kids. And now the screen won't go anywhere. I think the idea might have been good, but it just cheated me out of my money and I have no way to contact anybody and tell them I want it back. Not user friendly at all
