Great way to plan personal finances. Initially, it was a bit too simple, I like features like calendar, finance projection and budget planning. It works and it does what it's supposed to. Pocketguard - it's a one time payment for life, great budget planner ever I used!
Very intuitive and useful monthly budget planner and bills organizer. Love the layout. I wish there was an option to set up a password or pin code or fingerprint lock, as it keeps valuable information about income. But overall a very useful budget planner app. Great work!
This financial planner app is super easy and has helped me manage and save money without a personal finance manager. I'd give it a 9.5/10. It's only shortcoming is that it's not the fanciest/most attractive as the color options are boring. But that doesn't really matter!
Makes money management easy, fast loading. Helps you stay on budget, e.g. groceries, auto insurance, records dates, money spent. This app has saved me so much time trying to find receipts and remember what I spent money on. I recommend this bill organizer.
Excellent finance tracker! Loving the simplistic experience so far, almost got everything I have been looking for in an app of this kind. Looking forward to additional improvements in the near future! 🖖
I like it but it's got issues. Alot. I haven't been able to mark my bills as paid, it will randomly unsync with my bank account. Then it takes 3 or 5 days to resend. I've been super patient and now I am just done.
Just downloaded this bill organizer a week ago and so far it's great! I've always wanted to be able to see how much I spend on separate categories (food/ fuel/ etc) and this app does exactly that. Kudos to the developers!!
I liked this at first but now it keeps doubling everything I enter and messing up my budget. I delete the extra entry and it immediately doubles it again. Today, I deleted ONE doubled entry and when I refreshed the app had deleted EVERYTHING I had entered in the last 8 days! This app takes longer than good old fashioned pen and paper budgeting which is kind of pointless and a huge waste of time. Been using it for several months, app is up to date, and Android system is updated.
Doesn't work. I bank with Chase and the app won't sync my transactions. Pretty important for a budget app in my opponion. If your budget app doesn't sync transactions stop selling it. Chase is a MEGA bank. There is no excuse for not integrating with it. I'm leaving two stars because I love the interface and what the app could be.
Literally have not been able to connect any one of the three different banks I've tried. As far as I'm concerned, this app 100% useless.
I have downloaded many budget planners but this one is the nicest. Also I like the new subscription manager! Good job pocketguard team, good job!
I love this Bill organizer and not just because it's free. This budget app actually works and works awesome! Highly recommend this budget planner 👍
Easily used, easily costumed. I liked this budgeting app. I tried other budget planners. This is the best by far. I use it every day.
Excellent app, I'm able to budget my monthly expenditure easily. Will recommend this budget planner to everyone :)
Great budget tracker! it working good, awesome secure, detailed with times and dates and customizable categories
Very friendly debt payoff planner, solves my problem totally, I highly recommend it! Just perfect with snowball method
Easy to navigate and categorize your spending & budget. It will alert you daily to input your spending.
Still can't link Citibank or Wells Fargo accounts?? Mint works great compared to this, even though I like this app's interface much more!
This app really helps to save money and keeps me very organized. Thank you for creating such a convenient money tracker!
Garbage app. Cannot save an expense that I'm trying to deduct from our budget. I even paid for the better version with more features. Save your money and go with a more user friendly application like Every Dollar.
If I pay a bill early it still shows as due & you can't change it until the date it's due. So it's always telling me I overspent & making me think I've missed payments. It requires A LOT of babysitting for an app you pay for.
Helpful, but could be improved. 1) bills/expenses on the last day of the month often don't show up in "upcoming bills", I'm assuming because there's 28, 30, or 31 days in the month. The solution to this is upgrading to plus and adding it in as a cash bill. 2) would be great to be able to split a single purchase between two or more categories for more accurate data. So if you buy a card and gift while grocery shopping, you could categorize appropriately instead of adding it in as a note on the purchase. 3) rolling over income and bills into the next month. Everything is month-based in this app, but a lot of people probably have bills/expenses that occur on the 1st day of the month. But these bills aren't shown or calculated in "upcoming bills". 4) would be nice to have a calendar view of bills and income for people that don't like lists. Overall, a very helpful app. These are just suggestions to improve that I've noticed after using this app for multiple months. It gives a great snapshot of your finances and it's so incredibly helpful that you don't have to manually enter every purchase because it pulls data from your bank account. You could spend as much or as little time as you want in this app.
I like the app a lot overall, it's actually working for our family so far, which is fantastic. The two main drawbacks I've experienced are the app doesn't play well with capital one, so I have to go in and manually refresh the capital one transactions everyday. So that's quite a hassle, but I'm hoping they get it cleared up. the other thing I don't like is that you can't categorize pending transactions, so if a purchase is stuck in pending and miscategorized by the app, it throws you off.
This is a handy little app that lets you quickly see where the money is going. A nice feature is the real time indicator of where adjustment may be needed. The budget planner was very intuitive, easy to set up and use. The free version is just a one month teaser of its capabilities, but the plus version isn't exactly cost prohibited. This money manager is Well Worth It! Highly Recommended.
