Checkbook - Ledger App Reviews

110 add

So far, so good

This app has made my finances better. I wish I could enter interest rates for credit cards. Overall great app, I recommend getting the pay version to track all accounts though.

Almost perfect

Excellent app. Would be five stars if you had a debit card recognition.

Recurring transactions dont update consistently.

Basically this app has been great as a simple ledger. However, I set up my recurring income/expenses for certain dates and they dont recur on the dates and are pretty spotty when they do. I emailed the company about it with no reply. Otherwise Id give it 4-5 stars.

I love the concept of the app, but could improve!

In a world where swiping your card is the norm, balancing my accounts prove difficult. This app allows me to enter all of my transactions so that my ledger balance is up-to-date even if my bank account is not. I like that it allows me to add recurring items and that I can create reports to see my spending habits. Now the cons - suddenly my recurring biweekly transactions arent moving into my accounts. Ive tried updating the dates, shutting it down and restarting, but its not updating, so I had to add them all myself. The other thing is that the reports show your spending by category, but I wish it also gave a list of all of the transactions included in each category so that I had an easy way to see the specifics all in one place. And I do have the paid version.

Love this app!

So easy to use and pull up! Definitely a great tool to keep track of my spending!

Works Great

This app was exactly what I was looking for.

Missing Obvious Features

I tried this app out with the hopes of replacing iReconcile, which is lacking two major features this app offers: attaching receipt pictures and backing up to / restoring from Dropbox rather than backing up via email. Unfortunately, this app is missing a pretty fundamental feature that iReconcile offers: daily markers with balance breakdowns. I don’t know if you’ve ever balanced W checkbook, but one of the most infuriating things about it is when there’s a difference between how your register and your online account summary list your balance; daily balance summaries make it much easier to figure out WHEN that happened. The receipt attachment is also lacking; there’s no way to see a list of all my attachments or to tell from the transaction list which transactions already have attachments. I’d like to see a little receipt icon if I have one attachment; if I have more than one, I’d like to see a receipt icon with (3) afterward (or 2, or 8, or however many attachments there are). I’m leaving a 3 star review because the app is usable, but is lacking a fundamental feature that means that it cannot actually serve as a viable replacement. 5 stars - it has features that make it stand apart and has no notable missing features 4 stars - no missing fundamental features, but it’s either missing a notable feature or it doesn’t have anything that makes it worth using over the competition 3 stars - it’s missing a fundamental feature, but still very usable 2 stars - it’s missing several fundamental features or it’s not very usable 1 star - it’s unusable for its intended purpose

Perfect for tracking my budget

Downloaded the free one and loved that it balances my checkbook as I go. Upgraded and added credit cards, recurring payments and my other bank accounts (savings and secondary checking). I love that my financial status/net worth is available at the tip of my finger.

Pretty good

I like the app. Its a great way to keep up with my account quicker than the bank can update online. I like that you can see what the actual and reconciled balances are at the same time. My only suggestion is to add a few more categories to the expenses. Id like to separate utilities and other household expenses. But its a great app altogether.

Needs a sync option

I have been using this app for a little while and I really like it. Very easy to use and balance. The problem is I want my husband to start keeping track and there is no way to sync our accounts since we have a shared account. Please add a multi device sync option I would be willing to pay for the upgrade. Only reason it didnt get a five star.
