## PocketSmith Sidekick Reviews in New Zealand

### ***** "Feel in control of my finances"
Love that the platform is customisable. Dashboards and reports are great, and good for checking in on over/underspends. I feel more in control of my finances than I ever have. Have recommended to friends and family.
-- swty95, 2024-07-25

### ***** "Great app, but expensive"
Best finance tracking app I have ever used, after testing out many. Particularly like the forecasting ability. Only down side is it’s quite expense and I don’t know if savings made by using this app and tracking my budget outweigh the cost of actually using the app. The free version doesn’t offer enough to want to use it without a subscription.
-- ########B########, 2024-07-06

### **--- "Slow and immature"
The mobile app is really second-grade: routinely hangs for a few seconds on open, not fully functional (vs web app), ugly, not intuitive. Can not recommend.
-- Nic22355, 2023-08-30

### ***** "Great for a quick glance"
I love a pretty app, and this is one of them. It’s perfect for being able to have a quick look at your budget, where the more detailed information is available on the website interface. 

There’s so much information, I find this tool super powerful and am looking forward to learning more about how to utilise all the features to maximise my use from it and better manage my spending and savings.
-- skywalkernz, 2022-12-30

### ***** "Amazing"
PocketSmith is amazing, a complete game changer for monitoring personal finances and spending. I paid for 12m up front, no regrets.

After spending a couple of weeks setting everything up and tweaking, it’s now a smooth experience.

This app is a great addition to the overall experience.
-- Just an Internet Stranger, 2022-11-26

### **--- "Love the app but not all the issues syncing the bank feed"
I love this app and I’ve been using it for a while but since the end of May 2022 there are suddenly issues all the time sync with my bank feed. It’s very frustrating!
-- Kirsty UI, 2022-06-17

### ***** "Fantastic companion app to the desktop software."
This is the companion app to the financially life changing software called pocketsmith. It gives an on-the-go overview and access to some of the PocketSmith tools. 

For me the biggest benefit of this app is keeping track in real time of cash spending. But as I use it more I’m sure I’ll find many more benefits. 

As for the PocketSmith software, I mean it when I say it’s financially life changing. If you want to save more, monitor and reduce spending, reach a financial goal or reduce debt, I highly recommend it. It’s powerful full featured software so be ready to spend some time learning how to use its considerable tools to get your finances on track. It’s very reasonably priced especially when you consider it paid for itself for the year twice over within an hour of me downloading it and finding some spending I could stop immediately!
-- Cuzbuz64, 2022-06-10

### ***-- "Fine app"
I’m still figuring out if it’s for me. Would love the ability to ignore some transactions because they make the graph misleading. I understand the reasons but it would be much better if it was a native app.
-- Elwesties, 2022-05-23

### ***** "An excellent companion to the web app"
Many of these reviews are now outdated and the app has become a great way to use the app while out and about. I particularly appreciate the bank feed sync status so I can check with the latest transactions synced. 

If you’re not finding the functionality you’re looking for - remember you can add widgets to the dashboard by tapping ‘edit’. 

A couple of minor things I’d love to see and would make the app even better: 

- The ability to update manual asset balances on the go. Either from the net worth or balances screen would be nice. 
- iOS widgets for some of the dashboard widgets. E.g a budget recap as an iOS widget would be fantastic!
-- nickwreid, 2022-01-31

### ***** "Give it a chance"
Most of these reviews are out dated. The developer appears to actually take on feedback and has added many of the features quoted missing since. If you’re looking for a great tool to categorise and review your spending, this is it. It’s best to use a PC/laptop to set up, and then the app for continued use. I love that it syncs with my bank accounts - no need to manually enter everything! And you can set up filters so it can automatically categorise your transactions for you. My only request is more editable features on the app if at all possible in future please :) i.e. budgets/categories/filters.
-- -wonton-, 2021-12-15

### *---- "Can’t sign in"
I use google sign in on the computer but there’s no option to sign in like that on the app. Can’t be used :(
-- Jaz5, 2021-11-15

### ***** "Remember: it’s a mobile app"
Long gone are the days when fascination at holding the internet in your hand takes priority. Why does this matter? Because expectations run limitless, and that wouldn’t be a fair conclusion to draw about the app for this BRILLIANT platform. 

The PocketSmith web app is a sight to behold. Coming from a software developer with years of experience across web and mobile development, it is not easy. Not only do you need to be remarkably skilled, but the line that businesses walk in deciding how complex to make their mobile app is ever-changing and hard to pick. 

Does this app do everything the website does? Not by a long shot. Should you be able to do every single thing you can on a 27” screen with a keyboard on something that fits in your pocket? I seriously don’t think so. If you need to adjust the end period of one of your budgets in one of your many categories but keep a roll over period (...you get the idea), you should be on a computer. 

As far as apps go, sign in is a breeze, the colours are cohesive with their brand, and it is by no means over complicated (which could be worse than being too simple). 

If you’re like me and you need to know whether you can drop a cool $50 on takeaways, look no further. Thank you to PocketSmith for developing such a stable and intuitive platform.

### *---- "Frustration after frustration ..... don’t waste your money!"
Waste of time and money - no clear sense of true financial position. An absolute waste!!!
-- Sa downunder, 2020-08-17

### ****- "Can you add..."
Good app but can you add the ability to view the expense vs income vs left  $ over wheel..... it’s probably the most important one
-- Skinny98765, 2020-01-07

### *---- "Didn’t realise I would have to give my bank credentials"
I figured it would use some sort of API provided by the bank. Didn’t realise I would have to give it my credentials. Cancelled my subscription as soon as I saw that.
-- jontycg, 2019-04-10

### ****- "Missing some key features from desktop version"
Pocketsmith is great, however the mobile app is missing key features from mobile app. Would love to see:
- custom date ranges for budgets
- force sync on mobile
- alerts when budget is near limit, or a weekly one to categorise/confirm transactions.
-- josiahayres, 2019-02-01

### ***-- "Good"
The desktop programme is great but the app is lacking. It would be great if the awaiting confirmation transactions could also be seen in the app to categorise on the go. Really makes the app useless otherwise. Also the app is usually 4-5 days behind in transactions compared to the online version. So actually I don’t use the app because I can’t do much in it.
-- Audehm, 2018-11-28

### *---- "Login issue"
Downloaded it. Can’t even create an account. Only options are to log in or log in with Google. Unhelpful.
-- Llfkkmmmrnnncjsmwmmksoomf, 2018-09-24

### ***** "Valuable and enjoyable"
Really enjoying using this service so far... it has been a great experience setting it up and I’m looking forward to getting a lot of value in the near future. Have already recommended to a few friends who I know would benefit.
-- ajbcodes, 2018-08-08

### ****- "Simple"
Great way to quickly resolve categorization. Is there a way to add photos to transactions. That would be ideal.
-- Tataihono, 2018-06-05
