Finanzen 2

thanks the app is very useful but has no update for years even the old ver1 has a update 2 years ago

I have used and loved this app for many years. I have thousands of transactions in it. Now that I realize that no more updates are coming, it’s time to move on. But now I see that the export to CSV does not work. It creates empty text files. So I’m not able to transfer data to a new app. Very frustrating.

All it needs is a better way to reconcile with Bank of Credit Card statements.

I love this app but it has been several years since there has been an update. Is the app at “end of life”?

Been looking for a simple app that update budgeted accounts as I enter transactions. I basically have a combined checkbook & ledger & I only have to make one entry. Reports are easily generated & easy to read. The ONLY problem I have is I don’t have a way to open/print Transaction Reports because of their zip file format. Can someone address this?

This is a very clean and beautifully designed app. There are a few other double entry accounting/bookkeeping apps for iOS. However, this stands out from the rest in terms of features and design. Navigation is very intuitive, adding transactions is very quick and easy (especially with contextually aware suggestions for Payee and Comment), good looking visualizations, and a variety of handy reporting options. There are some handy search shortcuts too (e.g. last week, month, etc). Searching is flexible in that you can search overall or specifically by the comment, payee, or by amount. I’ve been using the app on iOS and MacOS for almost 2 months now and am pretty satisfied. I’ve had iCloud sync fail (reporting an error but can’t quite recall it) but fixing it was simple. The developer has helpful guides and articles (about the app and double entry accounting in general) and a F.A.Q. One page talks about fixing iCloud. Another one for example talks about budgeting using envelope system (most apps you’ll see use this idea). I think it would be nice to have some additional statistics/insights that are human readable (e.g. you spent $300 more on shopping compared to last month). An additional nice to have is custom fields so one could have a transaction date and a posted date. My solution for this is just using the number field (phone number of Payee) as a date for the transaction. When I clear a transaction, I update the actual date field to it’s posted date. The above two are just that, nice to haves. I think this app is generally feature complete. The developer seems to be focusing on their other apps, which is fine given the above statement. Highly recommend trying the app out. There’s a 14 day trial with no feature restrictions so give it a shot.

I’ve had the original version of finances for years and always kept it backed up on my iCloud. I switched phones, and both the old and the new one downloaded, but can no longer access my saved information because that older version “expired”. So I’ve lost years of financial data, even though I had purchased the full version. Finances 2 does link to the first and can not recover the lost data either. I hated the format of the new one and never started using it. You’d think if we purchased an app we wouldn’t randomly lose all the data we paid to have stored in it.

This app seems to be what I’m looking for but I’m confused as to why it seems like a free app but after downloading and creating 1 journal I get the option for a 14 day trial or pay 4.99. I don’t mind paying if it is worth it so I shall make that decision after my trial time but I feel a bit deceived. I was comparing this app to free ones, now I need to reconsider and compare to paid apps. I could be getting something better at the same price with another app. I thought my search was over (keeping my fingers crossed that it is because I love the double bookkeeping) but sadly I don’t know now.

Terrible App will be getting refund. Nothing like the first version. Terrible remake

The app itself is great. It’s a good double entry accounting program. However, syncing does not work. The app hangs indefinitely when trying to restore a purchase. Syncing with iCloud works only a fraction of the time. The app seems to not receive updates anymore. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this app any longer.
