Ratings and reviews

UPDATE 25/02/2026 Love the new updates, however again can't save any expense due to too many elements? Love the app, it's very intuitive to use. I like it the most out of all of the ones I tried. Unfortunately, after the newest update I cannot save any expense and it's something to do with the card field that's optional. Hopefully, that'll be fixed and I can update the rating to 5 stars as right now it's unusable.

after the last update, the app just keeps loading but does not open. before, it would take "forever" to load, but now, just blank page. the interface was great. easy-ish to keep track of expenses. except the delays deters you from recording transactions in real-time when you're on the move.

I really like it, it was a little confusing at first, but thats definitely on me, im fairly new to actually creating a bidget. once I messed around with it, I actually really like it compaired to some of the others ive tried. maybe a tutorial for beginners sometime in the future? also id like to point out, the price for the premium version is very fair. Once I have the spare income ill be upgrading to it. Good job.
