What users love and hate · 500 reviews analyzed · ★ 3.3

An expense-tracking app with clear charts and shared wallets — built for people who want to see exactly where their money goes, including via bank connections.

What users love

Clean, minimal UI that beginners can master from day one

Polished, tidy interface that makes sense even without any prior budgeting experience

I have used this application since 2017. It is a really great app to record the transaction I did everyday. Thank you for the fast bug fixes! Look like it's working just like before, smooth! Good Job Developers team!

very usefull and easy to use app

App got completely destroyed in the last update. What about basic ui/ux tests before updae release!!?? Please fix the app asap.

A clear picture of spending: charts, history, and monthly reports

Easy to see where money is going — graphs, stats, and period-over-period comparisons

Generous free tier and reasonable paid packages. Good app overall and i like the visualisation

No widgets support. No option in the app to customise home screen. Timeline is the default home screen. Previous version's home screen with some graph widgets and recent transactions was better. Premium subscription is extremely over priced compared to any other finance management app in India

Releasing a glitchy update and causing such inconvenience to your paid customers actually deserves 1 star. Out of appreciation for what you did before, it's three. As soon as you fix/revert back to what was before, I'll happily put 5 and keep recommending it to everyone else. Issue with months, which has already been reported + keyboard doesn't disappear after entering and saving new expense item.

Custom categories, tags, and colors for any lifestyle — home, business, family

You can create your own categories and labels; everything is flexibly configurable

best app. very flexible and coustamizable categories.

It's very flexible

Great so far but improvements required. 1) ability to either move or amend an entry to another wallet. Presently you have to delete the entry and renter it into the correct or another wallet. 2) Ability to copy and paste a figure/ amount when creating a transaction 3) When importing data the system does not auto identify wallets regardless of the separation on the excel document. This is never men

Shared wallet with family or a partner — synced instantly across all devices

One purchase covers shared wallets; the other person's spending shows up in real time

My financial journey partner since 2016

I wish it had a way to integrate expenses between a couple, to consolidate who owes what to whom. Right now I have to enter expenses on 2 apps, over here and on Splitwise. wish I could use one app for both.

great app to add day today expenses as a couole or family. Fast synchronizing and can use in separate devices at the sane time.

One email links Android, iOS, and browser

Data syncs across phone, tablet, and web without an extra charge

actually I was looking for good apps to track finance for more that 10 days cash lens spending uhh expense manager a lottttt, this has all i need especially sync with Android and Apple device with just one mail , while other apps asked for subscription for this feature , ui is so user friendly easily able to jump dates so I can track old finance too , everytime I don't have to select cash and it k

Great app to store and see your expenses, I've been using this app for years and no complaints so far. This is the only app which I found very useful to analyse spends, rest are either very complex or hard to see data to this extent. Very happy and highly recommended app if you want to jtrack your expenses.

best app for expense tracker. best thing it available on android and ios both

Years of loyalty: people have tracked finances here for 5–10 years

The app has been a reliable money diary for users since 2014–2018

I have used this application since 2015 and have always been happy with its features and usability. Lately, however, it is disappointing to see its performance degrading. The UI is no longer responsive, and the latency between a click and an action is growing. I originally assumed this was due to my old phone, but I am experiencing similar lags even on a brand-new flagship device. I would much rat

My financial journey partner since 2016

One-time lifetime payment instead of a subscription — users specifically appreciate this

The option to pay once stands out in a world of endless monthly charges; the price is called fair

Generous free tier and reasonable paid packages. Good app overall and i like the visualisation

Using for more then 5 years. I love this app, why? versatility, cross platform use. iOS, Browser, Android Consistent and optimal performance unlimited images can be uploaded, this app never failed me on the basic function I request for. worth the yearly subscription, which I would say it is very affordable

I feel privileged to have this app... having quickly bought the perpetual subscription... Thanks for a 'Splendee' app... (*Splendid*)

Manual entry without bank linking builds discipline — but not everyone trusts it

Entering every transaction by hand makes you stop and ask whether you really need that purchase

i do not trust this app to gain access to my bank accounts. very disappointing that i cannot manually track a bank account or a credit

I like manually entering in my info with different colors and tags to help me stay organized.

Multi-currency tracking works, but exchange rates don't stick

Praised for handling expenses in multiple currencies within one app

This app is very nice for me to spend multi currency expenses! I especially like the magic ai scanner so I can simply take a pic of a slip or put a screenshot from the gallery. The only thing is that the ai sometimes doesn't pick up the price even if it's clearly written. sometimes resubmitting it helps. also I wish there was support for apps like Bybit, Binance and more banks all over the world.

great multi currency budgeting app with reactive support

Do not buy this app, is completely useless... All the transactions are done automatically if you set them up, but you cannot fix anything, so you don't have control of your transactions. The customer service reply but only to ask you for screenshots end at the end there's no improvement since some transactions are difficult to correct. If you are using different currencies... Don't even try, since

Support responds quickly and resolves issues — but not for everyone, not always

The team fixes bugs within a week, issues refunds, and helps with bank connections

This app does exactly what we wanted. What really makes it special for us is that Spendee's technical support is very prompt and effective in resolving any problems we encountered (in our case, this was mostly because our local (New Zealand) bank decided to change the format of its interchange file - without notice..). All fixed now and running well.

A budgeting app I enjoy so much that I paid for it. They recently had some bugs, but the support was responsive and they released a fixed version in a week!

What users hate

Auto-categorization gets it wrong and doesn't learn from edits

Categories are assigned incorrectly, and fixes don't carry over to future transactions from the same merchant — everything has to be sorted manually

categorizations are often wrong and the categories could be improved.

A few basic features are missing: splitting transactions (if I buy something and it includes, for example, a gift, I want to separate it into a gift category—I can't do this, which is especially important for transactions synced with my bank account).There's no way to mark unimportant transactions. The AI scanning feature, added just for the sake of AI, makes no sense; it doesn't divide into cat

Would be better if can have parent category

No way to split a single purchase across multiple categories

You can't split a receipt (e.g., a gift inside a shopping trip) — a real enough pain point that some users switch to competitors

They don't work on updates. Don't get the lifetime membership as I think better budgeting apps might get developed. Pros: easy UI, different budgeting period options, labels. But, there's heaps of improvements needed. Like splitting one transactions into different categories and allowing money received to be categorise into an expense account. i.e if it was a refund into your credit card. Right no

Please add split transaction feature. It's really needed.

Users want the home-screen widget back for quick entry

The widget was removed years ago; people want to log expenses and check their balance without opening the app

please add widgets for weekly budgets!

Didnt support vietnam bank or add visa card feature and no widget

No sub-categories, and reordering categories is nearly impossible

No nested or parent categories, and dragging a category to the right position is painfully clunky

It's incredibly challenging to rearrange the categories. Besides, this is a great app, and I've tried smth like four other before installing this one. But this is outrageous, I've seen nothing like this before. It's very inconvenient to look for a category you need every time you want to add an expense. To change the categories order on mobile is taking forever, because it's nearly impossible to g

Would be better if can have parent category

no tiene subcategorías.

Credit cards and debt are counted as income, distorting the balance

Card debt is added to net worth, card payments count as income, accounts can't be flagged as debt, and there's no loan tracking

I hope add a debts transaction

I have been using this app since 2014 and as the year goes, it's becoming more like an abandoned project. The developers are more focused on a useless NFT feature instead of solving real app issues and adding better features. It's been close to 6 years with no new feature. The exchange rate is nothing close to official market rate and it's frustrating. My family expense history over the years is a

Well this looks like a great app if and only if you only link bank accounts with cash balances. I linked my bank accounts where I have savings/checking accounts, and also credit cards. The app is reporting the balance I have on my credit card as if it were cash I had on some checking or savings account. The app is also reporting the payments I made to those credit card balances as if they were inc

Scheduled and recurring transactions can't be edited or deleted

The schedule of an existing recurring transaction is locked, and scheduled entries pile up in the list for months

most complicated The fact that the first wallet you see is fixed in one currency (GBP) and you cannot change that currency and it wont reflect even if you changed the preferred currency in the main settings of the app multiple wallets for 1 account and multiple budgets for 1 wallet. no real informative videos like YNAB just short non verbal youtube videos + sparse blog articles no option to copy a

Hi, liking this app - however can it edit previous instances of a recurring expense?

I loved this application, but latest updates made it almost unusable. You can schedule transactions, but later you can't change or delete the scheduled transactions in the list. Imagine you have a payment planned for yesterday. It's listed in the transaction list and you can't change the amount as it changed or replan it to a different day. Fix not delivered even five months!

Feels abandoned: no new features, updates push ads rather than substance

Long-time users notice stagnation and a focus on trendy additions (NFTs, AI scanner) instead of fixing long-requested gaps and performance

I hardly give reviews. But this is an amazing one over the last few years until TODAY. Can't even load the app, is it an update issue or app is abandoned by developers? I'm really concerned.. all my years of data gone just like that.. Pls give me an update or reply. Thanks

Subscription and lifetime pricing are seen as too expensive

Overpriced for India and other markets — ironic for an app meant to help you save money

It's not free app. Need to purchase this app to use. 2500inr per year. Too much for this app

Not free, very overpriced. Rocket Money was better and costs less, but still overpriced

Users want the tablet layout and web version restored

Tablet mode was removed (the screen renders at half-size), and the web login stopped loading

Me gusta mucho, pero no sé por qué no me está funcionando bien en mi celular Android (no me guarda las transacciones), pero sí en una tablet Android también. Tal vez sea un bug pasajero.

I like the app, but I can't open it on my tablet. It only displays half the screen in portrait mode. It can't be in landscape mode. It would be nice if the app was updated and could be opened fully in a tab like it is on a phone. Thank you.
