An editorial reading of the saved reviews

A manual expense tracking app with budgets, multiple accounts, widgets, and Mac and Apple Watch support. Beautiful interface, good customization, and active development. A systemic issue: transaction history has been wiped after updates for some users on multiple occasions, undermining trust in the app as a long-term data store.

What people use it for

What users experience

1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

I've tried multiple spending tracker apps over the past 5 years and Money Coach is the only one that helped me stick to a routine. I was having a hard time saving money. I felt like my cash was just disappearing but I wasn't making huge purchases.
