Finances 2 for Negative User Reviews

Attachments BuggyReasonably good app and easy to use, but transaction attachments fail to sync reliably between Mac and iPhone. Suggested debug process may delete all attachments! I've had to restore them from Time Machine backups a couple of times. Developer rarely responds to issues. Generally support is poor. I am not sure if this app is still being developed or if bugs are being fixed..Version: 1.8.7

DislikeI loved the first version of this application but it said I needed to upgrade to add more monthly transactions so I did, and this app is nowhere near similar to the first app. I absolutely hate this version of the app and hopefully I get refunded or that was a waste of money..Version: 1.2.1

Preferred Finances 1.So frustrating to purchase a 14.99 upgrade to an app you use daily to find that it's totally unrecognizable and way more complicated than needed! Finances 1 was a way better app, and I will keep using until I find a better replacement..Version: 1.2.1

Good app design, terrible app performanceThe app is great in terms of features - only lacking multi-transaction / batch editing, which the developer reserves for the Mac version. But the battery impact is insane. Running this app on three different iPhone models, over multiple updates to both app & iOS, and it still gets the phone burning hot. It can drain nearly 80% of the 12 pro max battery in under 3 hours! Why editing text in a database is so resource heavy is not at all clear. Scrolling through transactions is laggy on the latest & fastest hardware, and the app crashes very frequently when editing transactions and making more than one or two changes..Version: 1.8.7

Perfect for my church budgeting processesBeen 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?.Version: 1.8.7

Good appSolid accounting app but the lack of updates is concerning. Developer seems more focused on his HomeKit app.Version: 1.8.7

LackingLacks a lot of helpful features that was in the old app such as ability to see and edit your repeated transactions. Lacks the charts and tables also. Thumbs up for diff currencies though. Wouldn't recommend this new version..Version: 1.2.1

PurchaseThey forget to mention it’s only a two week trial.Version: 1.8.7

Not user friendlyImpossible to use really.Version: 1.8.7

Manual entry?!?!This app is more for someone who has a lot of time on their hands and can manually input every single transaction that comes in and goes out of their accounts I do not have the time nor is it intuitive enough to use for this purpose there are several other apps out that will grab the information from your account rather than you having to manually enter..Version: 1.0

Thumbs downSuper confusing not really what I expected, however I will say they try to explain it as best as they can still just a bit of a headache.Version: 1.8.4

Misleading business model...You download the app, no cost. You then get to a screen that forces you to purchase, or purchase a 14 day trial - which is zero cost you still get pushed through the in-app purchase process. Nothing you can do without going through that process. Misleading..Version: 1.6.0

A bit lostThis 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..Version: 1.8.7

BGR said it was free but has $5 in app priceThese article posts of paid apps now going free for a limited time is all click bait..Version: 1.6.0

Is the app EoL?I love this app but it has been several years since there has been an update. Is the app at “end of life”?.Version: 1.8.7

Do not useI have spend months putting All of my tax info in Finances 1 under several different Journals, today I log in and get a message saying App is Damaged , delete app and reinstall. I’m do frustrated. I do not recommend this app. Whats to keep finances 2 from doing the same. I’m not able to log in to Finances 1 and link my date to new app. Looks like I will need to pay again also for the updated app..Version: 1.8.4

Original Expired so I lost everything.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..Version: 1.8.7

Receipt scans randomly disappearI’ve got tons of space on an upgraded iCloud account, yet my receipt scans seem to disappear on their own. Now I’ve got to find a new app that works properly, and plug in six months’ worth of data. Run away..Version: 1.8.3

Was great but abandoned by developerI 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..Version: 1.8.7

Unable to backup journalCurrently unable to backup the journal. The app crashes when trying to backup the journal..Version: 1.6.2

Syncing Doesn’t WorkThe 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..Version: 1.8.7

Sync just never worked for 2 days in a rowUpdate after iOS 13: Account page width is even slimmer. I can’t see the full account name or balance (even more so than previous versions). Again, not holding my breath for a fix. — Please fix it. (I’m not holding my breath) Honestly by far the best and the most hassle free personal finance app. Bogged down by the lack of stability in sync — never lasted for more than two days before I have to reset it on my Mac or iPad. This is insane. I would otherwise recommend this app. More features I’d like to see: Reset balance to a certain amount (currently I need to manually calculate the difference and to adjustment), Collapse Level 2, 3 accounts (currently its a long list since I have so many accounts ranging in 4 currencies), and support for manual/automatic currency rate calculate and/or filtering. I touched JPY once and it will follow me everywhere in so many accounts. More: please add custom notifications. Again, not holding my breath..Version: 1.8.0

Getting used to programHave to learn how to view individual transactions. Overall program has good concept once you understand it. Would love to see reports available per day profits instead of total.Version: 1.1.1

Do not like this app would like a refund!!I purchased this app and it is to complicated to use. I have not used this app at all. Can I get a refund and search for a new budget app?.Version: 1.6.1

Awwwwwwful.I’ve used the OG Finance app for yeeeeeears and I denied the “upgrade” for months because I knew in my heart what I was doing what perfection. And one day opened my Finance App and it was EMPTY after yeeeeears of logging... this new App wouldn’t even acknowledge that I purchased this App before ... I REpurchased this app and it is utter BULL. It’s so difficult to navigate and does not lay my expenses or income the way it has done before... I regret paying The measly $5 for this Bull....Version: 1.6.2

Sync Erased All My TransactionsI had many transactions and got erased while syncing with my Mac. Several days have gone by since my email to customer support and nothing. Honestly, if you cannot recover your info and you will be afraid to sync it means this app is not dependable. Excel may not be as pretty but I am going back to it and asking my money back. It is a shame since I was going to purchase the Mac version as well. Glad I was on trial..Version: 1.4.2

ComplicatedThis may be great for some people but I found it very complicated. I wasted $ and can’t figure it out. I just wanted an app that I could take a picture of business receipts to track for taxes. But this is full blown finance which would be great for business owners and tracking personal finances. But not for just tracking business expenses..Version: 1.5.2

Finances 2Terrible App will be getting refund. Nothing like the first version. Terrible remake.Version: 1.8.7

Not syncing with other devicesNo matter what I try and after following the help pages, the app does not update my most recent entries over iCloud… like it is supposed to. I have contacted ‘Finances’ creator and have had no reply. Such a shame as it is a great app.Version: 1.8.7

RequestThe app has a simple & nice design, but I wanna suggest some improvements for future updates: • Adding the option to change to Dark Mode without depending on half-baked Smart Invert feature > could use iOS12 UIUserInterfaceStyle ;) • Making sure the app data is end-to-end encrypted separate from iCloud by default - A support email would be nice for communication Thanks,..Version: 1.5.1

Switched from Bluecoins (Android)This app is alright, I do not like how it limits the forcasting and how hot my phone (iPhone 12 Pro Max) can get after spending more than 15 minutes in the app..Version: 1.8.7

Too much for me.I loved the free app but after I purchased this one it went way over my head and too much to learn. Im going back to the free app..Version: 1.3.1

Zero supportThe app is quite good but the dev just ignores emails and tweets. It’s so frustrating when you see the dev active on Twitter but ignores your legitimate questions anyway..Version: 1.8.6
