IAllowance Lite with Chores for Negative User Reviews
✓ Bank moneyI don’t like the fact that each chore is link to money, I would like to have the ability to have chores with stars only and be able to use it as I want.Version: 3.0.10
✓ 😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤Horrible app you can only add 1 child on the free version..!!! Sooooooo dumb!!.Version: 2.3.9
✓ Update deleted everythingGreat. I’ve relied on iAllowance for many years to track my kids’ savings. An automatic update deleted absolutely everything. Time to delete and find a new system. 😡.Version: 3.0.1
✓ 0 StarsI couldn't understand any of it. The UI is *so* disgusting..Version: 2.2.5
✓ Love it when it worksI thought it was a great way to end the allowance debate with my kids. We'll worth the money. I have this on an iPad and iPhone. Unfortunately I have had some some instances where entered transactions disappeared. There is a restore from backup function but I'm not sure if everything is there. I'm using this to keep track of my kid's money. It has to work flawlessly but doesn't. I think I will just keep it on my phone and end the syncing issues..Version: 2.2.1
✓ NoI would like it if when you slide the chore to a different day it goes to home screen!.Version: 1.9.0
✓ Can't get it to syncSeems easy to use and set up 2 kids accounts. Don't like that we have to purchase the app for each device-- that increases the price quite quickly if you have 2 parents and 2 kids. But main frustration is that the syncing with Dropbox seems intuitive and easy EXCEPT it's not syncing on my husband's phone-- even though with both phones we get the message that syncing was successful..Version: 2.5.1
✓ Not workingTrying to start up the app for the first time, go to sign in but nothing pops up once you click on the sign in button. No error message but no logging either..Version: 3.0.15
✓ Not goodTried to create an account & said success then won’t let me sign in.Version: 3.0.15
✓ Maybe it works- I can’t tellI decided to try the free version of this app to see what it was all about. Well, don’t bother. The free version is so restricted that you can’t do anything. I had to upgrade just to add multiple children. Then when I tried to watch a support video (transactions) the link didn’t work. I couldn’t adjust the amount in my child’s account after she spent some of her money. I wouldn’t have minded paying the $3.99 for the full app, but don’t offer a free version that does nothing. I feel that it is misleading and they just want to sucker you in to buying the add ons. Deleted the app and purchased a different one..Version: 2.6.0
✓ Useful, but steep learning curve.I’ve been using this app for several years now to keep track of chores, allowance and savings for my 2 daughters. It’s a very powerful app with rich features allowing you to get creative and specific with how you want to incentivize chores and savings with your kids. I does however come with a bit of a steep learning curve. Initial setup can be a bit painful, especially in regards to the cloud sync feature. It does work eventually, and every time I get a new device of the kids upgrade to a new phone, I pretty much have to start the sync process from scratch..Version: 2.6.0
✓ Rip offI signed up for an account, paid for the extras, and had to delete the app temporarily. When I downloaded the app again, it said it didn’t recognize my login info. Now, if I want to use the app again I’ll have to pay, again! I’m not a happy customer..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Please add a delete feature to transaction sectionsAlmost perfect if only there was a way to delete transactions. Currently can only edit but not delete. :(.Version: 3.0.15
✓ PlacementThere’s no way of putting them in order of day and would be great if could get it connected to a family diary.Version: 2.6.2
✓ Charges just to sync with a new deviceI upgraded my phone and in order for me to sync the things I had done in this app it wants me to pay for an upgrade...I paid for the app when I downloaded it originally. What a scam, trying to make me pay again.Version: 2.6.0
✓ Unsupported AppWhile this is a good app if you are only using it on one device, it doesn't sync well with other family devices. And it looks like there is no longer any technical support for the app--inactive tutorial webpages, broken links, unreturned email, misleading instructions on what extras need to be purchased. After discovering all this, I was able to get a refund from Apple. It really needs a single sign on feature, so you don't need to sync at all..Version: 2.5.1
✓ Too complicated!Can't work this out, even after watching tutorial. Deleted!.Version: 2.3.1
✓ Worse than useless. Lost everything when it updated! >:-(Three children just getting into the system. Each had stars and money in their piggy banks. With an update, all was gone. Imagine their reaction. And mine! Interface is clunky anyway. Avoid this ap!.Version: 2.0.8
✓ DisappointedLooks good at first glance, but the word "free" is far from truthful. In fact you are being asked to fork out extra costs before you can even get a chance to judge if the app is worthwhilke or not. A complete leap of faith is required, that unfortunitly i am not prepared to take so quickly. I would have been interested in a month trial and then occure a charge..Version: 2.3.8
✓ Freezing frequently in the first 5 min of setting it up...Version: 2.6.2
✓ Like the idea but lost infoI like the idea of this app, but after download I went through and tried to set it up over and over but the info I entered would disappear. Finally get the info entered and I closed the app, I later opened it and everything was gone. So annoying. App deleted!.Version: 2.6.0
✓ Not workingDownloaded this tonight excited to use the app with my kiddos. Never have had an account l, but it’s saying there is an account attached to my email already. I can not log on as a new account and can not log on, apparently, on the existing account attached to my email. Won’t be using..Version: 3.0.15
✓ GoodI like it but need to buy add ons for realistic use..Version: 2.3.9
✓ Time consuming and pointlessI got this app to help my children remember to do their chores and see the money that they earn as they go along. It was very time-consuming to set up and a major headache when the kids check off their completion. Things like talking back and poor behavior cannot be locked for parental control only. My 10-year-old spammed her self 10 poor behavior marks Worth a dollar apiece just to see what it would do. I could not get her balance to reset to what it would be. The chores that were assigned for anytime of the week and multiple per day are also confusing when checking off. This is not quick, and it is not easy. I really regret this $4.99 purchase. If I could get a refund, I would..Version: 3.0.5
✓ Only syncs with same apple IDIf your kids have their own apple IDs, this app will not sync across devices..Version: 1.11.5
✓ Account got deleted with no notice.I haven’t used the app in a while but have it to keep track of how much money my kids have. I just tried to log on and it tells me it doesn’t recognize my identifier and my account was deleted. I searched my email looking for notifications from them, but nothing..Version: 3.0.10
✓ Keeps crashingPlease fix.Version: 2.3.0
✓ Better but still Complicated ,sync issuesUpdate following app update: The ability to hide children per device is a nice feature. Syncing multiple devices with multiple children is still problematic Setup is still ridiculously and unnecessarily complex Have used this app for a couple years now. It has always been overly complex and lacking an intuitive and refined interface but we have worked with it. Now trying to use it on several devices it has become painfully obvious that the app is simply broken. It appeared to sync via Dropbox for a while but turns out it is inconsistent in the end making it unusable..Version: 2.3.3
✓ What happened to my account? It was deleted?We were using iAllowance for years and then all of a sudden it was gone. When I try to retrieve the old account information it says that my account “may have been deleted”. What???.Version: 3.0.10
✓ Problems with the latest updateI loved this app until the latest update. It changed the balances in each of my kids’ accounts and now all the tracking I had been doing for YEARS is messed up..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Lost all my dataI had the paid iAllowance app for years. Kept track of all of my kids “money” on this app. It worked great until one day, poof... it was gone. I tried logging in one day and there was no record of my account. I have no idea how much the kids had in their checking/savings. The logs of where their money went, everything... lost..Version: 3.0.15
✓ Confusing: just go for iAllowanceGreat app, but the process of upgrading to the purchase version is confusing and prone to mistakenly being charged twice. Better off just purchasing the top end version (iAllowance) to begin with..Version: 2.5.1
✓ Free version only allows for 1 childI’m not paying for something that I can’t test.Version: 3.0.15
✓ IAllowanceThis would be a 5star rating if it would update properly. The app never updates to the cloud so when my kids do their chores I have to manually change them on all our devices.this is not a cheap app. to pay for 4 copies of it and it not to work properly is disappointing..Version: 2.4.2
✓ Difficult to navigateNeed to be more intuitive.Version: 3.0.14
✓ Short reviewOk I know there are tutorials and sample data, etc, but I created a 'kid profile' but couldn't figure out how to personalize it. After 1-2 minutes of trying, I uninstalled. I shouldnt need a tutorial to do something that basic. More UI thought = less need for lessons..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Would be great if...This app looks amazing, however the free version only allows me to add one child and I have 3. The $19.00(USD which equals approx $26 Canadian dollars) is too steep for me for not having an opportunity to try the app for at least a month. My search continues 😕.Version: 2.3.9
✓ Keeps crashingWas a good idea, but the app keeps crashing and it is DRIVING ME CRAZY because I had just finished setting all the chores, banks and kids up..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Won’t LoginWas so excited to try, but it won’t login..Version: 3.0.10
✓ Shows promise, key bugThis is a great app, however it has an annoying bug. Conversion rate from Stars to Dollars DOES NOT WORK for chores. I want my kids to be awarded stars, with the conversion rate showing in their bank accounts. Currently this only shows $1 per star, no matter what you put in as the conversion rate. The only way this could work for me at this stage is to start charging them board!!!.Version: 1.11.6
✓ Unable to transfer to new phoneI paid for the app on my old phone and am unable to sync it to my new phone or any other devices. I’m not sure why it isn’t connected to my Apple ID. Disappointed..Version: 2.6.0
✓ App will not work, I paid for this app and it will not work.I pai.Version: 3.0.15
✓ Don’t like itIt doesn’t let all my children do it u have to pay money.Version: 3.0.14
✓ No chore approvalLooked good but lacking feature to approve chores. Without that the child can just complete them and get the money!.Version: 3.0.14
✓ Use for one child onlyU must upgrade to add more than one name.Version: 2.2.5
✓ Nice idea but tricky to navigateTook me a good half hour to figure out how to set up my child (without using up valuable data in the online tutorials - no other options available). And then I couldn't create another child! So my child # 2 misses out! Arrrgh.Version: 2.2.1
✓ No tutorial or overview👎🏽👎🏽This has the potential to be an awesome app but I am not wasting a day or even an hour or two fumbling through and navigating in the dark to explore the potentials of purchasing an app knowing that the designers and builders obviously did not prioritize basics such as user friendliness in just the initial set up. If user-friendliness isn't a priority upfront it will most likely not be a priority long term and that's a HUGE deal breaker. ...with the benefit of saying goodbye to the piggy eyesore tile. Peace out ugly piggy bank icon.✌🏽 Because complaining about the slight perk in not looking at the aesthetic eyesore of the piggy tile appears superficial I will explain why the functionality was the deal breaker. Is set up for a highly educated adult is cumbersome and lacks user-friendly tips, tricks, walk-throughs or smooth integration how on earth would this be user-friendly for a teen, preteen or especially usage by a child?! The apps link to the tutorial in Dropbox is no longer found ANNNND there's NO WALK THROUGH, no tips, no pointers, NO EXPLANATION WHATSOEVER regarding ANY of the app. Which basically equates to you can count on wasting your precious time navigating in the dark to figure it all out in hopes that it's actually worth purchasing in the end. I won't gamble away a day or even an afternoon of my precious time towards sampling a potential dud especially allocating my time resource to one such as this that's lacking zero direction or overview regarding what you are setting up, e.g. "accounts" or what is actually being allocated to what account, e.g. what monetary value the stars are worth or how time settings relate, etc is NOT worth anyone's time risk investment. --- The "tutorial video" is no longer found in drop box & the entire app seems cumbersome at best to piece together into a functioning machine. I will take my business to a more streamlined company/app that holds user integration as an upfront priority..Version: 2.5.1
✓ HeyHey.Version: 1.11.5
✓ You have to buy the 4$ version to sync w other phones^^.Version: 2.5.1
