EveryDollar: Personal Budget for Negative User Reviews
✓ Not happySubscription is a scam… all it seems to do after connecting your account is send your transactions to the app. You still have to do everything as if free version and trying to understand the transactions you are seeing is a big mess. I still need to log into my bank so I can properly put things into categories. Even after all that after only 3 days into the month it for some reason doesn’t add up. And I’m not even entering the values. The app is doing it for me. I’ve been trying to use this app for 3 months now and just can’t see the point of it. Subscription certainly doesn’t seem worth it. Big waste Why can’t connecting the app calculate everything for me? Why can’t the balance of my bank account be the same as on the app. For the amount they expect people to pay for a subscription it’s a joke.Version: 2022.09.30
✓ Please make available to CanadiansWould really like to use this app but it is i it available to those in the US. Please make it available to Canadians ..Version: 2023.04.03
✓ Won’t let me sign inApp won’t let me sign in. Keeps saying “something went wrong”. Must be a bug in the system..Version: 2021.08.03
✓ Bugs need to be fixedI’ve been using this app for almost 2 years now and although it started off really helpful, for the past 3 months or so it only lets me log in maybe 1/3 of the time, and it gives me a “something went wrong” error the rest of the time. I’ve sent an email to their support team and never heard back. As someone who was using this almost every day recording every transaction I’ll need to look for another budgeting app because I’m only let in a few times a month now. Ads have also been recently added in between your transaction categories which means a lot more scrolling and wasting time - for an app meant to be easy and efficient I’d prefer it for ads to be at one set place in your screen and not something you have to scroll through to get past..Version: 2021.11.23
✓ Can’t sync my bankI’ve had this app for about two years now. I used it very little at first, but it worked very well at the time: my bank connected and I tracked all my expenses very successfully. Unfortunately I stopped using the app, and my bank connection terminated automatically. This month I decided I am going to use the app religiously and went in to set up my budget and re-sync my checking account. No luck. According to the technical support at EveryDollar, my bank has changed their security protocol and additional information is required before they will allow me to link EveryDollar to my bank account. No indication what this additional information is or how to enter it. Tech-support has indicated that they will continue to try and get my bank to link but in the meantime, they suggested that I do the transaction deductions from my budget manually. In my mind, this defeats the entire purpose of the EveryDollar app. I want something that is done a with a few clicks not something that I have to do manually. With the enhanced security protocols that most banks have, I’m disappointed that Ramsey Solutions hasn’t anticipated this and put in place procedures to comply. But I can’t say that it’s entirely their fault. I have canceled my auto renew for the EveryDollar app. I’m looking for another app that will do the same thing, but will connect with my current bank. If I’m not successful, I guess I go back to the old envelope plan..Version: 2023.09.01
✓ Getting greedyI’ve used this app for a number of years along with listening to Ramsay related content. The app used to offer upgrades once in a while, which was fine. Now every day I open it it’s asking me to upgrade for $25/month or $100 per year. It doesn’t bother me they offer that but shoving it in my face daily when I open the app is getting to be frustrating. Not to mention it contradicts Dave Ramsays advice for years to cut out everything non essential. “Live like no one else, so you can live like no one else”……except buy our subscription. Hypocritical now that it’s gotten to this point. I would have given it 5 stars had it not been for the daily pushy subscription money grab..Version: 2023.10.31
✓ Subscription price$170 a year!?!?! Pull out a pen and paper you’re better off. Like holy shieeettttt son.Version: 2020.06.25
✓ US & CANADA ONLYThis is on the Australian App Store although you can only select USA or CANDA. ????.Version: 2020.06.25
✓ Two countries only!!Pointless if you are from anywhere other than USA or Canada. No way to progress if neither of those are suitable..Version: 2.12.18
✓ Used to be the bestNow it sucks.Version: 2023.02.17
✓ Missing Features(1) The initial setup wizard needs to be available at any time, not just when you first start using the app. It’s easier to input information and figure things out with the help of the wizard, and if you quit the app without finishing the initial setup, it makes it difficult to figure out how to get all the right numbers in the right places. There should be an option to go back to the wizard at any time. (2) I also don’t see any information on how to budget for investments in the app. Nothing comes up when you type in “invest” or “investment” in the Help section, and I don’t see any Investments category on the app. (3) I want to be able to separate my budget by pay Period rather than by month. I get paid twice a month, and the app is making it unnecessarily complicated having to figure out how much of my 1st paycheck has been used for various categories and how much is left for those categories out of THIS paycheck. Since I won’t receive my next paycheck for a couple weeks, I do not yet have that money, but the app acts like I do..Version: 2021.11.09
✓ No option for recurring expenses?Can you pls add a recurring option for expenses so i dont have to keep typing it down monthly? also i cant change titles. instead of “lifestyle” i want to label it “work” instead. if u added it to premium i would buy it the rest are useless to me..Version: 2021.11.23
✓ Other CountriesThis is on the Australian App Store but can only select US or Canada as the country..Version: 2020.02.07
✓ Spend your money on a better appThis app was sufficient at one point. I was using Mint and actually found out months ago through Dave Ramsey that Mint was shutting down, and since I had already done DRs financial peace class, I started using this app again. Just as I got my budgeting down, I was asked to update to latest version - what a mistake. Now I either have to manually input purchases, or pay for the premium to connect to my accounts which was free before. Extremely disappointed in Dave Ramsey taking advantage of everyone because Mint shut down, especially when I’ve already paid for the class and this came free with it. Not to mention the yearly premium price is outrageous especially when I never felt the user interface was that smooth and I am constantly having to (re)categorize every transaction because the app isn’t smart enough to learn where reoccurring transactions should be placed. Thankfully I found another budgeting app that does all of this while also tracking my investments; although it is a little more expensive it is worth it with more insights, better design, has an option for tracking cash, and a much nicer and easier user interface. I’m already in love with my new ‘flying assistant’ budgeting app. Not to mention since the update I can’t delete or disconnect my accounts - frustrating! Therefore bye bye Everydollar..Version: 2024.02.06
✓ Would give it 5 if it wasn’t for FUNDSI love everything about this app EXCEPT saving funds! If you are following the Dave Ramsey principles for financial peace university you should be saving for things like tires and annual insurances throughout the year. This is the idea behind funds however they are not intuitive at all. What happens to the money when you withdraw from the funds in relation to the overall budget? When you withdraw from the funds and you look at your remaining balance, the numbers don’t make sense and don’t add up. Tutorials are not helpful at all. They are very basic and show you how to put money in and barely how to take money out but do not explain the overall impact on the budget as a whole as seen in the app. What does remaining mean in relation to the funds. Does remaining include the overall amount in the funds? Or remaining amount for that months budget? It seems when you withdraw from the funds it screws everything up and the remaining balance is off by thousands if you’ve made a big purchase. Incredibly frustrating! I’m about ready to throw in the towel and go back to a good old fashion Excel spreadsheet..Version: 2022.01.12
✓ Really want to like it moreI really want to like it more. The User Interface is a plus for me. Conceptually I like this app way better than any of the others I have used. If you want to only use the free version and add all of your transactions it works great. My issues are with the paid version, and downloading transactions from my bank. I started using it and loved the app. After a couple of months I started to notice transactions missing. I started paying more attention, and compared it to a competitor who I still have my accounts linked to. The competitor shows all transactions, and EveryDollar does not. I put a request into support, and received feedback that they weren’t experiencing any issues with my bank. Was asked to update my login information with my bank to see if that would resolve the issue. I did this and went another couple of weeks having the same issue. I emailed again, and never received a response. I let it go for a little bit, and then emailed again. It has been more than two days, and still no response. My biggest issue is TRUST. If I can’t trust the transactions that are being downloaded, the app becomes useless, and doesn’t allow me to budget correctly. Again, I really want to like this app, but can’t if the version I paid for doesn’t work appropriately..Version: 2.14.4
✓ Recurring fixed costsWhy should I need to manually input fixed expenses like a mortgage. It doesn’t change. Let us set expenses between fixed or variable. And for fixed let them be dated and flip themselves on automatically..Version: 2022.08.18
✓ Removed Necessary Feature..This App was everything I needed, until the removal of the Percentage Ring.. Having the breakdown of each category is incredibly important. Otherwise any time you add or subtract an expense, you have to recalculate it… it’s time consuming and not user friendly. Bring back the Percentage Ring! (Without making it an additional cost..).Version: 2022.10.03
✓ Times have changedThis was such a helpful app when I first started using it. As a young adult who’s still very new to budgeting this app quickly became my best friend. The app had its issues but for the most part was extremely useful especially considering it was a free budgeting tool. Then they started charging for it. And at a pretty exaggerated price point too. You can pay $60 for 3 months ($20 a month) or go up to $130 for a year (>$10 a month) which, for what your getting, you’d be better off going to a financial advisor once a year. The app is not worth the price point even if it was a flat $10 a month it’s still a half-baked app riddled with all kinds of errors that even after months of monetizing the app, still haven’t been fixed and probably won’t be anytime soon. Just because the frontman says things like “I want you to be financially free” it won’t be over him making a quick buck off of us. With that being said back to paper budgeting I go I wish everybody the best of luck creating their future don’t let these rich people manipulate you just because they do well for themselves..Version: 2022.02.22
✓ Keeps unlinking my accountsIt seems like a great app and a great way to start looking at all my overspending. But it seems I have to relink my accounts every single day, and this is getting quite frustrating, I may switch to a different app.Version: 2023.06.02
✓ Used to love it!I have used this app for years and love how it has helped me budget better. However, over the last year or so, updates have occurred that have left two very frustrating elements: first, it now takes FOREVER to load! My goal from the beginning has been to log every purchase I make, as I make it (isn’t that best for budgeting purposes?). This used to be easy to do, but now it will take anywhere from 10-15 seconds to open. That may seem like a small amount, but when you’re trying to enter a purchase in the app while standing at the cash register, it is very annoying to have to wait for the app to load. The second problem that has popped up recently, is how often it makes me sign in! Seriously, the most annoying thing! I’m using the app on my phone, so I’ve already gone through facial recognition on the phone, but now I have to take the time to login? As I said above, my goal is to log each purchase as I make it, but having to re-login every time is about enough to make me jump ship and find another app to use. It is completely cumbersome and not user friendly at all when I have to do that. Please fix these issues so the app goes back to being the wonderful, user-friendly budgeting tool that it used to be!.Version: 2023.06.28
✓ Good tool, some flawsI do like this app and it has helped me keep track of my spending much better than I had been. It also shows me how much I am really spending on items that I can cut back on, like eating out. Before, I really didn't realize how much we were spending and now I can see it add up as the month goes on. I like being able to split transactions into different categories to track each cost. But the help section is lacking and there was no real tutorial that I saw so I kind of had to learn as I went. The one thing I still can not get an answer to is the income. I can put in a planned amount but sometimes our income is more or less. When I put the actual received amount in as a transaction, it doesn't change my overall monthly amount. So it doesn't account for the over/under. This may be user error, but I've tried everything to get it to work properly and it won't. So I just change the planned amount to what we get paid. Which is fine, although the next month's budget shows the wrong amounts as planned income and I have to change, and it is not at all what the help section says should happen. It seems like the plus version would do it for me, but I am not paying $120 a year for an app to help me budget and save money. And honestly, I think that is shady of Dave Ramsey to even do that considering he preaches about cutting out unnecessary expenses. I'd give this app 4 stars but the lacking help section and fee for everydollar plus makes it lose at least 1 star..Version: 2.9.1
✓ No Canadian IntegrationHave been using the free version of this program for years and waiting for either the ability to sync Canadian bank accounts or to upload transactions from CSV. Unfortunately, the organization does not care to get monthly subscriptions from Canadian users of the app because there is still no way to bring in our transactions without manually entering every single one. I would happily pay the annual subscription if they would just add some functionality for Canadian accounts!.Version: 2024.01.04
✓ Not intuitive at all, frustrating to learnI’ve used a number of budgeting apps over the last several years and figured I’d give Every Dollar a try. I figured with the good reviews it would be easy to use. Boy was I wrong. I’ve never struggled to figure out how to use a budgeting app before - until this one. I linked up my bank accounts and began setting up my budgets, easy enough. But I have several bills in my budget that are recurring every few months. I entered the total bill amounts and then attempted to change the frequency from the preset “monthly” to every 2-3 months. Doesn’t work, the option is grayed out. I tried a few different ways to change frequency with zero success. Managing recurring bills is a huge factor for me when budgeting so being able to set frequency is vital for me in a budgeting app. No idea why Every Dollar is set up to limit how you can budget but I’m over the app. I can’t even find an option within the app to find help or use a FAQ. Such a bizarre app to have no support and no ability to do basic budgeting tasks. Apparently this one isn’t for me. I was prepared to pay for the premium version if it worked for me but I can’t even get past 10 mins into using the app or even get support, so I suppose this one goes into my deleted apps now. Pretty disappointed..Version: 2023.02.02
✓ It wiped my accountI have been using it for 3 months. Opened it today and it cleared all of my data. Account doesn’t even exist anymore. So frustrating!.Version: 2023.05.11
✓ Not US or Canada, don’t botherFor some reason this app is available but when I’m creating an account it asks which area you’re from, USA or Canada. Don’t bother if you’re from anywhere else.Version: 2020.10.02
✓ Love this app BUTIt’s so glitchy. It asked me reconnect to my accounts everyday and takes HOURS and multiple attempts to connect..Version: 2023.11.17
✓ App stopped openingHi, App not opening beyond the front page..Version: 2024.02.29
✓ Definitely Not Worth $130!I am an accountant, but my husband is not, so we decided on this budgeting app since it seemed a little more user friendly for those without a background in finance compared to a lot of other apps. We used this app for a whole year, and I was disappointed at how little information it can process, and how much effort it takes to maintain accurate info. My husband stopped using it altogether because of what a pain it is. One of my biggest complaints is that there is no “reports” section, so I could never see how well I was doing month to month, or notice any trends making it impossible to get a “big picture” idea of your finances. Categorizing expenses was a hassle too, especially when you are trying to categorize two months (ex. At the beginning of the month you have expenses from the past month as well as the present). The app was always having connection issues with my banks, so I never had real time information. I think I would have maybe let issues like these slide if it were a free app, but it is DEFINITELY NOT worth the $130 yearly subscription fee. I started to dread doing my finances because of how annoying this app is..Version: 2020.08.19
✓ App is Crashing3 comments 1-in the last app refresh a large percentage of times i open the app the screen is just green and stays for over a minute then crashes. 2-i miss the percentage piecharts from last year…the visual was so helpful for me to interpret where my money was going to in a high level overview. 3-the categories should have a total at bottom or at top to show how much $$ is in each category.Version: 2023.04.03
✓ BE AWARE- Bank disconnection issues and deleting manual amountsI had high hopes for this app and love all of the features it offered. But after using it for 2 months and constantly having to disconnect and reconnect my bank(2-3 times a day), glitches when using the paycheck planning, incorrect amounts, deleting transactions that I manually entered and getting no help from 4 emails back and forth to their customer support line, I’m giving up!!! From the beginning I’ve had bank connection issues. So I emailed their customer service. They told me to enter it manually until they figure it out(but I paid for a premium subscription with the bank connection, so that was frustrating). A week or two would go by with no resolve. So then after they told me my bank connection probably won’t be fixed anytime soon, I asked for a refund of the cost of the premium every dollar plan. She told me I can only get a refund within 30 days. This really made me mad!!! I had been emailing her for a month and because it took them that long to figure it out, now I’m past the 30 days. This doesn’t make any sense. It should go by the first day I contacted them for support. I gave this app many tries, I guess pen and paper will be the way to go until something changes..Version: 2024.02.29
✓ Better before the update-new update got rid of the percentage breakdown on the app, and overall doesn’t look as good -also some minor bugs, transactions not showing on app but showing on browser.Version: 2022.07.18
✓ $130 to save money... rightI get that apps are designed to make money off of its users. But this just seems a little bit ridiculous. For a guy who tries really hard to sell that he cares about people learning how to budget their money, and having the best life for themselves, he is sure charging a lot for a super basic budgeting system. I don’t want all the extra classes and videos and everything else that comes with the app when you spend $130. All I wanted was to track my spending. I spent time plugging in the numbers for my planes spending, only to find out that there is no easy copy and paste feature for the actual spent tab, meant to help you track your budget. You have to retype everything a second time, even items that are consistent like car payments and mortgage and insurance/health insurance etc. Or, you can link your bank account. Obvious choice, you want to link your bank account. But in order to do that you have to buy the entire subscription for a year including all of the other things. Really frustrating. Guess I’m going to look for another app. There should at least have been an option to pay for only linking your bank account, for a lot less than 130..Version: 2021.05.24
✓ Needs internet connection…I can’t input my transactions manually or even look at my budget totals without an internet connection. This is a joke. Fix this; make the entire app function offline. It’s just a glorified calculator after all. -2 stars. The subscription price is outrageous. -1 star..Version: 2022.10.03
✓ App won’t load after updateIt won’t load, just a green screen.Version: 2022.08.08
✓ New updateApp is great but recent update is garbage.Version: 2022.08.24
✓ Too Many AdsThe latest update brings even more ads for R+. I now have 6 ads on my page, one after each section. I find this especially annoying as the service isn’t even available in my country, so why do I have to keep staring at ads for it?.Version: 2021.09.09
✓ Confusing and misleading if you take them up on an offer to resubscribe.We had utilized the EveryDollar app a few years ago, but due to extreme circumstances, we cancelled all subscriptions for a time. Now, we are in a position to get life back in order, and EveryDollar is one way we knew to go about that. When I downloaded the app, I was asked if I would like to subscribe, and the app stated we would have a seven day trial. I didn’t really need a trial, but I followed the prompts to resubscribe. I couldn’t find the monthly option, so I hit subscribe, believing I would be given that option in a later step. I wasn’t. I was charged $129. When I called Apple support to change it, I was told that that option isn’t given to folks who are resubscribing. That’s a little harsh and misleading. Customers should be told UP FRONT that, due to having previously subscribed, they are not eligible for a monthly payment plan. Those of us that are getting back on our feet and really need this should be able to purchase the app. That’s a big hunk of money at one time for some folks. Please, consider changing the process for those of us who would like to resubscribe..Version: 2020.03.17
✓ Cool butI wish that you could set your own 30 day period so that there are some flexibility for those of us that use biweekly pay checks.Version: 2022.02.22
✓ Can’t log in after updateCan’t log in after last update (2023.11.02) I’m probably in debt now!.Version: 2023.11.02
✓ Bugs, Bugs, BugsI tried every single budgeting app available during a one month period. This hands down was the easiest and most flexible app available. However, it has so many bugs you basically need to call an exterminator. Transactions constantly disappear and then reappear sometimes doubling the entry. Due dates change repeatedly and often. The last straw was when I had 19 bills listed with correct due dates. They all changed to the wrong due dates three days in a row. I corrected them each time which was time consuming. The third day I fixed them all again and they changed again in the same day. Then some transactions that had already been assigned just disappeared knocking my balance off. I could never get the app balanced with my bank account. Each time I tried to reconcile it the app showed me off by a completely random and different amount. I was spending hours and never getting a good result so I deleted the app and rebuilt my good ole faithful excel spreadsheet. If the bugs in this app can ever be resolved it will be great. It is so catastrophically poor I do not see that happening anytime soon..Version: 2023.12.04
✓ App that is solid for Day to DayThis (Free Version) app works well for everyday use. If you are looking to input data manually and track your expenses this works great. However I like to use my IPad for most of my mobile financing and this is where it is weak. The app doesn't have the ability to stretch to the full size of the screen and it doesn't rotate for portrait to landscape. Unfortunately when my wife and I sit down for the end of month budget review we have to log in online to look at all the features why? Also their are so many features that aren't available online not available on the app. The baby steps tracker is a screen that would be great to look at on the app my wife looks at that screen twice a week as a way to motivate and focus her on our long term goals. The fund categories are great for saving money up for special things however to set them up in the app is difficult. It would be great if the debt categories had a tab that showed our balance what we paid and what we are saving by putting extra payments in. As well as a time counter of the expected payoff date. Also if we have a fund and the need comes that we use some of that money it then is calculated in the spent total and the remaining budget total. Understand why it shows up in the spent total however at our end of the month meetings we have to go back hand calculate what our remaining monthly budget is so we can apply the savings to our debt. This is frustrating..Version: 2.7.9
✓ Ipad landscape mode?App is great, but iPadOS version doesn’t flip to landscape mode when using, please fix and this would be 5 stars. Oh, and a search function would be great too..Version: 2020.06.25
✓ No bank connectionReally upset that after paying the annual fee me bank won’t connect. Just error 102 over and over again even after following instructions on how to fix the issue. Major feature doesn’t work..Version: 2023.02.02
✓ Ramsey+ Features Not Available In CanadaWould have been nice to know before buying. And bank account connections have endless errors. App is not usable..Version: 2021.11.09
✓ Don’t waste your money on the paid versionPaid for a year subscription so that my bank account syncs to the app and constantly logs me out of my bank. Then it takes several tries every time to sign back in. Out $100 and have to manually enter everything just like the free version.Version: 2024.02.29
✓ Easy but incomplete and priceyI love the design and ease of use to track transactions. But that’s where it ends… The math didn’t work out many times between “planned” expense, “spent” and “remaining”. No idea why. I was never able to connect to two of three banks I use. I love to run reports and see all of the transactions in a particular catagory, or merchant. This app does not do that, only the dollar amount. Finally, I like to see my transactions in a single account at one time. No can do. I did get a refund through Apple, thankfully on the 30th day after purchase. That’s the time limit. Not sure why it’s $80/yr, but I’d pay if it worked. Update: I received a developer response, addressing my concern about bank connectivity. Since I was forced to leave Mint and find another budgeting tool, I decided to use the recommendation from the app developer and try again. I went through their recommendations, and did everything suggested. When none of that worked, and I finally figured out how to send the developer an email in regards to my problem, I never received a response. As of today, there is still one bank I cannot connect to, and I’ve noticed more than one bug that makes using this app frustrating. The problem is, I don’t know what other tool to use that would replacement Mint. I would take a few ads in Mint over EveryDollar any day. Update 2: Moved to Monarch. Awesome app.Version: 2024.02.29
✓ Too expensiveNot a fan of the expensive subscriptions, switching to MoneyMAP..Version: 2024.01.04
✓ Good, but not for long.I downloaded this app yesterday. It connected to my bank seamlessly, I budgeted for the rest of the month and next month. I like the features it offers. Everyone is trying to find the next “Mint” and this app seemed to cover what I needed. NOW when I open the app, it just sits on the green loading screen for 15+ minutes and won’t even open the app. I feel like I wasted so much time setting it all up, just for it to have a glitch and now I can’t even use it. Why bother paying for a subscription for something you can’t even use??.Version: 2024.02.29
✓ Good app but I am not spending money for itI love the app so far except there are some functions you cannot use with the free version. And I am not paying for a budgeting app when the whole point is to save money..Version: 2023.11.17
✓ Needs option to add accounts manuallyI tried this app for a week, and in general, it has some very good features. However, once you have signed up for the “plus” account, it seems you can only add bank accounts that are electronically linked, and not all banks are supported. I have 3 accounts, all of which I access online regularly, that are not supported by EveryDollar. (They are, however, supported by other budgeting apps I have used.) I would have been okay with it if I had the option of adding and tracking the accounts manually. (They also proudly stated in their reply how there are over 200 banks supported, and to check the list, as if I was going to close out the accounts I had just so I could bank with one of the ones they actually supported. Talk about missing the point!) It can’t be that hard to add unlinked/offline accounts as an option. I’ve used both mvelopes and YNAB in the past, and both let me do this. I was hoping for a better budgeting app, but at a cost that is so much higher than the other apps out there, without even providing a way to track all of my accounts, it just seems like a huge waste of money. (I know part of the value of the subscription is supposed to be access to the other features, like FPU. But if all you need is budgeting, then those “extras” are pointless.).Version: 2020.11.30
✓ Does not support Australian BanksPaid my $124 for full cersion in June 2023 found out feb 24 they no longer support Australian banks. No communication that this was happening just no updates in app. Now have to battle iTunes to get a credit. Was otherwise a great app. Very disappointed….Version: 2024.02.23
✓ NaggyThe app is fine however the constant nagging to sign up for a subscription was getting old. I thought Apple had a limit on how many times per year an app could ask for a signup in app. Needless to say it’s annoying enough I’ve started using a spreadsheet again..Version: 2024.01.23
✓ Will not link to RBCThe whole point of a financial app is to monitor everything you spend by linking to your bank account. This app just keeps giving an error code “10000”. I opened a ticket with support and it’s been over two months. I email for an update every week and I keep getting the same reply that they’re working on it. I had high hopes because it’s a Ramsey product but I’m giving up and giving it the rating it deserves unless they solve the problem. Conclusion: RBC clients can not use it..Version: 2023.12.19
✓ I guess you need my money more than I do.First of all being the fact that I signed up for a 14 day trial and then immediately was charged for it. How is that a trial if I’m paying for it right away? To make matters worse I paid through Apple. Everdollar says they can’t refund those types of payments. That’s convenient. Also they don’t give the option to choose the monthly subscription. “Want a 14 day trial? P.S. we’re going to charge you a full years subscription before you’re able to decide if any of this is what you want 😉”. On a lesser note but still irritating. I use a credit card for everything for security purposes so no place I make purchases can possibly have access to the accounts where my personal cash is located. Just in case a place of business gets hacked then I won’t be dealing with an empty account for up to three months. Everdollar of course advises against the use of a credit card even if in my case when it’s not accumulating debt, it’s just a security measure. So when I use the card it shows up in Everydollar as debt even though it’s not debt it’s normal spending that I will refund using my cash from a separate bank. So I can’t even use the app normally because it just thinks I’m constantly going deeper into debt..Version: 2.14.1
✓ Once was an Amazing AppThis app use to be amazing. I use to be able to budget items right away with no problems. The app now glitches and duplicates budgeted items on its own, creating lots of confusion. I am not sure if this is a way of getting users to upgrade to the premium version but I am now losing interest with Every Dollar..Version: 2022.09.01
✓ Doesn’t work with Canadian BanksLooks promising but doesn’t support Canadian banks, and wants $25/month. That’s a bit much!.Version: 2023.11.17
✓ $25CAD + Tax / monthAre you kidding me right now? I thought you guys were trying to get people out of debt. Hypocrisy.Version: 2023.07.31
✓ Like always, they keep changing the UII’ve used EveryDollar for years now, long enough to hit the historical data limit a few times over. I’ve embraced and relied upon it for a large part of my professional life now. My big area of opportunity for the Ramsey+ team is to stop modifying the way the app works. Modern software product and deb teams can’t seem to wrap their heads around the “if it ain’t broke” principle. Multiple times now they’ve made updates to the UI to make it more modern and visually striking, and they keep either breaking functionality or introducing a new process to those of us with muscle memory. Currently, I can’t tell if it’s a bug or a feature, but I can no longer see the progress bar on spending categories as I go. I also get an auto capitalization on the second word when hitting the space bar in a business name without that representing to me graphically. I can’t tell you how annoying that is that the app knows I’ve got a space and the next letter will be a cap but I the user don’t know that. Things like that have plagued this app over the last year or two. I’m starting to wonder at what point they’ll just hate the whole thing behind the monthly fee. You gotta make money, I get it; but honestly you could have just left the rest of us the version from 2 years ago with no further updates released and we’d all be fine..Version: 2022.09.01
✓ Every dollar Budget your moneyI was on board with app until after submitting my numbers I was asked for my Canadian banking information/ access card number and got a RED FLAG in my senior gut ? Scam to empty my account while pretending to help me budget my money? No no no bye.Version: 2024.01.16
✓ CrashCan use the app after the update..Version: 2022.06.17
✓ Could’ve Been GreatMy husband and I purchased this app to help keep us both on the same page about our budget, after ready Dave Ramsey’s books. At first it was great, just set the budget and drag and drop. Then our bank had an outage on the app, three months later our bank still has an outage. I’ve spoken with technical support for the last three months and they have no idea how long it will take to get the bank back. All the while the Mint app is connected to our bank, which is free. So I keep asking and keep getting the same “ we hope to have it fixed soon” message. I finally got so fed up I contacted iTunes to get a refund, but of course, we had canceled the subscription to not renew at the year mark, we couldn’t get any sort of refund. Which we didn’t know, because we followed the instructions from the every dollar company on how to get a refund. So now we are out WAY too much money for an app that literally doesn’t work, and the company has stated there is nothing they can do for us because we purchased the subscription through iTunes and not online. My suggestion, don’t waste your money. Find a different budgeting app that is more reliable or at least cheaper, because if you bank loses connection you won’t see a dime back, which to me seems cruelly ironic..Version: 2.12.4
✓ Way too expensiveGreat app but way to expensive for its purpose - almost $200 app to get out of debt and build wealth? Ramsey is always yelling about cutting subscription costs 🤷♀️.Version: 2021.10.11
✓ Paid subscription stopped workingConcept is great, visually appealing, easy to understand and use, and there’s a nice free version where you manually input your transactions. This honestly WAS a great budgeting app I’ve used with my spouse for several years until the PAID version just stopped working with my bank account for a month with no fix. There’s also no customer support number to call (can only submit an online request for call back) and for nearly the cost of a Netflix subscription, I expected better. There’s nothing like trying to budget when your primary means to do so stops working for a month or longer :( **UPDATE** I’d sent some emails and after just over a month the issues with my bank seem to have been resolved and works as advertised again for the paid version. In the meantime we tried some other budget apps but will continue to use EveryDollar as long as it works. If the App Staff are reading this, thanks and PLEASE work with your third party company repairing bank issues to shorten problem repair time..Version: 2.12.14
