User Reviews for Checkbook Wiz

Data Got lost after 4 years of being ok

UPDATE: Finally gave up on this app. No more support provided by the developer. Plus, they keep charging every six months with no improvements. Much better apps out there. One morning the app was working fine and then that afternoon I opened the app to find that my data was gone up through November of 2017. I tried to restore from the iCloud backup and the app just hung there. I wrote the developer using their website contact and it’s been a week without hearing from them. So many of my years of data are gone. Reconciling is taking me forever right now using my bank and credit card statements. Oh, AND connected to this recent problem, suddenly I’m seeing ads all over the app again. I paid for Checkbook Wiz Pro years ago to get rid of the ads. I mentioned it in my support request which has gone unanswered. Avoid this app and any others by this company.

Great replacement for iReconcile

As others have said was looking for a replacement for iReconcile which is no longer supported. This is an amazing app and well worth the $1.99. There's only two suggestions that would make it better. 1) Allow for account selection with the reports. I have multiple accounts setup and the reporting doesn't let me look at individual accounts, it just aggregates it all together. 2) Once you select a category for a payee, it should default to the last selection. The default is to other forcing you to recategorize every time you make a selection. Thanks for a wonderful app!! The new version category binding worked then it stopped. Not sure why!?

No longer free, very small amount of transactions unless you pay

I’ve used this app for years and even with the bugs that messed up account balances, removed transactions and caused errors when using certain categories, I still continued to use the app because I’ve been using it for so long and it was the closest free app I could find to an old checkbook app I loved that was no longer supported on the newer iOS at the time (very simplistic without a bunch of filler).They added ads where you have to wait before moving on, fine. But now with this new update, I’m unable to add any transactions because it says I have “-4964 transactions left”. I can watch a video for 50 transactions which I’ve done and I’m grateful for that but I will be looking for another app. I don’t mind paying but with the issues I’ve experienced with this app, I’d rather not. I will just keep it for historical purposes.

Love it!

This app is everything I’ve been looking for. Over the last few years I’ve tried out about 25 or so different apps. At one point I thought this one was messing up and even sent them an email. But I realized it was me and had to immediately let them know it was me that I messed up. Sorry guys🤪. Anyway, it has it all. Even a calendar section to keep track of spending on any particular day. I can finally quit looking for the right app because this one is it👍Update: Enjoying the ease of use and everything this app offers. Much like a regular check register with all kinds of different awesome benefits. It’s only gotten easier and more enjoyable being able to input purchases and income on the fly. That’s important when I forget about buying something and realize when I check the bank the next day that I don’t have as much in the bank as I thought. Hasn’t happened since I started using this app.

Great app except when it crashes

I have used this app for about 3 years. It is my favorite checkbook app and the most customizable. I can have multiple “accounts” and look at my total in months, quarters, or the year. My biggest complaint is this app has lost all my information 3 different times. It’s so frustrating and only once did I get it back (I bought the pro version). Starting over is awful and losing all my information is ridiculous. This last time it happened I started backing it up manually every day. I updated my phone with the IOS 13 and this app has been a little glitchy since then-it won’t let me add pictures and has crashed a couple times-and since the apps last update. So, overall love this app but get it together and stop losing all my info. Also the customer service is awful!

Still searching

I have a checkbook register app (Pocket Money 2) that I’ve used for years and really like, but the original developer passed away and the new one destroyed it by “updating” it into something nearly unusable. But I digress. I have several complaints about most of the checkbook apps now available. Icons - how many people, when we all used pen and paper registers, drew little pictures in them when they noted a category or named their bank? At least make them optional. If I use a category for groceries, I know what that means. I don’t need a picture of a shopping cart. Recurring entries - no app I’ve looked at allows customization. I receive SSA checks on the third Wednesday of every month. In apps other than PM2, I can only pick monthly. Third Wednesdays occur on various dates. Most calendar apps allow that kind of customization so i assume it can be done. Screen clutter - most apps have screens that are much too busy with graphics and unnecessary pictures. Simplicity is usually the most elegant. There are other things, but you get the picture. Developers should search the App Store to find apps that have the highest number of 5 star ratings and, without violating copyright laws, try to make something similar. Or look at the ones with the most 1 star ratings to see what people don’t like. End of rant. Thanks for reading. BYW, I only gave this app 1 star hoping people will read it. The app is maybe a 3 star.

I recommend this to everyone

Do you want to be on top of your finances? Track your everyday spending and what not? Then this app is for you. This app has tremendously helped me with managing my money. By just taking an hour every couple of weeks and entering all my bank transactions, I can see what I'm doing with my money. Especially since the app lays it out SO beautifully. It is so detailed and precise and I have never been in so much control of my money. I love the ease of use. I love the layout. I love how I can see where every penny has gone or come in from. There is a wonderful search bar too, in case you needed to look something up. You can look up by category, keyword, bank account, and more. It's so precise too. If you search "food", you can see all the times you spent money on food. And you can choose the time frame that the search uses. You can search just the month, or one day, or the whole year. And when you hit search it will bring up EVERYTHING related to what you put in there. It's a powerful app and I highly recommend it.

It does what I need it to do...

I have had this app for a couple of years now and I am pleased with what it does. It allows me to keep track of multiple accounts just like I would with an analog checkbook register with a whole host of features that help keep me organized. It is relatively bug free and with the exception of the ads it operates pretty smoothly (I can’t tell you why I have not purchased the upgrade yet but I most likely will now that I have shamed myself into it). I cannot speak to the more advanced functions like reports and such as I don’t use them. I highly recommend this app for someone wanting a good, complete and relatively simple way to track one’s bank and credit card accounts.UPDATE: So I upgraded and I’m so glad I did. Getting rid of the ads made a difference and the ability to print reports, compile data and print them is pretty nice. It’s not QuickBooks Pro but it does the trick for what I need. Still very happy with this app.

Nice program. Big flaw.

I’ve used this for almost two years. Simple and flexible, and just what I wanted: a check register that makes it easy to keep my accounts balanced. But…the recurring entries function has simply stopped working reliably. Some entries are duly entered into the register, then “rolled over” to the next month. Others are rolled over without ever being entered. For example, I have a regular monthly insurance payment. The app is set up to enter the payment into the register on the first of each month. Sometimes it does; sometimes it doesn’t. But either way, the list of recurring payments rolls on to the next month. So I’m scrambling to find the disparity between the bank’s records (which show the payment) and my own (which show the next payment will be recorded in October even though the September payment was never recorded). I hope that is reasonably clear. I’m bringing this up because I have contacted the designers twice but have never received a response. I did upgrade to the paid version this year, but probably will not renew.
