Balance: Net Worth & Budget

Updated review.. it’s been months later and they haven’t bothered to fix the major bugs introduced.. so I’m not too happy. I really thought they would fix those asap. In its current state I prefer the previous version. I was very glad to see that the app is still being developed and received a major update! However I’m currently seeing some bugs and omissions from today’s update that I hope will be fixed soon. For one, there’s no Total chart?? The chart showing total account values seems to have disappeared. Also if I go back to previous months at some points the values go out of wack. The change amounts reported are not accurate anymore for those months. They don’t add up from month to month and show weird changes. Also the changelog mentions a new biometric protection feature but I’m not seeing that option anywhere in the settings? I’m otherwise happy with the changes thanks for the update but please fix the issues. 7/25: hotfix update didn’t resolve any of these issues

I deeply appreciate that this app is designed for Privacy and Simplicity. When I see that there is an app that does not sell my Personal Data, I download and use the app and delete the other app (even if it’s more popular) so that the private app is my default app to use. Many Apple users know that privacy is a human right not to be infringed upon unnecessarily. There is also Good Business/Profit in Privacy (& Simplicity) because there is a segment of the population that refuses to sell their Privacy to major corporations. There is a market here, and as long as it is emphasized, just like Apple does (Privacy & Security), I can see lots of potential for this app as an alternative to most apps that don’t respect privacy (and aren’t simple and user friendly).

This app does exactly what I need. It allows me to track my cash flow at the end of the month. I am able to track my “emergency fund”, “my stock and mutual fund balance, my retirement balances and even my net worth. I entered my balances going back 5 years by just entering my balance in January and July of each year, which gives me a history of how I am doing.
