Merge - Couple Organizer

I love the idea behind this app and my wife and I were super excited to start using it, I was full intending on getting the year subscription if it lived up to what it said it could do. At first it seemed great, but then I went to add our monthly bills into it and it won’t allow me to add the payments under “both”, I just could do it under only me or only my wife. Not a huge deal, I figured maybe I was doing something wrong or it was a bug that could be fixed. But when I clicked on Contact Support, it wouldn’t do anything, as if the link was dead. I then went to the App Store to try and find a way to contact, and it took me to their website, which does not have a way of contacting, which was a bit frustrating. I am hoping with this 1 Star review I will be given a way to contact support, that way these issues, as well as with any future issues that may come up, I can actually get them resolved. If I can get this resolved and have an actual way of contacting support, I will gladly change to 5 stars. I understand glitches happen, but being able to contact support to notify of issues and get them resolved would be great.

I think this app is easier to use than some reviewers are giving it credit for. When I got my first IPhone I didn’t know how to do anything either, but it quickly became second nature. I think the learning curve here is pretty short. Also have to give the developers credit for their considerate responses and efforts to improve. This is my first review and I’m only really leaving it because I know it will be considered by the devs. The app is less than a year old, so you’re probably gonna hit a bug here and there, but I’ve also only had the app a day and there’s already been an update released. Finding it very useful so far- keep up the great work! I agree with the requests to be able to show all chores, and edit the texts of list items- but I know you’re working on that. One other very helpful feature for us would be to add a “calendar” tab. We each have weekly time commitments that sometimes change days, and it would be GREAT to be able to peek at the app and see your partner’s weekly schedule. Nothing fancy, just to mark “I’ll be at _______ on ____day between ___am and ___pm”. Much easier than messing around with google calendar, or other such things. Maybe color coded by partner to distinguish the entries? Just a thought!

UPDATE: Sometimes knowing how to do something is half the battle. The response I received after my first review was not only helpful but surprising. I never expected to receive a response from the developer. And their response was respectful and courteous. My review probably did not come across as such. All that being said I am thankful for their advice on how to achieve what I was trying to do. I do look forward to future updates. OLD REVIEW: (I left my original review so that you all can see the difference in communication. I am impressed with their response. ) It would be nice to either edit or delete things added to the list. I just downloaded this app today and so far it is cumbersome because as I add something I realize I forgot to add certain information like recurrence or when to expect but I cannot edit it or delete it. So far I just tap it complete then recreate it, which is not acceptable I think. You really should be able to edit and delete what you’ve added to any of the lists.
