Accounts 2 Checkbook 4+

I tried several of the other similar apps and eventually settled on the original “Accounts”. I had compared it with the others and found it to be the most useful. Then switched to “Accounts 2” when it became available.
It’s easy to list several active “accounts”. You can track bank accounts as well as ongoing expenses for such things as auto, home, donations, loans etc. Also track income and expenses with convenient reports generated graphically for any or all accounts. It is easy to track both categories month to month. A “recurring” feature allows you to easily enter and track income and expenses. You set each according to your needs: monthly, 3 months, 6 months, yearly etc. You simply choose the income or expense, the dollar amount and finally the date of entry. The app automatically enters it in the correct account. You can set up “recurring” to help you keep track of when a bill is due. You enter your monthly bills under “monthly” and for each one you can identify a payment amount and due date. Each bill automatically appears in the correct account, in my case it’s one of my checking “accounts”. You can use a date prior to the due date. Then when that bill appears under the “account” you know it’s time to pay it. Simply allow sufficient time for it to be received “on time”.

With two of us using debit cards on our joint account, as well as having all our bills automatically paid electronically, and online shopping, it was becoming a harrowing experience (not to mention how much time it took) for us on checkbook-balancing day. But with conscientious use of this app, religious collection of receipts deposited in only one location immediately upon returning home, and only a few minutes to compare the app with a printout of our bank’s recorded transactions twice a week, we no longer have to worry about having “enough left in the account” to pay a forgotten annual bill!

This app allows us to monitor transactions in a savings account, our joint checking account, and a bill-paying account. All I have to do is make sure I manually record every transaction in the app, just like I would a paper checkbook register, but I DON’T HAVE TO DO THE MATH!!!🥰 I can add & subtract alright, but don’t expect me to even say 2 + 2 = 4 if I’m trying to find the source of a discrepancy!

I am so pleased with this app! Did I mention how affordable it is? FREE! So, THANK YOU to the developers! Please,

With everything being done electronically these days, I needed a way to keep track of my bank account. I’ve used other “check book” registers but after awhile they all go away. So I took a chance on this one and purchased it. It does everything I need it to do and more. I’m not worried about doing a budget on here but I like the way it shows you how much you spend in each category (as long as you enter that info). I also love the ease of quickly entering the data. Once you enter a name and a category, it remembers that info for next time. As soon as you start to enter a name, it shows you the list of names beginning with that letter, tap the one you want and it adds the category in for you. All you have to do is enter the amount. Great for when you are on the road and need to enter a purchase quickly.

There are a couple of features I would like to see. 1) a way to be able to sort, either by amount, date or by name. 2) a search feature.

Overall it more than meets my needs.
