PocketGuard Budget, Bill, Debt - Latest Quality Issues

Sudden Subscription Change
With two days notice, the switched from having a free version, to suddenly all my financial data being hidden behind a paywall and limited responses to my questions. As a company whose mission is to help individuals gain control over their finances, they really should take the own advice. Be wary of sudden changes that will cost you hundreds of dollars.

Never worked with my BMO bank.
I've been struggling with this for months, hoping the developer would fix the issues, but it just won't sync correctly with my bank—constantly displaying errors. The features seem promising, but if the core function of syncing transactions doesn't work, then what good are the other nice features? I even double-checked everything with my bank. To handle our finances, we've switched to another app that my wife and I can both use. I had hoped this would be a backup solution for tracking our expenses, but unfortunately, it just didn't pan out.

Made me pay and now won’t open
Was looking forward to using but now the app won't open and keeps directing me to the AppStore to update my app but there's nothing available to upgrade to

SAVE YOUR MONEY - Scam, dont buy it. Works great until the free version runs out and you pay for premium. Had to contact support multiple times about syncing issues. They fix it for a week and then its back. Never had such a bad experience with an app before. Absolutely worthless.

Scam!! It worked well during the free trial, Then they had connection issues with my bank (Td canada trust). Taking to support about the issue and quick responses back and forth. The moment I mention a refund for my yearly subscription they don't reply. I put in another ticket about the refund and no one answers. Very disappointed that it worked for the free trial period and then not at all. Beware of this scam.

Slow sync with real-time transactions. I would give it 5 stars, but because a lot of my transactions stay pending for a couple of days, or even longer for some, I'm only giving it a 4 star rating

PocketGuard Budget, Bill, Debt - Product Description
PG - PocketGuard is a free budgeting app for people who want to be on top of their money. Personal finance made simple by smart algorithms, which means budgeting with PocketGuard is so easy that you don't have to spend your entire life crunching numbers. We take care of all the routines like expense tracking and bill monitoring so you can clearly focus on money management operations.

Always know what's in your pocket!
Basically, a budget is a difference between income and expenses. If it's positive - you're doing well. In any other case, the budget is unbalanced and needs attention. This is where the "IN MY POCKET" feature takes action. How much disposable income do you have after paying your bills, saving for your goals, and setting aside enough money for needs and wants? PocketGuard budgeting app does those calculations for you! Always know the actual safe-to-spend amount so you can fit your monthly budget.  

Comprehensive analytics!
Budget and expense tracking are just a part of the story. If you wanna do money management the right way you need to learn from the data you track. PocketGuard free budgeting app provides you with various reports to let you see personal finances from different angles. Learn about your spending habits, make necessary adjustments, optimize your monthly budget.

Bill tracker and subscription manager!
You can use PocketGuard as a bill organizer. Once you connect bank accounts the app starts working as a finance tracker. All your bills and subscriptions will be identified automatically and included in your monthly budget. The bill organizer will help you never miss the due date again.

Do you want to lower your bills? Of course, you do! PocketGuard bill organizer gives you an easy way to negotiate better rates with your provider. So you can optimize your budget by cutting costs on services you use. PocketGuard subscription manager will help you to find subscriptions you might have forgotten about. This is another money management trick - stop paying for services you no longer need.  

Set and reach your financial goals!
Goals are a key concept of budgeting. As was mentioned before, expense tracking is just a part of the story. Personal finance is made of goals. Let's say you want to spend less on shopping or to save more for vacation. These are financial goals. PocketGuard budget app gives you all the necessary tools to set them properly.

Set up your debt-payoff plan!
Nobody's perfect and almost anyone has debt to pay off. The question is: do you have a plan? Connect all your credit and loan accounts and we'll show you the way to a debt-free future. Our smart algorithm calculates the most profitable debt repayment strategy so you'll save hundreds or even thousands by paying less in interest!

BANK-LEVEL SECURITY
We use the same 256-bit SSL encryption as all major banks to ensure your sensitive information is safe and sound. The PocketGuard app also uses PIN code and biometrics, like Touch ID & Face ID, as an additional security layer.
