Chronicle - Bill Organizer 4+

Just Simple to Use - Great!

I have used multiple payment and reminder apps, but there were always features missing that made it difficult to stay abreast of my bills. Most of the times the app would not sync with my bank account making me do double duty by checking each bill for currency. I decided to no longer use bill pay apps and look for the best bill management app available. I found one with Chronicle! Here are a few helpful features I love: 1. Persistent and timely reminders 2. Easy to use with multiple settings for my needs 3. I can see my forecast for the next month 4. The monthly overview helps me view and stay on top of upcoming bills in one place. 5. Syncs with my calendar for additional reminders 6. Payment history with inserted ID 7. Easy to make changes and updates 8. Automatic payments can be set to login payments without me having to do it manually. 9. Insert biller url in the app. A quick click takes me directly to biller website to make a payment. Thank you for this app. I very enthusiastically recommend it for those who want to stay on top of their bills and budget.

Love this app! It is perfect for brains like mine!

Update as of 2021: Notifications for any bills created before this year seem to no longer provide notifications?

Here is the thing...I am impatient with bells and whistles. I like things to look nice, but when something starts getting multiple moving parts that are necessary in order to have the basic function that I need, I get annoyed. I tried so many financial apps before Chronicle. All I wanted was to enter the date bills are due, be reminded when they are, and keep a logical historical record of when they were paid and how much was paid. Mint, Quickbooks, Microsoft Money, etc., etc. all are just too much for my purposes. And, having to connect my bank account to an app, especially to some of the apps whose developers I have never heard of, is NOT ok. That is never going to happen. So, Chronicle is easy to look at, simple enough to navigate, backs itself up like apps should (many do not), and keeps me on schedule for monitoring both my and my elderly mom's bills. I can even look at just her bills or my bills thanks to tags. This app is perfect. If features are added in the future, maybe those would be a great addition, but for now, I am a totally satisfied customer. The customer service has been top-notch every time I had a question as well. How many apps can boast about those last two items with their customers?

Sorry to hear about the trouble you are having with notifications. They should certainly still be working. If you're still seeing trouble, please contact us at support@littlefin.com so we can sort out what's going wrong!

Extremely helpful

I’ve been using Chronicle for several years now and have found it extremely helpful for managing upcoming bills. My gratitude for Chronicle increased recently when my son moved out of the house and was trying to juggle due dates for all his new bills (like apartment rent, car taxes, etc.). He was struggling to manage his bills across multiple apps and I told him about having Chronicle to consolidate and categorize expenses, alerting him to upcoming bills and keeping current with payments. Thank you for a great app that’s simple, intuitive, and powerful.

**My one suggestion for an upcoming version would be a calculator function within Chronicle. It would be useful for totaling multiple bills when I need to transfer sufficient funds between accounts (e.g. when I have 4 bills coming due on a certain date and need to calculate the total amount that I need to move between accounts or banks).
