Know exactly what your Savings Bonds are worth. Series I, EE, and E, updated every month. No bank. No TreasuryDirect. No guesswork. Add your first bond in seconds.

Values update automatically every month. MyBonds features: • Series I, EE, and E valuations • Unlimited bonds and portfolios • Automatic monthly value updates • Correct valuation during a bond's holding period • Current Series I interest rate display • Standard paper bonds denominations • Custom investment amounts, just like TreasuryDirect • Printed reports via AirPrint • Secure PIN lock screen with industry-standard encryption • Dark mode support Organize your holdings your way.

Too simple, basic info not tracked
05/03/2020

Thought this app would at least be as good as a simple program I downloaded to my computer in 2015, but far from it. First, I was expecting a more thorough accounting of my bonds. I’m wondering why it doesn’t cover certain minimum information. Like a real inventory. Should allow entry of the bond’s Serial Number, along with interest rate and yield, interest amount and current value, next interest date and final maturity date. Second, even though “serial” was on a bar at the bottom of the screen, I could find no way to actually enter the serial number of each of my bonds. Why?Third, there seems to be no way to print out a listing of my bonds.Hopefully an upcoming update will improve this basic tracking information. For $2.99, I expected more.

Developer Response
Hello, thank you for your feedback! We're sorry you're not totally satisfied with your purchase. Please note that interest rate, interest amount, current value, next accrual, and final maturity are all tracked automatically by MyBonds - we do that work for you so that you don't have to type it all in. Also, we are unaware of any bug involving the input of a bond's Serial Number - you can touch the white text input box when editing a bond - but if you send details to us at support@permusoft.com, we will be happy to investigate for you. Printing bond inventory is a much requested feature, and we hope to make it available in a future release. Thanks for using MyBonds.

Permusoft is very responsive

After loading 86 EE and I bonds purchased between 1991 and 2007 in this app I got a chance to put it through its paces. It is a big improvement over the old, poorly supported US Treasury bond tracking website. I like the ability to load each individual bond's info once, and the tab on the bottom of each portfolio gives you the ability to rack and stack them in various ways. The printing function is also a big plus.An improvement request I sent to the developer was the ability to order by maturity date in each portfolio because I want to see at a glance when I should cash a bond. Also, on the first page I'd like to have the ability to arrange the portfolios manually instead of the haphazard way it appears now. I constructed my portfolios by each year of bond maturity so would like to see the several portfolio years displayed chronologically started from maturing next to maturing last. The developer answered my email quickly and I hope to see these added functions in future revisions.

Could be better

I mistakenly thought this App would be able to scan the bond to read the information, saving the hassle of manual data entry for hundreds of savings bonds. Why else would one want to do this calculation on a phone? Disappointed. Hope the developer can add the camera feature. it’s common in lots of apps now.

Just what I needed

I jumped on the I Bond train when rates hit 9.62% and found this app as a way to avoid logging into the clunky Treasury Direct page. I was disappointed though because the app didn’t show updated values for bonds in the initial 12 month holding period. So if you were buying new bonds each year the values in this app would literally never be correct. I sent feedback to the developer and just noticed they corrected this “value during holding period” issue. I can’t say whether it was my feedback that prompted the update but I’m thrilled either way. 5/5 stars!
